Here is what I love about the brain:
How it remembers.
How it sews what soft it can
into a blanket for the nights
when I am cold with trouble.

I’ll tell you what I love about the brain David…
How it forgets. Blank.
So I can sleep.
Yes, it has been a day and a half.
Truth!
I had to read this about 6 times.
And….you’ve left us hangin’
😎 yes….. it’s soothing to me. I also like what Sawsan has said.
OK, we’re aligned. 👍
I love this
So glad!
yes, and it lets the harsh scratchy bits go
Exactly
Love this one David, and all of the comments. The only thing left for me to say in my comment is, sweet dreams y’all. :o)
Thanks Patricia. Sweet dreams fits beautifully. 😀
“…it sews what soft it can…” Ahhhh…yes it does. And then other times, it makes ya don the hair shirt. Sigh….
WLS – especially when it’s been a long day
Sigh, that’s it…
I had a long time learning to sew.
