Just now, quiet house.

Kids were with me though the holidays — so blessed — now back to their mom’s house for the second week of Christmas Break.

Quiet house, funny thing. I long for it much of the time, wish to have a little more quiet to get a little more of the everyday done, but then,

When the kids aren’t here, when I have total discretion,

It’s too quiet, and I miss them.

I miss them every time they leave. Soon enough I’ll adjust to the quiet, and maybe be more productive, more content,

But this quiet house is just too quiet, too lonely, just now.
