Welcome to Jackson, Michigan!
Folksy Lady's slice of the WWW
This site is for anyone who wishes to find out more about the quiet small city of Jackson, Michigan or to see what my really old 1895 folk Victorian-style home looks like. I also have a weblog or "blog" that is updated fairly regularly and includes much about the goings-on in Jackson, in my life, and the house.

My Old House Renovation Story
I bought an old circa 1895 folk Victorian-style house here in Jackson in mid-2005. It needed a major over-haul, which it got in early 2008, but it still requires plenty of work. The remaining work is not as big ticket as the renovation, but all of the thousands add up quickly, so work is slow in coming. You can read about my progress at my blog titled "Big Ideas -- Little Money". You can also tour the house via Flickr, room by room, and watch the transformation. If there is anything you can say about me, it's that I'm always working on something.
