Working mum on the verge: Get with the Programme!

http://workingmumonverge.blogspot.com/2015/06/get-with-programme.html

Working mum on the verge. The truth about having it all . Saturday, 13 June 2015. Get with the Programme! I'm often heard to utter the phrase "Get with the programme" to hubby when he doesn't know what's going on in our family. He really seems to opt out of responsibility for ensuring things get done and that people, primarily Izzy, gets to where she needs to be with the right stuff and on time. However, there is one area where I stand firm. I do my side, he does his. Today, hubby said:. And resorting to...

http://workingmumonverge.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Working mum on the verge. The truth about having it all . Thursday, 19 June 2014.

On Saturday I told her that we needed to go to the greengrocers so she needed to hurry up and get dressed. A few mintues later she appeared wearing her City shirt. Odd", I thought, "City aren't playing today". And we set off. While you're a City fan, you can have a few extra".

Red, White and Bleu: Why am I doing this?

http://redwhiteandbleu.blogspot.com/2008/03/why-am-i-doing-this.html

Red, White and Bleu. London to Paris to London. A tale of two cities. Saturday, 22 March 2008. Why am I doing this? I launch myself into the abyss; what else can I do? I try to head for the side of the piste that does not appear to end in a hundred foot drop. The Frenchman has gone the other way. He says: "Follow me". Why would I do that? Do the French have some secret place they learn to ski so nobody can see them making fools of themselves? I say: "You are definitely trying to kill me.". Grumpy Old Ken...

Red, White and Bleu: Mean old boiler

http://redwhiteandbleu.blogspot.com/2009/06/mean-old-boiler.html

Red, White and Bleu. London to Paris to London. A tale of two cities. Thursday, 11 June 2009. Of course it was too good to be true. We've gone, oh I would say a few months without any water leaking in or on our apartment but experience has told us never to become too complacent. This time it was the boiler (again) and this time it was Nigella. I'll be over later," he says. I don't know why we don't just put him on a permanent retainer. I might just do that as soon as I've finished poisoning these apples.

A B C... Life at the Beginning of the Alphabet: We've had a busy week!

http://abc-ourlovebug.blogspot.com/2008/11/weve-had-busy-week.html

A B C Life at the Beginning of the Alphabet. Saturday, November 15, 2008. We've had a busy week! And got some things for potty training. I also bought all our favorite toiletries and food items, enough to last the rest of our tour in Italy. So, now you're probably asking. why, Abbey? Why would you subject yourself to three horrible months as a crazy consumer? 1 The shipping was free, arranged by B's job. 2 Clothing, even for children, is three times as much in Italy.
