A progressive liberal Grandma cooks and tries to find a job, after losing her job of 18 years. Can an older RN find full time work or enough part time work to satisfy her budget needs and help raise her grandkids? What can grannie cook for a family of 6 on a miserly budget? Can a knitter afford her yarn on unemployment?. This blog is morphing from its original content to reflect the realities of 2011.

We need to revamp our schools
Bill Gates has a great idea about redesigning our high schools so that everyone, no matter their zip code, has an equally good education. Today in Texas, we know the end result of the battle of the zip codes. What we do not have in Texas, and need to develop, is a state-wide feeling that all of us, ALL of us, have a stake in the education of our children. Everyone, property owners or not, should help pay for that education because if all of us were paying for it, we would more likely demand results. Texans need to wake up and revamp our funding policies and our schools in order to produce better results.
