10 Minutes
It’s 9:00 am and I’m sitting here enjoying the sounds….of silence. Well, it’s not complete silence. My computer makes a constant high pitched humming noise and the keys do make a bit of noise as I type, but other than that—-silence. Well, the coffee pot is gurgling in the kitchen but that’s a good sound. So other than the humming computer, the sound of typing and a gurgling coffee pot—–silence.
Oh, wait. I just heard Rusty barking and what’s that? Footsteps above. Kids exchanging morning pleasantries and laughter.
Oh well. It was nice while it lasted. Maybe I can at least get that cup of coffee poured before they figure out that I’m downstairs.
