I'm in a couple of groups in Facebook for homemaking and decor. People post pictures of their rooms, discuss paint colors, little fixes, seasonal decor, etc. Fun groups, nice people, no drama.
Anyway.....anyone here old enough to remember when the internet was young and everyone's website was full of flashing words and different fonts and colors and mouse trails? Well, that's how I feel when I see some of the photos people post of their rooms - a console table with 5 signs above it "Gather" is really popular as well as "Family" and "Blessed" in different fonts and sizes. "Farmhouse" cracks me up when clearly there's nothing farmhouse about the place. Bible quotes - Dr Seuss quotes...signs that tell me I'm in the kitchen. Signs in bathrooms that say "Calm" (really? I'm pooping! Leave me alone!) I seemed to have missed the sign train. What's the point? How long has this been a thing? When will it stop? How will I know what to do when there's no sign on the wall?
