A Mushy Moment

It's Thanksgiving week and in our family on Thanksgiving day, before we sit down to eat, we go around the table and say what we are thankful for. I have plenty of new things on the list of what I am thankful for this year, a healthy happy baby girl certainly has a spot on there. But also for the first time this blog has made the short list.

Since my arrival in Paris three years ago it has been a struggle to find my footing and find my voice in this foreign land. Sharing my stories with all of you has been a wonderful creative outlet and reading your comments and emails has helped me feel connected.

So what I am trying to say here is thank you to you my readers! Thank you for your time, thank you for your comments, suggestions, stories, spelling corrections and all the rest. This year I am thankful for you.

..."to help you squeeze and contract you way back to a taught and muscular perineum in order to, amongst other things, get your sex life back on track so that you can produce another little French tax payer": this is a totally misleading representation. Pelvic floor training is aimed, of all things, at preventing or treating urinary incontinence and genital prolapse. I totally don't get what's so funny about either condition. I'm currently living abroad and soon to deliver, and feeling desperate that this isn't done where I am.
But I guess being true to facts isn't your thing. You just want worn-out stereotypes and cheap laughs (Gallic Shrug® )
