Ut there: Being a wtfe, mother, businesswoman, and part- time writer, sometimes ail at the same time, can have its ups and downs. Sometimes the downs out- weigh the upe.

"This je because you work 80 bard and no one ap- preciates you," she stated. Feeling quite guilty, I commented, "lYour daddy works very hard too you know." Her reply was too prompt. "Yes I know, but he doesn't complain about it." >I have once again vowed to keep my mouth shut.. how long it wii last le another thing.
