I know where Sarah Palin was this Weekend

While I was driving around today from event to event, I happened to catch a news reporter intoning "Sarah Palin has nothing on her schedule today," and thought to myself---she's a wife and mother of five--are they kidding ?
By all accounts Alaska's First Dude is a supportive and caring husband who can wrassle a bear and burp a baby with the best of them. I am lucky to be married to a similarly supportive and talented guy. Nevertheless, he still believes there's such a thing as the "toilet paper and toothpaste fairy," who magically replaces the empty toilet paper roll and replenishes the toothpaste whenever it runs dry.
On a weekend before Session in Harrisburg, I run around replenishing bathroom and kitchen supplies, doing the laundry and stocking up on frozen dinners, and planning at least one big "crock pot meal" so the family doesn't starve while I'm away.
I know where Sarah Palin was this weekend. She was doing the laundry.
I, on the other hand, joined the North Wales Historic Commission to mark the placing of a monument to William Trego, celebrated painter of large heroic American paintings like the "March to Valley Forge," near the spot where he lived in the Borough.
From there, it was onto my favorite place on earth, Penllyn Woods, for the Lower Gwynedd Countrie Picnic where I talked to lots of folks and got to judge the cookie contest. I know, it's a tough job but somebody's got to do it!
Meanwhile, I did two loads of laundry this morning before I left the house and I can finish up the rest tonight. Sarah, I'm with you ! Kate Harper
