Oh, Barry....
Well, if you do own an early 20th century estate, why not go all the way?
A you can have parties, and have doggies (Dinah!) and have fun.
Oh and have a handsome husband.
XOXO
P. S. @BarryDixon is on insta and his page is a mood.
That's the title of one of my favourite songs. The most lethal, the most essential thing is to hear your own voice. Also, keeping up with the idea of writing as catharsis, this one blog is dedicated all to myself. More solipsism would be hard to find. And I like it like that. Oh, and this is a queer (and self-proclaimed 'ADULT') blog so go ahead, make your day... mine is done.
One thing I disagree with: coasters are just plain good manners. And allowing people to smoke inside the house is not right.
ReplyDeleteThat said I lovelovelove the house. It's a bit frou-frou for me with all the things everywhere but the space and rooms and windows I love. That stair hall with the window seat under that huge window is stunning. I'd just give it an edit.
xoxo
Coasters EVERYWHERE!
DeleteAnd I kind of agree it's a little bit older-gay-man-ish when it comes to decor but I'm sure everything is top quality.
The window seat!!!!
XOXO
I'm in complete agreement with Bob on the smoking. Also, the red wine drinking is a plus. Perhaps if the background elevator music was eliminated, they might come across as less pretentious.
ReplyDeleteWho knew people still smoked?
DeleteAnd less pretentious? With all that money? I doubt it.
XOXO
Big says,
ReplyDeleteIt's beautifully restored to period. Not my preferred style, but well done. The drench of busy patterns in the bedrooms is waaaay too much. It is awfully dark in there --- but that's how they kept a place like that cool in summer months.
XOXO
P.S. Tried to find out the acreage and what came up was that he was selling.
It IS well done.
DeleteThey do have a style. And I don't mind the bedroom. You may be right about it.
And I think it IS big.
XOXO
The style of this has me written over it!!!!!! And would you believe at two separate times, I dated two different guys that drove a Rolls? They were both assholes.
ReplyDeleteI know, right???
DeleteI think you have that expensive, well made, classic decor style I can really appreciate.
And if a guy drives a Rolls, he is most probably a dick.
XOXO
