Gosh - true confessions. Mine came from an era where I was being pressured to go and get a job while my kids were young. I rebelled against all those who thought I wasted my education and called myself Homemother. (Not sayin' you all have to be one, but I wanted to be one and BE proud of it!!!)
I now have one son who was graduated from college this year, two sons still in college, and a daughter looking at schools for next year. Time wasted??? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!

Several years ago a friend told me about a web site that takes your name and gave you a fake peerage title. Mine was "Lady Madame Kelly of Puddleston St. Droop". I have been 'madamekelly' online ever since. The site no longer exists as far as I know.
