Her heart pounded as she approached the familiar address. She was here, finally. The house stood, but it was about to change. She wasn't one for sentimentality. But she had a job to do.

She opened the door, and the air hit her with a rush of familiarity. She was on a mission. This was a place with a long, interesting history. She began the day with a smile and a determination.

She walked through the halls, documenting the state of the house. Her mind was racing with ideas, thoughts and planning. She took notes, snapping photos, and felt her excitement build. She felt she was finally able to achieve her dreams.
