work in progress

my bathroom so far
I have spent the better part of the last two weeks or so trying to decide what I want "my" house to look like. It is not my ideal house, but it is a place I can make a home for a little while. It seems I have very specific and rather expensive taste. I just want it to look like what I see in my head. Is that so difficult?

Really, I just want someone to do it for me. You know, like those shows on TV where they have an idea of what you like, and then they go away and make all your dreams come true? Sigh. The most important rooms for me are the master bath and kitchen. I can forgo almost anything else in the house if those spaces are rockin'.

Most women plan their weddings from the age of six; me, I planned what my dream house would look like (Barbie never needed Ken to have her dream house). So this is not my dream house, but it is one in which I will be trying to make a life for Zach. I want to be comfortable in the space, able to entertain or entertain.

I want someone to say, "I know what I am doing. I am a professional, so please just let me take the controls. You go and have a margarita or two." Is that so terrible of me?

You will see a 3D rendition I am working on of my bathroom. It will have a pocket-door and a cool no frame, glass door front. I am working out colors and whatnot as I download images. The window is a wish and not a reality, sadly. Still, it is a work in progress as so much is in my life at the moment. Salute!
