The Current Spanko
Now that I have finished telling you about what happened with the Spanko family last year, I thought it might be thoughtful of me to bring you up to date with what has happened this year.
Angela: My lovely wife has taken a part-time job helping local schools develop web sites. She has developed software that is colorful and easy to use so that elementary school students can create pages for their class, allowing them to do things like scan art projects and write articles. She sets up a site for the school, then the teachers and students can make unique pages for their class. She even sets it up so that the school principal can instantly post messages like school closings without having to know how to program. So far, I think she spent about 500 hours working on the software and the sites, and has earned about seven dollars.
Maribel: My eldest daughter was home from Israel for a month. She was not home because of the recent violence in that part of the world. Instead, her basketball league pauses for a month or so for the holidays and so that select players can participate in the EuroCup basketball tournament. The EuroCup and EuroChampionship tournaments are big deals across the pond. She spent some time at her old school, working out and helping her old coach. She also helped her boyfriend repaint his new apartment, spent a couple of days with Bernie in The Big City, and did lots of shopping with her sister. I think I saw Maribel three times during the month. It was like old times.
Colette: My youngest is looking forward to spring so that she can play for her school softball team. I don't think she realizes that practice starts in two weeks, and their first game is scheduled for March 15, even though the snow will probably not melt until March 30. She has started to “work out” to prepare for the season. Her definition of “working out” is spending 10 minutes a day in a squatting position, since she plays catcher. Maribel has tried to get her to lift weights, ride an exercise bike, or run, but Colette says that those are not proper exercises for softball players.
Luke: We have been handling Luke's education at home since he moved in. He is very smart, but if he studies too hard or gets confused, his schizophrenia acts up and he cannot think. He loves to read, so we have him reading his text books and talking or writing about what he reads. I dislike criticizing schools in general, however if one does not think in such a way that allows one to answer questions and take tests in the fashion that schools usually use, one gets left behind in a hurry. If you put a list of questions in front of Luke and ask him to write down the answers, he will not be able to answer them. However, if you ask him to read a section and then ask him to interpret what he read, he can do so swimmingly. So we have worked with his teachers to make sure that he stays up with material at his grade level. Angela and Colette have been very creative in finding ways to have material presented to Luke so that he can learn in his way.
There can be no mistaking the fact that Colette and Luke are girlfriend and boyfriend. Having the two under the same roof is something of a challenge. Angela and I sat down with them and told them what behaviors are expected of them. At first, as we tried to set rules and Colette, in her annoying logical way, would question them. Luke just seemed confused. At last, I told them that if I caught them having anything that I thought resembled intercourse, that I would surgically remove their genitalia and reattach it to the other person. That they understood. Still, we keep a close eye on the two to make sure that they use proper decorum. Once, whilst Maribel was home, Luke asked exactly what I meant by “proper decorum,” to which Maribel replied, “it mean that he doesn't want you to fuck in his house.” Although I was taken aback by Maribel's coarse language, Luke completely understood.
Cat, the immortal cat that has has always lived on our property, has moved into the house. The temperatures have been quite cold and the weather miserable, so I assumed that Cat was seeking a warmer environment. She promptly claimed a pile of towels in the laundry room, and planted herself there like Cleopatra. When she saw Cat, Colette went to pet her, looked her over carefully, and proclaimed that Cat was with child … or rather with kitten. I explained that this was not possible because 1) cats do not generally go into an estrous cycle in January, and 2) Cat was entirely too old to have a litter. However, Colette seems to have the ability to sense those things, and Cat does seem to be getting rounder.
As for yours truly, Angela and I were able to take advantage of Colette and Maribel's shopping trips to get in a few spankings. If Luke didn't accompany them, then we would steal off to the guest house or entice Luke to go there himself, so that we could have a few moments alone. I keep a big-screen TV and some fine stereo equipment at the guest house, so it has always been easy to convince our children go play with the expensive toys in the guest house. None of the spankings were especially noteworthy, but they were comfortable and pleasant. Besides, with the cold weather that we've been suffering through, the warmth is plenty welcome, even if it is just on my backside.
Now that you have been updated, perhaps it might be time to once again regale you with tales or spankings past, or perhaps spankings present. Besides, I'm sure there will be plenty of spankings in my future, and I'm hopeful that there are many on your future, too. After all, there is nothing like a fantastic spanking.
