[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These things will not bring you happiness. [/quote] Just curious: why do you say this? I feel better spending $ on decor than on fashion etc because I am creating the atmosphere in which our life happens, that shapes our kids’ aesthetic taste, etc. I do go to friends’ Costco furnished houses and wonder if we are wasting money but I don’t think I would want to live that way. Once you get a room to really come together it is a daily source of pleasure and satisfaction — for me, anyhow. For my family too I hope![/quote] Nah! I love going to people's nicely furnished homes and seeing their decor but I don't think they get all that much joy out of them after the newness wears off. I don't, anyway. You get used to your surroundings very fast and then you just find things to criticize. Hedonic adaptation. There are always things you wish were different/better/newer.[/quote]
