Have you ever come to that place living
in your home where the furniture has moved full circle through the house?
We have a certain cabinet that came
full circle today. It’s more tattered
than when we started out in this house.
The doors are gone (broken long ago by a child). There is handwriting on the drawer (a
combination from both children).
But here it is, back in this room.
I do wish we still had the doors. It helps to hide the junk…
On Friday, I approached Billy with the
idea that we might want to consider shuffling around some of our rooms. We had one room that was completely unusable
because it was so full of stuff. And the
tv in our family room has been driving me crazy. You can hear it in the whole house. We have a small house. I feel like I am constantly yelling, turn it down!
I just wanted to talk about some ideas,
I didn’t expect things to get completely shuffled around so quickly. He came home tonight wanting to move
furniture around…because any type of home improvement project should start on
Sunday night when someone else is trying to relax after completely screwing up
sewing pajama pants…
Oh well. It’s done.
I’m sitting in the quiet of the family room while Billy watches tv in
the basement. I can hear faint giggles
from upstairs from two girls who were too excited about all the changes in
their room to go to sleep.
Your
peace in our hearts
It was a good day. Full of reflection. Full of moments of ideas coming
together. Some ideas that have been on
my heart for a while that don’t seem to fit in with this 31 day theme, but are
still important. We will have to wait
for those discussions until November, I suppose.
As for tonight, I am going to relax and
ease into the week.
