Surroudings

I am a person strongly affected by surroundings. Surroundings are as much emotional as they are physical. I am suffocating myself by not completing my own residence. I need order, I need structure, I need a place for every little thing (including my sanity).

I am working hard at utilizing my creative brain, but find it challenging while at home. We have exposed window frames. We have no trim or moulding. We have no flooring in the upper level. We have exposed duct work in the basement. I feel incomplete and can't taste the creative juice while in my own sanctuary.

For now, I will use my imagination and pretend I am here:

Happy place.
