'Til Death Do Us Part
Friendship, like marriage, is a funny thing. You never know what might happen. My friendship with Charlotte was strong, as friendships formed through the rigors of caring for infants are. Our sons were the same age, give or take a few weeks, and Charlotte and I came to know just about everything there was to know about each other as at first we sat nursing our babies, then while sitting in a pile of toys designed to stimulate and educate, then while running after toddlers who seemed hell-bent on doing themselves, or each other, in. And now, with the boys aged three, at last we could sit, have a coffee and chat at the kitchen table while the boys played and fought and played again in the basement.

Sacrificial Lamb
SACRIFICIAL LAMB The late afternoon sun worked its way through the filthy attic window and drifted lazily down onto the stack of boxes that loomed in front of me, silently challenging me to get to work. One more chore to check off on the never-ending list. The funeral arrangements, check, flowers, check, notified family, friends...I didn't know my mother's friends and hadn't been about to search her cluttered desk for an address book. That would be too organized for my mother. She likely kept phone numbers on bits of paper, scattered amongst other bits of paper. My sister, Carole, wasn't inclined to search either, so we'd put a notice in the paper, check. Met with the lawyer about her will, check, canceled credit cards, check, and bank accounts, check. Every one item spawned two more, it seemed. And now we were faced with her house; a lifetime of stuff we'd have to pick through and decide what was garbage and what not, check.

Why are women valued first for their looks and second for their abilities?
In a world where women have made significant strides towards gender equality, it is disheartening to acknowledge that they are still often valued first for their looks and second for their abilities. It raises the critical question: why does society continue to prioritize physical appearance over the talents, skills, and achievements that women bring to the table? This societal bias not only perpetuates harmful stereotypes but also undermines the progress towards true gender equality. By examining the underlying factors that contribute to this phenomenon, we can shed light on the complex dynamics at play and work towards dismantling the notion that a woman's worth is solely determined by her appearance. Join us as we explore the multifaceted reasons behind this issue and strive for a future where women are valued and celebrated for their abilities above all else.
