I’ve been a good girl lately. I’ve been non-controversial, and for the most part I’ve avoided topics like politics and religion here on this blog. Back on my Blogspot blog, I tended more toward the political, but I’ve kind of stayed away from it here on Just Margaret. Well, except back in January, but still, that was a while ago!
Part of that is a product of living in dark red, right-leaning Podunk. My kids are older now, and I don’t want them to have to defend my positions. It was awkward four years ago trying to equip my first grade daughter to handle the kid on the bus who told her that Barack Obama was a baby-killer. Now that she’s going into middle school, she wants a low profile. I don’t blame her. Regardless of the media available to all of us today, middleschoolers still want a low profile.
With that in mind, I did wax on a bit about Pussy Riot. But not here–over on Prime Parents Club, so you should go check that out if you’re up for some politics and religion in one juicy package. And there was this time earlier this summer where we got on the “Blog” Of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks so you should go check that out too…
And I did another piece on PPC as well about my vision. Yup…Maggie’s gettin’ old.
We’re rolling into the home stretch of summer–the kids have gotten their back to school haircuts…clothes shopping is next (my how they’ve grown)…and don’t forget the shoes! Only ten more days…
