I loved the Monkees as a girl, teenager, woman, wife, mother, grandmother. They make me happy and give me a chance to relive the more simpler times of life

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!!!!!

What kills me is that a feminist told me I could be anything I wanted to be and when I replied that I wanted to be a stay home mommy, she scorned me. Oh well!

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.
