It's peaceful to the point that my fingers hitting the keys of the Mac are a bit reminiscent of a gong. Yes, they seem that loud.
What makes it even more peaceful is that my Christmas tree is all lit up and shimmering in the night. You heard me right... It's up. Not decorated, but up! I put it up because it takes me forever to fluff it out and make it look right, so I thought I would get a move on, especially since i put up 4 trees. Have I told you I love Christmas????
The irony of this peaceful quiet is that just moments ago the house was full of chaos. My nieces were getting out of the tub, water was everywhere, they were screaming about brushing their teeth and wanting fruit snacks, Matt was mad because he realized that a whole load of laundry he put in around 730 didn't wash because the washer is broken (like, we have to get a new one broken), the TV's were blaring with an outrageously good survivor (when will they vote Randy off???)... and now... nothing, not a peep. Just me, the Mac, and the tree... Sounds like a good children's book huh?
Don't you just love these moments. I rarely get these moments of total peace and quiet, guess that's why I am liking it now... uh oh, the heat came on. Not total quiet now, but a soothing hum to lull me to sleep. Guess I better shut it down for the night. 'Til next time...

I wish my brother would "tend" my kids. I know what you mean about the quiet though. Uh...is it bedtime yet?
Peaceful quiet moments are the best just to sit and reflect
The photo editing program I use is picnik.com best of all it's free!!! (if you want the extras it's $25 a YEAR! - so I went ahead and did that and haven't regreted it... well except for the extra time it takes me to actually get my photos posted!)
