My quiet time fix

I’m running late.  I dropped squirrel girl at driving school for her over the road time this morning.  She isn’t happy it is 7 am but she is happy she gets a leg up on her classmates.
I stopped at Exxon tiger market for mountain Berry coffee.
And now I’m making myself deliberately later by hiding out in the meditation garden.  I suppose I should feel guilty.  I don’t.  Ths helps so much to step out of the rat race even if the other rats are just a few feet away.  The water and the wind chimes and even the trumpet vines and traffic sounds.  I treasure this place and the time I can steal away to hide here all alone with myself.
