My favourite spot at home

My favourite spot is on the beanbag on the deck, reading on a sunny day (or if lazy, watching the wee tot blow bubbles). There is no better place for me. We live in the inner city, and we lead very busy lives - we spend the weekends catching up with friends and family, so are rarely around the house. If we do have a lazy day, if not at the movies*, then I like to read in the shade on the deck, looking at the sunny outdoors.

I love where we live as we're five minutes from everything, and often zip off at a moments notice to see a show or free activity in the city. We gladly sacrifice the pool, garage & big back yard for proximity (though ours is big for here).

I'll be honest, I'm not really interested in home decorating - even paint colour bores me, so my partner chose the lot (I'm concerned with the cost, I'd always ask "Are they the same price? Then I don't care, you choose.") But the outdoor beanbag was my choice, and I adore it. I am gradually filling up the house with beanbags, to lie by the fireplace and read (the armchairs aren't comfortable) and for the kids to watch tv on (real furniture is permanent - beanbags can be piled up out of the way until needed). The favourite of all though, is the faded outdoor one, which lives on the deck, reminding me to make some time and come and read...in fact it's sunny so I might head there now.

* The cinema is my other favourite place, but it's not in my house - lotto win pending, maybe it will be in the house in the future.

Linking up this old post with #MakroTex  on My favourite, as other than no longer having the tot to blow bubbles with, not much has changed (the tot has morphed into someone much older). I still love to lie on the deck on that beanbag that's even more faded than before, and I still love where we live. I still love the cinema, but lotto win is still pending.
