Who Needs a vase when you have a tin can?
I have moved a lot in my life so it is a familiar feeling for me. There are parts I like and others...well not so much. This move has been very different though. Much like my pregnancy with October the waiting part was misery but now that it's game on, I am in my zone and getting things done. In the past our moves have been unsure, sometimes scary, usually to a completely different setting{and State}. We would end up leaving or selling a majority of our stuff, and starting all over in a new place. This time we are moving a mile away. Everything is coming with us. Not much will change. It's exciting and weird.
Ever since I started My Challenge and spent hours scavenging my house for things to use to make a chandelier I have been saving every glass jar, every tin can, and ever piece of cardboard I have. My eyes have been opened to a world of "recycling" I never saw before. I have never even been able to hold onto my furniture let alone a box full of cardboard. It is pretty awesome.
I love that I am able to ride the same decorative theme in my new place and keep it up long enough to see where I was going with it, instead of being cut off by my move. I am getting comfortable in my own shoes and starting to live a life style I love. My house is starting to feel like My Home.

Aww, your post makes me so happy it brings tears to my eyes. I love your imagery words, too.
I love the flowers in the can! It looks so good! I have to remember that because I basically do not own any vases ... and when I do get or buy some flowers I am always in trouble ... This looks so awesome!
UHM YOU'RE COOL. I WANT TO BE LIKE YOU. WHERE DO YOU LIVE. I COULD COME BY AND SEE YOUR KIDS. I HAVE CANDY. WE COULD BE BEST FRIENDS. I'M NICE, I PROMISE. AND I'M NOT A STALKER. CALL ME. REMEMBER THAT ONE TIME. THAT WAS FUNNY.
{ps. thanks for all the postpartum clothing advice the other day, soooo helpful. i just thought it'd be fun to leave you a creepy message....}
