home...

is where the heart is.  For me it's taken on different incarnations; sanctuary, escape, hideout.  Being away from home for an extended period of time has only deepened my desire to make my temporary nest warm, bright, and cozy.  Sometimes I need a smile, and a rub on the back -- I'm convinced that homes can do that.

These decals from Shanna Murray would no doubt do the trick.

p.s.
Stay warm out there - I woke up to snow yesterday, much to my delight.
