No phone, no one standing in from of my desk asking for something, no one calling my name as I walk through an office...nope, at home, just the sound of the refrigerator running and the ice maker dropping a tray of ice into the bucket every now and then.

I will usually say that I am thinking about a recipe. Then I ask him what he is thinking about. He likes to say that he is wondering about what I will make for dinner. Then we laugh and return to silence.Kameshwarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13628340042372298136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3202465070162331558.post-7054035770989343402011-09-24T06:02:30.774-07:002011-09-24T06:02:30.774-07:00An Australian friend here who moved back to Austra...An Australian friend here who moved back to Australia this summer was one of those types and her stories got bigger and grander the more she talked.<br /><br />When I go to school in the morning, I head straight to my office where I check my school emails, then personal ones, and then get to work while there are a few others who sit and chat for 30-45 minutes -- I can't do that.<br /><br />The older I get, the more I crave silence. Peace and quiet. When hubby and I are together, we don't always talk, especially in the car, or when we go out to eat. I see everyone else talking and talking and talking, and I wonder, is there something wrong with us? Sometimes it is nice to just BE! <br /><br />Have a beautiful day.

As for Chatty Cathy -- I had that doll when I was a little girl and she drove my parents crazy (read, I drove them crazy by pulling that chain...) until the day my dog got hold of the chain and it broke.
