Mama doma

Because I live in the tundra, my winter coat looks a lot like this:

I noticed looking at my shadow today that being 10 months pregnant and wearing that coat (which I can't zip up) makes me look like a Matrioshka doll. Like the large one here:

Except with movable arms.

by the way, did you purposely name this post "mama doma"? meaning "mom's at home" in Russian.

Yes, yes I did do that on purpose. :) (it's the one thing in Russian that Bullinger ever learned)

I totally remember when she was taking that course in college. Wasn't it a telecommuting one? I remember her book being so outdated with "dad's at work" and "mom's at home" and really horribly drawn pictures.

My russian book had great phrases like "He works in a factory. he's a mechanic." That's pretty much all I remember how to say.

The thing I remember about Bullinger's distance learning class is when she "accidentally" destroyed the TV.
