I am in the news! (You can too!)

Improvements!

The new staircase! Finally! I can now run upstairs and downstairs without risking to fall on my nose! This is indeed some great improvement!
So I will dash off to Visby for some "paint-over" with a white, transparent color today. I was told yesterday that some of the steps were made of wood produced on this farm since the old owner had a bit of a lumberyard (in this barn below - view from my bathroom window) and had equipment to plane the boards himself from trees of this very ground .This is quite a good feeling to know when you climb the stairs to your cosy bedroom on second floor.

The old "easy-to-fall-on-the-nose" staircase...How happy I am to get rid of you! You filled your function over 100 years now. So take a break!
