what's up, duck?

feeling a little better today.  a day with the kids at school is always nice.  i love them so very much but the quietness of the house is such a peaceful.  especially the little one.  he's a screamer.  no matter how much i threaten time-out, put him in time-out; the screaming continues.  i need some tranquility.  i can't imagine working full time and doing all that i do now.  no wonder i was such a wreck when i worked at that hell hole.  but still.  i want the hole to burrow in.  the rock to crawl under.  the cabin in a remote place.  just me, some books, some coffee, a computer (w/ wifi, of course) and a fireplace.  oh and a cozy bed.  with lots of pillows.  just a place to rest.  to recharge.  to regain something.  to come out of the cloud.
