Merry Christmas

From Moscow with love

I am interrupting my verbal meanderings to wish my family, friends, colleagues and subscribers the whiteness of a safe Christmas. Olga and I will be doing sushi and champagne here in Moscow, preparing for our second, Russian, Christmas on Jan. 7. I’ll be turning 87 on January 1st, so now my birthday is sandwiched between two holidays,

Olga’s life this year has been super busy playing nursemaid to me while attending to all the details of creating our new condo in the same community. Our granddaughter, Masha, will be moving into our current space.

As for me, I’m a hair’s breadth away from being an legal Resident. I spend 12 hours a day on line during my winter months, and that includes long stretches talking to my brother. And I am still running ieiMedia’s summer programs abroad.

As for the pandemic, grrrrr!

Olga and I will remember all of you in our prayers in sending good New Year vibes your way.
