My Favourite Space - One Word Project Day 2

This is my space. A fav space. I sit here, I read here, I think here, and I sleep here.

The sun shines in the big old windows and it's always warm but I do have a cozy knit blanket close at hand. Sometimes I read novels, other times a magazine, and other times my loved, tattered and coffee-stained book 'Simple Abundance'.

This spot is the epitome of simple abundance and I say thank you for it every day. A small bouquet from the garden sits on an old banged up antique coffee table I found a few weeks ago. I was going to refinish the table but after seeing it in my room for a while I realize it is the perfect match just the way it is so I don't plan to do anything with it.

My favourite room: clean and orderly - no chaos allowed here. This morning I was just (re)reading the entry for May 10 where Sarah Ban Breathnach wrote about Ann Landers' list of rules:

1. If you open it, close it.
2. If you turn it on, turn it off.
3. If you unlock it, lock it up.
4. If you break it, admit it.
5. If you can't fix it, call in someone who can.
6. If you borrow it, return it.
7. If you value it, take care of it.
8. If you make a mess, clean it up.
9. If you move it, put it back.
10. If it belongs to someone else, get permission to use it.
11. If you don't know how to operate it, leave it alone.
12. If it's none of your business, don't ask questions.

It's an oldy but a goldy.
