I have a 100 year plus home; was an old farm house and has a zillion things still yet to be fixed on it.
Well, we converted a back storage room to our smoking room. Put a space heater and a couch, a rug, some lighting and tables and it is ready to go.
Sitting out in it tonight, smoking a nub 464 Cameroon to christen it. A bit on the chilly side, still needs three new windows, but it is mine!
Pretty excited to have a new space, lol

Space heater is cranking at 70, iheart radio is playing, and I am about to light up an illusion fume d'amour Lagunas.

That looks great! Is it detached or attached to the house. And, if it's attached do you have to go outside to get into it or is there an entry door from the main living space?0

So near as I can tell, the fella who added on the garage back in '63, also closed in a porch. I am guesstimating on the date, but going off names/dates/handprints in various cement on the property.
Adjacent to the smoking area, there is an approximately 12' section of yard before the neighbors property. It is north facing, grass doesn't grow there, and it is pretty much a useless bit of dirt. The former storage room has an old sliding glass door that we are thinking of swapping a set of French doors on, then somehow configuring that useless 12' dirt patch into an outside patio/breakfast nook, prolly gonna do crushed gravel as pavers are hella expensive, but the space can really shine if we put s little elbow grease to it.
Amazing what clearing out a bunch of old crap that we never used anyway can do. Immediate space!“There’ll be two dates on your tombstone and all your friends will read ’em but all that’s gonna matter is that little dash between ’em.” -Kevin Welch4 -

I can definitely tell you there is truth in that. My house just had its 188th birthday.jgibv said:lookin' good jay! nice little set up you got there, sure beats being outside freezing your a$$ off!

Tons of work, but its cool to think about how my house was already 30 years old and someone was smoking a cigar in the parlor wondering about whether the new guy, Abe Lincoln, would be able to straighten this country out.

I've spent all day putting down new flooring in our master bedroom.
It would have taken half the time normally. LOL!
Now that most of it is down, I found out that the "quality" flooring we paid extra for, is crap. You know, the salesman told us how well it holds up and all. (He's a liar, imagine that.)
I could have bought better flooring for less.
