What do you read to relax and let go of the cares and stresses of the day? Sometimes I like to read cozy mysteries, when I'm not reading or writing blogs that is :)
I may have picked this up as a relaxation method from noticing my mother reading Agatha Christie mysteries when I was a youngster. The books were around the house of course but in those days I was more interested in baseball and what was Duke Snider up to with the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Nowadays though a nice cozy mystery, an easy chair to relax in and a recollection of my father reading the newspaper in the big red chair as we used to call it (Dad's chair) brings forth a smile and makes it easier to flow into the story.
Goodlife.

In these times where so much is changing we still must do our tasks to
live as well as possible - like going to the store, for example.
It is all right...

I remember that chair so well - it was red horsehair (I don't think it came from a horse!) It would never have occurred to us to sit there when Dad was home. But we did use the blue velvet love seats as a boat when pushed together - remember?
Hi Kim,
Yes, it was really Dad's chair.
I remember the blue love seats but I don't remember boat :) I know you've asked me that before.
So good to hear from you here.
Goodlife.
Times change though. I don't read cozy mystery books anymore. These days I'm more inclined to read autobiographies and memoirs especially when they're written by friends.
Goodlife
