A Goddess in a Cave in the Woods

You know when you have a project idea that you think is great, and you work really hard on it, but it doesn’t turn out exactly like you’d hoped? And maybe you spent seven or eight hours on it at your monthly crop, instead of scrapbooking? And, just perhaps, something caught on fire in the process?

And then, you know, you go home, and maybe there are giant frogs on your door, waiting to attack you? And your husband doesn’t answer your cries (and cell-phone calls and door pounds…) for help? And then you finally face your froggie fears and run inside screaming like a baby only to have one of the mutant frogs follow you inside the house and jump onto your chandelier? And then, just maybe, your husband doesn’t respond with enthusiasm when you wake him from a deep sleep with “Help! Help! There’s a giant frog in the house!”?

You know how that is, right?

Yes, I had that kind of day yesterday. Frustrating. At least I got to spend time chatting with friends, surrounded by creative energy. And, I won a zip-lock bag full of silk flowers.

Thank goodness for wonderful friends, powerful air conditioning, and the most delicious ham & swiss quiche I’ve ever tasted. Oh, and Psych. And the Tooth Fairy. And, a darling husband who apologized for mocking my fear and held me while I cried.
