  7. Love the saying have your home work hard for you ,I so agree! I think I use to be a slave to my home and now I totally enjoy it and am relaxed about it. Love being home doing nothing if I choose. These books both sound like good reads,Happy Monday, Kathysue

  9. check out that heavenly thick chopping block on that kitchen island... whoa, love it. I'm not sure if my house works for me... i'm always so busy thinking about what i want to change, or add, i'm not sure if i often just appreciate it just as it is... And,... i'm clueless as to how to use the remote control for the tv!

  10. I thumbed through this book in a shop and the inspiration alone took my mind to a very serene and lovely place. The rooms with walls of books are my kind of places. This book is on my wishlist!
