When you're standing in one of the three rooms which are going to combine to be our living room, you are most definitely in the 1970's. The wall paper is faded orange but the flowers are defiantly not fading despite the passing of time.
When you climb upstairs to the third and fourth floors, you go back in time. Way back. The house was built in 1759 and nobody's ever really done anything to those floors. Ben's changing that, though, as he's spent the last couple of weekends tearing up the floor, and the stuff that goes beneath.
That means that when you stand on the third floor you can see through the fourth floor to the roof. That's kinda an odd feeling... particularly when you know that we're changing the roof, too!
The funny thing is that it's a great experience to be in the midst of all this dirt and dust because you really have the impression that you're changing something important.
Thankfully, when we come home we can cook using vegetables from the veggie box that our (excellent) neighbours deliver each Friday. Indeed, that's maybe where we find the energy to keep up with quite so much time traveling!
Hope you're all doing well despite the dirt and dust of life!
hugs,
