Blue-Collar Heroine

 The days are ticking past and in a matter of hours, now, we'll be packed and on the road, leaving 

Washington for good.

So given the circumstances, I did the logical thing, and bought a Barcelona chair.

And here it is, prior to my purchasing of same.  

I have wanted this chair forever. And even though I know that I am now the kind of person who owns a Barcelona chair, I refuse to feel anything but unbridled GLEE because 1. It's a Barcelona chair and 2. I GOT IT AT LYNDEN CHRISTIAN THRIFT STORE FOR 95.00 BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE:
Well of course it's a knockoff. I got it for 95 bucks at Lynden Christian.

Movin' on down to Idy Hoe

We did it!  We found the perfect place! 

It was amazing. The places available for us in Idaho, we never could have set foot in here in Washington. We saw luxurious! Luxurious!! places - newly built, newly remodeled, several in renovated Victorian buildings with exposed brickwork and marble counters and deluxe appliances...honestly, if it's getting too expensive for you wherever you are, you could do a lot worse than the Idaho Panhandle region. 

Now us, we are intrepid trendsetters. Not for us conventional luxury. We went for the remodeled 1920's lawyers office in the funky little brewpub-area of

Yes, John, FRUITLAND.

And this is it:



                        Fine. This is the front door. But yes, the front door is screamin' titty pink.   
We are right in the historic downtown, one block down from the trendy brewpub, around the corner from the tattoo parlor, and next door to the Toy museum.  When we get moved in, I'll post up more pictures. This is the only one that I took that didn't come out completely shitty.

Folks, this just might work out fine.
Holy shit.

Aye d'Haoe

HOLY SHIT PEOPLE WE ARE IN IDAHO AND IT IS 

   ANOTHER FUCKING PLANET    

I am not even kidding. I have never been any place like this.  People have been responding to us based on our looks (elderly, white) and have been saying some of the most amazing things...

As for me?  Not a single shit, piss, cunt, fuck, cocksucker, motherfucker or tits have I spoken. Not even a damn, a shucks or an 'oh boogers'.

Have you ever seen any of those Mormon Expose' shows, where they have the immense houses on closed compounds, and their own bank and shit?  It's here. That shit is real.  We have seen some of the most virulent anti-woke propaganda signs, and stickers, and entire houses decorated in American and Trump flags, and  HOLY SHIT PEOPLE.

The TV stations here are, how do I describe this. OK. Home Decor, QVC, Religion, Religion, Adventure ( shows featuring cops, bikers, truckers, game wardens, firefighters - sounds like one of Peenee's magazines, doesn't it?) Western, Vintage (literally right now playing Ozzie and Harriet) Fox News, Real Estate TV-all listings that scroll slowly by - and one other one I forgot. I mean yeah we're in a motel right now and cable is all they have, but HOLY SHIT PEOPLE.  Oh I remembered - Law Enforcement TV, which is all cops chases, cop arrests, cop beatdowns, cop crashes, fatal crashes, fatal chases, rousting drunks, jacking up poor people and questioning sessions. 

HOLY SHIT PEOPLE.

But we have seen two fantastic apartments already!

Both of them are in remodeled historic buildings in the downtown of Fruitland. We'd be right down the street from the brewpub, the tattoo parlor and the funky resale places.  I've done the research on both, and they're not too good to be true - we just happen to be able to afford them. Just as we are able to afford all kinds of places here, for at least a thousand dollars less than we're paying now. WITHOUT getting our retirement income taxed! 

So golly gee whiz, folks, we gonna be living in the light of Jesus here in Idyhoe.
