    Default Is your home...

    Do you think of your home as a haven to come home to or just a place to stay? Do you feel you are temporary there or do you never want to leave?

    I love my home and when I get home it's hard to get me to go anywhere. Some people understand but some can't fathom me not wanting to go, running here or there. I love being home just relaxing and enjoying my surroundings.

    I guess you could call me a homebody.

    My home is mostly my haven. But it is not where I see myself permanently. Someday I'd like a nice cozy cabin type place. But for now, my home is affordable, convenient, and comfortable. With some improvements it could be even better. I just never really liked the general layout.

    My house is my haven. I absolutely love being there and would rather be there more than anywhere else. I see myself being there for the long haul. I just can't see anything coming up that will cause me to want to leave other than something like a developer buying the land across the street (the only land immediately around my house that I don't own) and building a huge development, etc. I think that it is important that you have a place to go where you feel comfortable and safe.

    I vacillate, depending on the time of year. During the fall and winter, I'm all about nesting, but during spring and summer, I have to be out and about.

    I love my home. I can't picture myself moving again. This place feels permanent. I love to travel but I am always glad to come home. I never sleep as good anywhere else.

    I love my home and feel it is a haven for now. I don't believe it's my home forever though. We are looking at moving within the next couple of years.

    My home is my most favorite place in the world and I spend as much time there as possible. I hate when I have to leave it to go on business trips.

    I am very comfortable in my home, I work from home, so some nights its very nice to get out of house for change of scenery. Most days/nights are spent here and normally I am ok with it, unless its a long winter!

    I always design my home to be my family's haven. I want them to feel comfortable the minute they walk in the door. This is our home and our peace away from the rest of the world.

    My home is a haven but I have to get out of it every now and again. I love to be at home, don't get me wrong, love my home---it's like a family member as I grew up here....but sometimes I have to get away from it.

    I enjoy being at home in the fall and winter months but in the spring and summer I'm usually outside with my roses or garden.

    I'm not so sure my home is my haven anymore, but I do enjoy being here. My daughter needed help and moved back with her two little girls. I am always busy, between the girls and our mini-livestock. But I enjoy keeping house and making a home. I enjoy getting out every so often but I am not very into shopping and all the things I enjoy doing the most are here at home

    I think of our home as our haven. There are things I would love to change and I do know that we won't stay here forever but I do work hard to make it a place where everyone (my family) wants to be!!

    I'm the fourth generation to own my house, the third to live in it.

    I cannot imagine ever moving. I love it here.
