Women's Issues?

The extension of my bedroom closet is on the wall. That's where I hang my collection of scarves, hat, bags, belts, etc.

The bag that I was holding on the photo above was the latest sewing  project I had.


Finished product/sewn and designed by me


The house we are currently occupying is much bigger than the former house a year ago but it has walk-in closet. The closet can fit in a single bed that's how big it is. The house that we moved in  September 2018 has 3 bedrooms only with 1 1/2 bathroom. The living room is just decent size, big enough to accommodate our bookcase, sofa set, 2 recliners, our widescreen TV and china cabinet. The kitchen and linoleum on floors had holes and bathroom lino need to be replaced. It's old and outdated.  My husband looked at me in disgust. He can do it, he is a carpenter. However, the house is not ours. The renovation of the house should be done by the landlord/house-owner not by tenants. It should have been updated and upgraded before we moved in. We are just renting the house. OMG! Now you know. With the monthly rent made me think and fantasize I'm at Twin Towers with swimming pool and all the amenities and luxuries  combined. However, that's not the case here in Canada. Housing rental/mortgages in Canada is super high, you can reach the sky.

I don't like clutter or being disorganized. I hate mess and being messy is not my thing. I can't ask for a bigger closet. Because when you have bigger closet, then my husband's work tools end up in a monthly rental storage for $150/month. Then our 25 ft. size boat ends up at the parking space of my sister, at my sister's house or sometimes parked at Andy's front yard. Yup, nothing perfect. No perfect house and no perfect yard anywhere. Better watch HGTV for Home Renovation. I like watching Fixer Upper and Home Town. Know why? The houses in the US are much cheaper than the houses in Canada. It's hard to believe!

So, better to have a bigger garage, a workshop for his work tools and less storage for my clothes and accessories.

Better cut short of this story or else the landlord might get pissed off and we'll find another house because of my complaints. Ha! LOL.
