If you have ever watched the Price is Right...

before Covid, it is the face of America. Come on down: people of color, women in Burkas, Caucasians, Latinos, gays, etc.
When we first retired...I was a high school librarian and my husband a Superintendent of schools we would occasionally watch the Price is Right.
I would say to my husband...that is America...not the white America that people want to cling to.
We now have a Price is Right Cabinet as it should be...I have hope.🤗

Years ago..
Had a preschool for 10 years until both boys went to public school.. 25 years does not give you much of a retirement in PA but I do not regret one minute that I had with my boys.

I cried every day for a year dropping my son off at his amazing sitter but I knew I had to be there. Not everyone's choice and I respect that but it was mine.

clever those people were to just bid one dollar when they thought everyone else was high. So her turn came to bid on the package and she did, one dollar! Then the last bidder went two dollars! The look on her face was priceless! She thought that had to be the dirtiest trick ever! Somehow she never realized that only worked for the contestant bidding last.
