As you might have seen on Wednesday, there’s a new game brewing at the Snake Den. Scrabble, of course.
Continue reading “That Smile…”Scrabble Game to Start 2023
It’s time to play a game… And guess what? It’s Snake’s favorite type of game.
[Snake, squeezing eyes shut: please don’t say scrabble, please don’t say scrabble, please don’t say scrabble…]
<the voice inserts “It isn’t his favorite type. He hates it in fact.>

We did manage to sneak away for a date night during our trip to WDW with family. It was the first time Snake had seen Galaxy’s Edge in Florida or California. I’d been there just before the shutdown in November 2019 and couldn’t wait to share it with him.

There’s something about a pair of gloves…
Continue reading “All Dressed Up”The Goal: Simplify
Coming off of a very complicated year and two worldwide years that changed our view of just about everything, it’s time for less.
Continue reading “The Goal: Simplify”R is for Ringing in the New Year
2022 is in the past and 2023 is just starting. What better way to start the new year than with a little lingerie and tease?
Continue reading “R is for Ringing in the New Year”W is for Wicked Wednesday
While it is not Wednesday, this is my last chance to post for Wicked Wednesday. I want to thank Marie for bringing together a community of wonderful people I respect and love.
Continue reading “W is for Wicked Wednesday”W is for Wreath
“That’s the one!” she gasped as she pointed at a large wreath. They were shopping for their first holiday together in their new place and basically had nothing.
Continue reading “W is for Wreath”D is for Decorations
My favorite part of Christmas? Besides, being with Snake, of course…
Continue reading “D is for Decorations”W is for Winter
Unlike most of the world, we tend to love snow when we get it in Tucson. Cold weather tends to bring out the grumpiness in most people here because they moved here to avoid that.
Continue reading “W is for Winter”I is for Irish Pub
As this is published Snake and I are at Walt Disney World with family for the holidays. Last night, our first night here, we ate at our traditional first-night place. (Yes, we have been often enough to have that.)
Continue reading “I is for Irish Pub”O is for Ornament
He came out to her taking a photograph of the tree. It wouldn’t have been that unusual except she still hadn’t put clothes on yet. As he walked behind her, he noticed that he could see their reflection in one of the tree ornaments.
Continue reading “O is for Ornament”B is for Bright (Lights, That is)
When we pull the lights out for the Christmas tree, we always have to unravel them a bit, stretch them out and plug them in. Make sure they work, you know.
Continue reading “B is for Bright (Lights, That is)”E is for Experience
As I write this, we are in the process of getting ready to head out of town on Saturday. We are going to spend Christmas with our family in WDW.
Continue reading “E is for Experience”L is for Lighting
Getting festive for the holidays means lights. And taking a few silly pictures at the same time.
Continue reading “L is for Lighting”R is for Rope
As we walked along the rocky shoreline, the sun was dipping behind the clouds. A storm had blown through earlier and it looked like a spectacular sunset was imminent.
Continue reading “R is for Rope”M is for (Getting in the ) Mood
The tree is up, all orders have been placed and it’s time to enjoy the season. And a festive hat is exactly what I need, right?
Continue reading “M is for (Getting in the ) Mood”M is for Musing
It’s that time of year when it seems like people tend to look at the past and try to figure out where they want to go next.
Continue reading “M is for Musing”R is for (FL) Relationship
It seems like so many posts on FLRs focus on reasons and mechanics instead of the relationship piece.
Continue reading “R is for (FL) Relationship”W is for Weekend
It was a busy weekend in the Snake Den. First, we had our second performance in less than a month. Then we went to a concert by our favorite Christmas tradition band. It was a lot, but so much fun!
Continue reading “W is for Weekend”R is for Results
If you remember, we started November with a new game. He needed to get a hand that beat mine in poker in order to earn two O’s. Or pay the price.
Continue reading “R is for Results”C is Contrasts
I love the contrast between the steel of his cage and the softness of the blanket…
Continue reading “C is Contrasts”D is for December Prompt
Wow… the end of the year. It’s been another crazy one. As we’ve all started to wrap our heads around new norms, it seems like nothing is more constant than change.
Continue reading “D is for December Prompt”T is for Things
In the 80s, the quote going around was “He who dies with the most toys wins.” It was a time of new gadgets and toys along with the idea that these things were “necessary”.
Continue reading “T is for Things”T is for Tomorrow
She sat back and patted her stomach. “That was amazing, honey. I love when you cook for me.” Finishing the last sip of wine in her glass, she stood up.
