I know you're glad to have all that behind you. I wouldn't have the energy or stamina to do what you and your wife have done. I probably could have handled it 20 years ago, but not now. My house is old, tired and outdated but it has great bones. Most of what needs to be updated, repaired, and replaced is cosmetic... but there's a LOT that needs to be done in every room of the house. It won't happen in my lifetime.
