My dear one,
It's a gorgeous breezy Saturday (probably the last nice day until November), and I have nothing on my calendar. That doesn't mean my to-do list isn't a mile long though! I slept in till a leisurely 9:00. I finally did my taxes (hip-hip-hooray for a refund!). I have a load of laundry in the washer right now. Then I should practice the music for next week's symphony gig, stop at the produce market, and take my car in for an oil change.
O how I wish I lived on a nice little piece of land with room for a
clothesline in the backyard. Today would be a perfect day to hang out
the clothes to dry! You and I could sit on the porch drinking iced tea (err, excuse me, down here it's "sweet tea," I'm told), enjoying the breeze, while our little ones romp around the grassy yard. Maybe the yard needs to be mowed. I wouldn't mind helping you with this if you are tired from your grueling work-week!
I want a quiet simple life, my dear one. I want to know peace and contentment in the small routines of keeping a home for my family. I don't want to run around to gigs in the next state, scare off friends with my "accomplishments," and hear people calling me "Dr." I want to be a nobody! I want to be yours...
Waiting,
Me
