I'm reading (and listening to) Anna Karenina. Reading when I feel like going out with a book, and listening to it when I want to rest my eyes. I'm almost to the mazurka, which I'm saving for a prize when I finish my goal for the day.

I love the feel of this place that you've made and maintain for us. What ARE you doing out playing soccer, when you have all these deadlines and children's activities and such going on? See...Greeks are bossy, too! :) Just ask my husband. Susan, thank you! I already feel at home here. I love the feel of this place that you’ve made and maintain for us.

What wonderful stories and wonderful things to know about each of you. And Despina, welcome! I hope you'll share more stories from Sparta! I have a very special place in my heart for Greeks, because when I passed out on the soccer field today, it was my Greek teammate who carried me to the shade! Despina, Brad, Sarah, Carolyn, Gail, and T,

I was born in a little village near Sparta, Greece. My father was the schoolteacher in the village, a position held in high esteem. My, how values change! I was the first child and I was born at home. The village doctor and midwife (husband and wife) came by mule or donkey, which I suppose would translate to sedan or mini cooper today. They delivered me and, as was the custom, were offered the honor of becoming my Godparents. Well, as was also the custom then, boys were more valuable than girls, so this loving medical couple declined, wishing to hold out for "the boy". The second and last child was born at home too; she was a girl. Her Godparents were the village doctor and midwife. Life CAN bring a sense of humor!

Don't remember anything about it, but my mother tells me that the first thing I did on planet Earth was pee in the doctor's face. A fitting tribute to the man who delivered me out of amniotic bliss.
