We saw several major cities, and tons of little towns. We spent two days at a beautiful manor house in the country - Ballyvolane in Castlelyons (shameless plug for this wonderful group), which I recommend to anyone that might be headed to Ireland. And being in the country, not a worry in the world, simple surroundings really made me want to get back to that at home. It made me want to really "simplify" the way that we live.
As I get older my decor and even fashion sense get to be more classic, and timeless, and I think that's probably the direction I'm heading. I have learned that lamps, vases, candles and plants are my decor staples. I love photography. I love hanging photos on the wall, of landscapes and still life, but mostly of family and friends and vacation & I think that those memories, those photos can really make a house a home.
So, since I have come home, I have really started thinking - how do I make my life and home, simpler, less hectic, comfortable? So this is my goal.
I am going to start paring down, go for statement pieces instead of trinkets, and really try to slow down and enjoy every minute of my life.... yes, I will even try to enjoy the 540 minutes every day that I spend in the office, cause I think that it's all part of enjoying your life.
This trip made me want to ENJOY my life more. Enjoy my family more, and make our house a home. Even if it's not the house we'll live in forever.
Hopefully I'll be able to share all of this with you, and our house makes a transition.
