165: Two Deadlines and a Baby
In this episode of True Tales From Old Houses , Daniel dives into the deeply satisfying experience of helping friends prepare their home for a new baby. Left unsupervised while his friends were at the hospital, Daniel organized the house with gusto—leaving the new parents a little more surprised than planned. He reflects on what worked, what didn't, and why the whole experience might just turn into a book someday. Then, Stacy talks about gearing up for the big move, including renting a POD, packing up her historic house, and tackling the project mostly on her own. It's a lively conversation about organized chaos, hard deadlines, and the universal truth that babies don't care about your to-do list.
