LRHS: March 2015
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 03, 2015. They say. Not me. Snow Sand. Snow melts. Sand never ever goes away. Plus, it's hot at the beach. I'll take the snow any day. And as you can see below, we've had a fair amount of it lately. We've been doing lots of wintry things. I took the Girl Scouts ice skating one day. It was a blast. I was the only adult to skate! All the other moms sat on the bleachers. I don't know why. Skating was so much fun! While Kev was gone, we had some Mommy and Daphne style chili. On one of the rece...

LRHS: March 2014
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 28, 2014. Yo Yo Mommy, April 2008. Oh my gosh look at Daphne's cheeks! She was so dang cute. On Monday, I went to a Sip-n-Sew (and Knit) at the Bean Bar. I started a project with linen yarn on tiny needles, and learned to do "double knitting." Eventually, this will become a lavender sachet pouch. Double knitting is pretty amazing. I don't know how anybody ever came up with it. On Tuesday, it snowed. Again. And I made a really good sandwich. She made a face zipper pouch. I love it. On Thursd...

LRHS: October 2013
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 31, 2013. Carved the pumpkin and harvested the seeds. Did some knitting. Cleaned the house. Made Daphne a spy badge. Bring on the candy. Tuesday, October 29, 2013. I have some catching up to do! I can't help it. I've been sick. But let's go back a bit. Twas the night before Rhinebeck, and we tried our beer! It wasn't quite officially ready, but since I was about to go out of town and all, we tried it anyway. And it was really REALLY good! And look how pretty it is, too! And lots of this:.

LRHS: Summer - The Good
http://housepants.blogspot.com/2015/07/summer-good.html
Wednesday, July 15, 2015. Summer - The Good. So, in spite of the situation with the lice, summer hasn't been ALL bad. We harvested Murphy the cabbage, and donated him to the local food pantry. Sour cherries appeared at the farmers market, and so there was delicious sour cherry pie. Daphne and I took a road trip to Indiana, which was lots of fun. We went blueberry picking at my favorite blueberry picking place. Blueberries are the best thing about summer. Daphne started drum lessons. She's good! So, summe...

mindsquirt: being a homeowner is FUN!
http://mindsquirt.blogspot.com/2005/09/being-homeowner-is-fun.html
Sunday, September 25, 2005. Being a homeowner is FUN! In an attempt to make my lawn as plush and full of life as my neighbor's yards, I fertilized my yard. I mean, I over-fertilized my yard. Not knowing that there was such thing as over-fertilizing , I used up what I had left of a bottle. It turns out that I used about 2 times the amount I should have, during the first drought of the year. (around march) My grass died within two days. Please see the pictures below:. Here is the right side:. While I did t...

mindsquirt: The Diarrhea Excuse
http://mindsquirt.blogspot.com/2005/09/diarrhea-excuse.html
Thursday, September 29, 2005. Due to popular demand, I am releasing the story of the diarrhea excuse. some or most of you all have already seen this in email form:. I did something I thought was pretty entertaining Wednesday. I decided to use it Wednesday when I got a ticket on campus. I was just going in and out of a building to get a floppy disk, and I evidently parked in a fire lane, and when I came back, there was two, Yes! Appeal to campus parking:. At the time, I had no idea that I was subjecting m...

mindsquirt: Visit to the Robo-psychotherapist 2
http://mindsquirt.blogspot.com/2006/08/visit-to-robo-psychotherapist-2.html
Tuesday, August 01, 2006. Visit to the Robo-psychotherapist 2. I am in a slump at work. I am pretty bored here for the most part. The job is challenging, and I am learning a fair amount of useful stuff, and the pay and benefits are decent, but it is not quick-pace enough for me. Anyway, I decided to go to the Robo-psychotherapist to vent my frustration. This time, I knew what to expect. Not like last time. If you haven't read about my first visit, visit that link). I find this job incredibly boring.

mindsquirt: Halloween at foo's house
http://mindsquirt.blogspot.com/2005/10/halloween-at-foos-house.html
Monday, October 31, 2005. Halloween at foo's house. Friends, family, schoolThese were all just obstacles in the way of getting more candy. There was one kid with a ghostly clown costume on. It was a bedsheet and rainbow afro-wig. Man, what a lame-o. Maybe she was supposed to be the ghost of that 3:16 guy. I accidentally made fun of some junior-high aged kid for having a pillowcase for their candy bag. I just said OhPillowcase! In a fake-impressed tone. I didn't mean to, it just happened. That same year m...

mindsquirt: cereal is hardly ever this fun
http://mindsquirt.blogspot.com/2005/10/cereal-is-hardly-ever-this-fun.html
Thursday, October 06, 2005. Cereal is hardly ever this fun. I don’t know how familiar some of you are with any Richard Prior movies, but the common theme that I can remember is that Richard Prior was always acting scared all the time. Usually something bad would go down, and he would get scared, and it was funny to see him run around and go apeshit. I was in the cereal aisle and I saw a box of trix with the trix rabbit casting his loving gaze on the trix that are always just out of reach. I don't think t...

mindsquirt: mystery
http://mindsquirt.blogspot.com/2011/04/mystery.html
Monday, April 11, 2011. I replaced one of my toilet bowls over the weekend. I put the used one by the curb for the trash man. Around midnight last night, under the cover of darkness, my neighbor 2 houses down drove his pick-up over and took the toilet. Before the morning (but well after midnight), he put his old toilet in front of my house, in the same spot. Posted by fooiemcgoo : 6:17 PM. I told him to do it. Was your old toilet more magestic than his old toilet? Sniffyton, Alaska, United States.
