end of year reminiscence, pt I

[son's room then]
i did push most of the stuff

in adjacent attic room
so i had space
that, and a mattress
.
an itch. it's been a year exactly since i moved in, in our new, old house. son residing at dad's, two doors down, i slept in one of the two attic rooms that seemed livable and sleepable. the chaos in all other rooms felt quite confusing. but i hid, and i hid well, watching the tudors season 4 on my notebook, whilest munching away on toasted ciabatta with melting salty butter, three year old cheddar cheese and the odd glass of burgundy red wine. those were, erm, one way or another, the days. ...

[my room now]
still. so glad to be one year later ... ☻ see, i've been at it again, stripping of paper off walls. downstairs now, we're slowly and definitely rounding up. plenty of wallpaper musings ran through my head, which explains a reminiscence of sorts. more to come this week, no doubt. first things first though: front room decorations (about time) and preparing a reception of 12. no worries. just the starters... hoping fervently you are having a jolly good time. ♥

  1. I love your sunny white room Woolfy, what a vast improvement! I think it would be quite nice indeed to lie in bed at night and watch the stars.
    Looking forward to some more reminiscence to come x

  9. Nadine, there is something so re-assuring to arrive here after a medium length absence and to find that you are still stripping off wallpaper.
    Cheers to your wallpaper musings, it could be a book of poetry, one I'd like to write some of the poems in,
    love to you and wishing you a Merry Christmas there in your magical
    reminiscical world!!
