How To Repair Umbrella Cord

Because I'm a mean momma, my girls and I brand the long march to the public library a couple of times a week even if the sun is blazing, the snow is snowing, or, gasp, the pelting is raining down.

I'm a writer, crafter, Zombie Preparedness Planner, and homeschooling momma of two kids who volition hopefully someday transition into using their genius for good, non the evil machinations and mess-making in which they currently indulge.
