Don't let the Wicked Witch in - There was a game I played as a child called "Don't let the Wicked Witch in." One of us pretended to be the mother going to town and leaving her children at home. As she is leaving, she would say to her children, "I'm going to town to smoke my pipe; I won't be back 'til Saturday night. If the pot boils over, turn off the stove, but don't let the Wicked Witch in."
The reason this game came to memory was because one of my sisters was saying how occasionally she lets the "Wicked Witch" into her home. I also recall telling my children when they were quite young, that at 8:00pm if they weren't in bed, the Wicked Witch would be visiting. As I was thinking about the mother in our game, it made me laugh. Although I did grow up in the '60s and '70s, I don't ever recall my mother going to town to smoke a pipe and what day of the week did the mother in the game leave? Was it Monday, Friday, or somewhere in between? Did she realize that without this much needed break, she actually might have turned into the Wicked Witch? My sister came across this great quote:Women are angels. When someone breaks our wings . . . we just keep flying . . . on a broomstick . . . we're flexible.
