30 Oct Wonder Woman, Amish Bread & A Global Melt Down
While this More Than Full-Time Working Wonder Woman was out saving the world my boys made friends with some kids down the street – and that is totally awesome! It’s one of the reasons we moved… so the kids could ride their bikes down the sidewalk, knock on the door and ask the age old question, ” Can So&So come out to play.”
The new friend’s sweet mom gave us an Amish Friendship Bread starter to seal the deal – and at the time I thought how cute is that… get it… new friends… Amish Friendship Bread… I am gonna have to add that to my Wonder Woman Repertoire.
And then life happened. While I was out doing good, saving Mr. Wonder Woman, selling popcorn, and getting ready for a little thing called Halloween… I forgot about the bread.
On this Friday morning at the end of a string of really full and somewhat stressful weeks – when I just didn’t have the time or the gumption left to come up with a separate “book character parade” “Click-Clack-Moo” Cow costume and had to softly and gently let AK know it just wasn’t gonna happen – this Friday morning when I saw the deflated bag and imagined the cries of a million little yeast cell’s crying out from starvation… I lost it. Yep, total crying melt down… at 6:45AM.
I was ready to hang it up – turn in my Wonder Woman Underoos – change my label to Fail Whale Mom.
Mr. Wonder Woman gave me a big hug and affirmed that I am still a WONDER WOMAN… I am just not a perfect woman.
Ahhh… right! Not perfect. Big Sigh. Relief.
S0, I jumped in the shower, slapped on some makeup, threw on my Wonder Woman socks for just a little extra reminder today… and headed out to once again save the world one web site at a time.
I am writing this post out of gratitude…
in case I havn’t blogged it lately…
I want ya’ll to know…
I fucking love my husband.
