Time Goes By

Egads! Has it really been almost three months since I visited my own blog? Time to get back to it and learn how to type my stream of consciousness.

My incredible son, Jason, is embarking for Washington D.C. in March to take a grant-funded job with the National Association for Independent Living. He's a social worker for people with disabilities and now has a chance to affect change through writing policy and lobbying. He's a bit of a political nut like the rest of the family so he should be in his element. What a stupendous time to be in D.C. The only down-side is that he will be away from his family for a year. The other potential down-side is that he may get a permanent job which would mean a bit of a sob fest for me. I can't imagine being parted from my beloved Ella Enchanting. Of course I'm being selfish and truly am thrilled my son has this fab opportunity.

My other incredible son, Jeremy, was just elected secretary of his union. Did I mention my sons are both progressive liberals bent on creating change for the greater good? Fortunately Jeremy's job doesn't require re-location so he and his lovely wife, Michelle, will remain in the Madison area. (Hope another grandchild is in the future. Now I am sounding like Raymond's mother, Marie!:))

More to come, stay tuned..........
