It's official. I'm a bad blogger. So, if anyone still comes this way, I would like ideas as to what to write about that could be of interest!
In the meantime, I can show a few pictures of our new place... The move went smoothly, even though we realized once the previous owners' furniture was out, that the whole of the upstairs carpet needed replacing... a trip to Carpet Giant followed, and two days later we were the proud owners of a brand new thick carpet. Three bedrooms were also repainted, a pool fence installed, and a built-in microwave added to the kitchen. We have met a few neighbors, and the area is very international: we are surrounded by Argentinians, Chinese, Azerbaidjanis, Indians, Poles and even a few Americans too. Sounds very promising for when Madeleine goes to the local elementary school and gets to meet children from all sorts of cultural backgrounds.

Hurrah!! You've done it - updated the blog and I just happened upon it by chance and of course will be back if you're going to add photos & news of the 'hood, where you've been (how about inlcuding a descriptive post of a trip to Costco...?), how life is generally now you've settled down and why you're enjoying it back in Houston so much etc. etc. Als what you might be interested in taking photos of, and why, and anything else you're doing (what about those baby showers you were organising?)
ReplyDeleteGreat to see the photos fo the house & pool - and I can't wait to be there!!

great to see the photos of your place; I had been expecting them for quite a while. I am looking forward to more and-this is a personal requirement- don't forget that a pen and a sheet of paper are still the best means of communication I can think of, if you can spare some time. Love to the three of you. Maman
