02.17.07From my French windowI have changed my blog's name back to it's original title. I decided that it was best to put everything back as it was before we move to the States. From my French window is perfect because this blog is a story about my personal life in France. I was thinking about creating a photoblog with this name since it seemed to fit perfectly. But, Vilay nixed that idea. He said that From my French window is taken already...by me. He is right. This blog is truly my French window. Besides, I am in love with French windows. I think they ...

01.15.07Keep your fingers crossedI have an interview! It would be for around $35000.00 per year. I'm not going to get my hopes up until the interview. I will only say that I do have a great chance of being hired due to my background. It would be Monday-Friday. And, I would be not only a manager but THE manager. Wish me luck.

11.04.06TestingI just upgraded my template to the newest model. This version has an Asides function that I am not sure how to use. So, this is a test to see if I have figured it out or not. O.k. It works like a charm. I really, really, really heart Wordpress!

10.25.06Four years just flew by…We bought Sweet Bear a birthday cake for her birthday. It is chocolate icing on yellow cake. She picked it because it had ballons painted on top of the cake on each side. In the middle we had "Happy Birthday Sweet Bear" written. She was very excited to get to pick out her own birthday cake. It is the first American style birthday cake that she will have since she was one. I love French cakes but think that American birthday cakes are the more special for kids. Kids love all that sugar and colorful fun in one big rectangle! I know I did. I ...

10.22.06What I have learned is…that I don't understand people. I just don't. Sometimes, I wonder if it isn't me that is the problem. Maybe...just maybe...I am a spoiled brat. I haven't really lived the life of a spoiled brat in many respects. I have had a hard life even if I think it has been very beautiful at times. I could tell you stories about my childhood that would make you wonder. I do understand that we all have those stories. But, my parents did spoil me in many ways. I see that now. I don't think I am spoiled now. As a mother and ...

10.20.06Hanging aroundI am still here. I am working and trying to get my certification for teaching in Florida lined up. I have found my best friend from high school that was, also, my room mate in college. We are trying to find a time to get together and I am very excited about that. It has been over 10 years since we have seen each other. We are not living with my mother. We are now staying with my father. I don't want to get into it but it has been a blow on our family. I have told you in the ...

10.10.06moving alongWe mailed out all the paperwork for Vilay's greencard and work authorization. It should arrive at the lockbox of the immigration service department sometime within the next few days. It is such a relief to have it out of our hands. We can only wait now. The second announcement is I have a job! Actually, I have two part-time jobs as of today. Neither of the jobs pay much. The thing is I don't want to get into a "real" job since we are planning on moving in the next three months. I don't ...

10.01.06Out of the mouths of babesVilay was finishing up painting my mother's laundry room. Sweet Bear and Petite Clown were wrestling and giggling as they watched their father from the doorway of the kitchen which leads into the laundry room. Vilay and I were talking about how the painting was going. Actually, I was asking him if he had managed to cover up the bright yellow that my mother had painted the room a couple years back. Sweet Bear piped right up to defend her father. She told me with knowing eyes, "Papa is doing a good job, Mama." I smiled at my babies big ...

09.27.06Immigration headachesI have been busy filling out forms and copying documents for Vilay to get the greencard. I will say that while in France it is not always easy to get the 10 year card...it doesn't require quite so many forms or dollars. It is going to cost us a little under one thousand dollars to get it all done. I am not including the cost of copying documents or the passport type photos of myself or Vilay that are required. I am not looking forward sitting for hours and hours at the Cincinnati immigration building as ...
