Governor Palin and I are multi-tasking

Imagine. A woman who can be a mom, wife, elected official, friend, and candidate . . . all at the same time. The tsking from pundits with very little to do except carp has tickled me no end. "How will she take care of her family if she's off running a campaign?" Excuse me? Is this the 1950's? 

Because any woman - every woman - gets it.

At the moment, I'm

• Laminating the covers to the Preschool Phonics workbooks that will be printed and bound next week for this year's classes.
• Browning eight pounds of turkey to make chili for the Youth Group supper Sunday night.
• Grilling streak strips for Philly Cheesesteaks for supper.
• Sipping a glass of wine and blogging.
• Running a load of dishes in the dishwasher.
• Running a load of laundry through the washing machine.
• Getting ready to help son A understand an AP World History assignment so he can chart it this weekend.
• Organizing a freelance assignment I'm working on all weekend.
• Letting the dog out for the umpteenth time because he's convinced there's a squirrel out there he hasn't yet terrorized.

Yep. Multi-tasking. Governor Palin will do just fine.
