Translation, S'il Vous Plaît?: November 2011
http://translationsilvousplait.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
We spent New Year's in Perpignan, where it got up to 18 C (65 F). Monday, 14 November 2011. Testing, testing. 1,2,3. This is an attempt to write. I haven’t written for years. I feel the muscles in my brain flail, the synapses firing without much response. A long, dull echo – nobody’s home. Where have I been all this time? Making adjustments. I can be called responsible, I suppose, for a full-time, energetic family of four where I am supposed to be the wife/mother/lover/cook/cleaner. Born in Southern Cali...

Translation, S'il Vous Plaît?: Crime and Punishment - Part II
http://translationsilvousplait.blogspot.com/2010/10/crime-and-punishment-part-ii.html
We spent New Year's in Perpignan, where it got up to 18 C (65 F). Monday, 18 October 2010. Crime and Punishment - Part II. Mom came to visit for two weeks and after she left, we took stock and realized Lulu was out of our control. He had basically treated his poor grandmother like his slave. On the last day, I spotted a wound in my mom's leg and asked her about it, and she said, "I didn't want to tell you. Lulu bit me the second day I was here." My reaction: WHAT? Since when does Lulu bite people? I had ...

We spent New Year's in Perpignan, where it got up to 18 C (65 F). Friday, 24 September 2010. It has been over a year since my last blog. If you are reading this, THANK YOU for making the effort. In a nutshell, here is what I can remember from the last year, in (nearly) chronological order:. From Aug 2009 to May 2010, I worked in an office environment that gave me the opportunity to practice my French, to work with French people and even to make some friends. Lulu started school (. And is enjoying it.

We spent New Year's in Perpignan, where it got up to 18 C (65 F). Friday, 24 July 2009. In the last three weeks, there were three major job-related developments:. 1)The interview I had earlier this month went well. I am to hear back from the school at the end of August; the headmistress/principal is away until then. During the interview she asked if I would also like to teach English to high schoolers. I said, "That doesn't scare me at all." Straight after, I had second thoughts. Born in Southern Califor...

Translation, S'il Vous Plaît?: April 2009

We spent New Year's in Perpignan, where it got up to 18 C (65 F). Monday, 27 April 2009. If you're happy and you know it. What is our 23-month old son Lulu doing these days? He taught himself how to skip a couple months ago. He likes to climb up and down the ladder at the playground, rather than go down the slide. But he still loves the slide, which he calls "bagon" (short for. He should actually say Boggan for short, but early on I incorrectly taught it to him as "tobAgon". Lulu still uses a sippy cup.

Translation, S'il Vous Plaît?: Crime and Punishment
http://translationsilvousplait.blogspot.com/2010/09/crime-and-punishment.html
We spent New Year's in Perpignan, where it got up to 18 C (65 F). Thursday, 30 September 2010. One of the hot issues in our household the last few months is how we should discipline our three-year-old son, Lulu. Overall he is a good kid, even adorable. He has a good sense of right and wrong and what's dangerous for him. He loves telling us to call the firemen when he thinks something has gone wrong ("apelle numero 18! Since he turned three, or possibly since his little sister arrived in June, he has been...
