My favorite spot to hide myself and get some moment of peace is my balcony. I get cut off from the members around and lock me in balcony seat on my arm chair and relieve myself from the extra burden, or tensed situation. Come alive in an hr or 2 and get mixed with the people around.

I have bought everything from pen refills to rugs & multiple ebay purchases of 2nd hand curios. Mostly now it is tickets for travel & accomodation, music events, movies etc but also travel insurance & even appointments can now be made online with some doctors & other professionals. Of course there is the odd pizza & I order wine online too direct from the cellar door. Security is the issue with unknown sites so I'm very careful & use paypal when I can.

I have a study nook right in front of the window, and away from the bed (a must!). Ample sunlight and a great view are important for a great work-from-home day!

You see, my kitchen isn't just where I whip up delicious meals; it's where the magic happens when friends and family come over. Picture this: it's Friday night, and the gang's all here. We're gathered around the island, sipping on cocktails and catching up on the latest gossip. The kitchen becomes the heart of the party – a place where laughter flows as freely as the drinks. And let me tell you, some of my best memories have been made right here in this kitchen. From impromptu dance parties to deep late-night conversations, it's where bonds are strengthened and good times are had by all. Oh, and speaking of good times, I recently introduced everyone to this amazing pico de gallo recipe. The fresh flavors added an extra kick to our gathering, and now it's become a staple whenever we get together.
