Essential Old-House Equipment

People who live in older homes immediately understand the significance of having these two items on hand when one is rearranging the furniture.



The floors in this old place of ours are anything but level.  In 160+ years since it was built, stuff has settled.  All it takes to deal with this is a quick check with the level, and a shim or two to set things to rights.

*************************
I mention this because I have been on a tear since late last week.  I am fed up with the clutter and crap that has accumulated in our living room, and I am determined to do something about it.  I have rearranged some furniture, sorted through piles and boxes, and have already made two trips to the charity store.  Lots more is still left to do, but I can see progress ... and progress fuels motivation.  We will see how long this spell lasts.
