I know old right there was a lady I worked with that had a 100 yr old home too. We are still updating last things to do new siding, a new kitchen and new carpet. By the time that happens all the other stuff will be ready to be updated again. It would be okay if hubby was a handy man but instead he is tech savvy. We had a brand new home prior to this but wanted a one level home on a dead end street so we bought this was the best we could find at the time when we sold are other place. Oh well can not win them all... LOL
