I mention my hammock all the time here but it really is a wonderful place to relax and read. My hubby order a set for by birthday several years ago. It included plans for the frame, which he built himself (he's very handy) and a hammock. (Hammocks.com check it out) I was so surprised (I never would have bought one for myself) and thrilled! The first one was blue and green and lasted three years before it started to fray. My mom replaced it with a different version (thanks Mom!) and I was so happy to have my hammock back. That one started to fray last month and I was trying to figure out how to repair it when my hubby surprised me again (he's so great about that kind of stuff) and ordered me a new one. (Hammocks.com again, and it was on sale! I trained him well to be a smart shopper) It arrived yesterday and it's so awesome! I love the bright colors (yellow is my favorite) and it's so comfy. It doesn't look like much at first hanging on the frame but looks can be so deceiving.
It's all good for reading and napping! Thank you hubby. You are wonderful! Even though I hate when you spend the money and I don't need a single thing, you are so very thoughtful. I'm very, very lucky to have you.
Now that I've made you all envious *smirk* I'm going outside to lounge and read. And since it's starting to rain, again, I may have to do it all on the porch while I gaze longingly at my new hammock. *sigh*

As I'm reading your post I'm thinking I need to leave it up, so it is conveniently on the screen when my hubby comes in to the office! Although he is currently hanging a new ceiling fan, so he is also being wonderful :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE your new hammock!
Oh oh....I want one...*whining and sniffing....
ReplyDeleteAnd for Stacybuckeye...looove those ceiling fans, we have 9 in our house, counting one in the gararge, one in the laundry, and two outside under the patio cover. And it still ain't enough...I want three more! One in the kitchen, one in the spare bedroom and one in the living room! Couldn't live without them!
How great is that! What a great place to read and relax.
ReplyDeleteI would probably end up doing more sleeping than reading in that!
ReplyDeleteI can see why you love reading in that hammock. It certainly does look comfy and your hubby . . . . well, he is definitely a keeper! Lol.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, he sounds so thoughtful and loveable. You are truly blessed.
yay for you! haven't had the pleasure of spending time in a hammock. looks comfy. looks like a canoe in the long angle shot. but first i think i would need a good backyard with warm weather.
ReplyDeleteLove it! I want one! :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the hammock and that wonderful hubby!
ReplyDeleteAfter coveting your mailbox I came here to covet your hammock. Yep... I am envious.... what a great place to read, nap, escape....
ReplyDeleteI just love hammocks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great hubby. If I had my own backyard, I'd want a hammock, too. Looks like a comfy place to nap...I mean read after work. ;)
