Hello subscribers to The Nuthouse News. I appreciate that you're reading this! For 16 years, I have published The Kriss News every year at Christmas time. Well, now I am going to try to keep readers up-to-date throughout the year. I am hoping this turns into a writing job! So, everyone except Lisa and Eric Black, PLEASE ADD YOUR COMMENTS AT THE END OF THIS.(Lisa and Eric, kindly write your comments on some paper and toss them in the nearest trash receptacle.) Don't know Lisa and Eric? Just be glad you never met them!
This blog features delightful nuts such as Grandma Abbie (my mom), Amy (That's me.), Kerry and Julia (my daughters who are 23 and 9), Uncle Bob (my brother), and his daughter Danielle (almost 14). We all live together in a cozy nuthouse in Monroeville, PA, along with our ridiculous and lazy dog, Peaches, and a decrepit 17-year-old calico cat named Wolfie. (Abbie's baby.)
Peaches is a vicious, killer watchdog, protecting us from all the scum and vermin of the neighborhood. (That spunky peek-a-poo up the street is nothing but trouble, to say nothing of that shady grandmother who walks her little chihuahua. Peaches is our life saver, warning us whenever something or somebody moves on HER street.)
Kerry is currently at a nursing home working on her externship. No one really knows what an externship is. We all know what interns do, like at the White House and all, but what do externs do? It's all a big mystery.
How about those STEELERS??!!!! Pittsburgh people are very proud of our football team and I am a Pittsburgh people. My mother, Kerry, Julia and I went to Liam's house in Cranberry to watch "the boys." (My mother likes to call groups of males "the boys.") The next morning many of the local schools had a two-hour Super Bowl delay. Our children have had many snow days and snow delays, but this was a brand new one. A late football game delay. Apparently, someone in charge of decisions for Julia's school district, Gateway, didn't believe in the delay. He or she must have been a sad and sorry Cardinals' fan. Too bad. hee hee hee
So here's a start to my new blog. Let us all bow our heads and pray that I can figure this out.

Hello, I like your blog. I'm not up to that level, as I am re-taking a basic "Hooked on Phonics" course at the University of Monroeville. Best wishes on launching your writing career.
ReplyDeleteI have heard from three people who tried to post a comment, but couldn't for some reason. I will try to figure out why some readers are having trouble.
ReplyDeleteIt would be easier, if readers would setup a Google account. That way they could select Google as their profile, and be able to post comments on your blog. I was able to do it, and I failed my first "Hooked on Phonics" course.
ReplyDeletei love your writing style! :)
