The Driveway
I want a driveway, somewhere to pull into and park my car, my own special parking place. I want a driveway, with grass on either side and maybe a potted plant near the house. I want a driveway that I can back out of, that I can walk down to get my mail, from my own mailbox. I haven't had a driveway since I left home for college. I've always lived in an apartment or a condominium where I've had to share my parking spaces with other people, where my mailbox was jumbled up next to someone else's.
I'm not sure why I just want the driveway and not the house. I do want a house, but it scares me a bit. I am scared that I won't decorate it properly, that my mother will be so disappointed in my taste, or I won't have any taste, or my taste will be too country. (No, I know my taste isn't country) I definitely do not want many rooms. I like to "live" in one room and have a few others that I just visit every now and then. I would love to have a true master bathroom with lots of storage and a giant tub with a separate shower. Oh and I would love to have a wonderful chair right next to my bed, close to my bookshelves, where I can curl up and read for hours. A yellow chair. I am fine with my queen-sized bed, but a king-sized would be glorious, wouldn't it? And I want my bookshelves to be in my bedroom, I want to keep them a bit private. I could have decorative bookshelves in the den, but my precious books, they need to be near me when I sleep. I would have a kitchen too, a clean and precise kitchen, done in blue and yellow, French country would be my preference.
So maybe I do want a house and a driveway!
