Pull up a chair.

My name is Janie and I am a chairoholic. I am addicted to chairs. Yes chairs.
I was doing housework today and decided to count my full-size chairs.
Not kid-size, stools or benches, because,  there are those too.
I counted... 35. I know, 35! I must try to explain myself. 
First there are seven at the kitchen table. That's acceptable. Right?
Two in the sitting area of the kitchen. Acceptable.

The front room has six. A rocker by the grand kids toy cabinet area.

 Four around the television and one at my desk. Normal, right?

Two in Stu's office. Still normal.


One in each guest room.


One in the nursery.


 One in the guest bath, kinda weird?



 One in my bath. 


Now here is where I get scared. In my room...FOUR. Ok, maybe that is too many.




. Who is sitting in these chairs? 
What are all these people doing while they are sitting in my room? 
Should I be serving refreshments?
So, I ask you "Do I need an intervention?"
Please come and judge for yourself.
And sit a spell.

when you put a number on it...i does seem wierd but I think it looks wonderful. When I think about it though, I have 1 in my office, 1 in my guest room, 3 in my living rooom, 5 in my kitchen, 1 in my bedroom, and 1 in my bathroom so that's12 and I live in a trailer! oh my, maye chairaholism is genetic! Also, I call the leather chair in the living room and the green chair in the guest bath. Sorry sisters, you comment second you loose. Have no fear, 32 chairs left to choose from :)

Love all the big colorful pics. Your house is sooo cute Janie. Had to smile real big to myself when I saw the house painting right by the door. Looks perfectly at home there. Looks like you are getting the hang of this blogging thing;)

You have a BLOG?!
What?
And, you have too many chairs.
They are all awesome though, so you're stuck.

I MAY have you beat AND I think we have fewer rooms than you :)

I so enjoyed this tour of your home! I ♥ your style.

By the way, I'll bet you have more pillows than chairs! (I know I do, too.)

This is how I think about chairs, sofas, well anywhere you put your bottom in public...they say "Welcome". Having that many chairs says a lot about you, Janie...your welcoming spirit.
