Ha, Jane, at least your bangs were straight and they existed! You were very cute. Thanks for sharing your home. I’d share mine, but the clutter would confound you šŸ¤”!

That was 2 years after my bangs grew out šŸ˜†. Our house gets cluttered easily being a cape cod style. So you see seeing 5 minutes where it isn't šŸ˜‰

Took me years to get rid of those bangs. Now they’ve reappeared, but they’re getting thinner as we speak! Your house looks like a home, one to be used and enjoyed, holding plenty of good memories.

Thanks so much, @caroleroseland it is home! We purchase my childhood home after my mother passed away at 2010. I'm so thankful to be here

Love these before and after photos; that you keep renovating/upgrading the original house…a beautiful home! My favorite room is living room…the largest space for my yoga workouts, exercise ball etc. Also has the TV šŸ˜€ and an outdoor patio that will be awesome when summer finally arrives! Sun out today…made me smile at all your happy smiles! šŸ˜Šā˜ŗļøšŸ„°

Thanks so much, Joan. I miss having a patio or a deck, but I love our little sunroom. I hope you get to enjoy time out there a lot during the warmer weather

Jane, favorite room in my house is my craft room. That's where I used to make quilts but now doing Stain glass and writing.

Here are two additional. Let me know if you get these Jane. I have made so many others, Ghost, which is an so many angels for Christmas I've lost count. This last one is a boat On the water I'm making for my husband for Father's Day

Here's one that I'm working on for my husband for Father's Day. We used to have a little sailboat.

My wife named it the Dog Pound. I converted a single car garage for a place to raise some English Bulldogs with puppies. We even had some cats out here. I moved my desk out here and now all the animals are gone except one senior mixed Chihuahua, but she stays with the wife because she likes the Alpha. Now the "Pound" has a tv over my 43-inch computer monitor along with a tv over my stationary bike. There is a story in my Substack about the "Pound".
