Describe the feeling, emotional state, or “vibe” you’d like for your home to convey to your family and guests during holiday gatherings, meals, and celebrations.I want to have my home ready for company and I want to have all gifts ready long before Christmas so I am relaxed/at peace with my space and my efforts this season.
What gift would you most like to receive this year?A new Apple laptop and new art programs.
I just reread your question.
I have always wanted to see the Eiffel Tower.

As an adult, I moved in with my mother. We live on different floors in the same house. She has the floor above me as well as a small portion of my level for her laundry room. When she “cleans” she puts her clutter in the space between mine and hers, which blocks the connecting stairway from my level to hers. I then have to put her things away to unblock the stairway. She just makes towers of things that she won’t let go of if I ask her to do it. Do you have any suggestions on how to stop her from using this area as a dumping site? Thank you.
