Lounge
My dad, accompanied by my son, came bearing gifts yesterday. A sunlounger & a big table that he built. Can’t wait to put it up somewhere in the garden. It makes such a huge difference having a good sized table outside. Great place to gather. Not that I have many people over anymore, but still hoping that'll change someday.
That’s actually the second sunlounger I’ve gotten lately. (A sign that I should get my pale body some colour maybe? ...naaah.) My sweet, sweet neighbour gave me a retro one a few weeks ago. Which made me extremely happy, plus it took me back to when I was little... We used to have those with us to the beach, orange floral pattern & all. I know I say this a lot, but damn I miss the sea… It's like I can smell it & hear it whenever I close my eyes.
Aaaanyway, getting these things just made me think about the exterior state of my house. It’s a work in progress, to say the least. Plus me being on snail pace doesn’t really help progress either. But, my brain still functions-ish...so my mind started drifting towards what I’d like to be done around here. Especially on the terrace above my garage. It’s a decent size & I’d really love to have an outdoor area up there with a pergola & a proper lounging area underneath to chill, come rain or shine I’d probably be there.
I’d also like new wall cladding, a french door leading out there, the list goes on & on… One day I might have it the way I want. Whether or not it’s in this place, time will tell. For now though I’ll sneak upstairs to lay on one of those loungers & maybe I’ll get to see a shooting star…or at the very least, catch a glimpse of a satellite gliding across the sky. ;)

I drifted into a summer-nap under the hot shade of July, serenaded by a cicadae lullaby, to drowsy-warm dreams of distant thunder. ~Terri Guillemets.
