While I wait, I am caught up on reading goals,  it's Sabbath so I can't get ahead on chores, so I pulled out Grama's button box and started working on a crafty project.

Grama hated orange and yellow with a passion, so I was pleasantly surprised by how many buttons I found in that color family.

There is very little red and green, so anything Christmas themed will need to be white or pink, which I guess is very fitting for Grama.

I've had a bad headache all day.  It was a productive day, but I am so tired of waiting!  These non alcoholic drinks have a nice calming effect, and love that it is called a painkiller.

It's official.  My hair stylist of about 5 years is moving to Chicago.  Tonight was my last appointment with her.  I will miss our chats and the eclectic music and the sparkles.  She wrote down my color recipe, but I may be ready to go a different direction.

The hospital memorialized Renee's last heartbeat.  Very cool, what a unique keepsake to remember her with.

My Valentines boquet is growing strong.  Cut flowers make me think of Renee, who we said good-bye to today.

 It's storming outside and it has been another long day, so dinner was from nearby.  And a slice of coconut cream pie too!

02-22-25

 I was really hoping Penny would come today.  It is a good day, and also Margarita Day.  The special donut at Top Pot this day only is officially new new favorite donut.

 Fridays are for banana stands.  Like that we can see it from our apartment.

Still no baby.  We had dinner together while we wait.

02-19-25

 

Office move time.  Today I packed up, cleaned out my locker, and did some cleaning.  My new cubicle has better furniture but a worse view.

02-18-25

 

I'm officially old.

I have been cleaning my Invisalign liners with hydrogen peroxide, but today I used denture cleaner.  

That's old people sh*t.

Holiday today, woo hoo.  It was a busy day, but I did sqeeze in a mani and pedi.  The color was bright purple in the bottle, but is subtle enough that I can wear it on my fingers too.  When did these feet get so old?!?

Mom and I were able to see a play this afternoon.  It had us talking about it for days.  I was sad the Devil Went Down to Georgia song wasn't played since that was the storyline, but it was fun.

Totem Lake walk.

02-14-25

 

Celebrating Valentines Day by building my own boquet on the roof.  Arrive has some nice events.

Book club night.  Anastasia is so ready to have this baby!

02-12-25

 

New work water bottle since I shattered the old one.

02-11-25

 

We're expecting a baby soon, and Anastasia is expecting pinwheels after she gives birth.  She's been abstaining from lunchmeat.

02-10-25

 

Since I still have many months of Invisalign to go, and it takes a lot of extra bathroom supplies, I got some new storage containers.

Superbowl party.  Watched the ads and halftime show, not the game.

02-08-25

 

Finally made it to Jazz Alley, and what a performance it was!

02-07-25

 

I fall prey to Facebook marketing.

t's so targetted.  It's so expensive.  I'm usually so disappointing. 

But I keep buying.

Loving the scent of lemon custard in this bath gel.  Only downside is I start my days wanting a lemon powered donut.

Heavy housework before heading into Sabbath.  Some weeks I do a little each day, some weeks I do it all on Sunday, this week I am doing most of it tonight so I can truly coast through the weekend.

02-05-25

 

Yep, it snowed.  It's another hiking boot commute day.

02-04-25

 

Strapped on the hiking boots and headed to Pioneer Square for work.  Will it snow or will it not, that is the question this week...

02-02-25

 

Harlem Globetrotters fun this afternoon.  Here Sunshine, one of the two female players, is doing cartwheels across the court.

The six of us spent the morning making freezer meals for Anastasia and Jacob to enjoy after Poppy is born.  

We did a double batch of tater tot casserole, a double batch of turkey chili. Potato chowder. Ranch chicken. Beef stroganoff, Bolognese, and chicken cacciatore.
