Returning to the Every Day Ordinary

I look forward to returning to the every day ordinary.

There is a semblance of sanity in the rhythm of the ordinary.  Time to wake. Time to partake in breakfast. Time to work. Time to rest. Time to partake in a midday meal. Time to work. Time to create. Time to prepare the dinner meal. Time to enjoy family over dinner.  Time to rest and time to sleep. A constant tick tock tick tock rhythm of days.

These are the days I prefer.  These are the days that I look forward to.

Sincerely

      I'm not sure, Barbara. I added the Followers widget just in case. I did follow you again as this is a new account.

      Your comment did, Karen! I have realized that I can comment in the Chrome browser better than in the Safari browser. I have no idea why! Good morning!

But oh! the blessing it is to have a friend to whom one can speak fearlessly on any subject; with whom one's deepest as well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely. Oh, the comfort — the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person — having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away. ~Dinah Maria Craik, A Life for a Life, "Chapter XVI: Her Story," 1859
