Born and raised in Scotland, I decided to give west coast America a shot for six months. Eight-and-a-half years later, I’m still here but with a lot more baggage than I arrived with.
I’m married to an American (he won) and have two boys; one who doesn’t eat and the other who doesn’t sleep. We moved states to Montana almost 2 years ago, and are finally beginning to feel at home here, in spite of ourselves. Living the country life after being around the city since year dot was a huge adjustment — except for our 4-year-old who took it in his strong-willed, pee-pee holding stride; the other one (a year old) was still incubating at the time.
I enjoy music, the arts, reading dictionaries, drawing and painting and living next to a water mass. I’m a true INFJ, sensitive, sarcastic and usually sleep deprived.
My blog is generally loaded with self-depreciating humour and smeared with a good helping of sarcasm. Come for the accent. Stay for the sarcasm.

I love your new “home” here. I’ve been thinking about doing something similar, and getting away from ’spaces’. You are encouraging me. Thanks for the ‘heads-up’.

The new masthead is very cool. And the new site seems nice enough, but where is the RSS feed????
I want to subscribe to you, my dear.

Thanks for the beautiful pics. I love Scotland forever too. Scotland’s loss of you is our (USA’s) gain.
