How much is peace and quiet worth to me? I mean in a true "dollars and cents" way, how much is it worth? Or, rather, how much would I be willing to pay to get it? Let's break it down: If I equate my hourly gross pay with self-worth, then the Post Office says I'm worth $25.01 per hour. Currently, peace and quiet are available to me only between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., five days a week (usually). Assuming a 7% sales tax, a quality brand of Made in the USA peace and quiet should run about $134. How should I make out my check?

You can make the check out to me! And you can come over to our empty nest any time you want quiet. Trust me, it's quiet over here at our place.

Keep blogging! It's great to hear from you....
