Perfect place
A lot of shit has gone down at my house, that I am not ready to talk about...but it has got me thinking.
I know it's a cliche to want the house and the picket fence, but when I see my house in my head -thats what I see.
I see a 1.5 storey house. It has a brightly painted front door. A bay front window. A long driveway, with an attached garage on the leftside.
You enter the house through the foyer. There are coat hooks and a shoe rack. No mirror, just a painting thats basically a splash painting.
To the right is the livingroom. It's not pristine, but it is clean. There is a couch, a daddy chair, endtables instead of a coffee table. The room is painted mauve. There are vinyl wall decals up, and pictures that I have taken. Shelves are on the walls, holding houseplants - to keep them safe from my kitties. Bookshelves sandwich in the TV.
In the corner is a half bath. There is an above the toilet rack, holding toiletries. handtowels/faceclothes, and small house plants.
From the livingroom is an eat-in kitchen (woodpanneled). It has low cupboards and cabinets. Wooden finish counters, with marble handles for the drawers. It has a large, restauraunt size sink.
There is a dinning set off to the side for eating.
The bedrooms are in the back. 3 bedrooms.
The master bedroom has a tropical beach mural on the wall that you see right when you walk in. The bed is large and comfortable. Blankets strewn everywhere- you're just going to get back in it. It will still have teddybears. There will be a large dresser, and a table just for folding laundry. The rest of the walls are painted light blue. Wooden floors.
Other 2 bedrooms are blank in my head.
There is a linen closet beside the bathroom. The bathroom door has a kitty door- as my animals never like to be left alone.
Yellow bathroom. Pink shower curtain. Black countertop. An array of coloured towels, facecloths. Baskets to hold toiletries/candles/grooming tools. Built in speakers. Large bathtub, possibly with bubble jets. A mural of an ocean view on the ceiling. There is a nook that holds the washer/dryer.
Back to the kitchen, it leads to the mudroom. The mudroom is a sunroom, that is cat-free. It's where my baby plants start.
Next is the medium sized yard with green grass, a workshop in the back. There are specific plots for veggies and flowerbeds.
From the backyard, you can see the .5 of the house.
It's a lightpink room where I get work done.
There's a wall of cubbie holes that hold my yarn, art supplies, sewing things. In the corner is a sewing machine. Sharing the same desk space is my laptop. In the other corner, is a small table for manicures and a foldup massage table.
There are table lamps for heavy duty work, but the main light is a ceiling mosaic lamp.
At this point, I see 2 kids. 2 cats, long haired.
I work at a small spa in town and have side clientel on the side.
I am well established in the Esthetics community.
There is no time frame in my head...but it's my happy place.
