Today’s host for Blogfest 2012 is Corinne at http://everydaygyaan.com The writing prompt for today is:
Are you living your
dream?
This is a good one for this weekend, as I am gearing up to
having a decorator here for the next two weeks, repainting all my upstairs
rooms, plus the hallway, stairs and landing. In addition, once the decorating
is done, I am getting a new carpet for my study. So for the next few weeks, my
life will be total chaos, as I have to clear clutter from each room in turn so
that the decorator can actually get to the walls. Even worse will be emptying
my study in readiness for the carpet fitter –I have so much stuff in here, I
have no idea where I am going to put it all!
If I was living my dream, I’d hand the house key to the
decorator and take a long holiday preferably somewhere nice and warm, where I
could sit out on a terrace with an ice-cold drink and preferably a view of the
ocean – somewhere like Florida would be perfect, or maybe the Bahamas, or even
Cyprus or Crete. And then I’d come home to find everything done and dusted, and
some fairy godmother would have waved a wand to get everything straight and
tidy in my study (as well as all the cables back into my computer!).
Hmm, that’s not going to happen, is it?

ReplyDeletethat sounds like that show House Makeover or whatever it is...you know, where they send the family to Disney World or something and they come home to a brand new house? My dream too.
ReplyDeleteMore of a nightmare, I think, Claudia!
ReplyDeleteOh, if only, Sandra! :-)
I wish it could happen for you :) but life is tough, so best of luck.
ReplyDeleteYou can always hire someone to clean too! But look at it this way, once it is done, you won't have to do it again and everything will look great! :-)
ReplyDeletehow great would that be.. leave and come back to a refreshed place... but in the end, i am sure you'll enjoy the new look...
ReplyDeleteYou know-- I like that dream. I'd meet you in Florida-- and I'd buy the drinks :) LOL. We can always dream!!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Jenn
Good luck with the decorating. The dream sounds good - I used to wish that each time I moved.
