Susan notes: this post is as timely now as when I wrote it in early 2010. I love the logic in the post below, AND I love knowing that women don't talk any more than men at all.

Today is moving day.

My Mom Pinkie Patti leaves her home of 40 years to go into another kind of "home."

The kind you go to when you don't know where youi're going or what you're doing anymore. And she doesn't.

Tired of too much US election foufaraw? Had enough of Obama and Romney? So has Abby Evans!

The four-year-old expressed what millions feel when she burst into tears after hearing one too many reports on the upcoming voting extravaganza.

Her mother captured it on video. Of course it's gone viral:

Losing your home is like having your heart ripped out.

You feel lost, betrayed and battered.

Suddenly robbed of everything familiar, you stand alone in the wasteland of what once was your life, with no anchor, no security, no space, no place to which to retreat.

It's hard to believe that 50 years on, we are still fighting the same old battles.

The public service announcement below, a remix of a 1964 tune by Lesley Gore, creatively and clearly makes the point that women must not become complacent.
