What the Boss Likes – we got really cool upholstered chairs!

As the title says, we got really cool upholstered chairs.   Some background on this,  my husband's parents once did upholstery.  And when my mother in law was dying from colon cancer, she asked what we would like.  We got a pair of decrepit chairs that my husband loved because they were so comfortable, and a … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – we got really cool upholstered chairs!

From the Bar and Kitchen – grilled chicken, shrimp, beer, and random kibitzing

Hello! Finally getting a chance to catch up on posts about food, alcohol and other things. I do get wrapped up in commenting on other blogs and sadly neglect my own. Current blog commenting is with a Catholic, Joe, which has been interesting, especially when I have asked him if he would obey a Christian … Continue reading From the Bar and Kitchen – grilled chicken, shrimp, beer, and random kibitzing

I’ve read that … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Euthanasia, atheists in “foxholes” and my cat

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – How silly the Qu’ran is and a bonus photo of my cat

It seems like Mr. Rogers isn't coming back, though I do hope that isn't the case.  This is unsuprising.  The usual scenario is that the TrueChristiantm will convince himself that I didn't "really" want to discuss Christianity and he'll tell himself that I wasn't honest.  That's a real two-fer in lying.     First a cute … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – How silly the Qu’ran is and a bonus photo of my cat

What the Boss Likes – the cats part 1

In the interest of keeping the tubes full of cats, here are 2 of mine and my husbands.  The others will be coming, it's rather hard to photograph black cats and one cranky one.  We also have a ferret, Loki, which is even *harder* to photograph. We have 5 total: Grendel, Luna, Mystra (all siblings), Mordred and Muffin.  … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – the cats part 1
