Do you have a favorite place where you like to be alone? Have a spot outside where you cherish down time? Or the room from which you Gather?

If so, we want to see it! 

Post any images or articles about your Solitude to Capture This Quickie.

Okay, I may try this one. Have to get my son to take a pic. My master bath has a garden tub that I have candles all around and when I go in there and put on my music and take my wine, everyone knows to leave me be.

That is absolutely perfect for the theme, Katie!
Marianne M. Jan 2, 2008, 9:50am EST
Good idea ... but I'd have to clean it (my office) before I could photograph it!
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 9:51am EST
LOL! So would I!
arlene (no shame in my game) w. Jan 2, 2008, 9:55am EST
Me too! I could let anyone see this mess.
Victoria H. Jan 2, 2008, 9:55am EST
Alone time? What's that? LOL
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 9:58am EST
I am thinking this will inspire me to clean the office.

I hope you get some, Vic! Moms especially need it!

I have a place but don't know if I want to post a photo of it. But it is the upstairs bedroom. Of course, I can't say we ever get alone time in there because dogs do not beieve or understand the concept of alone time. But I do like the idea. I bet you get a lot of photos about this one. There is a place in Alabama and I don't exactly know where it is, but it is in a state prk of some sort with a cave and hickory trees, and if I could go somewhere for solitude that would be the place. It is beautiful.

I really wish I did, my husband was building me a beautiful new bedroom, the way it would have been set up was going to be my retreat and resting place, but he ran out of money and now I don't have any place of my own. Oh, well, life happens
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 10:15am EST
LOL! Lynn, we lock out the dogs when it's "alone time".

Oh no, Jodi! Well, you just finish it as the money comes in :)
Marianne R. Jan 2, 2008, 10:17am EST
Okay, so personal solitude. We'll see if I can come up with anything.
Susy R. Jan 2, 2008, 10:18am EST
Im so happy that CTQ is back up and running again! Thank you :0) Can't wait to see the entries for this new theme!
DIANE D. Jan 2, 2008, 10:21am EST
YES, HERE IN MY DINING ROOM, AND THE BIRDS ARE A CHIRPING, I CAN SEE MY FISH, AND IT IS MOST RELAXING.
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 10:38am EST
Personal or otherwise, Marianne.

Thanks, Susy!

Perfect, Diane.
Larry H. Jan 2, 2008, 11:09am EST
No there isn't anyplace here to be alone to think of any thing. Always someone wanting something.
Karolyn Q. Jan 2, 2008, 11:30am EST
I barely remember alone time.
Lucky Stars Jan 2, 2008, 12:16pm EST
Thanks Shannon. Should be interesting.
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 12:19pm EST
Or pets, Lar.

Oh no, Karolyn! Comes with being a mom, it sounds like.

Thanks, Bobbi.
carmel m. Jan 2, 2008, 12:23pm EST
hmm Very interesting concept. This sounds very fun. I look forward to seeing the entries.
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 12:58pm EST
Me too, Carmel :)
This is a great one. Thanks.
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 2, 2008, 4:40pm EST
NO prob, Reena! Wouldn't be the first time!

Thanks, Renda. Have fun!
Tina (a slightly smaller Spanky) B. Jan 2, 2008, 5:14pm EST
Hmm... I'll have to think about how to photograph this one...
Mary M. Jan 2, 2008, 5:50pm EST
I'll have to think about this too.
Jan S. Jan 2, 2008, 8:23pm EST
Good choice!
James T. Jan 2, 2008, 8:54pm EST
Is that solitude or solitary...like in confinement ?

Well, my whole house is solitary, but I spend most of my time in here in my messy office...with too much stuff and not enough room, thinking of moving one of my computers up to my bedroom so I can have more space in here, but then want to build another newer computer so what do I do???

Have to think about this, probably get side tracked and forget to post something as usual...

:O)
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 3, 2008, 12:40pm EST
Thanks!

James, it can be either of those! However you perceive solitude...
Amanda C. Jan 3, 2008, 1:02pm EST
Great theme!

Thanks!
☀ Aunt Shanny Jan 4, 2008, 9:27am EST
Have fun with it!
Sue M. Jan 5, 2008, 9:19am EST
Great theme!
am i late??? darn, i think i am.
Tina Coruth Jan 15, 2008, 2:33pm EST
Oh, oh. If you are late Leslie, then I am very late! I will keep my eyes open for the next one.

Help! Can you identify the "Small Mammal in Laos" (article) or the flower or fungus (in photo gallery)?
