Bright Purple Rain Boots. An American Expat Dodging Snails on the Sidewalk. Possible move back to the US. In Daily Life in Medway, Kent. Married to a Brit. On a visa note, those of you who may have gone through this wonderful process may have had experiences like ours where we filled out the immigrant petition form and they sent a different form back (we hadn’t even been led online to the right one) *graded* in angry red pen.

Thursday, March 24, 2011. That's not my bag, baby. (because there isn't enough crap in it.). Day 13: a description of what is in your bag/purse/diaper bag. You want to know what makes me really happy? Not carrying a diaper bag anymore. Potty trained kids rule! I don't even have to carry a giant purse. But I still choose to! Here you go, what's in my purse:. Three individually wrapped Boogie Wipes. Extra Polar Ice gum and 7 crumpled up gum wrappers. Four packs of fruit snacks. CO Bigelow Lemon Lip Cream.

Saturday, May 14, 2011. I need this book. You need this book. The first page of the book. The cats nestle close to their kittens now. The lambs have laid down with the sheep. You're cozy and warm in your bed, my dear. Please go the fuck to sleep. If you're a parent, and you've never felt like this, I think you are seriously deluded. And lying to all of us.

Friday, June 10, 2011. Oy Things have been crazy around here and I have had zero time to write anything. This semester is hard and I'm being pulled in a million different directions. I have lots of post running through my head. I will get to them soon. I promise. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ali loves coffee, sunshine, and a nice glass of wine.

Thursday, April 28, 2011. I'm taking a little break from the 30 days (or 3 months) post-a-thon. Mother's Day is coming up, and these are the items I am lusting over. But will not receive, unless Lily gets a job sometime soon. Mama and baby bird necklace from Figs and Ginger. I love, love, love this. And I love that it's just the mama, it's hard to find family jewelry for the single mama. Both of these are from The Vintage Pearl. The first is the key to my heart. Is just so cute. Sorry Not doing this one.

Friday, June 12, 2009. Where does the good go? I haven't been posting as much as I would like. I hope that we have reached rock bottom. I keep thinking that we've hit it but yet.Andy finds another way to make things harder. And sometimes I'm not very good at not letting things bother me. I'm working on it. I need some therapy. I need a vacation. My 31st. Birthday is 8 weeks from yesterday and all I want for my birthday is a divorce. 31.I really thought my life would be so different. Sunday, June 7, 2009.

Monday, February 22, 2010. You are 2 now! All of the sudden you are this big kid. Every day I marvel at how grown up you have become. You are a constant source of delight. You wake up happy and ready to take on the day, every day. And you manage to squeeze the life out of every moment. I am worn out by the end of the day, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Sunday, February 14, 2010. We'd only been married a year and a half! How terrible for him, for us, that I didn't know! So I left. I made the ch...

Tuesday, July 28, 2009. It's been an emotional day. Again. Things I've learned this year. Don't date, marry, or reproduce with an alcoholic, recovering or not. Don't get married without a prenup. Maybe don't get married at all. Expect to be disappointed, that way, you never will be. Just because you work really hard at being the bigger person, doesn't mean other people will. We all could use some therapy. Get a good attorney, and get one earlier than you think. Your baby will always make your day better.

Thursday, May 28, 2009. So I totally get. That it is important for Lily to spend time with her dad, and that he needs to see her, and that it is good for me to get a break once in a while. I get it. But the weekends without Lily can suck it. I miss my bug. Tuesday, May 26, 2009. I find it truly disappointing. Monday, May 25, 2009. First in Line, Matthew Mayfield. Sleeping to Dream, Jason Mraz.
