It is a good thing to spend time with other women. There is a lot of creativity involved, and it*s not just cooking and quilting. Driving home from Indiana last weekend we talked about careers which involved catching things in mid-air and learning how to say Why not? I have been catching things for a long time. Jeff says it*s like being put at third base. You never know when the ball will come flying into your mitt.
We talked about never knowing
What we would do next.
She said men generally
Have it all planned out.
They follow the path they have figured
From the beginning.
Women have things thrown at them.
They have to figure out
How to catch;
Learn what to do
With the stray pieces.
Women learn to say
Why not?
And
How does this fit in?
And
Perhaps I will find a home
Here.
Women are adept
At quilting things
Together.
