Favorite Places

I was sitting in the sunroom tonight thinking about a talk I have to give and going through some personal papers (trying to get inspiration and ideas about what to say).  The sunroom is definitely my favorite room in the house.  I actually spend a very small percentage of my time in there, but maybe that is why I like it so much.  It is more like a retreat. 

This is not a Better Homes and Garden shot, and the best view is looking into the back yard, but this is what I saw as I sat there.   It makes me feel happy and peaceful. 

The last two days have been wonderful.  We got all the products entered in the website, so now I am back to spending less time, and I feel much less pressure.  It is also perfect timing, as Lydia (our 14 year old) is coming in on Monday for a week.  I told her a few weeks ago that I as worried she would be bored, and her response was, "You and grandpa are never boring."  (Very sweet, but if she only knew!)  We are excited to have her come.
