“I’m just going to the hardware store to get something. I’ll only be an hour.”
Only an hour! It’s not 'only' an hour, it’s one hour of blessed peace, one hour to do something for me.
I could read some of my library book, write more of my novel, pen a poem, draw a picture, take a bubble bath, go for a walk, play Mahjong, dream a while…
Is that his car in the driveway? How could an hour go so quickly?
Oh well, at least I had time to write a list, all ready for next time.
