Quiet day




It's been a peaceful day for a holiday weekend.  Maybe because it's not REALLY a holiday weekend yet.  It's strange having Christmas on a Friday.  Our church doesn't have a Christmas Eve service which means that this morning was the Christmas service.  Somehow it really didn't feel right, it was just too early, Christmas is days away.

Both kids had their own things going on so Greg and I went out for lunch after the service.  It occurred to me that this might be a foreshadowing of our Sundays in the future.  After lunch we went home, picked up the dogs and headed over to Red Rocks.  It's a real challenge to walk the steps at Red Rocks with the dogs.  They just don't understand going back and forth over and over.  If we separate them it's really hard because they pull to be together.  So today we walked and ran side by side on the steps.  It took a few rows but they finally got the hang of it and we had a good workout.

The rest of the afternoon was quiet.  Caleb came home and watched some TV.  We have a whole new selection of shows playing now that Caleb is home.  I don't know where he got his weird sense of humor!  When Lydia got home the three of them, Greg, Caleb and Lydia all headed out together to see a movie.  I passed.  Sometimes I just like to be alone for awhile... make the introvert in me happy.

So nothing big happening today, which is pretty nice for a Sunday.

I love a few quiet hours alone. Crave them, actually.
