Austanspace: The Flat End of the Year
http://austanspace.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-flat-end-of-year.html
Reality is apparently offensive. Tuesday, December 30, 2014. The Flat End of the Year. Maybe I'll get Billy to decorate and take the opportunity to help him weed out all the mountains of Xmas stuff Mac had bought and stored over the years, and maybe even go into the city or have people over to his house. We'll see. So here's to us and 2015. Let's make it unforgettable. Cheers! I hope your year to come is full of love and laughter and that the good outweighs (by a huge margin) the bad. I hope you do have ...

Austanspace: Blitzlebahs and Waazzlewahs
http://austanspace.blogspot.com/2014/12/blitzlebahs-and-waazzlewahs.html
Reality is apparently offensive. Thursday, December 11, 2014. It's Christmastime. Haul out the holly! It's a longer process; the decorating I used to do in 2 days now takes at least a week, but slowing down has its benefits. Today was a challenge. Hanging garland was at the end of to-dos, and when I reached up, my arm and hand shook like I was 99 years old. That wigged me out a bit. And I couldn't stop it, either. I hate when that happens. Woohoo, bring on the holidays! I hope your debauchery is blissful.

http://skippymom.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Just a Skippy kind of Girl Living in a Loopy kind of World. Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Sometimes I look at the food in my fridge and whine [to myself, like a 4 year old] "But I don't want to make that! Meaning the dish I had planned when I bought that meat, cheese or veggie. I have a heckuva' lot of fresh veggies from my beloved FIL's garden. And? I don't want to make that. Whatever that may be. heehee. I decided to make the saute and use that in lieu of the spinach and white sauce I use in the spinach one.

I Make Soap: Frick and Frack
http://skippymom.blogspot.com/2015/05/frick-and-frack.html
Just a Skippy kind of Girl Living in a Loopy kind of World. Thursday, May 28, 2015. As my mom used to say. It's what she called my brother and me when we used to get into mischief. Well y'all know me. I am a big dog kind of girl. Dachshunds are the exception, hence Spot the Dot, but my preference is to have big dogs. My favorite breed is the Chesapeake Bay Retriever. And that explains my little pony, Scoobers and his predecessor, my beloved Rudy. And he is a kick! Was a good fit. They gave us Bentley...

Saturday, February 14, 2015. Missing Jones and Y2K. When I was a boy of fifty,. Jones the cat would find. My lap wherever I sat and. Share his habitual nap -. His posture toward existence. And, at his insistence,. I too would slip consciousness. We were friends, I guess. February 15, 2015 at 11:54 AM. Arent you thankful he insisted on those naps? February 15, 2015 at 1:27 PM. Naps were a way of life with Jones, Emma. He was easy to be around. February 15, 2015 at 4:44 PM. I can see that you were friends.
