American Gothic/Pretty Pink House

I read the news today, Oh boy..

I usually like to make pretty pictures...but today I just felt heartsick at what is going on in the world and felt moved to journal about it.  We all know that women and children will suffer most by the current situation.  Our children will be the first generation not able to "do better" than their parents.  The riots in England....I so get it. I saw a news report where the reporter asked "Where are the parents?"  I'll tell you where they are....at work. It takes two incomes for a middle class family to survive...a working class family has to have both parents working two jobs each just to keep a roof over their head and food on the table.

Not to mention all the single mothers out there.

End of rant...I will now return to making pretty.
