The Queen Mum Lives

We live in a semi-civilized society. At least, I’d like to think that we do.  As a mom of 3 children under the age of eight, I would like to think that I have learned a few life lesssons.  Certainly a few lessons in etiquette.  You don’t change a diaper on the table at Applebee’s.  If [...]

I’ve been away from this place for so long playing nice-nice that I am sure what I am saying is nothing new to anyone.  But allow me to go on the record about what I think of McCain (v2008) and his pick of CaribouBarbie as VP candidate. It sucks  McCain Sucks Republicans Suck Palin would [...]
