Gratitude day 13; a quiet evening at home

Getting home after a long week of work and trapeze training.  A simple dinner.  Both of us reading. The cat complaining we're not ... whatever is it we're not doing to his satisfaction.  A little down time ... not for conversation or communication, or doing all the things we need to do (holiday presents? what? It can't possibly be 11 days until Christmas.).  but just being. together. lazy (although El Bandito has done quite a bit of house-cleaning earlier in the evening).  down time. (in which I might possibly have been researching more crazy adventures. maybe. just maybe.)
