It used to be fashion magazines. I'd flip through all the latest additions and crave, like an addict, the clothes and, even more so, how skinny those models were. I still probably have a case of low grade body dysmorphia but those fashion magazines no longer do it for me. Now it's all the home decorating magazines that get me going. How I lust for the latest issues as I linger in the magazine aisle at my local supermarket with the children safely ensconced in the daycare there - it is too good to be true. Ohh and hitting howardhanna.com after the kids have gone to bed and I can be a virtual voyeur and homes right close by, it makes me drool with envy. I know I posted the dream home that I discovered just a few short weeks ago but now I've really and truly found
my dream home. It's in Fox Chapel and has a lovely shady, if somewhat sloping yard, with goregous moonflowers by the front door. It needs about $100,000 in renovations but once this place is done it would be to die for. I know it doesn't look like much but trust me this old style bungalow has so much potential. Now if only I could find a kindly contractor who'd be willing to take me on as an apprentice, and fund me all this money, while I start on this project
