Norm returned from Scotland last week and Lily headed back to George until she starts her new job at the end of March. It was so nice to have Norm home, I love that I get a decent snore free night's sleep when he is away, but I do miss him. The girls were a …

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
When I received the notification that La Mouette had implemented a new menu I was of course front of the queue to try it. We had thought that Caitlin and I would be home alone this week with Norm off in Scotland so we booked for the 2 of us to celebrate starting her new …
The Pipes Are Calling
We have had a sad and stressful last few weeks, my mother in law had a bleed to the brain and passed away. Norm was the oldest of 5 and helped raise his siblings and he and his Mum were very close. At 85 she was still living on her own so she was doing …

Being Free
My Mom has come to South Africa for a visit. She arrived late on Monday evening. Hard to believe she has already been here almost a week! It goes too fast, She hasn't been here since July 2010. And I haven't been to the USA since BFB. That means 'before Facebook' so I can't look …
