A Quiet Day
A wonderful change to my recent weeks.
I woke up early, enjoyed a cup of coffee and the quiet of my office before the official start to my workday. At daylight, our valley was blanketed in fog ~ which gave an aura of peace.
An hour later the sun had moved in ~ quietly and without fanfare.
I just had to take a barefooted walk in our yard and smell the newly-mown alfalfa in the neighboring field.
Then it was time to work.
I spent most of the day ~ sitting in this chair ~ adding information to my database and fine-tuning a director’s newsletter, following my proof readers’ observations.
Our daughter-in-law, Kristen, needed our van today, because their Suburban was in the garage. After supper, Cerwin asked when I wanted to drive to their house to get the van. I said, “My body needs the one-mile walk. I have been sitting too much today.”
The evening sun created a beautiful silhouette of a neighbors farm.
Kristen was making grape juice ~ by a steaming process.
She asked if I wanted to take a jar along home. Guess what I will be drinking for breakfast tomorrow?
It surely was a wonderful day.
