How do you update a marshmallow roasting, eviction notice burning hole in your living room wall?  A fresh coat of white paint does the trick!

We haven't even moved in yet and Casa Amellia Bedelia is causing a ruckus.    Showed up to let the painters in and was welcomed by a water main break with water gushing down the street.   After a few very DEEP breaths I called the city and they thankfully repaired it saying it was due to there error on a prior repair.  I am sad to think about all the water loss in the meantime but happy to spend these repair funds on pretty things needed in the house (like a new kitchen).  I will take extra

Well it's official y'all!   We just bought this pretty little old lady (circa 1936) with all her glorious layers of wall paper and strange smells.  She shall be named after my mother's middle name "Amellia"... not sure why this feels like it should be her name...   We love her already and think she is a tough cookie to still be standing pretty and strong after all she must have been through through the years.  Oh!... I guess that's why I named her after my mamma :)!  Let the adventure begin!
