So a week after picking up the keys, my house finally has heat (which took a plumber, a city inspector, a gas company guy, AND a HVAC service call LOL), most of my stuff is put away (2 more pieces of art to hang, plus tweaking of the kitchen pantry/cabinets), I have groceries out the ying-yang... and when I came home tonight after a long, frustrating, disappointing day at work I discovered my favorite thing about my new home.
I walked into a tidy home full of stuff I like, hung up my winter coat, hugged the cat, poured a glass of wine, threw together an omelet, did prep-dishes while I cooked/quickly wiped down the counters once it was plated before sitting down to a late meal. No mess, no somebody else's stuff, no noise, no distractions, no one to work around.
For the first time in ages I can actually breathe...
