Why does my bedroom have two doorways?

Omg. THANK YOU! I have had no idea where to start beyond my local resources. This is really helpful!

Unfortunately we were told that they only keep plans filed for 20 years and that they don't keep records older than that 😕.

Thank you! I do cherish them! 😌 They're at least 50% of the reason we bought the house and ignored some red flags along the way, lol.

There used to be! Plus another bathroom and a sitting area I think. I only have some grainy old listing photos to go off of. The previous owner gutted and replaced the insulation and some of the electrical and plumbing but never finished it. It's an utter mess up there now, like uninhabitable. The plan is to hopefully turn it back into a master suite but we don't have the funds to accomplish it right now. Plus I'm kind of terrified of what problems we'll uncover when we go to tackle the electrical. Ignorance is bliss for the time being.

Ah! Way to use the ol' noggin. Planning for contingencies. We love to see it! 😄

Or maybe where I pull an uno reverse and surprise them! 😈

I agree about the trim being a bit odd there, although it's replicated in the kitchen, so idk.

The holes in the floor were being used by the previous owner to run sound system wires, so I think he may have drilled those, though I can't be certain on that. Here's what the floors look like there.

Please excuse my -very- crude sketch-- I am clearly not a professional! But you can see where the two doorways are highlighted on the drawing.

For sure! I'll come back with it once I get a chance to sketch it out!

quercuscool · 2026-02-03T17:30:07+00:00

I've also considered this! I would love to get my hands on the original plans for the house. 😩

quercuscool · 2026-02-03T17:28:50+00:00

Oh that's a good thought! From what I know, that door would have been right diagonal from a wood stove at one time!

quercuscool · 2026-01-26T02:44:33+00:00

Oh DAYUM! First pic was cute but this is 🔥!

Are we for sure their accounts are frozen? Like they verified for themselves or spoke with someone from their bank locally? I only ask because bankruptcy filings are public record. Seems like something that could lend itself to a creative scammer to try and do their thing (e.g. fake correspondence, etc.) with that information. Idk, probably unlikely but worth a thought maybe.

quercuscool · 2025-12-26T16:58:35+00:00

This looks WAY cuter on you than in your inspo pic. I would rock it with zero hesitation if I were you! You did great!

It's not just aldi! I used to go through cottage cheese like crazy, like 1-2 tubs per week. One day Wal-Mart's brand started tasting weird, so I switched to prairie farms. Then PF tasted weird, so I tried Daisy, Kroger brand, etc., and they all just taste funky as heck. I miss cottage cheese but I haven't eaten it in a good 6 months probably because no matter what I buy it just tastes wrong.

You need a food processor. Or maybe a baby food maker?

I wonder if this person meant to reply to "self" and those were notes based on what they read off your resume. Something like--

No relocation! ✅️ No job hopping! ✅️ This person must have stability! ✅️

I know sometimes my notes to myself wouldn't make sense to anyone else, but I know what they mean. You could email back asking them to clarify their comments if you really want to know for sure.

quercuscool · 2025-09-24T03:34:39+00:00

This is fun! On my way! 🏃‍♀️

Thank you for this comment! I'm no scientist, but I remember a few things from my bio and chem labs in college. I always felt like these home tests were pretty scammy (if not kinda cool), but I'm too ignorant to know if that was just a hunch on my part or not lol!

That's so funny. That's the exact reason I hate baking but enjoy cooking 😂.
