One Enormous Chair

Life is an adventure. What kind depends mostly on me. There are things that may be unavoidable, but there are a great many other things that depend more on me than anything else. I like to think that I use these in the best way possible for me.

I am one of those people who might not change things if something does not stir me sufficiently. Whether it is fear of the unknown, or something else, I have always been inclined not to mess with what works.

Fortunately, or perhaps unfortunately, I generally have a pretty clear idea of what does, or does not work for me and events seem to set their own pace. So now I am searching for a new home, a place where I feel comfortable twenty four seven. A place where my own values are not challenged regularly. A peaceful retreat I can call my own.

I am limited only by my own finances and desires. I have friends, or family from coast to coast so I am not limited by geography. I realize that I may want more in the future, but right now I am at that place from "My Fair Lady" where Eliza sings, "All I want is a room somewhere, far away from the cold night air, with one enormous chair, oh wouldn't it be loverly?"

I think it will be fun finding that.
