Sun room ... My Haven

You've seen me write about my sun room over and over but it was pointed out to me recently that I've never actually shown it to anyone.  This is the room I start my day in and many a night end my evening in.  I sit here in the mornings and watch the sky awaken with color, talk to the owl that either sits in the deep V of the large tree behind me and to my left (I usually sit on the couch) or he sits on the fence post that is just past my sun room to the right.  Either way, we get to spend a good 20 to 30 minutes together in the mornings as the sun rises and world gets busy.  I love listening to the songs of all the different birds that visit.  We have a lot of trees in the backyard and beyond in the greenbelt so we get a variety of birds and there are many mornings when I have a full chorus going on out there.  There's a woodpecker out in the greenbelt that pecks away every day.  He starts early, usually right after sunrise.  The bees and various other insects have their own symphony going on.  It's always so musical in the morning.  Add that to the color changes as the sky awakes and becomes fully awake, it makes for a beautiful day.  This plus coffee, how could a day go wrong.  I make my list of what I need to do for the day.  I read my emails.  I catch up a bit on Facebook and I might even be able to get a chapter or two of the latest book I'm reading in as well.  All of this before 7am.  Yes, the sun room may not be everyone's cup of tea but it's definitely mine.

the sitting area of the sun room.  I usually always sit on the couch.  

As you can see, I keep my favorite books at hand.  I also keep my favorite music and movies.

the dining area of the sun room.  When the kids are home we have breakfast here.  In the evenings, when it's not too hot for Gary, we sit out here and watch the squirrels play while we eat dinner.  It's such a nice place to have a meal.

As always, the cats have their places here as well.  They are very much a part of our family.
