Music Therapy
Today my head was full of politics and religion and finances and repairs and the unsanitary state of my house. That last item was contributed to by all the other stuff because housework tends to be hands-busy-brain-free-to-think. I was so sick of listening to my own thoughts, particularly since they’d begun to go in circles. This was when I remembered that I own an ipod. It is an aging beast of an ipod, but as long as I keep it plugged in to the power supply it works fine. I turned on some music and set to work on the house. The music did a marvelous job of drowning out all the other thoughts. Within an hour the kitchen was clean(er) and I was feeling much happier about everything. Hurray for music.
