CoTT 2 House of Cards

[Sherye Story Reader]

I am going to confess something embarassing to me when I was in Junior High. I had just gotten dressed after gym class. I was wearing a dress my mom made me. Was almost late for class so I hurried getting dressed. As I was walking down the hall to my class, I kept hearing whistles, but paid no attention to them at all cause I knew they were not for me. I walked into class and a girl on my right side said, "What are all the guys whistling about?" I said that I had no idea. Another girl on my left side said, "I know what they are whistling about!" I asked her what was it! She said, "look down on your left side!" I looked and OMG, part of my dress was stuck inside my pantyhose. They could see my undies. I turned bright red and everyone started laughing at me as I pulled my dress out and covered myself. I had a hard time holding my head up going down the hall for awhile after that. In fact, I wanted to just go home and hide! Now I think it was hilarious cause if I had not been in a hurry to my next class, then I would have made sure I was decent! lol

And I bet each and everyone of think that I could probably write a story of my life of all the things I did and also what I seen my late husband do! lol

The practicing Latin wrong accidentally summoned a demon/devil.

Oh look Val summoned the devil

A lot of spells are cast in Latin and the goat is representative of the devil.  So while practicing Latin and making mistakes, the person inadvertently summoned the devil.  

Ahhh, now I understand. I guess my problem was I didn't see a goat in the doorway, just a weird bug.

Okay...

So here's my week 36 offering in my challenge to take and unload a new monochrome photograph every week for 52 weeks:

  Hide contents

 It's the concrete steps leading from my lower garden to my upper one (on the left), and also to the upper story of the old two-story stone cottage in my garden (on the right).

(Just out of interest, that window in the old cottage, that I used for last week's photograph, is about 4ft 6in (1.4 metres) to the right of this one.)

I like it. It has a sense of indulgent neglect or nature will endure with the ferns and other flora being allowed to flourish in an obviously human space.

I am so mad right now! I went to Walmart to get a few groceries, plus Christmas bags to put my sister's, brother's, my nephew's, my niece in law's and their new baby girl, Hadley's presents in. Plus dogfood, dog treats for my dog and dogfood for my stepson and his wife's friend's dog. Plus I got my stepson and his wife's kitten a toy. I got home and the toy was nowhere in site. I checked my ticket and it was not seen on there. I remember putting it on the conveyor belt. Now the kitten has no Christmas toy! Boo Hoo!

Make the kitten a ball of string and it will be happy.

Time eases the embarassment ... uhm, good thing your momma told you to wear clean panties in case of an accident. Little did she know what sort of accident.

I noticed no one asked how fluent Val's Latin is.

 Mum and I made cutout cookies yesterday. We use a recipe that came from my step-grandmother. We suspect it's well over a 100 years old likely 200 and came with the family from Ireland as the recipe is titled "Biscuits" in her hand written version.

It’s been a nice relaxing day... I can’t quite believe it’s almost the end of the year...

Thanks to the internet I am now an expert on the genetics of the taste of Brussel sprouts. Apparently 30% of the population can’t taste the bitter compound found in them.
