A Close Call...

I wrote the blog but I touched the download picture icon and a pop-up window said it was an error so the blog vanished.  Just like that.  Poof.  Unsaved.  Deleted.  My feelings are expressed by a tightening in my stomach, a welling froth of anger coming up my throat, a frowning brow and turned down lips.  Just like that.  One second I'm happy, finished my blog...next minute....grrrrrr.  Then Sho walked into the room.  Inside me, I felt an impulse to blame him, lash out at him, tell him it was all his fault because I'm in a hurry to do my blog before taking him to drop him off at Tio Fred's this morning. Grrr...  Then he asks, "Are you all right?"  I want to let him have it.

But I don't.

Gently I tell him, "No.  I just lost my blog that I worked so hard to finish early this morning."

"Oh.", he says then he goes to finish whatever he was doing.

Whew...the program kicks in just in the nick of time...we cease fighting everything and everybody...love and tolerance is our code...a day at a time.
