So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Chicago Patio Furniture Gives You An Extra Room

By Gwen Lowe


When you live in a house full of people, it can be hard to find an area to just sit and relax. It might be time to go shopping for some Chicago patio furniture to create a space for yourself. Start off with a chair and small table, and then decide what type of area you want.

If your back porch is simply a concrete slab, you can find an awning for cover, or perhaps get a small table with an umbrella to keep the rain and sun from being a problem. Over time, you can upgrade to an awning attached to the roof, a gazebo or even have the roof extended over the concrete.

Spend a bit of time in your chair relaxing. Have your morning cup of coffee out there, or a drink in the evening before going to bed. While enjoying a bit of quiet time, think of how you would like to complete the area. You may decide you want to keep it simple, and all to yourself.

Adding in a table and chairs for family outdoor meals, or to play some games in the evening, might be a good idea. The main thing is to keep it electronics-free. You do not want it to end up being the place the kids go for their video games. As long as you keep it to family time things only, you should be able to maintain your private area too. Just e sure to explain to everyone that when you are out there, you are not to be disturbed.

Take your time when choosing what you want to add to your outside resting area. It might be a nice place to entertain friends. Patio furniture is available in all styles and designs. You can make it simple or formal, deciding on your tastes and what it will be used for.

Instead of creating a spare dining area for the family, turn it into a place where you entertain friends. There are all types of patio furniture styles and designs. Find a nice sunroom sitting arrangement that can be used for chatting with friends or for business, and put out the do not disturb warning to the family.

One of the main things to consider when planning your little escape area is the weather. You will need to get furniture that is not going to be destroyed by the rain and snow. New patio furniture is created from resin that looks like wood, rattan or wicker. This will not be damaged by the weather, but you will need to bring in the cushions and wash them from time to time.

After you spend a season or two in your new area, you may realize that adding a roof and enclosing the patio will give you added living space without much fuss or expense. Use a space heater designed for outside in the winter and a fan or misting system in the summer and you will have created a space you can use for relaxing no matter what season it is.
