This Nearly 200-Year-Old Grandview Heights Estate Is A Charmer 🏡

Happy Tuesday! Chelsea here.

In 1833, Columbus looked a lot different. The population was less than 3,000, the city was still in its infancy and they were dealing with a cholera outbreak. But one thing that is still the same as it was in 1833 is this gorgeous house on Grandview Ave. We don't have as many historic properties in this city as we should, but the ones that remain are truly gems. If you're in the market for a million-dollar dream home with some gorgeous craftsmanship, look no further.

Trainwreck 💥

I have to admit that I feel like I'm having constant brain fog during the pandemic, which is making me mostly want to watch trash tv and read very easy things. Perhaps you have felt this way at times! If so, the sage of Dublin mother Myka Stauffer might be just the thing - and it's mostly resolved ... sort of, so you won't be left wondering what happens next. This is an enraging story, so proceed only if you feel ok having some non-pandemic-related anger on this Tuesday morning.
