      Consumerism, consumption, and cheap has been the new sheriff in town (for decades now). I'll do my best to get my friends to jump on the "slow down" train. But I think the fact that only around 50% of people returned to office post work-from- home life gives me hope. The 9-5 rat race is OUT. Enjoying life, family, friends, and a healthy work life balance is IN. Thank GOD. Money isn't everything. I think my generation is fully happy to embrace a different way of living. We're getting tired of the work, work, work for the big man, living a life of anxiety, and more or less always being on call due to cell phones and new technology way of living. It has been shoved down our throats and utterly unnecessarily so. I mean, for what? To pay off our student loan debt that we'll have years to come? Yeah, over that lie.
      Whoops went on a rant. Sorry about that.
      Anyway, the Winchester mansion has the corner dust catchers, too.! So cool!

    That's how we got our 1840's Italianete with an 1880's Victorian porch. We bought it 16 years ago because it needed lots of work at a great price of $99,700. We renovated the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room downstairs before we moved in. Then 10 years ago we renovated the upstairs bathroom. Now we're doing foundation, new duct work, and restoring the original porch. There is lots more to do but we're doing it as we have the cash to. Hopefully in a year we'll be able to replace the 2nd furnace, hot water heater, and reglaze the original windows.

      My hubby and I have been working on our 1916 farmhouse since we bought her in 1993. We also have been doing it as we have had the money and the time. Ours needed so much work. It scared everyone from buying it. Even our realtor! He tried to talk us out of buying it. But I love our home way out in the country. And I know the house picked us. She knew we would make her beautiful. I don't think she has ever looked as good as she does now. Not even when she was first built. As she was a working farmhouse way out in the country. No roads in to our valley till the mid 1950's. No electricity or plumbing till then either.

    My fiancé and I recently purchased a Victorian home (1891) in the little village of New Hamburg in Ontario, Canada. It is probably ~90% original (has new windows and some other upgrades), and our stove is even a replica of an old wood burning stove (with a matching fridge). It's quirky (e.g., dipping floors and uneven walls), but it's beautiful :D. I will make a video one day and post it :). I love watching these videos!

    All of that unpainted wood is a thrill to see! Imagine the hundreds of hours it would take to strip it all if it was painted. >:0 Hopefully, by Laine and Kevin featuring it here, true restoration folk will take over and bring it back to it's original splendor. Those little extra room spaces on the second floor are intriguing. I wonder if there was a nursery, or a maid's room. The possibilities are endless! Viking here too...Great-Grandmother born in Norway and Great-Grandfather's family from Denmark. They met in Wisconsin. I have their original fancy 1883 wedding certificate.
