Editor's Note

Besides being Easter, it is also my mother's 88th birthday. Big celebration is now underway with friends from overseas, family, and everyone else. Blogging will return later tonight.

If I remember right that she's Russian,
С Днем Рождения!

James. She is 100% Russian. She is also from a generation that appreciates these things. So thank you for your wishes.

On a side note .... it was quite a sight to see some of her friends and listen to their opinions on the present situation in Ukraine and Russia today. They are all in their late 80s and 90s .... they know the history (they lived it) ... and what they had to do to survive would make any person's jaw drop. From their perspective .... today's conflict is insignificant when compared to what they had to go through to survive .... and they are right.

I bet they also believe we could be back in times like that in a blink of an eye. Listen to them, it'll probably be your last chance with many.
