Introducing child labour to meet deadlines

Posted by: fracas on January 21 @ 10:20 am

After 36 hours of not blogging – I’M BACK!! But don’t expect a fresh rose, posing in front of the mirror tho show off her Karen Millen dress or Dior pumps. Today I’m in bed, after a quick wash and go session (and in this case I’m only talking about my face). Luckily I’m working [...]

Nevile R.I.P.

Posted by: fracas on January 12 @ 1:11 pm

I was in a meeting when the phone went off. It was Victoria, but as I was in the middle of a conversation, I turned off the phone. 2 minutes later a colleague comes up with the land line phone. A man, whose voice I vaguely recognise, claims to work for the tax authorities and [...]

French Manicure

Posted by: fracas on September 16 @ 9:02 pm

As work wasn’t an option I took the day off to spend time with Victoria, Reinout and Sebastian. Victoria and I passed by a newly opened nail studio - MH Nail Studio. I couldn’t resist getting a French manicure and Victoria got her nails done too. The result was splendid, and the price good too! [...]

Weekend Newsflash

Posted by: fracas on August 30 @ 9:14 pm

Some weekends are good. Others are just excellent! This weekend certainly belonged to the latter. It’s been so realxing, no work, pleanty of sleep and just spending time with the family. What more can a girl ask for?

In the spirit of a blissful weekend I decided to get some bathbombs at Lush
for a relaxing [...]

Hunt for Easter decoration

Posted by: fracas on April 8 @ 3:10 pm

Finally home after a wet and cold walk through town. Victoria and I have been on the hunt for Easter decoration but to our dismay most of it was already gone. In the end we managed to salvage some odd coloured left overs for our Easter tree which will be decorated tonight.  Highlight of the [...]

Expect the unexpected

Posted by: fracas on March 24 @ 5:33 pm

When you think you have everything under control, you realise soon enough you don’t. It’s what they call Murphy’s Law -  in other words, everything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
As I was submitting my morning blog entry and was just about to get on with some work I got a call from [...]

Typical teenage behaviour?

Posted by: fracas on March 17 @ 7:35 pm

I am suppose to work on my project and instead I find myself in the midst of a family feud. It starts off with warning bells. Where is Victoria? It is 4 pm and still no sight of my little girl. I call her little although she will be turning 11 in less than two [...]

Pampering and girly evening

Posted by: fracas on March 16 @ 6:09 pm

Today has been somewhat of a pampering day for me. First gym, then an hours mid-day sleep (which is a first!) followed by an appointment for deep tissue massage for legs, butt and stomach at Nouvelle Cosmetique. It’s called LPG or Endermologie. The results are suppose to be fantastic for cellulites,  slimming and toning, which [...]

I’m exploding!

Posted by: fracas on February 25 @ 4:26 pm

My hormones are playing games with me. Although I slept, with interruptions, for 7 hours, I till feel exhausted. By 1 o ‘clock Victoria came home. She suggested us going to the Bagel Bar. I had earlier agreed to making Wednesday afternoons our day. A day for lunching and shopping in town. But with a [...]

Because I’m Swedish!

Posted by: fracas on February 3 @ 9:46 am

Life in our family started just like any other typical Tuesday morning. Victoria came in to wake up Reinout. Her bike is broken and even though this has been a fact for a few days now, we still haven’t got around to take it to the repair shop. Perhaps because the last time the owner [...]
