The title of this post has absolutely nothing to do with anything. I’ve had Carly Simon stuck in my head for days, I’m hoping this might exorcise her.

I got up, had breakfast and I've read your new lines… Those are definitely the news I enjoy to read in the morning! I was on a cloud having my coffee… Merci Sara!

Dude. Scorpions are so not ok! Especially not on your staircase! For some reason I had it in my head that scorpions and other undesirables didn't live in Provence. I think of it as the fairyland that has sunshine and wine and lavender. Damn. But, I'll be honest, it does make me a little homesick to think of Texas scorpions…

We get those little scorpions too, I hate em. The number of times I've sent my husband to choose a DVD (this is in the olden days when we used to actually go to a DVD shop) and he comes back with one we've already seen …. this is why I am in charge of entertainment. I love Wall-E and always cry (over robots who can't feel anything). Ridiculous. Who needs a circus when you have Brasil Day? Our circus must be more expensive than yours, as we got a camel with our llama, horse, goat, dog and kitten. Camels are a big deal you know.

You're killing me here with your little bits of wisdom. It is wisdom you're spewing, right?Anyway, I'm glad that laptop didn't fall on your face. That wouldn't have been pretty! And no, don't argue with a 90 year old. They'll most likely get the last word!m.

When I was a child they used to tell us that squirrels have short memories- they bury acorns for winter, forget where they put them and that's how new oak trees grow. And that's exactly how my husband is. He can not find a shirt hanging in his closet or remember what did with the pair of scissors he just had and he certainly can not remember if we have a movie on DVD 🙂

As soon as I read the title I was humming Carly Simon's song! It may be raining here in the UK but there are no scorpions. Having said that, I'd still rather be in Provence right now…http://missbbobochic.blogspot.co.uk/

Funny, just rewatched “A Good Year” over the weekend with its scorpion in Provence. As long as it's not poisonous, I'd rather meet a scorpion than one of those humongous Provençal spiders.

Scorpions?! Ahhhhhhh! How do you kill/release a scorpion?!?!You're a brave girl, Sara Louise.I'm so sorry to have read that you lost your father. I didn't know that. I was dealt with this deck of cards as well, and like you, I was far from home when it happened and had to rush back to New York. Again, I'm so sorry…there is no pain like losing a parent…

Hey sorry you missed the circus and the fireworks! Is it true that lavender keeps scorpions away and that is why people in Provence keep bunches of lavender near their doors and windows?

I don't know but I'm going to google and find out! I never saw a scorpion in the old LPV so it was quite a shock to see them here. And there was another one this morning!

My preferred method of killing a scorpion involves my flip-flop and a lot of rage.

X-Men First Class IS a great flick but The Husband, as always, is a giant dork. What's a little circus or some crummy fireworks when you've got BRAZIL DAY?!?!? Let's hope the sand is a little deeper this year so no injuries befall my boyfriend. xScorpions??? Ew.

Wow, I have never seen a scorpion in France. That must have been scary!I love that you watched fireworks on your computer! So cute!I only have one Dad and my Mom passed away ten years ago so it is very important for me to be able to spend some time with my Dad. It is hard for me that he is on another continent at the moment.

Whoa, I can't believe there were scorpions! Scary stuff! Haha and I like the idea of holding the laptop over you face, I'm going to have to try it even if it's not as good as the real thing :)And thank you for the comment you left on my blog. I always get told to 'relax' and it's the worst advice ever. I would if I could!
