As I iron so
Posted on Sun, 05 Jul 2020
As I iron so rarely it is very stressful and concentrated so not sure if your poem is an accurate reflection on normal ironing. However it is BRILLIANT description of washing machine noise, I love how it goes round and round like my thoughts...
I like this exchange very much! Abigail is getting much more self confident, too. Cleaning wounds and cooking supper. That she is worried about Buck because he is old reinforces that she is little, just having to grow up very fast. "All quick" I...

Posted on Sat, 04 Jul 2020
I like having moth in mothers, so the tree is part moth, that's clever

Uncomfortaby is my typo!!!!! Couldn't get the cut and paste bit to work. So sorry to send you looking.
