Aaah the serenity



Enjoying the sounds of silence.....for the FIRST time in 4 weeks, I am home alone. That's right. NO sick kids. NO school holidays. Just ME. I am not putting any music on, nor tv, nor washing machine or dishwasher as they would all detract from the glorious sound of nothing. Just some sweet birds twittering...oh, and the coffee machine melodically gurgling (albeit very softly).

Aaaaahhh. How I have LONGED for this day.......

  2. Oh Deb, thank goodness you are back - I've missed you. I hope you really really enjoyed the serenity because those of us who had to return to children are very very tired tonight. My throat hurts and my brain hurts.

  3. I have a vision of you STILL sitting at the table, cold coffee in hand, frozen in contemplation and serenity...Adan silently places a rug over your shoulders as the night air is growing cold and you think you hear the distant sounds of children being bathed and fed dinner....
