Best workout in a while – taking down parts of well-established buckthorn *trees* using a hatchet. I recommend a soundtrack of late-80s punk, or the NPR podcasts I was actually listening to.

I bought a 110-year-old house with some nice architectural accents, many needed cosmetic upgrades, updated plumbing, partly updated electrical, and dreams of fixing things up whilst whistling jauntily on the bright days of summer.
Needless to say I underestimated everything.
This blog is a chronicle (of sorts - I'm notoriously bad at keeping up with things like this over long stretches) of the relationship between me, my house, my tools, and the wealth of knowledge on houses that can be obtained from friends, relatives, and the local library. Projects and problems, and problems with projects, will be described. Options will be discussed. Progress may even be made.
As of this moment, the house is still standing.
