Let us observe a moment of silence

Despite the paradox of my current position as homemaker while knowing full-well that I would have scoffed at any aspiration of being a homemaker in my younger years,

[heigh-ho, because I knew so much, you know]

I felt a strange sadness when I drove into our small town today and saw that the sign declaring FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA WELCOMES YOU had been ripped out. It had a lovely wooded lake in the background, probably painted on.

I think I'm really going to miss it.
