Here I am, back on the Blogger platform. I was able to restabilize my computer by de-installing the auto update of Firefox, then deleting all my preference folders and then re-installing (using Opera). Right now, all three of the browsers I was using during that trying time have become stable. However, when I look at [...]

Still in Blogger…

My 400th post is actually a move: from Blogger to WordPress
Posted in blogging on November 2, 2009 | 2 Comments »
For some strange reason, I am having major crash problems within Google, both in Reader and here on the Blogger platform. It’s been so bad that I actually shut down Firefox and installed Opera, but it’s still happening. Right now, I can’t even open my own web site to look at it and even though I [...]
An Expat Meme…
Posted in blogging, ex-pat life, memes on September 23, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Ian ran this meme and I thought it would be interesting to answer these questions as well. I won’t tag anyone, but if anyone runs it, drop a line so we can check it out. How long have you lived away from your home country? It’s been 26 months now. Do you still feel like [...]
Here and gone again.

I pulled my last post, so it’s interesting to see who can comment on it:). I did so not because anything I said was too strong or because I didn’t mean it, but because I was afraid that someone involved might recognize themselves and I didn’t want that. It’s at times like this that I [...]

The commute is supposed to run fro early Monday (leaving before 5 am) until lateish on Thursday (sometimes after 22:00) but a few times it has run into Friday. Last night was one of those and when he got in, very late, we thought [...]

Mother’s Day Redux
Posted in blogging, Children, family, Judaism, memes on June 5, 2009 | 1 Comment »
It’s only been 26 days since Honeypiehorse at Our Feet are the Same tagged me to talk about five things I enjoy about motherhood. You can put it down to illness, travel and motherhood itself that had me go this long without responding, although I have been thinking about it…. One of the best aspects [...]
Charlotte’s questions…
Posted in blogging, Books, family, memes on March 4, 2009 | 2 Comments »
The lovely Charlotte, an expat blogger in Western Germany, has started another interview meme round, and one with very thoughtful questions (which is why they took me a while to answer). Here are the rules: 1. If you want to be interviewed, leave me a comment, and I will send you some questions (although probably [...]

These are from Norm Geras’ blog- always well worth reading: 2/13/09 Increase in antisemitism in Britain, and 1/3 Europeans say that Jews are responsible for world financial crisis.

10 Things I know…

Charlotte has tagged me for this meme and hers is a bit more cheery than mine. As I told her, I am in a bit of a funk. But this is What I Know (or at least a small and non-cheery part of it): The older I grow, the thinner my skin. If a day [...]
