Silence is Golden

A man's silence is wonderful to listen to.
- Thomas Hardy

This caught my attention on my Google Homepage. Elizabeth and the kids have gone to visit Granny for a few days and I am at home taking care of the animals and rationalising blogging as opposed to catching up with my very severe work backlog that has become even worse during my week off last week. I feel like I am ready to enjoy a week off now after last week looking after the kids and fending off irritated clients. We live our lives at such a frenetic pace these days, it is hard to really relax.

Everything (well almost everything) is quiet now. I even turned off the washing machine, but there are still birds chirping. Not too bad for an urban street.
