Random contentment

First off, Happy First of June to you all!! Doesn't it seem that the year is flying by? Or is that just me?

You know how every once in a while you have a day where you're just quietly happy? Not because anything extraordinary is happening, but just because of a general sense of contentment and appreciation for what you have? Well, today was one of those for me. It's been a cool, grey day with intermittent showers and I spent the majority of it alone (kids don't get out of school until the 10th) and enjoying the solitude. I did some things around the house, but mostly I listened to some of my new favorite music (random selections ranging from Rufus to Radiohead with detours through Keane, Daughter Darling, Frente, and The Postal Service), read some great fic, and just *enjoyed*. You forget what a gift it is to be content until you're experiencing it again. Not to be obsessing over what has happened or what's to come, but just to be happy where you are.

How was the day for the rest of you?
