A Perfectly Spooky Moment Monday
Before I get into this morning's Perfect Moment Monday post: to all those in the path of Hurricane Sandy, stay safe. If you get the orders to get out, get out. This lady is not to be trifled with. Seeing pictures of an already flooded Atlantic City, a childhood haunt of mine, has … Read More »

CD33: Perfect Moment Monday – In a Blue Moon
This Labor Day weekend was the first I'd had off - really actually had to myself - for the first time since I was probably 4 years old. I've lived my life by the school year calendar, the first chilly morning hints of fall ushering in another year of backpacks, textbooks and new … Read More »
CD26: My Three Wishes for the New Year
L'shana tovah, folks. The Jewish New Year begins an incredibly sacred period known as the Days of Awe. In synagogues around the world, Jews began yet another new year by hearing the story of Hannah chanted aloud. It's interesting how the subject of infertility gets perhaps one … Read More »
