Moving soon. Finally..have been looking online for a new abode. Realized I haven't lived alone for over 2 yrs. Have been house-sharing for too long. Really looking forward to creating my own space again. I do have my own space here, downstairs...but it's still not entirely mine

Enjoy your own space. There is really nothing like it.

"People have often said that coming into my home is like taking a deep breath..."

That sounds so nice. I'm afraid that when people come into my home they want to hold their breath.

breathin'

lol Thanks Steve...I will ! Mebbe you could install a filtration system ? Which filters out dust and smells and vacuums all at once ? :)))

Hope I didn't offend Steve...I was just being a little silly :(
My landlord is an absolute grot( who lives upstairs...which is where kitchen and bathroom are )and thus, I do most of the cleaning. I couldn't stand the mess and dirt if I didn't do it. ( He says he will 'get around to it' ! lol ).
I made an unkind assumption that all men are grots...which they obviously aren't !

No, I'm not offended. I'm the one who brought it up. "Grot", that's an interesting word. Would that be like a slob as we say here in the States? If so, I'm sure I am a bit of a grot. My biggest problem is clutter: books, CDs, DVDs, papers, magazines, mail and so on. However, for the most part, I do keep the dishes clean, the carpet vacuumed and the tub scrubbed.

Just wrote a comment but it seems to have disappeared... Maybe it'll show up later??

Anyway I was saying I also find having your own place very important. It's truly precious to space that's your own. I don't think I could live with a man again. I tend to start molding myself unconsciously. I want my own space. Do what I want. Except of course I share mine with my kids but that's different. They mess things up but also inspire me.

I also said how I like the image you have with the eye behind the veil. I assume it's your eye.

Good luck with finding a place! (I'm looking too. I need a cheaper place.)

Hi Ansi,
A big clean-out for you, huh ? Sound's like it's freeing you up a little, making space for the new.
I am begining to think that I couldn't live with someone again too. I really am so looking forward to having my own space. I had forgotten how much I need it. I do tend to do the same thing also...mold myself to who is around me...forget about what's important for me.
Don't think I can do that anymore...need to be independant.
The image is of Bjork, actually. Me? ...nope..I'm blonde and blue-eyed..lol

eye

[superduperansi]

I'm glad I got that cleared up. I had started imagining you as dark, maybe Asian, all wrong then... I like Bjork.

PS Almost didn't get that comment posted either since I typed in the letter o with two dots in Bjork's name... I wonder if I may have done something like that in my last message too...?

tis funny how we build an image, persona on the net. I have an image of you as small, petite and long-haired, with flowers in your hair

( your original post seems lost)
