of home design

i think my head is gonna explode with all these home furnishing sites i've seen today. i'm so friggin' excited to decorate our new home. it would be fun to color coordinate and plan on how to make it really cozy and warm. i've got a million ideas but it has to be within budget. i think i'm aging due largely to the fact that i'm about to have house bills and other costs soon. so there's need to live just within my means and not over-spend.. ha!

last night, i was amused to find a letter to my mother. it was a business letter but still it was quite a shock to see that my mom's name was in it. like she's still here. she must be laughing with me too. and she is still with us, in dreams, even in my nieces' facial expressions. she's very much a part of us.

now that we're about to move, my bestfriend proposed a goodbye ceremony for my old abode which is the only place i stayed "since time immemorial". i mean this is a big step and i'm trying not to get too sentimental or worst, paranoid. i just want to focus on the stuff i'm gonna bring and buy for the new house. talk about huge money involved. i've established my color palette - purple, apple green, baby blue and yellow. if it isn't pastel, then i'm color blind.
