the rocking chair is here! it's great. it needs to be repainted, though... i'm thinking of pink... or green... or maybe something more boring, like pale grey... i'll wait until i've gotten to know it better, so i can choose a colour that matches his personality.

we went house-looking today, the husband and i. first we looked at this one, mainly because it's close to where we live. not our (i.e my) style at all, and not even a beautiful view. so we just drove by. then we went to see this one, mainly because it's close to work. it was also very close to a road... the galdor cat would probably be run over the first day, so we didn't even stop to have a closer look.

after that we went to this house. loved it loved it loved it! ...but it was enormous, and it looked like it needed a total make over... but it was really really beautiful, and it had it's own ruin! i'd LOVE to have my own ruin! i'd have a bathtub in it, and candles in the windows, and a white chair where i could read books. i'd even start drinking coffee, and have my own little coffee corner in there. another really good thing about this house was the sweet little flagpole, less than half the size of a normal one. i'd like to paint it pink (i'm having a pink period at the moment). i'm afraid tommy would never ever agree to buying it, though... he's much too sensible about those kinds of things. :(

with a broken heart we went to look at this one. the size was ok. the colour was cool. it didn't look like it needed much work done in order to look alive. but, it was so close to the road you'd almost be afraid to be run over when you opened the door.  ¶ 8:10 PM
