Give Me My Adirondack

Please let tomorrow morning be a tinsy bit cooler
so I can just relax a little with a cup of something
 I don't know yet what I will want ~ either good coffee or green tea. 
 I want to just sit.  I want to think of nothing.  I don't want to be rushed. 
I don't want anyone to call my name.  I don't want a horse to neigh or a dog to beg for attention. 
I don't want to have to figure it out.

 

Adirondacks

Never be afraid to sit a while and think

  5. Nothing wrong with those wishes. I hope you are able to get a bit of rest and relaxation in sitting there on your lovely porch in that wonderful Adirondack chair. Love the color of it too.

  9. Yes, how did that work out for you? ;) I sat in my Adirondack this morning with the goose as my coffee-drinking companion. It wasn't a quiet time. There's a nice story to go along with that, but I'll save it for later.. lol. Love that red chair!! -Tammy

  15. I do love those chairs. They have a special way of fitting people, no matter their size and the big plus is the arms can hold a drink!

    Enjoy!
