I’m the only one up! A moment of peace and quiet. Time for coffee and time to read another chapter of a book. Time to think and make a to-do list.
Things change.
Things stay the same.
It is still me and my musings, my obsessions. That continuous chatter in my head.
Goal for the day, for life: Be kind, not right.
Occasionally, I’m the first one up in my house. It’s always a treat! But it’s hard to maintain that kind of privacy. I have to LITERALLY tiptoe down the stairs so that my kids don’t hear me and come out of their rooms early in the morning.

For many years, I was the first person up using the time to read, prep lunches, and iron shirts – in that order of priority. Curled up in a chair in the cool living room with a blanket and a good book and just enough light to read is my idea of a good place!
