quiet

Is it wrong to enjoy quiet as much as I am enjoying it lately? I delight in complete and total quiet. (wind chimes or rain excluded) I've not always been one that wanted or needed peace and quiet. Raising 4 kids tends to ramp up your tolerance for noise and confusion. But lately....and especially at work....I WANT QUIET. As students or faculty members come traipsing by my desk to invade my solitude I just want to push a secret button under my desk that throws up a wall to keep them out. Insta-wall. (Note to self...call Staples.)

  1. It's totally not wrong to want quiet - but I would caution - be careful what you wish for...I have quiet at home, and frankly, I miss my kids, the chaos, the joy...

    Glad you blogged Barb - sorry I'm so late reading!
