  1. Imagine that a friend is coming over for the first time. What part of the house don't you want her to see?
    • My kitchen -- I just can't seem to get it feeling cozy
    • My kids' rooms -- they are the only parts of the house that I can't control
    • The master bathroom -- I don't want anyone to see the outdated fixtures in there until I get a chance to renovate
    • My house is never "ready for prime time" -- I'll just do a quick pick-up and hope for the best, or better yet, arrange to meet her out for coffee
    • My workspace -- even though it's my favorite part of the house, I don't want anyone to see my various unfinished projects, or my piles of supplies
    • My bedroom -- you can't even see the floor because there are clothes strewn everywhere
    • My drawers or cabinets -- they are liable to be jam-packed with all the things I don't have room to display on my bookshelves
  1. What's your favorite spot in your home?
    • My bookshelves -- I love looking at them and getting to see all of the various things that are important to me on display
    • My living room -- it's the place that most looks like the beautiful rooms I see in my favorite home catalogs and magazines
    • The kitchen -- I spend most of my time there
    • My closets -- they are tidy and organized and give me a sense of comfort and control
    • The couch -- I love to flop there
    • My workspace -- it's the one place that's all my own and where I really get to express my creativity
    • My bathroom -- it's my temple to myself, filled with pretty things
