Quiet time

Do you hear that???

Listen....

I hear the ceiling fan singing its own particular song: part whir part rattle.
I can detect the buzz and purr of the computer parts doing their thing so that I can do mine.
I relish in the distinct sound of keys being individually pushed to create the words I see simultaneously on the screen before me.

Yes, the simple sounds of an indoor morning, relaxing computer side with ample coffee for sipping...dog laying quietly beneath my feet, basking in the quiet as well.

Dexter has been successfully delivered to his new home in Tennessee.
Let me tell you he was not excited about the 12 hour journey in a rental truck.
He is a bit of a scare-dy cat, if that isn't too much of a stretch for you to digest. My sis and I finally figured out to cough heavily when releasing the parking break as to distract him from the noise of it. I couldn't be more serious!!
We figured this out in Hope Arkansas while sitting in the parking lot of the Subway waiting for an exit strategy to present itself. Boy, that Watermelon Festival traffic is a bear!!


My first chore of the day (after coffee time of course) is to remove all evidence of his existence from my home.
Okay, really that just means to mop.

And mop I will.
And listen to the quiet I will.
And take my girl for Sushi I will.
Yup, it is just us girls today so we are gonna have Sushi!!

Here is to getting back to normal, and laundry...on Wednesday!
