Silence Is Sweet

I've received a rare treat today.

I'm at home . . .

Alone.

No kids, no hubby, just me!

 Can you hear that?

You can't hear anything, you say!

Oh, why that is called silence.  The absence of sound or noise . . .

And it is Sweet.

I plan to enjoy it.

This morning was all about productivity.  I've been making theses.



But now it's lunch time.  The painting and distressing can wait.

Instead I'll be channeling my inner "lazy bum"

ALL AFTERNOON LONG!

Wish me luck.

Robin

    Robin, love these. I'm on my way out to get clay. Are they clay or wood? Do tell all.
    Enjoy your afternoon!

    Love it I made beadboard hearts last Valentine's painted them white and then pink sanded them back and added twine... They hang from my chandelier and make me smile!

    I must admit it, I love my quiet times alone too. I'm interested to see what you're doing with those cute hearts. Keep us posted!

    Are those made out of beadboard? Silence is totally under rated. Sometimes I stay up late at night just to be able to turn the tv off and read a book.

    Good for you! Alone time is very important when you have a family, I'm glad you have a "lazy bum" side to you. We all need that occasionally!
    Hugs, Cindy

    Robin, I love my alone time!! Sometimes a little toooooo much !! ;-) I think it's important that people get to have their own space and time, even in a marriage (which I don't have yet.) Anyway, your little hearts look adorable!! Be sure to show us the final outcome!
    Enjoy the rest of your weekend,
    ~michelle~
