 Feeling lonely lead to a quiet night
Tonight I had an opportunity to spend some time out in the adult world (instead of the single parenting I've been doing for several days.)  I was hoping to get out and do something this evening as I was feeling quite trapped today so I called my sister and thought we be heading out into the wild wild world, but she was unable to afford the gas to visit me, let alone go out and do anything, so I took a very long, very slow drive around town.  I was looking (or more like being nosy) at other's gardens as I could see them from the road.  I got a couple of good ideas and am trying to figure out how I can use those in my own gardens.

Then, I took a trip to one of my favorite parks in town and sat in the quiet world.  After listening to 6 year old and 4 year old language for several days it was a nice break to hear...well...nothing!  I walked on a trail I had never tried before and an hour later returned to my starting spot.  I could feel the power of the air in my lungs. 

It's amazing how everything seems possible when the world is quiet.  I would have really enjoyed having another adult to talk to this evening, but when faced quiet or staying at home...I chose the quiet.
