I really didn't know what to write about this month. Usually there is some writing on the page that I can draw from and as hard as I looked there wasn't any this month. So I looked at the picture to decide. Lemonade? Roses? I finally thought this looks so cozy and inviting that I would talk about the comforts of home.
Each of us has a place that we call home. A welcoming place. A place where we feel safe. My home is rather cluttered and dusty right now. I am working on it. Does that make it any less inviting to me? Not at all. It is my haven. The place I come to at the end of a long day at work and find the man I love waiting for me. It is where I have my things. Things that are important to me. Things I enjoy seeing.
Isn't there someplace we all feel cozy in? Someplace we like to be more than any other? I think there is. A cottage or a palace, there's no place like home.

Yup, calendar flipping time!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Home is the place I want to be, most of the time.
It's good to go away, but it's always good to return home too.
DeleteYes, it's nice to come home. Phil and I were gone today for a memorial service for my aunt Artie. She was married to my uncle Nathan, who's my mom's only sibling. So we've been gone almost 7 hours. It feels good to relax. Home safe. Where we feel good! and blessed by our Lord!
ReplyDeleteAmen! I agree completely.
DeleteKathy, You are so right. I absolutely love to travel, but when it's time to come home, I am so ready to be here. Our homes should be a best place to be. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, Susie.
DeleteYou are so right, Kathy. That old adage -there is no place like home-rings so true. I love coming home to a clean house and fresh linens on the bed...It is the best place to be after a stressful day- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteIt sure is. There is nothing like sleeping in your own bed.
DeleteI couldn't agree more!
ReplyDeleteHOME is where the heart is! Be it ever so humble, there's no place like HOME!! I think my home IS me! Is that crazy? I love my home.....as imperfect as it is. Sanford and Son STILL live in a corner of my back yard and there is nothing really special about my home other than it is FULL of things I love! I am so happy that YOU love YOURS!!! AND we have the SAME kitchen floor!! I think about you every time I clean mine!
ReplyDeleteI agree that each of us puts our own stamp on our home. Our floors may be the same now, but next week we are getting a new one!
DeleteYou picked the perfect thing to write about! When I first saw the picture,I thought "Home".It looks so
ReplyDeletewelcoming... Our home is us..who we are.My home is cluttered & dusty at times too but the best compliment
I've ever had was from my nephew who said " It's always great to come here cause it's so comfortable! I feel at home." THAT is what I want my home to be. May we each enjoy our homes today!
Home is exactly where the heart is...
ReplyDeleteFor me, I never stop improving it's where ALL MY MONEY GOES... really,
I love coming home , walking to the smell of Clorox and Gain though my laundry room as I make it to my living room the smell of Clean cotton fills the air. I sit on my cozy leather recliner until the baby wakes or my husband says "where's dinner"
I love being home.
I love buying plants from home depot or lowes, I love going to Marshalls and going straight towards the housewares, and I love adorning my home with things that speak to me..
Kathy what an excellent post I love it.
HOME SWEET HOME.
XO Marissa
I so agree! Even when my house is messy...it's comfortable to me. I love just puttering around the house and being inside when it's hot outside...like it is now. And June is my favorite month! Enjoy your week my friend! Sweet hugs, Diane
