I use...Me too, but I no longer find it complicated. I used to feel very lonely though, searching for affordable things, having to touch and smell (!) everything before deciding. When my husband and I met, we gave away almost everything from our past, and started our serch for common things. We have bought nothing new, nearly everything has been found somewhere and repared. Every little thing has a story to tell, and most of our furniture's got names. <br /><br />I'd love to visit your house, as I am sure I would have loved it there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508235741976693989.post-23329304485231313542011-10-09T12:49:04.785-04:002011-10-09T12:49:04.785-04:00many people may think that my house looks unkempt....many people may think that my house looks unkempt. but it doesn't to me. to me it is cozy and real and warm and forever interesting. and although i feel that new, sleek, design store decor can feel cold and stiff, i understand it can also be clean and fresh and super functional. i think finding a place where we are comfortable with our surroundings and that they are natural to us, is part of finding a place of contentment and happiness.chasing lightning bugshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09827256072196695717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508235741976693989.post-59111838126316814462011-10-09T10:31:51.897-04:002011-10-09T10:31:51.897-04:00I love your attitude and admire your style. When I...I love your attitude and admire your style. When I am in Italy I delight in the aged crumbling terracotta pots overflowing with geraniums, and window-shutters which have been neglected for years with peeling paint; somehow there in the sunshine it looks perfect. If I do that at my own home, it just looks shabby but not chic - I don't know why that is?Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508235741976693989.post-82599638014148028172011-10-09T06:17:46.920-04:002011-10-09T06:17:46.920-04:00My soul sings to read this.
