"As the husband of a wife who is strong and self-made, I can say this: Govornor, you are a disgrace to every strong American woman who has worked hard, raised a family and plants their feet firmly and makes decisions daily on the management of their family. Get lost."

You and ME BOTH!

I will follow a good leader no matter if they are Female or Male...and if there is NO GREAT leader to follow...then get out of the way..I will make my OWN decisions, thank you. And they will NOT BE ONES where I am CRYIN' on the TV about how no one is HELPING ME!
And in our house...we live paycheck to paycheck too..
But, there is enough food and supplies (gotta get more water) to survive the "Seattle Earthquake" that is always predicted...when that big one comes..there WILL NOT be 3+ days of warning!
I understand that there is a BIG difference with all of the flooding...the main one being that I WOULD HAVE SOME WARNING!
If we had too, we would have loaded up the stroller, loaded up the rolling suitcases and the backpacks and gotten the "HECK" out of here~
Diapers are a problem though..the are so big and bulky...hard to choose between diapers and food!
But we would have made it out~ no doubt in my mine...
Of course, it doesn't hurt that my husband is in the military! :-)

Thanks for your post!
I have been thinking the same thing as I have been reading about how the "women" and "girly men" need a "Strong man" to follow...maybe the "girly women" do...but WE are not those "Girly women" now, are we????

"Proud wife" I salute you and trust that the MSgt is fully aware of the gem he has.

You are so right. My little family lost everything in the big S.F. Fire some years ago, which started at 8 am on a Sunday morning and by 11 am everything we owned was gone - not much 'warning' since we were, unfortunately, out of town. BTW, be sure to either put your photo negatives/CD in your safe deposit box or set aside some favorite photos to take along in your escape - we'd give anything to have even a couple of photos of the kids when they were little. God bless.
