		<description><![CDATA[For me, there are many. The one on my mind today is the lovely weekend I just spent with friends, eating, going to the spa, laughing and relaxing. The kids were with Dad. Needless to say that before the divorce, I NEVER would have been able to go away for the weekend. I wasn&#8217;t even [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=seriousparenting.wordpress.com&amp;blog=5730684&amp;post=74&amp;subd=seriousparenting&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s December 21st and I&#8217;m basically done with the holiday madness. I love being Jewish. Our Hanukkah was extremely low key and successful. I even got three presents from my daughter — a wooden heart, a glass heart and a star with her picture in it. The theme was &#8220;I love Mommy.&#8221; Life is good.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=seriousparenting.wordpress.com&amp;blog=5730684&amp;post=72&amp;subd=seriousparenting&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Has that expression been forever tainted by George Bush? One Hanukkah party down. Accomplished: The consumption of 4.5 pounds of deli meat, 3 pounds of potatoes (latkes, baby!), 8 chocolate milks, a bottle of wine and countless cupcakes, cookies and doughnuts. A dreidel game, with no bloodshed. Pin the flame on the menorah. Everyone peeked.
