Dolce far niente/SWF

 We all sorely complain of the shortness of time, and yet have much more than we know what to do with.  Our lives are either spent in doing nothing at all, or in doing nothing to the purpose, or in doing nothing that we ought to do.  We are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there would be no end of them. ~ Seneca

    What a peaceful and serene picture...just the place I would love to be right now. My holiday from the naughty children begins at 3:15 this afternoon and I cannot wait. A whole week to play at home and just enjoy life at a SLOW pace for a change. Here’s wishing you a happy Easter. Take care. genie
