http://janelwashere.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 24, 2014. Two years later, here's the rotten tree video. No kidding, this has been in my drafts since November 2012. There's a lot of other stuff mouldering in there, and new stuff I haven't gotten around to posting. Oh well, it's not like self-expression is high on the list these days :-). I never did get the story from my drafts to go with it, so I'll just write it out again. He went away and I commenced worrying. And you have the stuff of horror. And I didn't have much energy. Already...

Tuesday, June 26, 2012. Our First Geocaching Find! Was a big deal. I didn't realize exactly how cool it was going to be until that THERE IT IS! 160; moment. . I thought the geocache was just another detail to add interest to a walk in the park, kind of like bringing a sandwich and cookie along would have. Nope. Whole different level of cool. . This was a true adventure, a whole Hero's Journey, with the Call to Arms, the Helper, being Lost (if not in a cave) and finally Finding the Treasure! I actually...

Friday, July 25, 2014. Therapy drawing. This is what comes out when she's "down"! Wednesday, July 23, 2014. A Parade Without Log Trucks. Whoever heard of such a thing? This isn't Shelton. This is Lakefair Parade in Olympia, and it was reasonably good, otherwise. These guys open every parade in the Northwest and are always worth watching just on their own! The street here wasn't very wide so they couldn't do their really fancy moves. A photo of girls on a float. It begins. His daughters, I take it. And th...

Monday, October 22, 2012. Just a Couple Random Funnies and Quotes. I fried my computer. yes, I knew about that fan on the video card going out. it was making noise and working intermittently, but to-do lists and priorities and motivation being what they are, the fan eventually failed. The video card overheated and blew up the motherboard. Capacitors melted. Chaos reigned. The computer guys said, "If you're going to fry your motherboard, you might as well do it right! How about some nonsense? Will Work Fo...

Monday, April 30, 2012. The Question Was, "Will I Clean the Fish". Andrea says, "You know how Daddy always talks about catching fish? How the boys are going to catch fish, and then they'll bring it to us girls, and we're going to do something with it? I said, "Yeah. I'm waiting for that moment, when I have to face the ultimate question.". Andrea said, "I'm waiting for that moment when they have to face the ultimate downer.". Sunday, April 29, 2012. New Spiral Skirt Finished. Finished, she said? 160; Mike...

Wednesday, March 28, 2012. My Blue Cheese Salad Bar. I found a pizza place near my destination and kept my hopes fixed on it like the distant star in the twilight. That was going to be the UP in the middle of the hail and the transmission. Then I picked up DH and found that although his plans did involve stopping for lunch somewhere, a pizza place wasn't what he had in mind. Have a salad bar. Then inside QFC I saw a. In the distance, but it turned out to be an. No, I did it because I wanted a salad bar.

Janel Was Here: December 2014

Monday, December 29, 2014. I Take It All Back About The Fireplace. Nothing at all on the agenda. Perfect time to mess around with my fireplace again. Only today I went at it with a different frame of mind; instead of philosophy and insecurity, I used a good old fashioned pile of cardboard, like we do when we actually want to make something burn. Which settles down to this within a few minutes. Okay, then. And it's been cooking along ever since. Tuesday, December 16, 2014. Misc August - September 2014.

Janel Was Here: December 2011
http://janelwashere.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 31, 2011. Here’s the timeline of me not getting my act together until the very last second. Hey, at least my fails are very well documented. Been spending a lot of time thinking about SCA wear, unless I want to miss Yule for lack of anything to wear. Besides clothes for everybody we need some feast gear and where to get that? Need to shop garage sales for any old-looking plates, knives and cups, and a basket to carry stuff in. Can I sew anything? That'll give it atmosphere! Last night ...

Tuesday, December 16, 2014. Misc August - September 2014. Yay for clever titles :-). By now it's going to include October and November stuff. Even though it's December. I'll post the December stuff in March, maybe. A lady spinning wool into yarn, at the Farmer's Market. I asked if I could take her picture. I want to dress like that. I want to spin bunny hair into yarn. This lady buys her fiber; I want to get the fluff right off the BUNNIES! And wash it and card it and dye it and oh yeah. There might be a...
