Wait -- don't run away from me screaming -- it was just one of those silly "imagine if..." things I thought I'd toss out. You know... ehem, heh, heh ... a joke -- get it -- full time job? Yeah. Bad joke. Imagine now, if you would, tossing a full time job into the mixing bowl of craziness…

Wait — don’t run away from me screaming — it was just one of those silly “imagine if…” things I thought I’d toss out. You know… ehem, heh, heh … a joke — get it — full time job? Yeah. Bad joke.

On occasion, my husband will say "Do you want to go to a coffee shop and journal or read or something while I hang out with the little man?" and I'll say enthusiastically, "OK!!!" but that's only every now and then, so it's usually the couch.

Boy, do I understand. The back patio. When I go sit out there, no one is brave enough to come near me. It means I'm regrouping. Trust me. I understand. Boy, do I understand.

The back patio. When I go sit out there, no one is brave enough to come near me. It means I’m regrouping.

I just enjoy the silence. Sometimes I pray. But always it is silent. Because that is what I don't get enough of.

I live in a small apartment that I share with another person. But if I get up very early in the morning I can create a quiet little well of calm at the beginning of my day, there in my living room before my roommate is awake. It's amazing what a difference it makes. But also, it's amazing how even though I KNOW what a difference it will make to my day it can still be TORTURE to make myself get up early to take advantage of it. Especially in the cold dark mornings of winter... Mine is not so much a place as a time. I live in a small apartment that I share with another person.
