Balancing Act

1 Balancing Act

Do you ever feel like your entire life is a balancing act? That you’re juggling too many balls and teetering on the edge of…something? Family, work, friends, your health and well-being all battle for first place. It can be daunting and even a bit frightening, leaving you ready to throw your arms in the air and give up.

Finding the fulcrum can be a challenge. Taking a deep breath, pulling up your boot straps and forging ahead is all you can do. Sometimes it takes a hand to keep you from slipping into the abyss.

But when you finally level out, the reward is a calm confidence and an inner warmth that comes from knowing you have harnessed all of the knowledge of your test.

The four stools from Kuro that conveniently match the Comfy Chair I showed you a couple of weeks ago are available at a special price today for The Neighbourhood – all four for 100L. Make sure you juggle things so you can get there today.

Sneaking Out Of The Guest Room

1 Sneaking out of the guest room

Shhhh…be very, very quiet. I have been a house guest and when I woke up very early this morning I realised I didn’t bring a thank you gift. I’m going to sneak out of the guest room quietly and rush to the market to pick up a lovely breakfast. Since I rested so well in this comfy bed with soft, downy pillows and warm blankets I am feeling perky and sure I can get back before my host arises. Such a playful dress and handbag just add to the spring in my step.

There are loads of events running right now, so there is no shortage of places to shop. Sadly, they aren’t featuring food so I hope I can find a nice cafe someplace close!

Comfy

1 Kuro Comfy Armchair

I think everybody has a favourite spot, whether it is a a room, a location or simply a piece of furniture. The place we want to be when we’re sad or just need some alone-time. Maybe it’s even a chair we can curl up in with a comforter, a cup of tea or a glass of wine. Familiar, homey and most of all, comfy.

This chair definitely is a candidate. With 15 poses – not all of them sad – and its bright, cheery fabric and fluffy pillow it is just about perfect.

And absolutely comfy.
