I’m Melting, MELTING

The Wicked Witch of the West
Who might actually be me…
The jury isn’t out on that one yet.

Ever had one of those days?

You know the kind where everything plus the kitchen sink is thrown at you?

Well… today– that’s me. I’m having one of those days.

So if you don’t mind please excuse me while I wipe the ‘me’ mess up off the floor.

Hey Honey… where’s the mop?


Several days later…

Indeed, the jury is officially out– I am not the Wicked Witch of the West. She evaporated never to be seen or heard from again.

I, on the other hand, melted like wax.
What other hand Beck? You never mentioned the first one.

And although wax is an incredibly difficult substance to clean up, it remains somewhat in tact and can be ‘fixed’. I’m happy to say that after some time and doing I was able to mold myself back up to rights.

See Mom, I told you one day that art degree would pay off!

Sometimes life get so hot you melt. When it does I hope you find a way to gently peel yourself off the floor and lovingly put yourself back to rights.

This post reminded me of the part in frozen where Olaf says that some people are worth melting for. We melt but we can get moulded back again, and that’s part of the beauty of life ☺️

    It is Olivia. Plus it’s a time when one finds out who their true friends are… the ones who love us through our melt downs no matter what. 😊

“What other hand Beck? You never mentioned the first one.” 😂😂😂

    😂 aww 🥰 thank you Wardah. It’s like I cannot make the nitpicking English teacher that lives in my head be quiet 🤐. I’ve tried to evict her several times but she will not leave! 😂
    Thank you so much for your sweet encouragement- it’s exactly what keeps me going! ❤️
