The fun starts now. I have plenty of ideas that herself is probably going to balk at, but once I have a decent couch to plant my ass on and a room for my records, I'm happy.
The trick is to plan the lot out even if you cant afford it so everything you do is working towards the bigger picture and you don't end up doing abortive works that will cost you.
The 'room' for the records will be the attic... next to yourself
