You took the words right out of my head with this post. I lived at home with my parents this summer, and there was no space to call my own (I share a room with my sister). After a year of living in my own room, I felt anxious there was no private retreat. So I took baths. All the time. And when I moved into my apartment, I did everything I could (and still do everything I can) to make my room feel like a place of solace.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06398517662371823498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155538679069971441.post-17313892356451362102010-12-10T10:47:52.735-05:002010-12-10T10:47:52.735-05:00i love my me time... i dont know what id do withou...i love my me time... i dont know what id do without it! i am the same way this year... focusing on my home instead of buying up clothes and shoes! im very into organizing and beautifying my house right now!!MissAlyssaDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08341044526050833209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155538679069971441.post-15502902341246396822010-12-10T10:37:13.858-05:002010-12-10T10:37:13.858-05:00I love your little space.
