Re: Had a strange and very creepy incident at home this evening.
Really exciting news about your potential move; I'm inclined to think it would be a good thing for you to leave your current home after all the weirdos who keep showing up! :)

Re: Had a strange and very creepy incident at home this evening.
is hersey tearing up the cover?? BAD DOG!!
building a new house sounds like a great plan, you will be able to construct it just the way you want it. And bother the contracters to hell (wich is the only good way, otherwise they will start to put in their own ideas, wich are useless 90% of the time).
i don t know how the housemarket is in the US at the moment, here in holland it sucks. On the other hand, my sister in law and her boyfriend sold their house within a week! Pretty awesome, but it proves that if you put some effort in it, it is doable..
I am ever so glad we do not have to hunt for a new house, or have to sell this one.. All my efforts and inspiration go to the swedish house, and the fun part is, i will do a 60% different style of furnishing there then i do here... I will go for 4 weeks this summer (hubby arrives one week later then me and the kids) IT is an excessive holiday, but the jobmarket is flat in the holidayseason, and i can apply from sweden also, thanks to the internet. WE will go hunt for some typical swedish furniture and tableware... i am really looking forward to it, good thing is. My mum is coming along too (with her camper) so we can go shop together, and leave hubby and the kids at a lakeside somewhere to fish and swim. Mum won t be with us all the time, she has her camper, and 1 week of weaving planned anyway. I hope when i am 79 , like she is, i will still be able to drive a 6 meter long vehicle without any effort or anxiety. She also offered us her camper for a couple of days, so we can visit our friends at the farm. She will gladly housesit and ponder around in the garden.

Something's open it's my heart
If something's missing it's when we're apart
If something's good it's when we're back together again
Nothing's wrong it's just insane
Nothing's right until you're back again.

rustic type tile on the counter-tops.
i fancy a more modern type of style.. Our kitchen in the dutch house is fine, glossy cream doors, and a darkred granite countertop.. Easy to clean, but i would have prefered a black one..
In sweden it is an ikea kitchen with a countrylike style, but not too much. I like it.
They have auctions there and a lot of places sell 'loppis' wich can vary from good quality stuff to absolute junk... In former holidays i was never alowed NEAR those places, but now i got a free passage lol.
Our dutch home is very dutch and danish design.. Our swedish one will have a mix of design and swedish countrystyle. I ve painted one wall very dark blue, and the idea is now to start collecting delfts blue plates to hang on the wall. (other blue ones will fit in nicely too ) But first i have to finish the staircase.. i have ripped off the carpet, got rid of the glue, and now i am sanding it, cause it is badly damaged... Then i can start paining (the good part of the whole job). The result will be fab, but i had the sanding part...

Re: Had a strange and very creepy incident at home this evening.
that must have been a very special phonecall from your mum. Nursing homes are not the best places to keep all your marbles in place, from my experience.
Seeing jeroens mum slowly fade away in the mental hospital is a hard thing. The hardest part is that sometimes she realises that she is psyco and she wants to leave there right away, and accuses us of locking her up (which is true) I do hope i never get in that state...

but Keith would have killed me because it was pretty expensive. I finally compromised on this one pendant version of the same fixture because I couldn't find anything I liked nearly as much.
