    The Quiet Place

    The Quiet Place

    I like to start my day with a few minutes of quiet contemplation and this is usually where I practice. I have a sort of bay window in my bedroom, about 18 inches of space to collect dust. I have a battery powered candle sitting which I use sometimes to change the mood. I’ve had the wicker rocker now for several years and have it broken in to fit my tush. It is beginning to be brittle so every so often I find pieces on the floor. This window faces the south-southeast so early morning sun will be my companion during the summer. I use the fleece blanket, draped over the end of my bed, to wrap around my legs on those colder winter mornings. It is my quiet place.

    My sister and brother-in-law left Saturday afternoon for their trip to Europe. I am now officially on sabbatical. Hope they have an Awesome time! And, there is no envy on my part. 🙂

    Back to Study Time

    Studytime
    Study time before the rush

    Well, school is back in session and with classes starting campus has transformed, again. Traffic is a mess again with cars and only one passenger. Bicycles and skateboarders are everywhere. Most coffee shops are packed with students writing and researching. However, if you go early enough you can find a table to enjoy a latte, mocha, tea and a bit of quiet.
