This is a rare early Saturday morning moment when the sun is
finally shining, the other people and animals are still sleeping in the house
and I am drinking coffee while the cat snoozes on my lap. After spending weeks
with my husband recuperating from his accident, waiting anxiously in hospital
waiting rooms while stressful procedures were being done, after frightening
phone calls that my daughter’s school is once again on lockdown due to some
cruel hoax played by a stupid, insensitive person, after
days of torrential rain that once again flooded our barn, this simple normal
activity of drinking coffee, listening to the birds chirp, feeling the summer
breeze through the open window is a thing of great beauty.
So, I will simply wish you all the same enjoyment of life’s
precious uneventful but oh so happy moments – have a wonderful time doing
nothing!
