Friday night alone....to myself...

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, a night to myself....
My dear spouse has a rehearsal.....
It's rare that I get to have the house to myself these days...
So there's a log on the fire, a cat on my lap and my music on the record player...
Fleetwoodmac...a nice change from opera, classical and the rest of my partner's music...
Some days I forget that I love music and have my own taste...
Finished my abstinent dinner...boy it was delicious.
Reading a book that I received for Christmas...
A God book...
An ongoing conversation with the Master......
I can't read it for long, it puts me to sleep everytime...
Takes me to a very gently sleepy place...
In a good way...
Not boring, but rather very soothing.....
Reminds me of the old days when I would sleep in meetings
I felt safe, at home, protected and at great peace...
Life continues to be good...
And even though I'm enjoying my home, my time and my "stuff"
There is a "missing" ... my honey...
Thank God it's temporary...

Hey idenmw!

My mother always used to tell us--even after it meant nothing to me any more--if we have trouble getting to sleep. open the bible. To the old testament. Anywhere! Later, after sobering up, I tried it...whaddaya know, it WORKS!

Glad you're posting again, thought you'd quit. I have the same thing B had/has. "B" for BAD in this case.

Peace. And see you sometime in the FUTCHAH!

I cherish my alone times too. It was not always so.

We have a fireplace, but I haven't used it in years. Now would be the time, wouldn't it?
