The Potty Diaries: The Gallery #3; Blue

The Gallery #3; Blue

>> Wednesday, 17 March 2010

When I saw Tara's prompt for this week's Gallery - colour - I knew immediately which photo I would post.

Husband took it 2 1/2 years ago when we were on holiday somewhere exotic (can you tell it was pre-credit crunch?). We have a framed print of this photo on the window in our sitting room - somewhat ironic as it's backdrop at the moment is a snowy landscape comparable to Narnia...

Happy Wednesday!

Trish @ Mum's Gone to..., 17 March 2010 08:10: Oh a perfect shot - I want to go there now please!
littledude's mummy, 17 March 2010 08:16: Oooh, gorgeous!
It looks like one of those art prints you can buy & dream of far off places while you gaze at it!
Very Bored in Catalunya, 17 March 2010 08:27: That's gorgeous, you'd never tire of looking at that. xx
Muddling Along Mummy, 17 March 2010 08:40: Oh that's a great picture - those were the days?!
Brit in Bosnia / Fraught Mummy, 17 March 2010 08:50: That just must seem a million miles away from where you are right now. Gorgeous picture, not surprised you have it up and framed. It must look fab! x
Tara@Sticky Fingers, 17 March 2010 09:12: Oh wow. That looks like one of those art prints you can buy and have framed.
Absolutely stunning: and 'blue' doesn't quite do it justice!
sharon, 17 March 2010 09:25: Close to perfection PM. If wishes were horses (well ok, aeroplanes would be better) where would you be now?
The Green Stone Woman, 17 March 2010 09:25: It's a wonderful photo, PM, it looks like an art shot. I can imagine that it gives you very good feelings to look at it. Especially now! I do hope you get some really great photos of Moscow too, though.
Nicola, 17 March 2010 12:40: So beautiful. I am so envious (even if it was over 2 years ago and you are now in snow bound Moscow...)
Nova, 17 March 2010 14:43: Stunning. :0)
marisworld, 17 March 2010 15:40: Magnificent and oh how I want to be there right now. Beautiful shot
planb, 17 March 2010 15:44: Oh please may I go too?! Somehow London doesn't ever seem to do that precise shade!
Nappy Valley Housewife, 17 March 2010 16:43: Beautiful photo. I desperately long to be there right now, basking in the sun, on a lounger, preferably with a tropical drink in my hand.
rosiescribble, 17 March 2010 16:55: That photo is just fabulous. To be there now would be just perfect!
nappy valley girl, 17 March 2010 18:10: Beautiful.....I am having serious holiday withdrawl symptoms now.
Life through the Slim Lens, 17 March 2010 19:05: Beautiful!
Modern Dilemma, 17 March 2010 19:06: oh too lovely. I didn't dare start looking through holiday pics for fear of a holiday withdrawal breakdown.

After 5 1/2 years of blogging I have finally turned on the word verification thingammyjig. 3 months of deleting 50 + spam comments a day will do that to you. Please bear with the incredibly annoying word verification whilst I try to sort the problem and/or find a better solution; for now I would love it if you would still go to the trouble of commenting...

Potty Mummy

Moscow, Russia

Dictionary definition of Potty: 'somewhat silly or crazed, addlebrained'. I started this blog to share the benefit of my - admittedly limited - experience of potty training my two boys, and to show that whilst it can be hell, it also can be done. All things must pass though (thank goodness - my sons are now 8 and 6), and potty training for us has been consigned to history, so this has become more of a blog to stop me becoming potty than about the potty. And if you can understand my twisted logic, I hope you enjoy these extremely subjective anecdotes on being a stay-at-home mum transplanted to Moscow and still coming to terms with not also being a career woman. Really. You'd think I'd be over it by now; it's been 5 years since I last worked in an office - and went to the loo with the door shut - after all... You can also find me writing as Clare Taylor on Powder Room Graffiti and in the blog section of the Moscow Times on 'Diaries of a Moscow Mum'.

And be polite. The moment I put pen to paper or fingers to keys, all content, photos, or images on this blog (unless otherwise credited) are copyright me, me, me.
