Mother’s Day
On May 10, what do mothers really want? We offer
this epitaph from a Penobscot, Maine, gravestone to
give you a hint: “Here lies a poor woman. Who
always was tired; She lived in a house, Where help was
not hired; Her last words on earth were, ‘Dear friends, I
am going; Where washing ain’t dr
Nor sweeping or sewing; But every
thing there is exact to my wishes,
For where they don’t eat. There’s nr
washing dishes; I’ll be where loui
anthems will always be singing, Bi
having no voice, I’ll be clear of
singing; Don’t mourn for me now, _
mourn for me never. I’m going to do nothing forever
and ever.’ ”
My idea of superwoman is someone who
scrubs her own floors
cr For a quick (temporary) fix, mend holes in screens with
a bit of melted candle wax.
