Lately I have been thinking about downsizing after my kids leave to college. A lot of old warehouses in the downtown of San Antonio are being converted into lofts and condos. Years ago I wanted a southwest home, then a ranch home, then a cottage, and now a loft or condo is starting to sound interesting. I can already see an "Urban-Cowboy" theme coming to Texas. Condo living has advantages like associations that provides services like maintenance and upkeep. I want to unclutter my life. I also want to buy few yet high quality decor and not clutter my house with lots of small trinkets. Sometimes less is more. I was at World Market store this weekend and feel in love with their products. I liked the lofty-cozy appeal of their merchandise. I can incorporate my love for western ranch in a condo. Oh well, we will see where I end-up in a couple + years. For now I can dream, look at magazines for ideas, and search online for inspiration.
