Cozy and Comfy

Don't you love the sound of rain cascading down a waterspout?  That tin sound reminds me of childhood.  Those luscious moments when all you have to do is 'be.'  Listen to the melodic tapping.  The skies are gray and I am more than content to be inside.  I will bake in a while.  It is a day to enliven the senses!

Morning came early as one my dogs escaped her little room.  She does that often by pulling the gate toward her.  After six months houdini figured it out.  I can't scold her.  With her wagging tail and happy face, it is delightful to be greeted by her.  The other dog follows the rules and stays behind the gate. I release her quickly so she, too, can enjoy the fun.

Morning begins in one of my favorite rooms. Some rooms are downright comfy.  You can't wait to go into them.  The colors resonate, the textures.  The artwork.  That is how my second bedroom is for me.

The reds, corals, aqua and green with a little cream blend softly.  The valances over the window remind me of some of the wonderful places I stayed in England.

Now for a spot of tea.
