Such peace...sitting here...finishing my morning coffee out of a mug. The kids are off at their grandparent's. The only noise is quiet banter of morning TV talk shows. The sun is streaming through my window, glinting off the snow, and the droplets of water coming off the bay window roof. It is soon time to get moving. It is time to get dressed. As much as break is meant for rest, it is also time to accomplish some stuff, while we have some time. But for now, I just take in the peace, and quiet, and stillness, of some time, at home, alone.
