Re: 10 things you should have in your home.

I'd agree with some of it, but not "collection." It seems like collections tend to get out of hand, & sometimes trigger other collections. Just ask anyone who's had to clean out the home of an elderly parent who had multiple collections.{#emotions_dlg.sad}

Otherwise, the others sound nice & make sense.

I have a shoe collection, A jewelry collection, handbag collection, and a yankee candle collection. I love them all! No living plants though, unless they bark I forget to feed them. hehehehehehe

Room for the collections and clothes which I don't have, but I still buy.

A husband who would help clean up the house which I also don't have,dh no help

A dishwasher which I have.

Someone who loves you and who you love, 2 cats which I love.

Do I get an A if I have all 10? Sounds like a good article. Thanks for sharing.

Re: 10 things you should have in your home.

GOOD HOUSE KEEPING MAGAZINE is not something I treasure to tell me what to do in my home. None of my towels match, I am not into art, I have no living plants and I could go on. Sorry, the list is a joke.

I just feel life is hard enough without a commercialized magazine telling us what we need in our homes to make me happy or to rate me on a scale of 1 to 10.

That seems like a weird and arbitrary list. Plant? Collection? Candle? Throw?
