"Happen?!?"

We have officially hit the “why?!?” stage, except for Hannah it is “happen?!?” instead. The phone rings…”happen?!?”, the washer starts spinning…”happen?!?”, a drop of milk spills….”happen?!?”

We have succeeded! It took about a week of constant reminders, a few tears about having to stop the fun activities to take a trip to the toilet, and washing several loads of pretty princess panties, but we did it!Ahhh, there is nothing better than hearing the pitter-patter of tiny feet running into the bathroom, [...]

trash talks

We are no longer shocked by the amount of trash that is littered along the streets of Aberdeen. There is just a different mindset here regarding cleanliness.
We do find ourselves chuckling however, about some of the warning labels we read on cigarette cartons found on the sidewalks as we pass. Along with those pictured below [...]

what I see

I am guest blogging for Tammy today and she asked me to write about life at King’s College. So rather than bore you about the ins and outs of my thesis or the details of my conference papers, I am blogging instead about what I see every day. I don’t mean what I see on [...]

I have mastered the art of procrastination, and have been suffering because of it the last several days!
Doing one’s laundry is quite an ordeal here…. one that I am still trying to figure out how to master.
