Day One Hundred and Ten


The day grew quiet around the house.  My face and my arms and back began to ache.  All day I spoke only once or twice aloud, and that was to God, for no one else was near me.

I studied and cooked.  I picked wild spinach for cooking, and washed the floor in the kitchen.  I had a quiet evening.  I made bread dough into cinnamon rolls, and oiled the squeaky hinges on the oven door.
