It is Friday the Thirteenth. Do you have a fear of Friday the Thirteenth? Then, the title of this post is the name of your phobia. Today was just another Friday around here. We did sign our names a gazillion times as we refinanced at a nice low interest rate. However, our payments won’t go down because our homeowners insurance is costing us a lot and we can only get $5000 deductible. I could use some pretty foul language here, but I will resist. The fact that we were loyal customers of Allstate for many years for our home and car insurance with hardly ever a claim — nothing on the house— until the two burglaries. The fact that we spent a bundle on making our home secure from any future intruders meant nothing. We are trying to let go of our anger an move on.

Today’s 3 X 3 is red linen with a linen indigo moon. Since we have a nice full moon this week, it seemed appropriate.

I have received some nice gifts over the past couple of months. Time to share them. This is a gorgeous ceramic plate from Steve’s brother, Mike, and his wife, Ann. I love the wonky shape and the colors that the artist used.

Ann told me this about the artist:

She’s a lively eccentric, who lives on a homestead far from the rest of civilization, and who delights in finding unusual clays and minerals for glazes along roadsides in her travels, and waxes euphoric about the results of her experimental firings.

I hope you are having a wonderful week-end. We might get some snow!
