Spirit Cloth

the Almost February mood swing...

The confinement of February brings out anxiety in me.

I'm a bit frazzled today, boiler broke down and repair guys are on the way. There was a huge rain and wind storm yesterday, much worse than the predicted storm that did not really arrive here. There was a bit of flooding. In any case, I've no time for talking right now. As you an see, Soul-o is not worried.

I look to the wall. And putting things in perspective, I see all of these related in some way, I see the old ugly light switch is just as much a part of my considerings as the cloth. At least today.  I pulled out the old drawing.  The box. The one I tend to put myself in. The small house with the roof wings made me remember it. The dyed cloth just came out of the copper pot on the wood stove in the studio which is cold right now.

I'll try to get to some audio later.

Cloth and Cold

Cloth is useful. Again.

This is the studio table now, not in the studio, but useful for spreading out, etc., as the temperatures remain below freezing for the 3rd day in a row. The table top was rocking a bit. A scrap of silk was just enough to change that.

All the cloth around here is used. As I age I relate more and more.

I'm not feeling right today. The chill is in me. I think I'll take it easy and do some extra napping.

The cold has also become useful. Helping us begin considering moving to someplace warmer than previously considered.

Looking back we see everything has been, is, will be...useful.

Away

 

 I'm taking a break.

There are leaves to rake.

And soup to make.
