Domestic Bliss

Yes...I am still loving being Home. It's so very comforting. Despite the relative spontaneity of the trip, the Timing it seems, is perfect. Funny how these things have a way of working themselves out, even if you don't realise it until later on.

I flip between moments of pure and simple relaxation...a simple joy at Being Home during such a lovely summer and a rather unfamiliar level of Excitement during which I have thoughts of all sorts of things Domestic. I did pick up the paint colour charts in Home Depot last time we were there...I couldn't resist. Now I keep wandering from room to room imagining how certain colours would look at different times of day in various rooms...it takes me back to the days when I was seriously thinking about switching careers (not for the first time) and branching into interior design...there is something about colour and texture, about creating a living space that is just so satisfying. Of course I never did go down that path in the end, I started and didn't finish. Instead I experimented in my own small space and that had to suffice at the time. Now I have a much larger canvas..a whole house..to experiment with and it's very exciting!
