busy hands still mind

 iron glides across the board

pressing out my thoughts

My wonderful,loving,teddy bear of a brother

is recovering just fine

Doctor says it's all in his attitude

My sister-in-law said he sang into the nebulizer this morning

ha!....he's an old rocker from the 60's....heavy metal kind

and he's still at it....living his dream..singing and writing songs

I just know that his presence will touch someone there in the hospital that needs it

he's just that kind of a wonderful human being....

Thank you for your warm kind words and prayers for my brother and me

I needed them

Today I am going to iron

let my thoughts wander

where they will....

and where they want

if I just let go

Holding an iron is much like holding a pen

things happen

things get released

things are unearthed

but in the end, in a quiet room

filled with luxurious steam

smelling oh so clean

fabrics get the wrinkles out

whether it's my good tablecloth

or the heart aching fabrics of my life

..joy...
