It's such a responsible thing to teach people to stop and look around and repurpose things. I haven't ever liked "cookie cutter" living--everyone has everything just alike.

      My husband is worse... whenever he sees something he likes in the street trash, he tells me "There's a great heap of street trash outside, I know you like street trash!" - and then he's disappointed when I don't come home with the exact item he had his eyes on BUT DIDN'T MENTION because he doesn't want to seem like the kind of person who adopts furniture from the street trash.
      And they say women don't know how to communicate. Haha.

      my hubby can I be a good sport sometimes. depends on how many other "projects" I have going at the time! usually he says something like, "what are you going do do with that?" or " do you REALLY need that right now?" but if I can tell him what it's for he will help me get it. or shake his head mumbling, "i don't see it, but ok.." He told me along time ago that he has stopped underestimating the power of my imagination. That if I can see something in something than it's there, I just have to make it so.
