Holly’s Happenings

I’ve put this off for over a week now, I’ve given the excuse that I have other things to do and have avoided getting it done, but no more!  Today is the day I tear apart, de-clutter and clean the living room so that I can start getting the Christmas decorations out.  So wish me luck and cross your fingers.  And if you don’t hear from me for a few days, call out the National Guard…LOL!

Although the new house is about 900 square foot smaller than the house we moved from, in many ways we actually have more room. One of the more obvious ways we have more room is the addition of a second full bathroom. That alone has been a blessing! Also, all three bedrooms have nice sized closets in them and my bedroom has a wall of shelving, so with our dressers we have ample room for storing clothes.

Then there is the fact that we have a living room AND a family room, both of which are nice sized rooms with plenty of windows to let natural light in. But, having a living room and a family room puts me in a little dilemma. Back here in the family room is where mine and my husbands computers are, as well as a sofa,a recliner and the TV. The kids’ computer is in the front living room as well as a love seat, a rocking chair and a TV. My dilemma is that I can’t make up my mind as to which of the tv stands I want back here in the family room. And I’m driving my husband nuts by telling him I’m thinking about switching them around again…LOL!

When I get my degree done and finally get to enter the workforce doing what I love, my hope is to actually run my own business. I dream of having a corner office in a high rise with beautiful views of the area around it. I’d love to have one of those over sized desks made of my favorite wood, which is cherry. I’d also love to have beautiful matching conference tables also made from cherry. Yes, I know, I have many dreams, but this is one I know will come true!

I’m a firm believer in ceiling fans; I have one in all rooms of my home that it’s possible to have them in. In the warmer weather months they help move the cooler air and in the cold weather months they help move the warmer air. I’ve given my praises to the inventor of the ceiling fan many times in my adult life!

As with all technology, time brings change and improvement. Ceiling fans are definitely not an exception to this. I remember how plain my first ceiling fan was, but if you’ve paid any attention while in the stores, today’s ceiling fans are far from plain and boring! For instance, Casablanca ceiling fans come in a variety of styles varying from a traditional Panama Halo fan, to a contemporary Verrazono style ceiling fan.

If you are looking for a more exotic look in a ceiling fan, you might want to consider checking out Fanmation ceiling fans. They have a wide selection of fans that have a more modernistic style to them, including one style of ceiling fan that has blades that are fully retractable as well as fans with designer styled blades including one fan with leopard print blades.

So no matter what your personal style is, with the advances in both technology and design, you are sure to find a ceiling fan that will suit you perfectly!
