Emails We Love: From Mary, Who is 70 Years Young

"I'm writing to say I LOVE LOVE LOVE your site.

Every day, I spend at least 30-45 min checking out everything. What a great way to start my day!!!!! Your site is so so interesting to me! I love seeing how things are changed, made better and enjoyed.

Thanks so much for the enhancement your site brings to my life!!!!...

I'm 70 years young, live in a 2bed, 2bath condo that is a few steps away from country, using many family pieces of furniture, as well as finds that have been accumulated as I've lived. Also, I'm a "pastel girl in a bright-colored world." I plan to stay here until they carry me out or lead me by the hand.

Thanks so much for the enhancement your site brings to my life!!!!

Mary"

First of all, there's nothing wrong with a good pastel!

What a thoughtful, sweet note. Reading it just made me smile. Thanks for bringing a little enhancement to my life, Mary :)

Mary, I'm with you. I start most days with Apartment Therapy, although it takes me at least an hour. I live in the country and have super slow internet. I get a lot of housework done while waiting for the pages to load. I'm with AustinSarah2, also not too far behind you !!

What a great attitude. We can all learn from you, Mary. Seeing life as a joy, a sense of adventure, a way to create and improve...every day. Wow. I wish you the very best!
