Stay? Sell?





We're so fortunate to live in a wonderful neighborhood with incredible privacy, safe streets, and good neighbors. But, our home was built in the late 80's and we've spent our 15 years here focusing on paying our mortgage. Besides, with three kids, two dogs, and everyone's friends over, it just seemed to make sense to let our home be well-lived/loved. So we put our own design sensibilities aside and now we're living in a time warp. Now that we can see the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel, we're looking forward to couple-hood again. Part of that means deciding where and how to live as a couple - it's a remix of sorts, both personally and physically. And another part means deciding whether I have the commitment and talent to take on some major projects like the ones I've seen on so many blogs like My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia, Better After, and Isabella & Max Rooms.

In creating our remix, I've been so inspired and encouraged by the many blogs by women all around the country. What incredible talent and warmth!

Tomorrow, I'll be working on remixing some horrible chairs that I picked up at a consignment shop. I'm still deciding what to do with them, but first, I have to rip off all that fabric!
