Even In The Silence

We'd be on the phone for hours, many times quietly not saying anything. 

Sounds like an oxymoron...a phone is for talking!  But we did it anyway and still do. I've only ever done this with my husband...but there is something comforting about knowing that someone is just right there, even in the silence.

Recently it looks like I went 'missing in action' with how still it's been on my blog. Writing takes a lot of time for me and every moment I've had to spare I've been pouring into several other projects I recently started. People have told me (on more than one occasion) that I can be quite compulsive. I tend to loose myself in whatever it is I'm doing at the time...until I reach a place with it that I feel is acceptable.

It's true I can get swept away, but in my defense...I've learned to play two new instruments, put together a functioning band and learned to paint in a new medium (Chinese Ink).

Even though there hasn't been much noise on my computer keyboard,
I'm still here.

Note to self...in the future, only take on one new project at a time!
