The secret; the Gipsy Kings

It helped to sit where very few people were. I did note in the restroom of
the theater that someone had a crying child (a two-year-old) in tow, and I
wondered what they could be thinking to bring a child to such an event. But
I heard nothing once the music started. It's not the kind of music you'd
want a child sleeping on your lap for. You're expected to get up and dance
during the concert.

I'll definitely take earplugs next time. I do have several pairs at home.

Yes, the Secret does work.

Dear Christina,

We’re back from our brief vacation and are reasonably rested now. I got your e-mail regarding the substitution choice so I can now finish up the drawing. Anytime that you’d like to schedule an appointment is fine with me as long as it is after this weekend as we’ll be busy until then. Let me know at your earliest convenience.

Thanks,
Susan

The Holocaust and travels

I’ve never even been to the holocaust museum here. But I grew up learning all about the holocaust. All my schools had at least 50% Jews, so holocaust material was a big part of our curriculum. I’ve also known a hand full of survivors and heard stories from them and their children. And I’ve visited Israel many times (because my sister lives there), so I’ve seen the memorials and museums there, too. I’d like to concentrate on more positive aspects of life. About the past, I’d like to see the environs that inspired the authors whom I’ve long admired. You should definitely plan a trip to Prague. It is an amazing city. When I looked around, for the first time I felt “these are my people; these people look like me more than the people anywhere else I’ve been.”
