"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."
~The Buddha
 
This seemed appropriate for Grace in Small Things.
 
-breaks in the humidity
-having a cool, dark room to sleep in
-the smell of the salty ocean air
-fudge
-hearing "hello beautiful" from Pk as I get into the car after a long day
 
 
This moment I am enjoying a peaceful moment before I pick up the phone and check for messages.  That's when the workday will really start.  But, for this moment, I'll enjoy a little bit of quiet and ease my way into the day with some coffee.
 
Happy (peaceful) Monday!

PK is a gem! He should give classes to lesser husbands.

Hope your Monday goes well.
