I am home; safe and sound and content.
I’m sorry I had to be away for so long, but I don’t regret it. This experience was important, and part of the way my family demonstrate their love for me is by making the spaces for me to go out and learn, whenever – and wherever – the opportunities present themselves.
I suspect that a fair bit of my continued thinking and writing about the Shoah fellowship will happen over here. Like my experiences with the yoga training, I don’t want to bog everyone here down with too much of a single topic, so I’ll post the majority of Holocaust- and learning-related things at the teacher blog. I welcome your thoughts, comments, and questions there.
Today, though? Today, I’m going to enjoy being home. I’m teaching my fitness classes in about an hour, then I’m coming back to get the girls and visit with my adopted family – my grandparents and my mother. It will be good to see them all, and to re-ground myself in who I am and where I come from because, despite their having adopted me, they ARE where I come from. Today will be about taking care of me and soaking in as much of the people that I love as I can. I think that doing so will help me maintain my center, and I integrate learning best when I’m feeling centered.
Happy Sunday, Everyone!






Happy Sunday to you! And Welcome Home!
“There’s no place like home. There’s no place like home.”
By the way, I’m reading The Book Thief.
What is better than a nice homecoming? Not much!
Welcome Home! It’s hard to be away from your kids, isn’t it? I had a great time in Spain, Nashville, too, but it really sucked being gone from my girls.
Welcome Home, Kiddo.
A banner to welcome you back! You lucky girl!
What a nice sight to come home to… other than the hubs and the girls, of course. I know you got some good hugs too.
Missed seeing you ’round, but I’m glad your trip was all that you hoped for and more.
Welcome home, Chili. I can’t wait to hear even more about your trip. Have I told you lately that the world is such a better place because you’re in it? It is.
Love the banner! What a great welcome home, on top of the hugs and kisses.
