Being grateful for sitting out in the garden:
I am an outdoor living kinda girl.
During the warmer months, I can happily spend all day outside.
When I lived in Sydney I spent most of my days in the great outdoors. In fact, even when I was home I’d be enjoying the luxury of my outdoor sofa on the verandah whenever I could.
Not surprisingly, I find the colder winter months difficult.
Especially at the moment, what with living back in the somewhat cooler English climate, and living with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which means I have to spend most of my days resting.
And as much as I love my bedroom, my sanctuary, I long to be outside.
Ever since spring officially arrived a few weeks ago, I’ve been eagerly awaiting a warm sunny day to appear so I can take my resting back into the garden.
And today, it’s finally here.
Yipppeeeeeeee!
My folks’ garden is the perfect little sun trap, surrounded by soothing nature and free from the cool wind, which today is blowing in from the east.
I’ve set myself up on the sun lounger and my heart is feeling so happy at being able to gaze up at the brilliant-blue cloudless sky, to breathe in the cleansing fresh air, to watch the dancing butterflies and the bumbling bees happily exploring the garden, to listen to the melodic birdsong in surround sound, and to feel the comforting warmth of the spring sunshine on my grateful face.
Long live spring 🙂
You’re totally right to want to spend more time outside! I think that’s a lovely outdoor setup you have there.
Thank you my lovely Xxx
