Going on a get-away

I’ll be gone, with my family, for the long weekend to celebrate a family occasion.  My husband’s sister is getting old (which of course says nothing about us) and she’ll need our help to blow out all the candles! 

So I doubt I’ll post here for a few days… but I wanted to leave you with a link that is memorable, and along the lines of my last post – a source of inspiration.

Judith Warner’s column this morning for the NY Times brought tears to my eyes.

If for some reason the hyper link doesn’t take you there (I have a subscription, so it might not be fully available through the link) my guess is that if you search for Judith Warner, Domestic Disturbances, Tears to Remember you can find the text somewhere out there.  It is worth a read.

Have a great weekend. 

I’m committing to coming back to blog with something a little lighter and less political.  Maybe a weekend with three families in one house will provide that inspiration.  I’ll just have to recover enough sleep to write it.  :)

  1. That’s such an insightful column. I too have been a little thrown by how many times I cried during this election, starting a couple of weeks before it began and still no end in sight to the sudden occasional crying jag. And friends I would have never described as patriotic are now throwing that word around. Amazing…

  2. Hi there Space Nakji,

    I’m so glad that you read the column. I think she’s a great writer (probably why she’s at the NY Times) and I identify with a lot of what she says. But then, so are you! I’ve read and enjoyed your blog too. Hopefully you’ll keep it up. I’m adding it to my blogroll.
