"You're 36," she replied. She was right! I can't keep up either.

Also a purple pool table! <br /><br />When he first moved in, even though he was single and had no prospects for that changing, when I looked at that room, I thought of the bar and the pool table being covered and the room being used as a child's playroom. Slowly, this is happening. YAY!<br /><br />I am considering stockpiling. Even though I think I should have done it before . There are predictions of out of control inflation in our future.

It smelled weird down there. <br /><br />My Mom was a teenager in post war Germany, and she is the queen of stockpiles. She still believes toilet paper may be rationed at any time.<br />I got my stockpiling habit from her!Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09496172669599418214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915568910466832849.post-61960461694513083292012-01-05T07:01:35.624-06:002012-01-05T07:01:35.624-06:00Oh, the '80s.

The housemate had a bar room once with a bar made of recycled sleeper wood and flags from countries she likes (America, South Africa, Great Britain) above the bottle shelf. As well as coasters with jokes on them and large ceramic ash trays. I put up the flags of countries she hated (Russia, Cuba, Haiti) and hid the ash trays. She used to have her friends around and play Elvis, Peter Sarstedt, Neil Diamond.<br /><br />Long live the end of the bar room!Mary LAhttp://louisey.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
