Welcome back!!
I missed you and was a little worried, too!
I would use the coops in the barn since they are there and the weather is getting warm. Save building projects until the house is done for sure!
When we bought our house we had a room the same color yellow as your living room. OUCH!
And another that was painted black
on the carpet & tobacco stains. Could be worse though. I house I lived in once had bloodstains on the wall where someone had been back-handed into it
That will be such a lovely place and already has soooo much character. I'd definitely have a home inspector go over it carefully. You don't need any more surprises. Especially dangerous ones like bad wiring and such! Or walls falling in because the place wasn't vented properly (that bathroom worries me).
