This past week I have come so close to going crazy, I swear it’s not even funny. Last night I couldn’t sleep(never happens to me!) and yesterday I was convinced my favorite maxi dress was washed, ironed and ready to be worn, when in fact it was so deep in the laundry basket I worried I wouldn’t be able to get rid of the creases. I had turned my wardrobe upside down, which meant that i was left sans maxi dress and a whole lotta mess. The reason for my recent state of mind is the house we are building. Oh my! Have you ever attempted to renovate or build from scratch? If you have then you understand. This is my dream home I keep telling those who say I should enjoy the adventure. It’s no time for adventures. I need to get it 1000% right! Everything needs to be perfect. I want to look at it everyday and marvel. But how do I really know what is perfect? I see something. i like it. easy, right? not when you have a million choices and happen to like a lot of things. This-liking a lot of stuff- is my main problem, my friend believes. I should narrow down what i like. Still, deciding on what color I want my house to be, what tiles go in the bathroom, if I want a wooden staircase or a marble one or what type of wood i prefer in my walk-in-wardrobe (oh yes!) or choosing between a classic or modern touch is just too much for me. I know there are people with serious problems out there but this house is costing a lot of money and I need to be careful when making thousands of euros worth of choices. This is it. We’re nearing the finish line and finally able to give Georgie a beautiful home with a garden and decisions need to be made.
