It's a funny business, a woman's career. The things you drop on your way up the ladder, so you can move faster. You forget you'll need them again when you go back to being a woman. That's one career all females have in common~ whether we like it or not~ being a woman.
Sooner or later we've all got to work at it, no matter what other careers we've had or wanted.... and, in the last analysis, nothing is any good unless you can look up just before dinner or turn around in bed~ and there he is. Without that, you're not a woman. You're something with a French Provincial office or a book of clippings~ but you're not a woman.
I got those great words from my favorite book. ~ Bette Davis, in the classic film All About Eve.....Love who you are before you can love others.
I love my family. I love to cook. I love my house. I love to camp. I love to fly fish. I love to water paint. I love to quilt. I love to read. I love to write. I love to travel. I love to shop ( shshsh don't tell my husband ) and I love Ginger my lab.
And I refuse to give up my $4.00 coffee in the morning.
