i have a bedroom
it is part of a house built in 1868. it has a bay window that allows the sun to pour in. the walls are painted a muted teal. the walls still have the arms for lamps that once lit the space with gas lights. i use the arms now to hang hats. the ceiling has a variety of cracks in the plaster. i lay on my bed and look up, remarking to myself that it looks like a giant map, would never fix it. in the center of the ceiling is an original light fixture in a medallion shape with flowers. the floor is original dark wood that creeks with every step. my room talks to me.i've furnished the space with an eclectic combination of a dresser that once belonged to my brother, an antique dresser, a queen ann chest of drawers, an oak captain's bed, 2 vintage bureaus and an artist's drawing table. a gal can't have enough drawers, (wink).
there are red, sheer window treatments embroidered in gold that frame the windows that compliment the walls and my bedding's mood changes with my mood. i have several options for the seasons, light and cheery for summer and warm and cozy colors for frigid nights.
let's not forget the red candles and nicknacks collected from my stays in California, Colorado and Minnesota. my bedroom holds secrets that i revisit in dreams.
some or most would consider my bedroom cluttered or too colorful. i love it and would never strip my room of myself.

When I think of my favorites things, I don't feel so bad
either.As I am usually laying on my bed as well
in my genie bottle. I am smoky.

Those graceful bedouins, ghazals.

a guy can have more than enough drawers but hardly have a single thing worth placing inside any.
You don't take a note and still claim its worth anything.
I am really amazed...
Really? You seriously thought I have a bedroom
But I have rooms with things haphazardly scattered everywhere making it almost impossible to move in
No problem if you don't wish to, it's ok but let me hold my privacy.
But as I told you, you can intrude in
rejoice it
Take care!
I'd easily pay a tenner to get in.
Do you have any ghosts living in?
Past and present collide in this supernaturally funny buddy comedy when stoner-slacker Hannah (Melanie Lynskey) is hired to portray Lady Wadsworth (Judy Greer), a Southern belle who died in 1875, in a tour at Wadsworth Manor. Hannah, a hot mess, figures she can fake it —until the ghost of Lady Wadsworth appears! Lady Wadsworth tells Hannah it’s time to change her wild ways — and she’ll haunt her until she does.
at least $ wasn't involved
"it is part of a house built in 1868".........Oh my goodness. Please my love, please say it isn't so........are you "white"?
The shock, horror is almost as heavy as the rock I carry.
