indie.mom's Profile

When we started looking for our first home, I told the agent that I didn't want a house on a corner or on a busy street (in fact the only other stipulation is that the house should have a pool). Guess what? In December we bought a corner house on a relatively busy street with no pool. So you should never say never.

I like the corner house; because we have an alley, we only have one shared neighbor, plus lots of natural light. I live in the greater L.A. area so I don't have to worry about shoveling snow, just an additional cost to my landscaping budget because the yard is bigger.

If I had it to do all over again, I'd do it the same way.

I want that clock. The other stuff? Meh.

Does anyone know of an organizer that slides out? I want to put mine in the small space between my refrigerator and tall cabinet, so it would be nice if I could pull it out to retrieve and replace my broom, mop, swiffer, etc...

I have some lovely curtains from IKEA that were a gift...they are white, with a kind of lace pattern...hard to describe, just very simple. I have them in my bedroom and planned to use them in another bedroom. But when I went to IKEA, it's as if they never existed.
