@Susan…Remodeling!?!?!?!

Ahhhh…what’s in those walls…

You have to find a reason to go over and walk through the house. Tell us if you smell anything

In case inWorship checks back – Yeah – it is freaky. My husband and I keep making quiet jokes about the remodeling going on, no sign of the wife (who you would think would be very active in the remodeling process!) and what will the landscapers find this Spring. It would be a VERY personal question here if I asked about her to the husband though. Am hoping, as she’s Russian and still waiting for her Swiss passport, that something came up that called her home to Russia and she’ll be returning soon.

Too weird.

Wow, this one is getting a bit freaky…

Susan, are you serious? Is there a strange “grave” looking mound of dirt in the backyard?!?!?

OK – if the windows/curtains are open – fair game for a glance, peek – whatever you want to call it.

I’m tempted in fact to run outside and try to get a peek into my neighbors below if I can – have not seen the wife since November – only the husband and the son (hers, not his) occasionally. It’s too weird – her car just sits outside and now even the license plates are missing! But people really like their privacy here and I’m afraid to commit a faux pas and ask the other neighbors.

But I never check decor here – either minimalist or old heavy German – looking forward to the day I can wander the aisles of TJMaxx Home again.

Have to admit to looking…but its not just to see how others decorate. Its hoping that someones house may be messier than mine. Pretty pathetic, huh. And on that note, I make sure my shades are ALWAYS closed at night. Oh, thanks for the birthday wish.

Oh my goodness… My husband and I go on drives all the time at night just so I can see people’s interior decorating. My, across the street, neighbors keep their curtains drawn at night… It’s like they want “privacy” or something… psh! But I do keep an eye out…
