This is my request. Show your favorite place to relax. It can be a chair, corner, ledge, or limb. :) Get out those cameras and take pics or just write how you feel when you are in your "zone".



The first stop today on our tour of relaxation is this chair. I inherited it from my father-in-law when they moved to their smaller place and he was given a "real" recliner for Father's Day. There just wasn't room, so it came to live with us. It's my favorite place to read the newspaper or a book or sit and watch TV. It was sitting in the middle of the room until the boy decided it would make a cool jungle gym and knocked it over. It lives against the wall with a table for coffee on my right and a reading lamp on my left.

This is my outside relaxation spot. My parents gave me this wooden porch rocker for my birthday and a matching one to my husband on his birthday. It's large and roomy, with wide armrests for setting your drink down between sips.... The chairs overlook our backyard. Perfect for spying on racoons or watching the boy splashing around in the pool. I rarely read out here though. There are other things to occupy my eyes.


This is my busy relaxation post. The computer is sitting in the "junk" room with a futon mattress and a little TV so I can keep up with weather or watch something else while I visit with my friends in blogland or work from home. When I am here, the world narrows down to me and my thoughts and I come here first thing when I get up and the last thing before bed. And sometimes I visit throughout the day (especially if I'm working).

So, I kind of broke the rules. Deb only asked for ONE relaxation place and I gave you three. Oh, well... I never was very good at following the rules exactly!
