July 19 2017

Sheepdog Nika used to live in the country. Then I took her to my place. When our princess Diana was born, we gave the dog to mom and brother

– This year was such a terrible summer that we practically did not come here. You have caught the first days of our stay. My husband always pulls me to the dacha, arguing that the child (the daughter of the spouses Diana is two years old. – Approx. “Antenna”) needs to breathe fresh air. And I’m still a city dweller. Plant flowers and weed the grass until it pulls. It probably comes with age.

– The house itself is twenty years old. Mom at one time received six acres with a small house 50 kilometers from Moscow along Dmitrovskoe highway, and then dad came here, he is our builder, and began to slowly bring everything to mind. In my memory, the house was rebuilt like this ten times. It was easier to demolish and install a new one, but we were constantly redoing something. They built a garage on the site, a bathhouse with a good steam room.

– My husband and I are fans of the Russian bath. We love to take a steam bath according to the rules: with a broom, a font, a massage … Even our daughter walks with us.

Here is my mother’s collection of items with Khokhloma painting

– At one time we all went here, my parents, me and my younger brother Nikita, celebrated the New Year here. Dad specially built everything so that it could be gathered in a large company. After his death, the house was closed for six years. But when I had my own family, they began to come here on the sly.

– Diana likes it here. We hung a swing in the kitchen and a playpen in the bedroom on the second floor. Most of all at the dacha, my daughter loves the dog Nika and the dangerous stairs along which she runs back and forth. We have already bought partitions and are planning to install them so that she herself cannot open them and climb the steps. We also want to make a large playground for our daughter in the yard: a slide, a swing, a sandbox. In the meantime, we are going to have fun in the city of Dmitrov, it is not far from here. There are so many different kinds of development and interesting things for children, take at least a pool in a fitness club where you can walk with your child.

– We had a pool on the site too. But in winter, the manager who looks after the house overlooked it. It was necessary to throw floats at him so that the ice did not break the structure, but he, apparently, forgot, and the sides collapsed. We have installed them, but have not yet completed them.

– In past years, we constantly fried barbecues at the dacha, celebrated something all the time, sunbathed, invited friends. The house has a full kitchen with a modern stove. It was made especially for Dima’s mother. They offered to install a kitchen in the basement, but my mother did not want to stay in a separate “dungeon” all the time, she said that she wanted to be with everyone. Now both I and she can safely cook, serve everything on the table and at the same time communicate with the guests.

These are vintage postcards. They got to Dmitry from his aunt Fisa

– In the kitchen is my mother’s collection of products from Khokhloma. Something was given to her, some things she bought herself. I’ve been collecting all this for thirty years.

– And on the second floor by the stairs there are paintings from the XNUMXth century. These are family heirlooms from Dima’s aunt’s father Fisa. She is from the ancient princely family of the Dyldins.

There is a lot of space, space at the dacha, you can arrange all kinds of parties by the fireplace on the first floor of the bathhouse, and play billiards on the second

Aunt was of blue blood, we got from her not only pictures, but also old books, postcards.

– There are such beautiful photographs. We all want to take them home. And in the billiard room above the bath, other trophies are kept – hunting. These are the heads of an elk, a bear.

The head of a huge elk under the ceiling is real. This beast was taken by dad

– My dad was not an avid hunter, just his friends took him with them.

– Before, all these stuffed animals hung on the walls. But they gather a lot of dust. Therefore, they were removed and only the elk were left. Once our Filipino nanny came with us to the dacha, so she flatly refused to go to the bathhouse and help put things in order. Fears. Thinks that the spirits of these animals live there. I don’t know if we will hang them again, after all, there was a fashion for such a decor a couple of decades ago.

– Just when the dacha was being built.

– We still somehow adapt everything here for ourselves, improve something to our taste. The bath, for example, was completely redesigned, a large shower cabin was installed, as in a city apartment.

Like almost everyone in the house, dad built a fireplace in the bathhouse.

– And we are going to build our own house closer to Moscow.

– For me, it’s still a dacha. And we want to have a country house. One that will be comfortable to live in, and not just spend the weekend.
