I am home recouping from surgery and have bought a lot of crap to make hooked rugs and punch needle embroidery.....and let's not tell the husband unit how much quilt fabric has been purchased over the last few days he already calls my craft room a craft store

Pic of quilts and pillows looks lovely, appears you have enough to keep you busy for quite some time. Don't know if I should say hope you feel better soon or not. LOL (I do hope you feel better)

It was a real house, just built in another location, then the house was purchased, but not the land, the house then had to be moved to a location that the new house owner owned. This happens fairly regularly in my part of the country.

There's a TV show called "Big Moves" that is all house moves like this one.
They had to cut it off of the foundation, jack it up, pull it onto some beams the drive the trailer underneath and lower the house.
I'll load another video onto YouTube. Sadly, I only got to see them get as far as it being pulled onto the beams because I had to leave for work.

Oh my gosh, that is some beautiful organizing right there. I don’t even do quilting stuff and I want to hang out in your craft store haha!
I can’t remember if you mentioned a surgery before, but get well soon.

Well yea but.. manufactured homes ARE real houses lol. I know they can differ in quality but I’m not talking about a motorhome or something on wheels.
These types of manufactured homes.. or “houses that are moved?”... are what we’re talking about, right?

A manufactured house is built and assembled inside of a large building and then moved to its site. A "real" house is stick built on site.

Wow! Just wow! And you've got a great excuse to relax and craft your little heart out. Hope you feel better soon though!

Oh my...I got teary eyed! How neat is this!
Were you and your friend just standing on the side of the road?
I LOVE the corner window!

Yup. We had lounge chairs and coffee. Got a lot of funny looks from people driving by!

Good night all, work tomorrow, I will miss you all until tomorrow night when I will be 100 pages behind

As if you need to be old to know how houses work..?

No, it is not how I was thinking.
I wonder how they raise them up, there’s no way you could raise a modern built house up like that.

You sure can. That's exactly the type of house I moved.
