Hello Everyone

Yeah it's Friday!!!!  It was a pretty good week though. 

Yesterday I had a nice long walk in the forest preserve.  There is a short walk for 5.5 miles and a long walk for 13 miles.  I took the shorter walk but I think one of these days when I don't have any plans for dinner (meaning I don't have to make dinner) I want to take the longer walk.  It will be nice and refreshing. 

Today after work I am going into the city and seeing some kind of Shakespeare improv theater.  We are going to place called The Half Shell for dinner first.  That's it for me.  Tomorrow I will be at the air water show in Chicago.  I will be at some place that has VIP seating so I don't have to mingle with the common folk...hahaha.  So that is my next two days in a nut shell. 

I agree with Lisa.  I really did over pack for the hospital.  I stayed over night and I didn't need much of anything I brought because they provided everything.  And I didn't read or mess with a laptop because I was too busy walking the halls and when I wasn't doing that I was in a daze because I just had surgery.  I didn't feel much like reading or messing with a laptop.  I was resting up for the next hallway lap.  I mean you don't sleep well in the hospital because they wake you up every hour for stuff.  So you are constanly trying to catch a nap.  If I did it again I just would bring my phone, my robe and return clothes and toiletries.  Nothing else.

Anyways...back to work all.  Have a good day. 

TGIF,

I am off to run errands too.

We seen the kids production of Seussical Jr. last night. It is always a treat to watch so many talented kids preforming. Next month it will be Dial M for Murder.

Tonight is the David Cook concert.  I as so happy that Hubert will go with me to all these things. We have season tickets to Englelane Community Players, ans also to the Starve Rock Area Concert Series. For a bit over $300 a year, we can go to 6 plays and 5 concerts. That breaks down to about $27 a person per show. Ya can't get that in the Chicago area.

Jessica, FYI, don't overpack to go to hospital. Just take your Ipod or laptop, a book, and personal care products. And your phone. Anything else you need will be provided. Good Luck, and we will be thinking og you.

Hugs,

Hi everyone!

We went out to breakfast to visit a favorite waitress but she wasn't working today Oh well. Now we are at the store early doing all the little things that are necessary. Tonight we'll go out to dinner. we have been pretty good about not calling for take out after work but actually cooking. Last night I made roasted okra (spray with olive oil and garlic salt and roast at 400 for 15 min) Yummy, easy, fast and not fried.

Happy Friday!

Connie

Carla- I hope he's ok.  Sending good vibes your way

Happy Thursday,

Crystal, you are right! My to do list will get done, eventually. The only bad thing is there is always something new to add.

Not to much going on today, we are going to the community players play tonight. An easy supper is planned, but not sure what it is going to be, yet.

Bad dream last night. I dreamed that I was going back to work, on the first day, and none of our supplies had been delivered. I know better, since we got them in July, but it was scary to think of it happening.

Everyone, have a great day.

Hugs,
