home sweet home

My lack of blogging lately has been because I've been settling into a new life, new surroundings and a new happy time that i'm embracing wholeheartedly. Have you ever lived somewhere that you can truly say feels like home? This feels like my home and I couldn't be happier here. I get feelings about places and I fell in love with this flat instantly.  It has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere and one which I feel like I've always known a strange way. I believe all places have a personality and sou and this flat's is beautiful.  If it was a human, it would tell stories by the fireplace, bake cakes on Sundays and tell you to remember your scarf on cold Autumn days. I love it and I think it loves me back. My trusty desk is all set up again and my collected photographs are all unpacked and on display. I've set a few more out now that I have room along my fireplace and on my pinboard.  I plan to get many more framed and make sure they are displayed and remembered well.  My bedroom has become a little haven of warmth and comfort and I quite like the little colour scheme it's sort of formed on its own, especially when the sun comes through the curtains. Now all that's left to fully settle me into my new home is the return of my little kitty Otto (although apparently he's grown a lot) and also my new boy Günter, another Ragdoll kitten. I get them on Sunday the 4th of September and I really can't wait. I feel like I've been separated from my child and I guarantee there will be tears when I see him again. Photos will quite certainly follow. Of the cats, not my tears.
