i can't wait just like you can't wait / until we're out past familiar gates / those seven words shook the life back in / so let's just run 'til we lose our breath.

the reminder chair.

once upon a time, this little thing sat in the corner of G-Sonny's bedroom. surprisingly, i was the only person who wanted it when it came time to unload her apartment, which was filled with 50 years worth of memories and life. it might just be the best thing i've situated in my house since the day i had my sofa and cuddler delivered. (if you don't know what a cuddler is, or don't own one, stop reading now, grab your car keys, and RUN to your nearest furniture store and bring one home. it will change your life.)

it has taken on the name "the reminder chair" because more often than not it serves a purpose of reminding me of things i need to do. like if i put a bill that needs to be mailed on top of it, i will actually mail it instead of burying it amongst piles of paperwork and waiting until i get a new bill with a late fee attached. not unlike how my college roommate used to have to leave our bills lying neatly on top of the tv so that we would actually pay them. sort of like that.

anyway, i love it and i think it looks much better in my house than it does in the Salvation Army warehouse.

  2. That is a beautiful chair, and a beautiful reminder. I have one like it from my grandmother-it's the old rocking chair we rock the boys in before bed. We fixed it up, but it's still hers. A wonderful reminder of someone special that we will always love. Treasure it always!
