Welcome! I'm Mary and this is My Life in Scotland. I moved to Scotland in February 2008. Aberdeen, Scotland is now my home and I love it. This blog began as a way to keep my family and friends updated from so far away.
I am learning that things don't always go as planned and I should stop being surprised by that.
Thanks for reading!
