Our Living Rooms

My husband Lorne is a manager for residential homes and he is a well experienced carpenter, painter, and he is knowledgeable too with other handy works such as fixing and renovating houses; so I might as well have to feature what kind of work he does. The home we have right now needs lots of work however we probably can get by with those fixer-upper later because my husband is so busy with other work, the work that has stability and pays him on monthly basis. I can only keep our home clean, in order and be contented as what it is ... for now. Otherwise we might move on to another better place to live. Again? I know, getting sick and tired of moving again!!

Know what? I like the high - vaulted ceiling in this living room. Space wise? It is smaller space compared to the living room in another previous home we had.

Anyway, have to feature some of the photos I snapped days ago to show the arrangement I managed to keep my living room an enjoyable space to be at the time for relaxation.
 

 

 

 Our TV is the center of our enjoyable life at the living room. As you can see it was located at the middle of the room. Duh, it was because the setting of the living room in this house is weird. The fireplace is located in a bizarre right hand side of the room closer to the front door. Why? I don't know why because I'm not the architect of this house. I once dreamt of becoming an architect because I love drawings and designing archi designs of homes when I was young. However, my mind is a product of "Economic Times."

Perfectly renovated

 

 

 This could be the best living room we had. It was the most spacious living room for my family. Fresh paint on the walls, hardwood floors, new window blinds, etc, etc. We could have  entertained so many guests here however my kids never want to spend their time in this room. They love their bedrooms so much that's why. Oh, wait, when my parents-in-law were still alive, we had so many happy wonderful memories here. Rest in Peace Mom and Dad! May the Lord God keep you both in His loving care.

This is the living room where my kids spent joyous memories of their grandparents as they opened so many hundred gifts for their birthdays and Christmas presents abound.

I never dreamt this kind of living room. It was fit for a millionaire with lavish lifestyle, modern style living room. You bet my husband worked in this house, painting the ceiling, the walls and all the carpentry works:  laminate floors, tiling the walls, and floors. Even the backyard's fence and other yard work he can manage to make things happen according to the plan.

 The owner sold this house. They decide it's best for them to increase the price tag for this house.
 

 
 
 

 

 This living room is where I found myself obsessed with sewing and some other crafts. I don't know why I found this house a bit weird or maybe because a friend of mine whose name is similar to my sister-in-law's puppy told me about something very frightening that I keep myself so busy to thwart the bad stories. This is the living room where I was struck with some kind of laser beam and laser beam that struck and wrecked our television goodbye.

This is the house where "celebrities" keep appearing at our doorstep portraying themselves as policeman and policewoman not in uniforms but with badge (the Asian guy is shorter and looks amateurish  while the tall woman is the CSI lead actress) , cable guy, realtor and house inspector and appliance repair man who pointed at me a cordless drill gun close to my face. A realtor called me (through phone)  looking for my husband sounded very frightened. Maybe my neighbor saw that the crazy guy will kill me and she phoned right immediately to stop the situation. Long story. Uhm, thinking about it, why the appliance repair guy pointed the cordless drill gun at my face when I opened the door. Weird eh? I told it to my husband he doesn't believe me. That's bizarre! Then the very unusual cable guy who is well you know that guy because he is a prankster, an actor. He was a cable guy for Shaw.  It was not a Halloween to celebrate trick or treat or being a victim of punk'd but I wish those crazies should be in mental hospital and will not be allowed to roam planet earth. If they are shooting a movie why not they announced in the area, warn the people first because it's the right thing to do,  instead of having been frightened of such freaky, bizarre situation.

No wonder I was offered a Vet. Medicine course instead of having a BS Psychology course in UP because truth is too many crazies in this world that you as a normal human being should be warned of. There are so much, so many humans acting as animals!

 The living room that is wholesome and enjoyable place for my children to watch their favorite cartoons and play their games however the space is really too small. It is for the same reason that every family will keep on moving to another place where they can be comfortable and enjoy harmonious peaceful life. Truth is my children outgrown the two bedroom house and it was time to move on to a bigger house.
