Recently an old friend of mine called me. She had just moved to a new place and was starting over with her life. Her boyfriend of 8 years, left her six months ago because she gained weight. She told me the day after he left she went to the store bought some hydroxycut and never looked back. Now she’s down to a size 3 and is smaller then she was before they started dating.
Why am I telling you this? Well the reason is. I find many people who go through a change like this one are also ready to change everything else and in my friends case it was no different. She wanted me to help her find some great things for her new place. She was throwing everything out that she had when she lived with her boyfriend and starting over. I haven’t met with her yet, but I have made a few stops at places and found some great things.
When your going through a change like this the best things to replace are the furniture and if you can afford it the location. She already had the location done, now she’s looking for more. I’ve picked out a nice cushy sofa and recliner for her space. Color hasn’t been decided yet but they comes in cream, red, blue and brown. So something should work. I haven’t found a bed yet, but I think I will have her come with me for that one.
I figure this is a start, we will add some paint and make some of the things she did keep look different. It’s hard moving from one phase of life to another, especially when you thought you were happy with the phase before the new one. Hopefully I can help her see that she does have something to look forward to. I think she does see that already, but some good interior design may just be that kick she needs to get her back up and on her feet.
I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?
