Mostly when I really relax it's in the shade of a huge tree on a lazy day, on a quiet dock with a friendly breeze, relaxing in front of a fireplace with a warm drink . . . lots of outlets. I just wish I had time for one of those.Fragrant Liarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09452052210826471034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4511287927381998273.post-34786774035701856762009-08-16T10:56:35.517-05:002009-08-16T10:56:35.517-05:00lee -- thank you. it has taken years of practice t...lee -- thank you. it has taken years of practice to perfect my technique.
