if you’re thinking it’s blogging, she doesn’t have time for blogging. you’re right - but that’s not what i’m talking about. what i’m talking about when i say i don’t have time for this is found in the following tale. we have nothing in the house for the kids to take for lunch - at least nothing proper. we could send pudding, lots of pudding, and a frozen pork loin, but as other moms know, sometimes it’s all about appearances. so, i have to go to the grocery store. now, i’ll admit, i’m a bit o

Recent reports have noted a booming business in India for women who are paid to act as gestational surrogates, who receive compensation many times a normal salary in the region to carry out a pregnancy for women in other countries (including the United States).

I discovered this book challenge on Cafemom.com. The challenge is to read a book that begins with the letter of each alphabet. This is a new and exciting challenge for me. I love reading but I often find that I don’t have the time to sit down and complete a book before something else comes along to snatch my attention away. Now that I’m part of a public challenge, I’m hoping that I may actually be able to follow through. I will post my results in this blog. A B C D E F - First to Die by James

Here, then, is the real problem of our negligence.

I lose count.) to determine but I suspect the equator does actually begin somewhere or more likely everywhere. Each point on the line is a start or end, depending upon how you look at it. And if you think I’m talking like TS Eliot right
