Chaos at Healey House

You can see that I still have a long way to go for my room to be "shipshape and Bristol fashion"! But I am making progress...

You can see some of my treasured possessions acquired during the "first" ten years: the Akhmim-woven bedspread; the carpets and kilims (I have too many to put them all down at once, so I rotate them!); and photos and drawings. The lamp on the nightstand is an original University of Chicago one (this belongs to the house, but I lust after it!). And that pile of ironed and folded laundry was just brought back by one of the housemen. Yes, my laundry is done for me!

But I have my priorities! The Autumn door decor had to go up right away! 

I'd like to take this opportunity to do a quick survey. My friend Sonja responded to my first post of the season as follows: "Please post more daily, kind of routine things. I would love to see photos inside your library." So, please let me know in the comments (If you can. If not, drop me an email.) what you would like me to share with you about my life in Luxor. And yes, Sonja, I promise to share photos of the library!
