Why Home Decor?

Here's an excerpt from the article I wrote for Harold's Discount Decor - About Me page. It may explain a few things.

Why home decor? When I got divorced, I moved a few boxes of stuff into a storage unit and was homeless for over five years. I lived in the sleeper unit of my long-haul truck. Then I rented a 400 sq. ft. bachelor apartment and fully furnished it. I lived there every third weekend for four years. Then after my back injury I rented a large (to me!) luxurious one-bedroom apartment with a big balcony and bought a lot of furniture and home decor items to transform it into my home. I know what it's like to be homeless. I know what it's like to furnish and decorate an empty apartment. When looking at items to add to this website, I can draw on my own experience.
