I'm posting this week's BMB of the Week early as tomorrow it's Victory Day here in Russia, and we're going out to see the celebrations and join in the fun. Which you should, of course, expect to hear all about on this blog next week...
Also, the option of wearing some pretty sandals or sneakers has vastly opened up the chances of my wearing some of my summer clothes (the ones I remembered to pack, anyway). Again, jeans are all very well but it's 25degC here today (bet you never thought you would read that from a blogger in Moscow), and since our house doesn't have airco, well, it's best for everyone that I dress a little more coolly...
On top of which, anything which means I can minimise my time spent in shops is a good thing, not only because it's so galling being faced with the requirement to spend $100 to buy a pair of sandals from Zara or similar. It's also because, like this week's recommended British Mummy Blogger, I hate changing rooms with a passion.
Henrietta Pretty of From Marketing To Milk writes of herself:
'One day i woke up and Mrs Digital Marketing Manager had somehow become Mrs “no my son can’t swim yet, and i’m not sending him to french lessons with Daphne”. I decided to write this blog to chart my journey from successful career girl to stay at home mum, with a little bit of what i think about stuff along the way.'
Take a look at her musings on changing rooms and how the ageing process affects everyone but us - we like to think - and enjoy.

Good choice! And seriously, can I buy you shoes over here and send them out? How galling! But will be wonderful to get into proper summer clothes.
ReplyDeleteMind you, you could always come home, the weather here is fab-fa-fa-freeeezing...
Excellent choice! I've been following Henrietta since she started and think she's fab :-)
