Apologies

I can only apologize for the very poor frequency of these posts. It should really be a my August resolution to do this twice-monthly, put the date in my diary, and just do it. So I'll try. No promise but I will try.

The main news since my last entry is the fact that we are in the process of buying our very own American-dream house (we're talking POOL here), in our favourite school district (2 minutes' drive from a fab elementary). Everyhting is in place and we should be getting the keys on Monday, moving in the following week.
Otherwise M is starting school full time next week at a French-speaking pre-school, the cats have put on weight after being fed too much by the cat sitter during the 3 weeks we were away, we saw practically all the family in Europe during our trip there, we got cold on a beach in France (retreated to a cafe for a warm crepe), but right now it is warmer in Northern France than in Houston. Go figure. Oh, and we also spent a week in Iceland on the way back to Houston.
