I read up on every detail and the minute I saw pictures of you in Florida, I knew it wasn't the place for you. I'm so thrilled you're going to be living in your sweet 1930s cottage, back in Tennessee, where you belong! I love that room of yours and it makes me want to see more.<br /><br />I've missed you!<br />xoxo,<br />rueRuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110133467260748245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4025769640802524983.post-73557182526533745622017-02-12T17:36:58.158-08:002017-02-12T17:36:58.158-08:00Wow!

I am amazed at how quickly you were able to move, of course thanks to your family. Because of my husband’s Alzheimer our younger daughter who lives in Brentwood, TN, wished for us to move closer. We already bought a bungalow in Nashville (about 1 mile from Vanderbilt U) several months ago, but have not moved yet. Being a caregiver for my husband 24/7 and having no help here it is slow clearing out 40 years of accumulation in our house here in GA, but I have hope we might move in the spring or summer. What part of Nashville did you move to? Nashville is considered a top city to move to I just read. All my best wishes to y’all in your new home.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4025769640802524983.post-3886964361640906022017-02-08T21:08:21.828-08:002017-02-08T21:08:21.828-08:00Wow!

Your granddaughters are so precious. No wonder you couldn't stand being away from them. I love the knotty pine and I'm glad you're keeping it as it is. It's so warm and homey; in beautiful condition. The black and white decor is lovely. I had a black and white lamp that I sold a while back that would have looked perfect in your room. The fabric shade was very similar to the pattern in your curtains. Looking forward to many more heartwarming posts from you, Dewena.

And, my very favorite part was: "In desperation at the end of a long day's house viewings, our son thought about settling for a newer, updated but characterless house. My daughter-in-law told him, 'Your mom's soul would shrivel here.' She knows me so well." Be still my heart.
