And sometimes quiet doesn't even mean physically still... My teenage boys are finally helping out enthusiastically... I gave them the destruction jobs that need to be done, so I can get things fixed up. They are merrily knocking down plaster walls, ripping off wall paper, and generally making a jolly old mess. But the atmosphere is wonderfully productive and the tone as I sit here to type is peaceful... Sometimes you just need to fit the job to the personality...And perhaps insist that some folks use headphones for their choice of music...
