hunger, warmth and listeners

1 When hunger hits sometimes it gnaws in the pit of my stomach. Tonight a strange concoction of ground meat, mushrooms, veggies and cheese soothed my belly.
2 The house has the feeling of bone chilling cold when I get home from work. I cuddle into the big rocking chair and turn on the electric blanket the kids gave me for Christmas. My toes are warm, finally!
3 I have people in my life who listen. I mean the kind of people who care enough to listen to my whining and drivel and still say, 'I love you or it's okay" Sometimes they ask questions, sometimes they nod or say uh huh, but they are really hearing me. I have listeners in my life.
