Loud outside, Quiet inside

Posted at 13:42 in .

I fell asleep last night on the couch in my living room. The couch is surrounded on three sides by walls with HUGE banks of screened off windows that allowed the wind from the latest tropical storm to blow through my home. The rain poured down outside, the wind blew hard, lightning lit up the sky brilliantly, thunder rattled the floors of my little house on stilts and I drifted peacefully in and out of sleep. It is kind of wacky to be right in the middle of a wild storm and to feel perfectly safe, warm and peaceful.
