Back in the U.S.A.
The Boyfriend and I are venturing out of Le Petit Village and headed stateside to visit my father in the Berkshires and some friends in New York. This is The Boyfriend’s first trip to the States and I’m so excited to show him around, catch up with friends and family and spend a week surrounded…

They Make Curtains
As much as I love my cozy little abode with it’s large spiral staircase smack dab in the middle of the living room, I covet the house next door. It’s old, but not too old, probably about one hundred years. So not old enough to give me the heebie jeebies if I was lucky enough…

Leashless in Le Creepy Village
The Boyfriend takes Fifty for his last walk of the evening. I’ve got day duty, The Boyfriend has night duty. When I walk Fifty, we have three different routes out of the village that we take, just to mix it up. One, for when I’m in a hurry and just want him to do what…

How I Spent I.D.A.
As much as I would have loved to have spent I.D.A. (International Day of Awesomeness, aka my birthday) pampering in some spa somewhere, that was not on the cards, I live in Le Petit Village, not Paris. So since I wasn’t able to get my tootsies tinkled or soak in a bath of mud, I…

Deep Thoughts… With Fifty
Why won’t that crazy schedule lady just leave me alone? Really, can’t I just have five minutes of peace. I bet when I turn around she’ll be standing there staring at me… Yep. Of course she is. Is it really necessary for me to be bilingual? Just pick a language and go with it. I’m…

A Not So Relaxing Evening
Papa’s Wife invited us over for dinner, she was cooking The Boyfriend’s ‘favorite’ her couscous. The Boyfriend was looking forward to the meal, I was looking forward to a nice relaxing evening that I didn’t have to prepare and clean up after. Getting ready to leave, The Boyfriend grabbed the car keys and Fifty. I…

Stinky & Freezing
Woke up to this… … more snow. And no hot water. Did I mention it’s freezing? If the hot water doesn’t get fixed soon I’m going to have to change my name to Stinky in Le Petit Village. But guess who loves it… I really want to take a shower. And not a freezing cold…

The Last Saturday
There was something sad about Saturday. Sure it was the weekend, but it heralded the beginning of the end of the holiday season. With New Years over and work looming on Monday, Saturday sort of felt just like a regular Saturday, but being the 2nd of January, I guess it was. We decided to take…
