My Soulful Home.
People basically go out and buy everything they feel like they should have gotten for Christmas but didn’t..I don’t actually shop on boxing day cause it’s scary, but I did invent my own sad consumerist boxing day holiday.

It’s called Birthday Boxing day.So every year after my birthday if I’m disappointed, I get to go buy myself presents and not feel guilty.Only now there’s more.

Valentine’s boxing day.Halloween boxing day.

Anniversary boxing day.. Our 6th anniversary was on Saturday, and although it wasn’t lame or disappointing at all, I did go buy myself a present today.
Just keeping up with traditions, you know?It’s just a rocking chair.. And it’s pretty.
They both are.. They’re inside right now, just because it’s so cold, but they’ll head out to the back deck probably next month..They have this really glossy navy blue paint on them right now, and I’ll probably play with them just like this for the Summer, but in the Fall when I bring them back in, I think I’ll probably paint them something a little more neutral, so I can continue to use them willy-nilly in any room of the house..
The next morning after I put these together, I came out of the kitchen to find that Kennedy went straight for the chair and was rocking away happily while she watched her cartoons.If that doesn’t tell you it’s an approved purchase, I don’t know what will.I pulled in the driveway the other day after dropping Kennedy off at school and I thought to myself “I live here.
