She thought, marrage would be spent between Las Vegas. Paris, and the Hawaiian Islznds, dancing at Inaugural Balls and fighting off lewd advances from movie stars. Little did she know her glamorous moments would be centered arouod planning Cub ScoutB anquets with no lewd glances from anyone except the Cubmaster--and he's her husband.
She has seven kids and craves complete isolation from detergent boxes, Tinker Toys, and pairs of raveled underwerar. Before going to sleep at night she asks Whoever Is Up There to forgive her for geing such a cross, lousey mother so often during the day and promises she will do better... Then she wakes up in the morning to find that somone has dumped all the expensive choclates in the dog's dish and it starts all over again.
Shirley Lueth didn't plan to be a witch - it just turned oit that way.
