The Adventure Begins.

Monday June 14 We boarded the overnight Chiang Mai to Bangkok train at about 5:20pm. Samantha was very excited to be taking the ‘Dinosaur Train’ to go visit her triceretops friends in Penang. For the uninitiated, Dinosaur Train is a PBS Kids cartoon. So,...

Stale Blogging….

… that’s what you get when you’re so busy that you can’t get on the computer for a week.We just spent 5 days in Penang, Malaysia, and had an awesome time. But with Mum and Master One both sick as dogs, and Miss Three chomping at the bit to see...

Not a Morning person…

I’m a total night owl. I love staying up to the wee hours of the morning, enjoying the quiet and recharging in total solitude after a crazy day.I hate early mornings. Even if I go to bed at 9pm, I’ll still resent the 6am alarm. One of my old room mates...

Daybook May 31, 2010

Outside my window… rainy season has finally come. But it’s not as is should be. Most days the clouds darken the sky, the wind picks up and whips through the trees. But then the rain doesn’t fall. And if it does, it’s not the hard, monsoon rains...

Mummy’s Little Helper

Today we had a lady come and clean our house. Her method for mopping floors was rather interesting. She took a wash cloth and wet it (I don’t think she used floor cleaner), got down on her hands and knees and ‘mopped’ my floors. We’re talking...

All is Quiet

I couldn’t get to sleep last night. I think it was curfew induced insomnia. Finally, around 2am I fell asleep and then my beloved son woke me at 6:30am. All was quiet. An update from the US Consulate in Chiang Mai said, “Last night a band of UDD supporters...
