The cushion is a recent replacement, but the frame is original. It made with a wonderfully soft and cuddly fabric, with a cushion that&#8217;s perfect for sinking into to sit and read a book or listen to music. Getting out can be a bit harder. For days when I need a little added warmth, I keep a throw handy to cover up with. If I get ambitious, I can clean off a corner of the nearby bookshelf to hold a cup of tea or hot cocoa.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8663 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?resize=1536%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?resize=263%2C350&amp;ssl=1 263w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?resize=113%2C150&amp;ssl=1 113w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pjmaclayne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211219_185751_1_50-rotated.jpg?w=1548&amp;ssl=1 1548w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Second is the rocking chair my mother gave me when I was pregnant with my first child.

It&#8217;s been long promised to go to my daughter when the right time arrives. (The crocheted afghan on the back was made by one of my sisters.
