“She had always refused the idea that her children could be an impediment to her success, to her freedom. Like an anchor that drags you to the bottom, that pulls the face of the drowned man into the mud. At first, the realization that she was wrong had plunged her into a profound sadness. She thought it unjust, terribly frustrating. She became aware that she could never live without feeling that she was incomplete, that she was doing things badly, sacrificing one part of her life for another. She had made a big deal out of this, refusing to renounce her dream of the ideal balance. Stubbornly thinking that everything was possible, that she could reach all her objectives, that she wouldn’t end up bitter or exhausted. That she wouldn’t play the role of a martyr or of the perfect mother.”
–Leila Slimani, from “The Perfect Nanny” (2017, transl. 2018)

DESANTIS KICKS OFF CAMPAIGN: U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., will formally launch his campaign for governor during an event in Palm Beach County. (Monday, 11 a.m., Embassy Suites by Hilton Boca Raton, 661 N.W. 53rd St., Boca Raton.)
“The meaning of the city’s name is often mistakenly interpreted as the literal translation of the Spanish “Boca Raton” (“Rat’s Mouth”) but the origin of the name is more likely derived from a more colloquial translation, “Thieves Inlet”, which probably refers to a nearby geographical inlet in the Biscayne Bay area.”

Very appropriate.

De Santis again…No please. He has done nothing for us here in his district he keeps working for the Federal Administration only. That is not what he was elected for. He needs to run for WH aide or department head or vice of Trump….
