Finding a Soul Mate in Martha Stewart

It's been a long time coming. Buying my first home and wanting to make it perfect happened fifteen years ago. I'm not a perfectionist, yet I really admire those who are. So, I started reading Martha's magazine when it first came out. I felt a kindred spirit with her connection to the changing seasons and her description of her childhood. I'm not Polish. My mom was adopted, and I really don't know what I am or whom my people were. Looking at the pictures of the perfect meals and parties, I see how my life could be so much better. It must be something from my childhood (no doubt) that keeps my from cleaning this house. I could keep trying to find myself, but I'm going with Martha. I have the cover to her baking book. She looks great. Next week I'm getting my hair done just like that cover. Let the good times roll.
