A little alone time..

I am officially up to 22 skirts as of today.  Considering everyone has been sick and I am now sick, I think that's pretty good.  Almost halfway there and only 12 more days to go!

It is a quiet house today.  Child is at school, dog is at the groomers and I can hear the hum of the refrigerator.  I think after not being alone for so long the quiet is welcome, but a little disturbing.  How much more inspired I am when I know that life is abounding and chaos is surrounding me!  Even if I do get interrupted with small requests like, "How do I spell, "Once upon a time?", or the classic, "Mommy! Come see what I did in the bathroom!".  I think I am one of those people who need to feel and witness life around them in order to function.  I definitely would not be a good candidate for solitary confinement.  Although, I have been known to lock myself in a closet in order to think clearly.

So, now, in this quiet, I can feel my eyes becoming very heavy. The rarely heard call of the infamous "Nap" beckons me.  I have heard it still does exist in this home, but you can only find it when there is no one around.  My new calling...and since I am feeling under the weather, I must heed it.

Blessings on you day and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
