i believe in tufted velvet couches. so much so, that i want one. or two.
i believe in texas-sized thunder storms. absolute downpours. dark skies and the refuge it requires.
i believe in hours set aside for reading. in coffee shops. at lunch counters. during three month european excursions.

YES!
Ohmyword. For a long time when I was a child, we had two tufted purple velvet love seats that were hand-me-downs from my great-gma's house. My mother never loved them, thought they were a tad garish and they were really a bit too boudoir for her taste (I mean...tufted. purple. velvet). I loved them of course. I was appalled when she finally replaced them. To this day I wish I could find and salvage them.
But since I can't I'll lust after every tufted couch I see, velvet or not.
amen and amen. especially the home bit. i believe in finding, building, and needing a home now more than ever.
a beautiful read! thank you!
I love this
i wish there were more hours set aside for reading in my life.
if you ever pass through germany or england on your europe excursions make sure to stop by and say hello!
Yes a million times to reading and european excursions!
I love time set aside for reading too but at the moment I just can't concerntrate and I don't know why--it is beginning to frustrate me.
i think we may be soulmates.
