Going Home

Hi All:

On my way by vehicle across Saskatchewan, Manitoba and northern Ontario. so far we made it to North Bay where we have taken a breather so that I can get my fix of shopping. On my way home to visit family. Last year at this time I went home to bury my Dad and end a family relationship with one of my sisters. So I have mixed feelings about going home. Love my Mum and other sister, my children and my grandchildren (all of which live in Southern Ontario) but boy is it bringing back some feelings from last year. Also family is a mixed blessing. Both joyful and painful.

Broken families

I was listening to the radio on the way home from work today and they had some focus on the family or some such woman going on and on about broken families.  Not single parent families but "broken" families with much emphasis.  She was saying how much broken families cost tax payers and a broken family is more likely to live in poverty.
