martha's poncho

ok, so much has been written online about martha's get-out-of-jail poncho........and i wan to be on the record as being happy for martha that somebody thought enough of her to want her to leave prison warm and cozy......i have painful regrets of having turned up my nose at a pair of crocheted slippers that my maternal grandmother made for me......and all these 40 years later i am ashamed to think that i put fashion before family connections......so what that my grandmother's crocheted slippers were incredibly ugly....she loved me enough to make them....and that should have been good enough for the likes of me.....
