FALL Decorating - 2 Bedroom Apartment - Balcony, Bed and Granny Chic! 2021!

FALL Decorating Trends - 2 Bedroom Apartment! Decorate for fall and look like a pro! My 2 Bedroom Apartment is feeling and smelling like a magical fall escape and I want that for you too!!! I am no pro and I don't have a lot of money but it doesn't take money to put together a fall theme in a room, just imagination and passion and few trips to a craft store and perhaps a re-sale shop. I went to St Vincent DePaul this week. I also headed out to a Michigan farm for apples and pumpkins ( too early!) but I met Eddie and Joe and an adorable pony named Ida Red! I talk about the basics here. I don't show you what I think you should buy but rather go over how and why we capture fall in our home. I also tackle the very tough subject of a shocking discovery I found opening up files Bill left behind.
Thank you so much for being here!!! Please stay safe and happy this coming week and come back and see me and Desi. Please know how much you mean to me. I so look forward to seeing you every week and reading your words of wisdom and sharing your heart. You make my life so much brighter.
Love you to the moon and back and I always will,
xxoo Susan & The Dez

For some people it can be challenging to allow themselves to be vulnerable and express their love, affection and appreciation. Bill seems to have found his own way to express his love tor you, in a beautiful poem on a floppy disk. You needed some persistence and creativity to find a way to unlock its’ secrets. Wasn’t that the way his love for your was ? Allways there, dometimes hidden by his own demons . No doubts Susan, it is in black and white, you were loved and treasured. A truelly hartwarming gift.😘🌷

[@LittlePoet]

Oh dear alet...I think you expressed what I was searching for...

[@myozbubble]

Alet has said it perfectly!

[@penelopepivots3156]

So beautiful🥰

[@barbarawillis9407]

Perfectly said!! And Susan, your timing reading the poetry is wonderful!! Not many people can read poetry correctly, you definitely have the gift. Love from Idaho!!

[@kimlbk]

What a perfect video! I loved everybit of it but especially what you did making all those un-flower arrangements. They’re so organic and so gorgeous! I love how they look like they’re growing in the wild. I also loved the poetry! Swoon!! Great job on this video!

[@jeanniecollier6763]

When my dad was dying with cancer that Christmas we four kids gave him toys he did not have growing up but always wanted, I gave him a train set, my brother fixed up an old bike, one sister gave him a game and the other sister gave him a model car to build. The look on his face was priceless like he was back at 6 years old again at Christmas. He died a month later without touching any of these, but he looked at them everyday dreaming I suppose. I miss him so much!

[@dloveofgod8269]

Such a sweet & loving gesture Jeannie! I think you blessed his socks off. 💕

[@cremebrulee4759]

What absolutely wonderful, thoughtful, and loving presents!!! I'm sure you made his last few months brighter by having these presents to look at.

[@BeFree-BeFrugal]

What a wonderful idea

[@lynnsalberg5647]

What a thoughtful idea . I’m sure it meant so much to your dad.

[@gigi1332]

Missing a lost parent is so difficult . Our hearts are never the same without them. My sincerest love and prayers are with you 🙏

[@cameliawilks2049]

My husband died several years after we divorced. We continued seeing one another and talking, and even felt like we would end up back together. But he died before that happened. I keep his picture on my nightstand. I wish I had some of his sweet notes he wrote to me. Unfortunately I lost them in a Hurricane several years ago, and heartbreaking too, I lost the photos of our wedding and honeymoon in that storm. But no storm can take away the good memories.

[@sharonrynne2242]

I think you should open a little shop.

[@donnaweir9713]

Camellia, I love your name…. Those eaters and notes are still in your memories ask the Lord to remind you of them. God bless you

[@rs5570]

I’m so sorry. This is painful. If anyone has the opportunity to learn how to scan photos and upload them to the internet, the cloud or even send them to yourself in your email - you never have lose photos again. Sometimes I don’t scan I simply take a close up photo of the photo with my phone and they turn out great. I recently learned this. I know most already know how to do these things. I lost some precious photos but I realized I never really looked at them anyway. Lol.

[@sheilam7587]

I think you "found" the floppy disks and were able to open them at just the right time. You knew that Billy loved you and he left you the validation for your peace of mind.

[@lindaparker7199]

When my father was getting ready to die he told us that if love is there, it never dies. Your disc was waiting for just the right time to believe it. A touching legacy.

[@darlenemartin248]

I absolutely love the love you have for Bill. That kind of love isn't easy to come by. I'm happy you both found each other. May he rest in peace. We love you Susan.

[@nancybastarache6063]

We already have what we need. In fact, we likely already even have what we want - we just have to discover how to appreciate it.

[@LittlePoet]

Wow....I 100% think this was my message I needed to understand...thank you Nancy

[@RobynG70]

Your apartment looks so nice and the center piece came out so pretty. You have such an eye for beauty Susan... what a precious precious gift from Bill. There are so many "things' in life we could have but love is the the only thing that lasts, the only thing we can leave and take with us. ❤

[@LittlePoet]

You are so kind...I hope you are beautiful and well Robyn...I know life has thrown you a few curve balls...xxoo sending love and well wishes always, Susan

[@pollymorriss3001]

Oh beautiful Susan you seem happier today. My answer to the final question about your inheritance is : There is a time and season for everything....it laid silent until the perfect time for you to appreciate,remember,reflect and know you were loved and cherished. Have a beautiful blessed week.xoxo for Desi. See you next Saturday.

[@LittlePoet]

Thank you Polly so much! Beautiful words...

[@elizabethconroy7665]

Beautifully said dear Polly

[@cindym3340]

Congratulations on 50K! You deserve so much more! Love your Fall decorations!🍁🧡🎃 I’m so happy that you unlocked Bill’s poems. It was meant to comfort you now. I truly believe that!

[@csmilescsmiles4572]

She definitely does, she is one of the best utubers.

[@juliefizpatrick513]

I love how artistic she is and the poem was amazing. It’s so sad that such a beautiful couple got lost along the way…

[@CVenza]

It's called chasing an illusion. We all do that without realizing it until it is too late or so much time has passed that recovery does not matter anymore because we have moved on. Susan, your an artist and a writer in your own sense. Compose music to Bill's words & meanings It can help with healing from losing him. Your fall decorations are lovely and I just love how the simplest things make you smile. Happy Autumn lovely lady.

[@HeidisHereAndThere]

Hello sweetheart 💕 Regarding the floppy disc... God's timing is ALWAYS PERFECT! 💖🤗 Give God the glory! Blessings, Washington State 🙏🌲💕

[@christaballerinarukavina6034]

Whenever I would visit my mom in Wisconsin, I always took a trip to a St. Vincent de Paul in Port Washington - you could not find it the first time unless by happy accident. Once I did, I always went back and I always found such beautiful mid century Madonnas there. I love having Mary throughout my home. Remember how Francesca, in Under the Tuscan Sun, talked about Mary's presence in Italy? As if she were "Aunt Mary," she was that familiar to them.

[@patriciaeisert8483]

I just loved that movie…one of my all time favorites😊

[@Erika-Coach]

The timing of all this, must just be so emotional. For everything there is a time, a season. And this was the time. Such muddled emotions; warm, touching, “wishing I knew this sooner”. The fulfillment of now knowing? True love, caring never really died. You have it with you, in your heArt forever. Peace. Your somewhat bittersweet moments, showing on your face. Just touching. Hugs. Your fall decorating looks amazing. Warm, inviting and just beautiful.

[@ruthpabellon4366]

Loved the decor. When my husband realized he was gonna die he said to me. You do know I love right. It was important to him that I knew. I don't think he demonstrated it enough or so he thought. I knew. He treated me better than any other guy ever. But he never said. He just called me baby. ❤️

[@lindauribe6872]

Poems and notes.You received poems and I received notes.After my husband died I found notes to me in pockets and drawers closet and everywhere.It helped me somehow.

[@kathyphifer7546]

You had Bill physically for years. Now that he’s on his voyage you can still possess his voice through his writing. You didn’t need him in that way until now. He’s still filling your heart with song.

[@LittlePoet]

Gosh Kathy...that is so beautiful...like an angel's words. I hope your Sunday is a good one..xxoo Susan

[@kathyphifer7546]

@@LittlePoet wouldn’t it be fun to print all of his floppy disc “heart songs” into a soft cover journal? We all know electronic gizmos are so finicky, it would be awful to lose his voice. Hugs and kisses to you and Desi.

[@stillirise4289]

The floppy disk is a reminder to let you know that he always loved you and its Gods way of letting you know he will forever be with you in your heart and allow you to move forward by keeping a special piece of hm. Words last a life time allowing you to go back in time to those yesterdays..cherish those poems and keep them in your heart forever !!!

[@christined2495]

Susan, I truly believe you read those poems just at the right time, and when you needed them the most. Bill’s words are truly a gift to you. Maybe 10- 15 years ago they wouldn’t have had the impact on you as they did now… Bill must have been a wonderful, sentimental man, to be able to right such beautiful poems. Your Fall decor looks beautiful, it’s my favorite season, I hate to rush my life away, but glad to see summer leave, and fall begin Well we both went thrifting this week, and I also bought a vase for my spare bedroom…. We are so on the same wave length I will leave you with this, my favorite song❤️ “Though I know I’ll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I’ll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more” ❤️🎶❤️🎶❤️ John Lennon

[@radiola41]

Sometimes people struggle to put feelings into words. As a writer, I can unload a multitude of feelings into simple sentences that I am unable to say, face to face. A dear writer friend of mine, once shared with me a thought about the written word. He said, when a writer loves you, you gain a bit of immortality, as you will show up in poems, prayers, stories and every sort of heartache put to pen. He was a caring mentor for me to lean on when the writer block stumbles. He died 3 years ago, but like you, he left me a legacy in his written word. How very blessed you are to have Bill pen this love for you. It lives on, in the heartache, the wistful smile and the cherished memory you shared. No one can rob you of this. It is yours, forever. Love never dies......

[@StephanieJoRountree]

Such a beautiful inheritance!

[@LittlePoet]

Thank you so much Stephanie...what a beautful thing to say to me...xxoo love to you always, Susan

[@catmama54]

I love your apt and how you decorate. It’s very warm and welcoming.The love you guys had for each other is amazing. It’s better to have loved and lost then to never have loved like that.xoCathy

[@Fyrinspector]

I always decorated each holiday my Mom’s condo. Nothing over the top just things she could see on her coffee table or wreaths hanging on her bedroom door. It really helped her recognize the seasons/holidays as she got older. We would make an afternoon of it and I would always ask her where she wanted things placed. She especially loved Thanksgiving and Christmas. So happy you opened those disks. They were meant for you to read now. Kisses to Desi. 😎❤️💄Kathy 😷

[@jules7730]

[@gailhorrocks]

Funny how things are found at times you most need them. Before going back to our favorite place, over 2 yrs later after my husband's passing , I asked him to be with me . A large white feather came down right in front of me. I looked up and said, "You will be with me..." I cried and made sure my tears rolled down as I kept looking up.

[@juanitadempsey7037]

Thank u for posting new videos each Saturday. I so look forward to your weekly videos of you and Desi .

[@jdk5379]

it is easy to get caught up in the activities of living; relationships, caring for children or another, working, and all the things we may be involved with. i think it is in the quiet moments of tender grief that we can fully experience the love we have shared with someone. Love, Hugs & Joy to You, Susan - Thank You :)

[@kathyirvine6719]

Susan sometimes it feels like we don't realize what we are missing until it's gone and then we realize that is when we needed it the most. Much Love to You and Desi

[@vickimcgill8075]

I don't think I have any answer for you today, because I am also still searching for answers too. I just found your channel. Our stories are somewhat alike, except my ex has a new spouse. And I am alone. So very alone. But, your videos are helping me regain some hope for the future!

[@ShellyBomb]

Hello Fall ~ 🍁🍃🍂 Your "sanctuary" is so lovely, warm & welcoming; anyone that visits you is truly a fortunate guest ... 😍 I love you have Bill's poems and writings; and, that you printed, framed and shared with us "Sunday afternoon" ... you were / are loved Beauty! 🍁

[@sumar207]

Maybe, when Bill was contemplative, he could perceive the notion of love, togetherness, and the warm-fuzziness of being loved and in love with you, but in the day in and day out of daily life, with challenges and driving forces - it was not in the cards. But still, using his talent for writing, he let you know what was in his mind and heart - and that you would read it and take it to your heart when it was the right time.

[@dloveofgod8269]

Susan, Bill lives on in your heart but his written words mark the world. Thank you so much for sharing this one with us! 💕 Your fall decor is Beautiful! ( Where do you store all your seasonal gems? ) Blessings to you 🙏.

[@ShannonHagan]

Love doesn’t die when our loved ones pass away. It goes on and on manifesting in different ways and reminding us of that love. Your and Bills love manifest itself in those floppy discs. How magical. (Just like your fall decorations, magical) 💕

At this point in my life, age 64, the most precious thing I've inherited are the memories of the wonderful, funny, quirky, annoying, and above all, loving family I was oh so lucky to have. My friends accused me of growing up in Beaver Cleaver's house. No, my mother didn't mop the floor in a dress and pearls. She worked full-time at the local department store. My dad didn't wear a suit to work; he worked rotating shifts at a local factory. They worked hard to make sure my sister and I had everything we needed and an awful lot of what we wanted. My inheritance was given to me all my life, every day, from those who loved me most.

[@jeanettec6212]

Maybe you clinged to the love you treasured in your heart and you were convinced you didnt need more... and Bill got to express his love even now, to awake your heart to what you always knew. The Lord allows these things to show his love in times of much needed uplifting. Fall is definitely Thanksgiving!

[@conniehull3269]

I have discovered many cassette tapes and notes that my husband left for me. I knew, just like you, that he loved me before I found all of the things he left. It is certainly a mystery as to why he felt he needed to leave these things for me. As I proceed though this new journey of life alone, I find so much comfort in seeing some of his possessions, his notes and someday I will listen to the dozens of tapes he left for me. Today is my sweet husband's birthday. Today is not my day to listen to songs and comments he left behind. You have been left with treasures of the heart. The love we give and receive is the greatest gift of all.

You are way ahead of the game doing fall decorating. So pretty. The finding of Bills words was meant to arrive just when your heart was ready. You have it now and see how happy it has made you. You had a love that many never have.

[@lightbearer3643]

Hi Little Poet is good to see you, loving your fall decorating. Lovely you were able to unlock the words he carried in his heart. Things come when we are ready to receive them and those poems were part of that. You weren't ready for them before but you are now. A keepsake of the good times he had with you and his perspective that laid within him. It will be part of your healing from love, complete acceptance and transcending past all of it. You don't have to worry anymore of the past. Things played out how they were suppose to and you did the best you could with what you had and knew back then. I think you did great!!! We grow through life, we go through it and we get better at it with time. Love and light dear Susan wishing you a wonderful week.

Sometimes we need reminders of just how rich our lives are and in this video, it brings that vividly to mind. I look around my space and find those reminders of love too and it brings me joy. Thank you.

There’s no doubt Bill loved you. He expressed it a lot in his poetry. You’re blessed to have such a treasure. The poems are reassuring to you that his love was true and real for you. We don’t often lean on memories before our loved ones passing. They are warm, pleasant things we cherish long after they are gone though.

I think Fall decorations are my very favorite. Such warm beautiful colors. I don’t really change anything much for Spring & Summer. I love when Fall comes & I can bring out my favorite things. When it gets close to Halloween I add to the Fall decor. Can’t forget to add a little turkey for Thanksgiving. I used to have much more decor. I got rid of quite a bit because I can’t lift all the stuff out. My girlfriend really does the lifting & she complains she’s getting to old to do so much. I just tell her she’s a cranky old woman. Then she’ll see something on QVC for Fall decor & buy it. I’m so happy you found that piece of equipment to read the floppy disc. It was meant to be. I love that you framed Bill’s poem. That is a beautiful thing to do. It gives it so much more meaning. I really think you should add some more words to the poem & write some beautiful music. I loved your little friends at the farm. God bless you & Desi. Love you, Lucy

He is telling you from beyond, dear. The poems were meant for you to read when he was gone and to comfort and be with you. Love is eternal, Susan. Much love to you.

You do things so beautifully, but my favorite thing is the story you put together for us each week. Always heartwarming but most of all the truth of it echos in our hearts too.

I think the very best thing we inherit from a loved one is the memory of a shared past. That's why it's so important to make those memories now with the loved ones we still have. I love your autumn decor.

[@lindamele7329]

Susan, your home and patio look like a lovely Fall Wonderland, and the twinkle lights add so much to the ambiance. And always so good to see sweet Desi! And thank you for sharing Bills poem, quite tender and beautiful. Till next time

[@marilynhodgkinson5299]

Hi Beautiful Susan, and Desi you look so cute, love all your fall decorations absolutely gorgeous. We are now in Spring so all the trees are getting their leaves l love it. I had a very hard week my sister-in-law died and my daughter's mother-in-law died day after each other very sad. That was wonderful that you were able to have all the poems that Bill wrote such a special blessing. We are still in Lockdown so l haven't seen anyone for so long. Love and hugs to both of you.💗🐶💙

[@janonthelam3418]

Perhaps, if you had opened “Sunday Afternoon” earlier, you might have felt that you had to visit him. As it was, you visited him out of love and devotion not out of duty. And now you have opened this gift he left you not because he was rewarding you but simply because he loved you.

[@barbsams7774]

I am so glad I found this. You have such peace surrounding you. Thank you for sharing. About the pumpkins. I have no idea why anyone would pay $30.00 for a tin one. lol.

[@marysmyth8288]

Family and your wee Desi ,👀 You are a beautiful soul 🌌♥️ Mary Canada 🍁

[@ninaws1668]

It almost made me cry when you told us that you had been able to open these treasures from long ago. It's beautiful and precious and keeps Bill's spirit alive. Susan, his poems and stories will comfort you, I'm sure! So much is never said and you will always have his words and thoughts...Lovely how you combine your fall decorations. My favourite are your flower arrrangements and the metal pumpkins. Never seen them here in The Netherlands. Sending love for you and Desie ❤
