9-birthday
I forget by a day every year — happy birthday to we — we’re nine — yesterday, Oct. 26! That’s like, what — 35 years — in blog years? To celebrate, I’m taking Friday off to go estate-sale-ing — see you Monday!

    Happy Birthday Retro Renovation! Love your site, Pam, and all the helpful information. I have been a lover of everything mid-century modern for many years now and it was so great to happen on your site a few years ago. I have enjoyed it ever since. (P.S.–If you are looking for a new Kate, I’m your woman!, except I’m on the East Coast but guess I could help you remotely!)

    I just found your fabulous website this year. It is so wonderful. Always save it to read for when I have plenty of time to enjoy it. I lived through those special days and your posts and info bring back so many wonderful memories. I so wish I had appreciated this style sooner, as when we moved into this house we had a 50’s bathroom and kitchen and tore them out. I could really kick myself. Amazing how one’s style preferences change over the years. Keep up the great work. Happy birthday.
