Tea and Sympathy: Mar 4, 2012
http://stacyingber.blogspot.com/2012_03_04_archive.html
Sunday, March 4, 2012. Becoming a man . . . mazel tov. What does that even mean? Is it the physical appearance when a child morphs into an adult? Is it by thoughts, deeds, actions, words? Is it the first time when the peach-fuzz turns to whiskers and are ripe for removal? It is the confluence of all of these and then some. However, with the loss of the soft fuzzy hair came an understanding that I have been longing for. He does see me as his only and his one. Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,.

Tea and Sympathy: The High School Years Begin
http://stacyingber.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-high-school-years-begin.html
Tuesday, August 14, 2012. The High School Years Begin. Today my son would be entering high school with his friends from many years. However, he will make this transition in a few weeks in his school out of state. It is at these rituals where I become a bit of a weepy mess. Our normal is not one that feels familiar or right. I want to be able to watch parents and children together, but find that I have zero tolerance for the sight of them and god forbid the sounds of a crying toddler. During this time, I ...

Tea and Sympathy: My Ghost Sings Haunted Heart
http://stacyingber.blogspot.com/2012/11/my-ghost-sings-haunted-heart.html
Monday, November 12, 2012. My Ghost Sings Haunted Heart. Ghost, you torment me night and day, day and night. Your dedication to me is overwhelming. Really, you could take a break and it would not hurt. Everywhere I go, I see you . . . even in my sleep;. In windows, on streets, through school-yard fences;. I see your face in small children in their mother's arms -a time I did not have;. From the toddler boy in a stroller or playing with their toy car;. To the all-knowing tweens and teens around the city;.

Tea and Sympathy: Oct 8, 2011
http://stacyingber.blogspot.com/2011_10_08_archive.html
Saturday, October 8, 2011. Altered States: California and Utah. My son is a very social child, making friends wherever he goes and easily adapting to new environments. It is the sustaining these environments that are a challenge. I hear that all is going well, friends are being made, football is being played, and there has even been a visit to the nurse. All very normal behaviors. That is great! Coming back and being in my home the last eight days, I feel lost, unmoored, as if I have lost a limb. I m...

Tea and Sympathy: 10 cups of espresso with a packet of adrenaline
http://stacyingber.blogspot.com/2012/10/10-cups-of-espresso-with-packet-of.html
Monday, October 15, 2012. 10 cups of espresso with a packet of adrenaline. I am sitting here in the light of a laptop awaiting the return of the boy to his school. This first home visit was one that we were so excited about and filled with much promise. Coming in at gate 13 (omen or coincidence that is his birthday? Brought the light of my life into view. As I try to stay awake for what will be the ripping of the child from my arms, I will turn around, walk upstairs, and take a sleeping pill. This, I...

Sunday, April 29, 2012. Hold On For One More Day. Writing this blog about stress is really stressing me out. I wanted to find a way to share how relaxed and easy my visit was with the man-child, but one look in his eyes and I could see a life of worry. Worry about doing the right thing, worry about being flexible, worry about worry. It was so evident. And then . . . For an interesting read on anxiety, check out this.

Wednesday, February 18, 2015. Walter Roberts: The Impact of U.S. Cold War Public Diplomacy - "The Most Effective Way of Influencing.Was the Voice of America". You have to divide the Soviet bloc, Yugoslavia and the West. As far as the Soviet bloc is concerned, I have not the slightest doubt that the most effective way of influencing the Hungarian, the Romanian and the Soviet peoples was the Voice of America. When I walked into his office, I immediately realized that he was going to play a trick here becau...
