These are my blognames for family and friends, i.e., my beloved cast of characters. 

De-code at will, per the following:

Sissy B = my younger sister, closest in age to me.  She’s married with two daughters and lives in Colorado.

Wee C = my youngest sister, seven years younger than me.  She’s married and lives in Southern California.

Bidie-in = oh, the guy who lives with me.  He’s from Scotland.

Squeezer = Bidie’s daughter; my friend, my partner in crafty crime, but now that she’s a teenager, sometimes this is a nerdy secret.

Renaldo = Squeezer’s brother, off to college now, sending fabulous updates via text, and taking me dancing when I visit.

Meems = my step-mom, who makes my Dad a very happy man in Tennessee.

Dad = Dad, the one and only.

AJ = my mother’s sister, my beloved auntie, who lives in Arizona.

Penn = my other lovely and talented auntie, also in Arizona.

Maizy = my first niece, Sissy B’s daughter, who was born in 2005.

E-dot = Maizy’s little sister, who was born in 2007.

Lish = BFF, from the Midwest like me, but now in Northern California, like me.

Kimlee = the belle of Richmond, whose son Q received a Trapezoid Blanket from me.

Kymber = the big sister I never had, but now pretend I do.  She lives in Holland with J and their son and daughter, Little J and Little K, respectively.

Mr. J = Kymber’s husband, a.k.a. my pseudo-brother-in-law who speaks with an English accent.
