Leave a note

I came home from work one afternoon.

And the house was oddly quiet

On the table I found these notes:

One from my husband, he was working overtime

One from my daughter, she was at the gym

and one from my son, he had gone to his grandmother.

Suddenly I realized.

I was alone!

For two hours!

(a VERY rare thing)

The first hour I spent preparing dinner,

tidying up,

putting the washing on,

making a fire, lighting the candles

and the second hour

I spent sat on my arse,

looking in to the fire,

listning to the qiuetness,

thinking uninterupted thoughts

and not saying a single word.

It was a moment of utter peace!
