I am finished.

I think if the houses down here have any kind of mutual problem is that they are either under or over accessorized. Under because they are in the process like you are or over because a lot of people bring too much stuff when they move permanently....which is gonna be me if I don't start editing up here before that permanent move happens.

I know it is stuff and you shouldn't love what can't love you back, but....

Our Camellia was so much fun to decorate because I didn't have to work around what we already had. I was able to use some things from Cincinnati but the rest were a fun search, trying to stay within a low budjet and I am happy with the finds from Bargains and Treasures, Ikea, Frontgate outlet(in Cincinnati) Dockside, Ebay, etc. I loved having white furniture for the first time (and maybe the last when we move) and I loved having the walls Shoreline blue, very different from our house in Ohio.

We will see what can be done with our stuff from Ohio, but meanwhile we have to sell the Ohio house and then the Hadley house.

And JUDY, don't ever get down about not being finished. It is NOT the destination but the journey.
