a little HOME work

I had offered to host Book Club in March, and I happened to make some curtain decisions just in time to hang them for it! I think I was putting off hanging curtains in my pout of "Why bother, when we'll probably just move again once I get settled!" (I get pretty pouty when my plans have to change, but I'm trying to grow out of that!).  There is so much about our new area to love though (mostly people), that I am finding myself willing to love everything and everyone again, even at the risk of having to let go.  These ties that make goodbyes so awful really are the joy of life, and I'm SO grateful for how many amazing people have blessed my life in EVERY place and time I've lived.  I feel SO, SO blessed, and if anything, should be RUSHING to build relationships so as not to waste a minute that could be spent learning and loving that much more.  (so much philosophy out of curtains!) I also set up the new closet in our front music room, freshened up the kid's pic's & decorated our little half bath with some framed pages that came out of a DARLING book Mom had as a little girl!

Later, we spruced up Anne & Lucy's room, finally hanging up curtains and their canopy :)
