I will take a funicular ride to these trails and take a run - hopefully twice! There will be wine with lunch...followed by late afternoon naps. I will spend hours outdoors walking around to see as many of Gaudi's buildings as possible. Should there be rain, I will check out the Picasso museum. I will … Continue reading Next week when I’m in Barcelona…

Inspiring vs. Inciting – Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump
Yesterday was a huge day for politics in Albany, our Capital City on the Hudson. My schedule only allowed for me to attend one of the three pre-primary political rallies, but I am ever so proud to say that my older sons represented at the two events held during the early afternoon. How cool is … Continue reading Inspiring vs. Inciting – Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump

Celebrating snake eyes and an unexpected trip from Korea to China
Yesterday my youngest son turned 11. I wish I could remember exactly what time of day he was born, but it’s honestly kind of a blur. I think that happens once you have more than two children, some of the specific details no longer stick. In complete honesty, I sometimes have to pause to recall … Continue reading Celebrating snake eyes and an unexpected trip from Korea to China
What parents think when their kid doesn’t make it home by curfew
I can't believe (s)he's late! Midnight is more than reasonable a curfew! I'm so annoyed. Give an inch, they take a mile. I hope there wasn't an accident. Were there drugs at that party?!? You can't even text? Why can't you text? Are you injured? Did you forget your keys? Are you outside too hesitant … Continue reading What parents think when their kid doesn’t make it home by curfew
