Favorite Spots: 03/29/07
Booking Through Thursday

Where do you do most of your reading? Your favorite spot? (Show a picture, if you want to!)

I seem to be getting asked about where I do my reading a lot recently. Here's the same photograph I posted last Thursday. It's the chair that goes with our couch. I do most of my reading here as it is where I spent most of my time breastfeeding Harriet.

Now my favorite spot at home to read is the couch. It looks just like the chair except that I can stretch out on it and I'll often fall asleep while reading there. I used to do most of my reading on until we moved here. Somehow in the move to Hayward, the couch became Ian and Sean's domain. Ian tends to dump his books on the couch too making it hard to just hop on it for a quick read or nap.

Then when I was pregnant with Harriet I had such bad sciatica that I couldn't lie down on the couch no matter how much I wanted to. The sciatica turned into tail bone pain while I was convalescing after her birth and it's only been the last three months or so that I've been able to lie on my back for any length of time.

Now that Harriet does now take an afternoon nap, I'm starting to rediscover my love of reading (and napping) on the couch.
