Everything's coming up roses...

...and cosmos and daisies. Life is sweet (as illustrated by this late-summer bouquet). I was just checking my bank account online and saw an ad that said "create the home you've always wanted." It featured an amazing kitchen. But instead of coveting the amazing kitchen, I thought I have the home I've always wanted. Not that I would mind the amazing kitchen (we don't even have a dishwasher), but our home is safe shelter literally and figuratively. It's comfortable and filled with books and music and flowers and places to work and rest (and cat hair and dust). What more could I want?

Thanks, hubby, for the roses and the sweetness.

How about some dog hair to go with that cat hair? I have LOADS!!

Beautiful bouquet!!! I sympathize with the cat hair -- I spend half my time cleaning it out of my mouse (coincidence? I think not!) because my cat insists on laying on my desk and sometimes my keyboard when I'm trying to work. And I'm with you on the house too. The older I get, the less I care about anything beyond a fresh paint color now and then. Having someplace small, paid for and simple to maintain will be just fine as I approach my next decade :)

Ms. Peri, Animals and hair. What're ya gonna do? :-)
I'd love a dog around, but hubby and kitties would pack their bags and we can't have that.

Lisa, Yes, something tells me living within one's means is about to become very fashionable (again)!
