Yarn and Advocacy 1st July - Food Tips for Surviving the Wilderness posted by Gianna Chan So, I know that I tend to write about homemaking in general, but I thought that I'd change things up a bit this week by getting some sunshine and doing a little camping. I'm really in awe of people who have th...

@MariJoJo Owtch. The old connexions with the antenna can really hurt!

Gianna's readership currently sits at about 1,500 readers, mostly young homemakers and political leftists. None of her readers knew why @realandrearaymer was appended to the start of what is otherwise a rather whimsical anecdote. Most decided that it was an uncorrected typo. Gianna Chan @giannahomem...

((Sorry, I didn't notice this was still ongoing! Sorry!)) Meredith groaned, rolled over onto her back. She was somewhat aware of the crowd around her. She was also painfully aware of Cisco's yelling something dramatic. The whiny over-dramatic manner that Cisco had and her embarrassment over such a f...

Meredith hadn't noticed the ball flying towards her. If she did, she might have moved a little. As it was, she lobbed the ball in her hands directly at her target - the last remaining girl on Jason's team. The two balls collided in mid-air, sending one flying towards Craig and the other skittering a...

It seemed that Meredith was in her element... or at least as close to her element as she could possibly be. She hadn't even really budged from the place where she was standing. Every time a ball came flying at her head, she either picked it out of the air, or neatly sidestepped it. Meredith's state ...

Meredith stood stock still, watching as the the dodge balls got thrown at various targets around her. Lost in her thoughts, she hardly even flinched when Harold was called out. Meredith hardly ever showed off her circus skills. They were really just a way for her to become something special. She und...

As usual, Marion looked incredibly disinterested in what everyone else had to say and especially disinterested in what people in positions of authority had to say. Since Harold was currently being "the man", Marion's ire was currently focused on him. The girl sighed loudly and shrugged, &q...

"Hey you, get on my team!" Meredith startled a little. She'd been staring at the floor, her hair over her face when she was called to join Harold's team. Slowly, she dragged her eyes from the floor and looked at him. "Yeah, sure. Whatever." she droned. She shrugged, rolling her ...

As with all things, Meredith treated gym class as if it were the bane of her existence. She hadn't even really bothered to change into clothing suitable for the class, still wearing her heeled boots, pleather cuffs and red latex trenchcoat. She leaned against the back wall of the gym, watching the r...

Sarah sat stock still, watching the water slosh about inside the burette as she cleaned it. Will and Marion had already left. She had waved at them. Suddenly remembering herself, she put the burette on the drainage rack, packed her things and exited the class. She hesitated as she picked up the spar...

"You guys okay to clean up the rest of the equipment?" Marion asked. Sarah nodded dumbly at her partner, the overwhelming presence of William making her a little more than tongue-tied. It was a complete change from her comfortable (albeit slightly shy) demeanor toward him at the beginning ...

Now that she was in closer proximity to William, Sarah's shyness began to kick in, especially after he turned to look at her more directly. She nodded to him, her mouth sewn shut by embarrassment, then watched as he took a step back. Almost instantly, she was right in front of the burette, one hand ...

Sarah flashed William one of her famous apologetically friendly grins. "Twenty point three, huh?" she asked, "I din know we messed up the first one. So, uh, this is the guesstimate, then. I guess we have three or four more to go? Sorry. I'll help with one after I explain these to Mari...

Sarah grinned another of her manic grins, then looked over her work. "Uh. Average is here. Then this goes here, then this goes here and then here and then here. Then this goes here and we round it up to 3 sig fig. Then this goes here." she said quickly, pointing at various spots on the pag...
