Silence and home

I'm sitting in my living room, in silence, listening to the rain on the roof. I love moments like these. I'm coming up on the one month mark of owning my house. I always wondered what house living would be like vs. apartment living. What I imagined is true. The TV is on a lot less, I'm reading more books, I'm enjoying the sound of the rain, watching Daisy chase birds, and just staring out my window. House life is great!

Even now, I need to finish cleaning to get ready for my house blessing tomorrow, but I am enjoying the silence a little too much. I am so relaxed, and enjoying the life I dreamed of living. Who can believe it?

Yes, home ownership has its downfalls (like having to get rid of your own mice....or really, just having mice for that matter) but it is a great thing.

Today, I sit, read, and enjoy the silence. Pure Bliss.
