Nice job with all the different colors. You also did a good job conveying the situation in her own words/thoughts.

Thanks, THX. I’m curious if anyone will guess the song.

don’t know song, could be many, but I hafta say ‘you go girl!’ to your protagonist, ‘persevere!’ and that she should take the phone off the hook or turn the ringer off…

Great emotional capture – the frustration, the self-loathing.

I’ve got BNL’s ‘The Flag’ going through my head now, thanks. :) I know that’s not it, though.

Really well done! Don’t know the song but it’s probably one I should have listened to back when I was in her shoes…

Yeah, it’s a song all women need when in a situation like hers. Thanks for all the comments; really enjoying this challenge and all the entries.
