One must remain sane to help others, behind the green door is a place to regain a sense of sanity.

She’s hiding her fear, her tears, her weakness, etc… She opens the door…there stands Wonder Woman! You know it!

As Milton Berle would have quipped. There's Wonder Woman. We all wonder if she's really a gal!

Hi Gershon, Mom lock the door, and then the 8, 14 year olds, all boys) get to do what they want! I was a single mom for 8 years, and all my son's friends gathered at our house, but I had a rule, breakfast with bacon, eggs, potato croquet's and grilled tomato served at 8.30a.m sharp, and opened all the bedroom doors so the aroma wafted through the house, but there were still latecomers to the table, where had they been the night I closed my door! Hugs, blessings, Jennifer.

We all need to be able to shut a door once in awhile - even mothers

I make sure to let all the flies in before I shut a door!

We all need to take a bit of time out, Moms included. Tom

'Five Minutes Peace.' Hmmm. Did Joe Biden write it?! Not to worry. Soon enough, he'll have a nice loooooooooooooooong rest. ~ Poosh Ng-Up Daysies
