My Place & Yours - Blog HQ

Meet me at Mikes has a great theme each week, where they invite people to write a blog post based on a place/perspective. I found all about it through the lovely brownhairblueribbon girl. The theme is suggested by a different participant every Saturday, and seeing it is Saturday I thought I'd give it a go. This weeks theme has been chosen by Ninon and is all about where you read and or write blogs.

I tend to move around and my Blog HQ changes with the season. The yellow house is cold so in winter it is snuggled up next to the heater (usually with the dog wedged in between). But right now I'm writing from the couch in my lounge room. There isn't much natural light, which is kind of nice and the tiny pockets of sunlight are making soft shadows. And for a Saturday it is kind of quiet - I think all the neighborhood has gone down the coast for a long weekend, so all I can hear are birds chirping in the trees outside.

Often when I blog straight after work, I use this little corner of my living room. Sometimes it is nice to just stand after sitting at a desk all day at work - but it is usually because I've forgotten to charge my laptop and thats the best place for the mac and me to be.

My favourite spot to blog when the weather is good, is from the back step. At the end of the day it is a good place to unwind, drink a beer or G&T and throw a ball to that crazy dog.

  1. Hahaha. I'm pretty sure that if B could talk, in that last photo he'd be saying: "Oh FFS, just throw the ball and stop blogging! Also, the grass needs cutting." ;-)

  4. Ah yes. I chase the light a bit at our place with my computer.. especially at the end of Winter when everywhere felt a bit dark and dreary. I think a G&T is the absolute PERFECT accompaniment to a back step and a bit of blogging. Well deduced! x
