My Happy And Sad Place

There is a most peaceful, restorative place where I can spend hours to unwind and renew. Our sunroom addition becomes a showcase for nature's blue sky, rolling hills, river view; for many a year, my own magical space- clear walls, a glass roof with sun filtering through. My heaven on earth where life's joys multiply indoors, yet outside, neath the beautiful sky. Conversely, there is a vast space that I hate and so, I spend minimal time being there. It bothers me so to pull down the wood gate to our attic above as I climb each stair. Sixty-seven long years, to store things, our trait! Claustrophobia hits the moment I stare at all those saved items with no reason why! I'm out of there fast before I start to cry.
