I'm delighted that Ruth Bonneville (remember her from my late-summer photo shoot?) is coming to my home tomorrow to take photos for an upcoming feature in the Toronto Star. After hearing the great news about this feature, my husband John and I went into high gear making the place photo-ready. Believe me - you look at your house very differently when looking through the eye of a camera.
In the end, the photo shoot provided us with the much-needed motivation to finish up those last things after moving in three years ago. Things like getting some art framed, replacing the aging TV with a more compact flat-screen and resetting the bookshelf so that books aren't piled two-rows deep.
I came downstairs this morning and looked around and felt satisfied. The place looks gooood. And ready for a party. Let's party!
Your photoshoot sounds awesome! Any reason to get the house together is good enough for me.
Let's party!

Hmmm...think we all could a photoshoot or some similar reason to get "those things" done!

I hope the photo shoot goes well tomorrow. Can't wait to hear how it went and see the results.

So true, Carolyn. It's amazing how stuff piles up in a matter of days and weeks. And very quickly, we don't even notice the piles anymore! Heidi

Hi Kal - I SO agree! But our breakfasts at Stella's are the closest I get to partying these days! :) Heidi
