MY THREE HOMES – ok

Many years ago we bought this city home. It is a split level with three bedrooms upstairs and two bedrooms downstairs. My hubby stays in the basement with all his stuff and as the kids moved out I inherited more and more rooms. So at this time I have four. Well one is a guest room but I have bookshelves in their and I have clothes in the cupboard.
One room has always had my wall to wall bookshelves which my hubby built many years ago. In here I have my computer desk and tables for my eggs and decoupage plates.
Upstairs is our bedroom, my daughter’s bedroom and my scrapbook room. I plan to take over my daughter’s room as soon as she goes back to university sometime in July. I am not sure if I will move my scrapbook stuff in there or maybe make it into an art studio. I am not sure what I would do with the old scrapbook room. I have time to think and plan the rooms out.
One of our homes is a trailer. So it’s small. We didn’t pay much for it over fifteen years ago and doesn’t cost much to maintain although my hubby invested a lot of money in it making the "sunporch" bigger. We spend weekends there starting May 1.You have all heard about our Florida home. So that’s it. I enjoy each one but wonder how I would be if I just had this one in Montreal.
So yes I guess we are well off. We have enough to enjoy our lives. We do not SHOW OFF!!!!! Our homes are simple and NOT decorated like the magazines because we are not like that. We are not concerned with appearances.
Our friends just left. I made a delicious chicken soup and chopped liver and salad. Everyone enjoyed and then we played bridge. My friend and I got lousy hands and were glad to call it quits.
No plans for tomorrow. I have unpacking to do and organizing to do.

I heard it snowed pretty bad there last week or something…is the snow gone or was it my imagination? I knew you lived in Canada but I just thought it was Toronto….but I was wrong….

Why am I so surprised that you are from Quebec?? I guess in my head I just pictured the Toronto area too.

you are very blessed. I would like to have 1 home. 😀

Me three! I also thought you lived in Toronto… North York or something. SO surprised you live in Montreal! Is it a good place to live? I have been wondering if it is a city that Mehmet and I should move to.

It isn’t showing off to realize and be grateful for your blessings. You are truly well off. So be happy! No more getting depressed about finances! Please!

If we had enough money, I might like to have three homes! I wouldn’t want fancy ones either, just simple ones like you have. Maybe one in Maine, one at the beach near us, and this one here. hugs, Weesprite
