Di, at Pensitivity101, is once again our host for Share Your World. Here are her questions for this week.
1. Do you prefer your home painted in neutral colors with pictures or furnishings to add warmth and character?
Yes, our current home has mostly light gray walls and white ceilings, while the home we are moving into at the end of this week has white walls and ceilings. We add pops of color with our furniture, accent pillows, window treatments, artwork, and area rugs.
2. Do you prefer wooden/tiled floors or carpets and rugs?
I do not like wall-to-wall carpeting at all. Our current home has hardwood floors throughout the daytime living areas and tiled flooring in the bathrooms. It does have wall-to-wall carpeting in all of the bedrooms except the primary bedroom. The home we are moving into has hardwood flooring throughout the house, including all bedrooms, and tiled flooring in the bathrooms. We will be placing area rugs in rooms as needed.
3. Do you have an outside patio, balcony, or decking?
Our current house has both an outdoor patio and two wooden decks. The new home has outdoor patios but no decks.
4. Do you prefer a traditional bathroom with a bathtub and/or shower or a wet room?
Traditional.
Most days I don’t feel my age. But most days are not like yesterday. I spent five hours on our deck and patio doing a long-overdue spring cleaning. I swept and vacuumed the deck, washed down all of our deck furniture — chairs and tables — removed all of the accumulated spider webs from the wood siding, and pressure-washed the deck flooring, which is due for re-staining. Then I went to our patio on the ground floor and did the same things down there.
