Home is where.....

I was given a lovely little plaque by my new baby granddaughter (via her mum) it says,
"There's no place like home,except grandma's. It really made my day as we moved Neave them so I could see my granddaughter more.

Having moved many times in the first six years of married life (four times). I began to think that home was where my furniture was!
Now it is where my comfy bed and pillow live.

Where I can lick the inside of yoghurt pots!

'Quiet enjoyment' of (your own) home is a legal term - and anyone who breaches that can be challenged in court. Which is why it is now easier for councils to evict tenants who have made others' lives a misery. Sadly, it is more difficult to deal with home owners' bad behaviour - and if on the receiving end of this, you may have to resort, as we did, to the Environmental Health Department and the police.All well now where we are concerned - but it took a long time.

Because of this, I would now say now- home is where you are safe. Where you and others are not threatened with - or suffer actual - violence. Where your property is not damaged. Where you do not have to live with noise nuisance 24/7. Where your environment is not polluted.

Everything else is a bonus! For me now, the best thing is being able to have friends over, and know they can relax.....smile

where I can shout at the tv

turn the air all shades of blue

wear comfortable clothes & no bra (stops me getting fungal infections, great to go without)

eat what I want, when I want

go to bed when I want, get up when I want (unless I've got an appointment etc)

my safe place, just me & my cat (sadly no DH now but still lots of happy memories)

Home is where my dogs are !! lol

Home is looking at the small things around you, that bring back memories of special people or places and you wouldn't part with for anything.

Home is the one place where ,when you turn up,they have to take you in
I forget who said it....

Home is house number 17 and i hope not to have a number 18 but have a feeling there will be.

Home is where my heart is after 8 moves in 13 years ,accommodation and home are two very different things...my home is where my family is

Home is where the cats think they're boss!
The GC can leave their stuff
DH can make a [permanent] mess
Chaos reigns
Dust collects
I can gaze out of the window and watch the birds

Home is where..... when you have to go there, they have to take you in

Neversaydie and Salmo- the saying is from the poem by Robert Frost. can't remember the title. I'm going to look it up as I remember it was a very moving piece....

A cat never thinks it's the boss. It knows it's the boss

Indeed it is Robert Frost, I didn't know that cassandra264. From "The Death of the Hired Man". I've just googled it. "http://www.bartleby.com/118/3.html
"Home is the place where, when you have to go there,
They have to take you in. I should have called it something you somehow haven’t to deserve.”

Do any of us comfortable bras???
Shutting the door and be in an oasis of calm.
Where my beloved garden is
Where I can be warm and cozy away from the elements.

Goldengirl your house sounds just like mine ?

Robert Frost ,of course SalmoWas paraphrasing and too lazy to look up
True ?
