When people say "in just under the wire" means that someone did something at the last minute or moment, or something happened at last minute, for example:
" - I'm sorry , i didn't hear my alarm.
- So that's why you came in just under the wire? "
When you "put your own spin on something" , you give it your personality or you customize it.
for example
Teacher - Well students , for today's class we're going to bake cookies, the school will give you guys all the basic ingredients.
Student 1 - Ohh, i really love baking cookies, i'll put my own spin on it.
A spacey person acts distracted and sometimes a bit strange
Person 1 Hey bro look at there, it's Pedro
Person 2 Oh right!, but wait, what is he doing?
Peron 1 I don't know i think he's looking out the window , he's always been like this. a spacey person.
