fingers crossed..candles blazing..positive, positive, positive

i didn't sleep last night or the night before and i always sleep.....you could probably carry my mattress out the door, throw it on the roof of your VW bug, drive me to LA and back and i would still be sleeping.

we have been looking at real estate for many months now, with many ups and downs...getting attached and getting outbid. the SF market is tough when your regulars like us'ns.

well, our agent emailed a few days ago and i had to leave work at 5pm (early) to get the 1st or 2nd viewing of this special home.

you would all love it. built in 1913, in the same family the whole time, all original details in tact...including a second pantry with the original metal mesh pie rack shelving and a split back door (you can open the top half only) and so many more cherished tid bits.

here's to hoping its our time to own a piece of the pie....fingers crossed.

    My fingers are crossed for you. It looks lovely.

    Do you mean a "dutch" door? That's what they used to call the find that opened top only or both if latched together.
