A Moment's Peace, a 100 word story

Augustine sighed happily. A fire was burning nicely on the hearth that both warmed and lit the living room. She smiled as the flames shadows danced with light cast from the fire. The light and shadows danced merrily along the walls and across the floor. Her large, loving, gentle dog who had busied herself with a chewy stick now lay quietly on the floor.

Lately everything was crazy and hectic, but right now it was fuzzy warm slippers, comfy sweats, a hot tea, and no noise. Just the natural breathing of her dog, herself, and the crackling of the fire.
