It wasn’t that long ago. I now see why my mom made the “choices” she did.

I keep telling my daughters that women have come a long way in my lifetime. I'm pushing 70, so I've seen so many changes.

My Mom got divorced in the mid 70s and took me with her to the bank to get her first credit card in her name. I couldn't understand how that little plastic thing was the same as money.
