© 2006 Rusty Chicks  


RustyChicks are everyday women facing everyday issues.  We're wives, mothers and working women who've been busy with husbands, raising children and tending to homes so we're a bit rusty when it comes to doing something for ourselves. Remember when 'time out' used to mean punishment?  For us it means survival!  Now we are ready to spend time doing something inspirational and positive for ourselves and those who relate to us.
