Mari Realty Huntsville TX -- Check out my New-(ish) "Digs" Going to the office has become very pleasant. I remodeled! It is quite a challenge to decorate and furnish a small space where "function" is of primary importance. Well, it took a couple of "takes," but I love it now and my clients have said they really like it and it is comfortable. Cool story. One of my clients, a very sharp and successful young businesswoman came by when I first moved into the space to sign some paperwork. She had a seat and we chatted for a bit. And then--I asked the question. -----I asked her if the chairs were comfortable. Well, at the time I had 2 chairs that I had purchased from an antique shop in Huntsville (by the way our Antique Shops are FABULOUS!). I recovered them in some beautiful fabric. They had a "cushy" seat with springs and everything----really kind of old school, like mattress springs. Her response to the question: "are those seats comfortable" was---"no, not really." I loved it--- she just told me the truth. Disclaimer: I would say that I always want the truth but, there are times that I do not want to be told the truth, like "Does this outfit make me look fat?" You know, I like for my husband to "gild the lily" a bit on that one. Well, I love my New-(ish) "digs." I have been in the office for a little over 2 months. Last "remodel" was completed about 3 weeks ago. Let me know what you think.
