My place and yours - 5 minutes peace.

This week's theme queen Pilgrim wants to know;

Where do you retreat to for that sanity-regaining break? I am interested in what or where in your home is your sanctuary.

My home has no such place. I have no special chair or corner. I am talked to when I am in my bedroom, on my sewing machine or on the toilet. In fact the toilet is probably the joke telling or question asking place of choice, because whilst sitting there I am a captive audience.

My sanctuary is not a place, it is the contents of my red bag.

With a crochet hook in my hand and some cotton in my lap I can relax and unwind. I can be part of whatever it is that is going on but I can also be off in my own little world. If I am creating and my hands are busy, then I am ok.
