February 2022

 Hello everyone!

I posted December and January photos but am not sure that the blog posts were emailed everywhere they were supposed to go.  While December was fun because of family time, December and January were two of the worst months for me at work.  Many 14-hour days, weekends and holidays.  I went past burned out and almost ceased to function well.  And then when it was at its worst, my Mom passed away.  It has been an emotional start to the new year, but I still want to share our joys through this blog, even if much of what I'll share in February is just dog photos :)

David and I went to Chicago for my birthday.  I bought the tickets to the "Smartless" podcast live show months ago.  The event happened to be on my birthday, so I was excited for a short getaway with David.  Given that Mama's service was a few days prior, I was not sure we would make it, but we did.  And it was a nice break from all the stress and sadness.





For those not familiar with "Smartless", it's hosted by tv and movie actors Will Arnett, Sean Hayes, and Jason Bateman.

Their guests for the Chicago live show were Andy Richter (from the Conan O'Brien show) and Jeff Tweady from Wilco.


Speaking of my birthday, Shelly and family got me these adorable pajama bottoms with Bailey's and Remy's faces on them!  I love them!



John and Ginger had us over for a night with an Italian chef on Zoom.  We made chicken parmesan and it was amazing!




Violet hosted ladies from our Wine Club for Galentine's Day at Upland Brewery.  It was a really fun afternoon with friends.



Speaking of Violet, we saw the Broadway Show "Come From Away" in Louisville last month.  It's outstanding.  If you haven't seen it yet, I hope it comes your way soon.



And a few dog photos to finish out our month.  





Looking forward to spring which hasn't reached us yet in Indiana.  Thankful to all of you who have been so kind during this really hard time for our family.
