   It takes a lot of “baby steps” to make it around your house. You are doing a great job. You should be proud.

    Does this mean the painting is almost done!?

      How I wish, Karyn! How I wish!

      While the south second floor will soon be done, the first, third, and fourth south floors still need to be painted. As well as the second floor of the east facade.

    The before and after photos of the south face are going to be sooooo satisfying. I am particular excited to see the porch sweep restored. What a lovely part of the house.
