I ordered the kids a pizza and we headed out. The King took me on a date. First we took a subway to Columbus circle, The King made some cigar selections……………….
Edgar the Duck
Upon reading my I kill more that I save post, the King reminded me of Edgar. Edgar lived, his story should be told. Many years ago while driving to our mountain studio, our business partner Wazza saved a duckling from certain death while it was trying to cross the busy road. It was alone and separated from his mother and siblings. …
Illusive Sleep, I count 855,000 Sheep
Sleep is for chumps. I’m convinced of this……. it must be true. I know this because I’m the only person in this house not sleeping, so either my family are all lovely, rested chumps or I am 🙁 Maybe no sleep is for chumps……. Why has my ability to sleep left me? I can’t get to sleep at night and …
Week One Down on the No Booze Train
After a week of The King entertaining business guests and travelling to Montclair on the weekend where we usually get ON IT, I’ve done remarkably well not having a drink. I haven’t even missed it really. I certainly have slept better and had no tummy issues. I think The King is trying to make up for my lack of consumption. …
Glory Be to the King
We attended a party recently which had a dress code of summer chique, now I have things that work for that dress code but the King, not being a slave to fashion, did not. He was however determined to impress and went shopping on the friday before to procure said garments… This in itself is an anomaly….. he came home …
No Wonder I’m Nuts

We lost ………………….. 🙂 King: Let’s go out for a hit of tennis after dinner kids kids both falling asleep in their dinner plates: nah bit tired …
Little Miss Gremlin’s Business Trip
Little Miss Gremlin has been feeling left out this week with her brother away. I thought she would revel in the alone time but she has been moody, teary and lethargic. She missed him way more than I ever thought she would. They get on very well and love each other but they also push each others buttons in a …
I Sent Him to the Vet, oh Yes I Did!
Just before Miss Gremlin was ready to arrive, we knew we were probably finished having children. We had a boy and a girl as well as the Princess and we were pretty happy with that. After Miss Gremlin was born we were totally convinced. She was huge, 10lbs born. My poor body said Ok seriously? You can’t possibly make me …
Never Say Never
The King spent many years convincing me that we were never going to get married or have children. He had been married before and after that ended, he felt that he’d done that and didn’t want to do it again. I resisted of course, wanting to have children, wanting to be married, arguing for my side, on many occasions until …
USA vs OZ
I’ve had a request to make some comparisons between living in the US and living in Australia. There are many and they are varied so I will pick the most obvious and crazy. First of all let me clarify that New York isn’t really the US, it’s has a whole other set of rules. However in saying that it is …
