White walls, bright walls. Rugs over sisal? Yes! Rugs over sisal? Horrors, no!
Curtains. Drapes.
Less is more. More is more.
We are bombarded with conflicting advice. Excellent and entirely different recommendations can come from two beloved sources. I am haunted by Van Day Truex's pronouncement that kitchens must always be white, which if white is right and not is wrong, deems me forever wrong.
In the past year there has been a lot of conflicting research on how best to detect and treat breast cancer. Self-exam, mammogram, surgery, chemo. And the thought of it all is so scary. No supposition for most of us, but often a very near reality. Anxiety can lead to immobility.
Talk to your doctor. Find the best path for you. It's a little bit like painting the test swatch on the wall - everyone can agree on this. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Talk to your doctor about the best course of action for you. More information is available at the
National Cancer Institute and the
Susan G. Komen Foundation.
