Hi, I am a retired teacher living in Nova Scotia, Canada. I taught Home Economics, Drama, and Leadership and worked at our school board in Safe Schools where I helped with all issues around safety in our schools. I have two adult children and three wonderful grandchildren who fill my life with joy. I am blessed with many caring and fun-loving friends and family members. I love to spend time celebrating life with them doing lunches, day trips around my lovely province and searching for treasures to enrich my space. I enjoy rug-hooking, reading, cooking, and most of all decorating my home. I currently live in a small condo and have been changing my decor to suit me and my lifestyle. I love an eclectic mix of furniture and displaying items that have a personal meaning to me. Recently, I have been living with my mom to care for her. Her condo is a floor below mine in the same building. It has put my decorating on hold but not my interest in reading about decorating and making one’s house a home. I knew my recent changes were right for me on the day I walked into my living room and a large contented sigh escaped and a big smile of contentment spread across my face. I still have more to do but I am well on my way.
Can’t wait to see a photo of your home! I’m so glad you are here to share stories!!
For many of us, making a beautiful home is a lifetime journey. Your life sounds interesting and rick, and I would love to see how your home has evolved along with you. Please post some photos soon!
House to home is never ending, but the process is as wonderful as the result, yes?
