Yes. 'Friday night' as a big night out loses its neon luster, to be replaced by a softer, gentler light... Nicely done, Line! :) gw

Quietude - nothing like it; it is where the great ideas flow. Love this word and the poem. I have not seen my grandchildren since late February and I truly do miss that though.

i can relate to this, line, but at least before this crisis, i knew that friday was my babysitting day. i haven't seen my grandkids since mid-march so now all the days are interchangeable and i don't like it one bit!

so true ~ other than appointments, the only other question might be 'is there mail today?'
