My Husband Rocks Friday

Dear Darling Husband,

I can’t believe it’s gone. I could have seen us living there. I really could.

We thought it was our house of dreams, but it wasn’t. Because even though it seemed perfect for us, the dollars and cents were not working in our favour.

And our house of dreams? It’s not going to be something that makes us stressed out about money. It’s going to be a place we can comfortably afford. Because THAT is what is going to make us feel safe and relaxed there.

Thank for you being on the same page as me about it.
For feeling the same way about it as I do.
For encouraging me that we made the right decision.

I know our house of dreams is out there.
We just have to keep looking.

Love, your wife

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m a writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 12-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep them from taking over my life. Creating things helps.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time with her writing. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
