A tough month

I realize that my bloggin has slowed a bit in the last few weeks. But there were reasons (there always are). For one thing, I was out of the country on what turned out to be a tough trip from which I am only now sort of getting myself sorted out.

The holidays are coming (has Hannukah already gotten going?). This Christmas should be a quiet time for the wife and I. I am looking forward to a low-key day followed shortly by the arrival of my parents for a visit that will span a few days on either side of New Year's Eve. And then a new year begins...

Somehow, despite the good things that have happened this year, I am left feeling a bit depressed and possessed of perhaps a touch of foreboding about the coming year. I don't know why.

I have to say, I miss the crazy travel opportunities, but it always took me twice as long as I was away (max = 2 weeks) to adjust to normal life.

Welcome back, my man! Actually Hannukah is really late this year. It starts AFTER christmas. I know the sense of depression of which you speak, and I will soon have something up on my own weblog that will hopefully add some cheer.

Justin,
That is so true. And as I get older, that old "recovery ratio" is getting worse and worse.

Happy holidays out there in Cali.

You too, rebbe.
