I am the only one in the house at the moment.
The pellet stove just stopped rumbling, and the dishwasher finished its cycle.
The house is utterly silent.
For once the neighbor's beagle isn't barking and nobody is running equipment anywhere within earshot.
I should vacuum and do a load of laundry, but instead I am going to revel in this moment.
Glorious, peaceful, stillness.
