The Cruise is Booked!


As some of you may already know, this is the first time in twenty-years that my husband and I have been alone for two whole months. My son (who is a junior in college) got a great research job on campus (out of town) and my daughter (who is a junior in high school) got a great "job" as a counselor-in-training at a sleepaway camp. The reason her job is in quotes is that she is only getting paid in community service hours.

Yes, I miss them. But I decided to follow George Herbert's advice, who said, "Living well is the best revenge." And when the opportunity presented it itself to go on a Mediterranean cruise with another couple, we jumped on it.

We will be leaving in a few weeks. Here's how all this relates to you. I am planning on Twittering and uploading pictures as we go. If you'd like to follow along, you can do so in a variety of ways.

1) Sign up for email updates at here at BarbaraFeldman.com Look for the subscribe box on any page. It's kinda hidden, but it's there.

2) Sign up at Twitter then choose to follow me: http://www.twitter.com/barbarafeldman/

3) My tweets (as they are called) are always cross-posted to this blog. So you can also follow them here (look in the upper right hand corner of any page) or look at the Twitter Category without signing up for anything.

4) I am hoping to also post some pictures .. and I may end up using Flickr for that. We'll see.

The whole idea is to post updates, but not spend much time bogged down in the technology of it all.

Wheeee!!! Now I am getting excited.
