Next to the kitchen, the dining room, the living room, the family room, the back veranda, the side veranda, the courtyard, the foyer, the receiving room, and before the upstairs bedroom and the ballroom, this is my favorite room.

It has a fireplace, just like every room in the house. If you are wondering if it is ever used, the answer is yes. That is, if I am around and it warrants it. Otherwise, it is absolutely prohibited to use any of the fireplaces. Firewood is not available and is brought in only when needed.

These chairs were made three or four years ago. They were cane-back chairs before. Chairs are important in this room because...

"A library, a secret spot, so quaint, where treasures of the mind patiently await.

Forgotten times whispered by the past, and hidden gems unveiled at last.

The library is alive with knowledge to share, in this haven of books, we're free to dare.

Optimism fills the air as doors swing wide, wisdom the library does provide."

IT IS THE LIBRARY!

I had a brief meeting in the library, but not until additional decor was placed in room.

While You Weren't Here ¹

While you weren't here
I cried every night.
A million tears fell,
Still my heart wasn't right.

While you weren't here
I did what I could,
Hoping against hope
My decisions were good.

While you weren't here
I gained some in age.
Things just went on
And life turned a page.

While you weren't here
I just tried to go on,
Knowing what didn't kill me
Would only make me strong.

While you weren't here
A whole lot got changed.
My life became different,
My world rearranged.

While you weren't here
I had to learn to be alone,
To stand on my two feet,
To make my own home.

So that's where I am now,
At this stage of my life,
Still scared and alone,
Still coping with strife.

And oh how I wish that
Things could be different,
That I could go back
To a time in the past,

To a time before
You weren't here.
