Dear Louis.......


If it's real.....Handle it !!
Get over yourself !!


I had a post yesterday that was suggested ....
I might want to remove.
Who ME ???

I am selling my house in Maine and 
'Oh Well' 
I am not happy with a buyer or two.
And posted it.

Like I said;
"Oh Well!!"

When have I ever been censored....??
or allowed myself to be censored ??

Like....NEVER.




So TRUE
So TRUE.


I like to be told the truth.
It initially may make me weak
but 
will only make me stronger..


YES.



Being 
Fearless & Authentic 
has been something I have tried to live with,
and live by.
I am so tired of Fakes And Cowards.

This Is Sucking The Life Out Of Me


Buyers are sucking the life out of me !!!

I am selling a house in Maine (hahahaha).
That in itself is a joke.
We have rebuilt a classic cottage in Rockland Maine.....
We have rebuilt it from the bottom up.
New windows - new HUGE windows,
new kitchen, new floors,all new walls (insulation)
(Not to mention 90K invested)
It was so cold when we first moved here.
That was because the sub-zero winter winds were blowing right through the walls.
Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, it goes on and on.

NO MORE.

IT IS A NEW HOUSE. 
It is F#cking Gorgeous !!!
The buyers 
don't need to be unbelievably demanding !

OH.....
BUT THEY ARE !!!
I could tell you stories.....



I actually had someone ( a woman)
write me a sad sack letter who wanted to buy the house because 
she ONLY had 80k in cash.
Newly divorced.....
a dog.......
No Kids.

Are you F@cking kidding me ????
I don't know the last time I had 80K after a divorce.
Actually, I don't know many people with 80K cash on hand.





When I got divorced WITH A CHILD (4 ys old)
I had ZIP. 
NOTHING !!!!
I had to pay my EX 30K just to stay in my house.
Call me crazy but 80K can buy you a lot of mortgage.

Am I Right ????



I am just thinking of heading SOUTH.



Timing is the issue, 
and that has me by the 'Cha Cha's'


I feel beat up and exhausted.
Believe me I am....
And I am one of those fragile souls.

It took me a life time to find that out.
I always thought I was tougher than I really am. 


One thing I have learned is this.....

Panic attack ?????

Jump in the shower and wash your hair.
You Will Be Alright !!!
It Is Magic !!!

Trust Me !!!

Linear Kitchens



I love this look.
I want a table that is extended and attached to the kitchen.

It is so sharp !! 



Do you not love the cement floor ??
Or at least appreciate it ?



There is so much more here.

This Is What I Miss And What I Will Not Regret Leaving


                                         

I miss Palm Beach Design.
I miss Palm Beach.

I mean just look at the ocean...everything.
It is paradise.



This is not what I will regret leaving.
I am so done..........! 
Right now I am in the middle of a windy crazy snow storm.
A BLIZZARD. 
Yikes.


Skidding around is not my idea of a good time.
I am curious....
Is it yours ?

I mean seriously....
this is no way to live.
The poor baby dogs !!!!


But then there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
And it looks like this !
YES !!!

I am heading home and can barely stand the excitement. 

Everything is done.
The condo.
The Mortgage.
The movers....
Everything !

Free At Last !!!

Nor' Easter In Maine - I Can't Take This Anymore !



This is like living in a mini hurricane during winter.

It's crazy.
But it is dramatic and beautiful in it's own way.

Again...CRAZY. 
I am from NYC & Miami Beach.
This is amazing.
FUN - NO, IT'S NOT.



The streets are treacherous.

I must say to someone from my background....
this is beautiful.
BUT
It causes electric outages all over the place.
Which is no fun !!!!!!!!!!!
                                         

See what I mean.....
it is pretty.

Let's just talk about the cars...
They get frozen over.
Just try and open the car door to get in.
NO LUCK.
I hope you are not late for work.
I was !

SOON
I will be back where I do belong.
Home in Palm Beach County.
Is this gorgeous or what ?

I can hardly wait !!!! 

Pray for me that everything goes smoothly with my new condo in West Palm Beach Florida.
I need to be home again.

About Renée Finberg

I have been in this business since the age of 22.

I love what I do and cannot imagine my life without Design.

Design Challenges are great.

And because of those challenges

I have imported fine antique pieces from Paris,

Designed and Manufactured Furniture,

Created Fantastic Window Treatments,

And solved all kinds of spatial & architectural issues

With my unique style.

If I can't find it, I create it.

My rooms would make excellent movie sets.

I am a visual, tactile and audio sensitive individual.

Creating is what I live for, not math, not spelling, not science.

Just Great Design.

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.

Private Paradise
