There quite a few things that bring me comfort. Like the steady breathing coming from the sleeping little girl next to me. She passed out tonight, she was that tired. We're at my family's house since we'll be leaving early tomorrow for the beach. But I'll be blogging from there. No break this time.

Something else that brings me comfort - a hot cup of tea or coffee in the morning and afternoon.


What brings you comfort?

    Being quiet in my house, alone with my cat, after a day of teaching, and not having to talk to anybody brings me comfort.

    AND a glass of wine, OBVIOUSLY. ;)
