| Lately, my normal morning start about 3.30am. Just the bats are awake. Even the lazy python who lives in the chook hose won’t stir (mental note to relocate him). This morning is special, it’s nearly 7am and nothing is awake demanding food or attention. It’s quiet. Just the hum and snort of hubby’s sinuses. Even the bad tempered parrot is silent in her happy hut. Moments like this, I savour. As I closed my eyes, I thought about the bird cage, must change the paper ... then there is the wash ... must put that on, oh, ... and the watering of the thirsty plants. Must do ... after my sleep in. Maybe, I could sneak out and water ... feed the pups and clean the rubbish while putting the wash on. Yes, then have a ‘sleep in’ moment. Or I could stay up and clean out the pantry of the expired products. A noble task to save the family from an agonising death by expired noodles. My maternal instinct kicked in. WDC people may understand that compulsive need to do everything before allowing themselves the pleasure of writing. I think my avoidance gene is still alive. Going to attend to changing parrot paper then see if the quiet moment is still available before the day kicks in when I will have the mental awareness to check the status of that lazy python. Have a pleasurable writing Sunday. Regards The Red of Quiet Bliss in Small Bytes :)   |
