I just bet that you have a special place where you sit/rest/read/nap, etc. I do. I call it my "Place", but actually it is a recliner I bought my first husband for Father's Day one year *many* years ago. It is a beige color and very comfortable. I especially like it because I can sit with my legs elevated off the floor which is very helpful for my back pain.
My "Place" is in the living room and there is a nice window looking out over the front walk and driveway just behind my left shoulder when I'm sitting in my "Place". To the right of me is a table I had built especially for my cookbooks about 40 years ago. It has heart shapes cut out of the wood and I love the design (since I designed it, I guess. LOL) It has two shelves plus the top. The top usually contains a mixture of papers or drawings, my little computer, and pens, Kleenex, a hairbrush, and the ever-present something to drink.
The second shelf holds our printer/copier, extra ink for said copier, the cord for my camera and my cell phone, and other papers.

| 40 Year Old Table with all my "stuff"! What would we do without STUFF???? |
The bottom shelf holds extra paper for the printer/copier and some boxes with software in them.
On the floor to my right is a plastic container holding magazines and books that I plan to read and behind that is my every present hot pad. Oh, yeah, there is also a drawing tablet behind that.
To my right, behind the table, is a floor lamp that also has a high intensity reading light that is great when I'm drawing while in my "Place", which is often. Attached to the lamp is a fan too.....so you can see I have ALL the comforts of home here in my "Place".
I would love to hear about YOUR "Place"....because I know everyone has such a place. I believe that some therapists might even think this is your "Safe Place". It isn't what I would consider MY "Safe Place". Now that's an idea for another slow blog day.
BEST MOMENT TODAY:
Taking a nap in the middle of the day.
ZENTANGLE FOR TODAY:
Am working on a series of 5 small pieces that will fit in a black frame that has these areas split up...hoping to have it finished for my Art Show on Friday.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Susan, I kind of like it too. It needs some shading before I get it into the frame.
