A Rare Moment in Time

Well, well, well...the kids are in bed and my hubby is out of town. What will I do? A hot, yet decaffeinated latte and a good book sounds divine. Actually, sleeping is really what I should be doing, but moments like these are too precious to waste unconscious. Don't get me wrong, I miss my sweetie dearly and in fact, his absence is one reason I am putting off going to bed. I just cannot fall into slumber very easily without my head on his shoulder. However, since my daughter decided to "sleep" in my bed last night, I technically haven't been alone for about 36 hours, unless you count the shower and I really don't since my two year old was less than 25 feet away. I finished "Angry Housewives Eating BonBons" today and no untouched books exist in the house at this moment. I think a trip to B&N is in store for tomorrow. So, here's to some solitude and a reread of "To Kill a Mockingbird", the best book ever written!
