Cozy spaces



We've lived in four different places since we moved to this island and they've all come with unique advantages and disadvantages.

Only one of us fits in the kitchen at a time and we have to figure out who will wear the headphones when we have meetings --but it's our home, it has what we need and I kind of love it. It reminds me of backpacking. Our in-home activities include looking out the window and cuddling with the dog. We talk more and have fewer distraction. It's cozy. Roomier houses are probably preferable in countless ways but there is something to be said for an unembellished life and in having only the essentials we come to appreciate what is essential.
