On the patio, right beside the gated car exit is a smoking area. I'd like to call it a temporary space because I'm giving in to hubby's so-called stress-releaver. I don't know when I'm going to get rid of it though. (sigh)
Going south from here is my mom's bedroom adjacent to the main gated entrance. My mom enjoys crafting jewelry here (as you can see above). When I don't see her in the workroom (below right), I know for sure she's sitting on the carpet focusing on little things, which I suppose eases her day.
By the way, this room is also where I take most of Sophia's portraits. Natural light here is fabulous.
Hubby's number one rest-and-recreation is his online games. His kingly laptop takes most of the space here. I had this glass top moved close to the living room to make way for a work-and-play room by the terrace. However, the supposed-to-be dining table functions more like an anything-but-plates counter.
As for little Sophia, we know kids don't get stressed a lot. But one of the things that will make her cry is not being able to play with friends. One time, she got heartbroken with an online gamer who kept "fleeing" from her. Of course, she quickly got over it.
My stress-releaver? I can't say it's really Flickr, Facebook or any online activity. Sometimes, they do . . . when you're really able to connect. But if not, it can weigh you down.
The real thing that makes me smile is seeing my family de-stressing themselves... :)

...and maybe if I can go back to being young, I'd be happier? Hmmm...
I mean, just look at a child! There's so many things he or she can do in a day... I guess the only thing that will make him or her worry is not being able to play the next day. That simple.
I wish I can be as carefree as a child and simply stress-relieve with a little play-dough. Don't you?
