Life is back to its familiar accomplishing and busy pace.
I was just thinking a couple of nights ago that longed for the moments of sitting still like I did that couple of months a short time ago.
I miss the warm embrace of not wanting to be anywhere. To sit quietly. To read for fulfillment. Refreshed in faith. A very intimate time with God.
God heard my hearts cry.
I am now sitting at home on a massaging/heating pad. A pulled muscle in my back on top of an infuriating day in the office, I threw in the towel in and came home early.
Hours spent at home on my massaging/heating pad, under a warm blanket, with my favorite glass of sweet tea (and a chocolate snack cake from my girls lunches), along with three funny/motivational/inspirational books, and a Lowe’s Spring Updates Creative Ideas for Home and Garden magazine.
My planets have lined up! That isn’t even the best part … the pouring rain is perfect tranquil touch.
Ahhhhh … no television, no kids. I close my eyes to embrace this moment.
Mariah texts me and I wake up. Wow, I fell asleep!
Billy calls me every 20 minutes worried that when I say “I am fine” that maybe I am not really fine. He is very high maintenance naturally, but I appreciate his concern.
My home is quiet. I’m as comfy as possible. I am surrounded by good reading.
I love this … sitting still.
