The Best Medicine

Ahhhh home. Too quiet. Too empty. Home.

I took the scenic route home last night, pulling into Fritz's around 9:00. I just wanted a drink. Actually I wanted a couple of them.

And conversation. A conversation that had nothing to do with loss or grief or lonely.

And I got both. I laughed and more importantly shared that laugh. I hadn't done a lot of that these past few days.

The car is still loaded. Today will be sorting stuff, clearing out, relaxing. Tomorrow? I think I'll get caught up with some of the work I let slide lately.

But this morning was perfect. Sunny, cool, quiet. My coffee fresh and hot when I pulled myself from my bed place. Curled up on one of the fabulous chairs on the sun porch, not talking - not even really thinking. Just.....sitting.

Ahhhh mornings in Paradise. It's good for what ails ya!
