Saturday – We were all up pretty early although I was up the earliest and worked on my paper while Kathy and Leslie slept in. After a quick breakfast, we decided to jump in the hot tub for awhile to warm up. The only bad thing was getting in the cold elevator when returning to [...]

Friday – Yes – the question was finally answered – I was able to head to Champaign to see Leslie today. The forecast for 1-3 inches of snow didn’t happen in northwest Illinois, and by the time I left Freeport at 11, the roads were good in the middle of the state where it did [...]

Thursday – I’m writing this on Sunday, and even though it was only three days ago I don’t think Thursday was very memorable – because I have no details of the day. I know I went to work, and when I opened my drawer I thought – I love pencil top erasers and had my [...]

Wednesday – Hump day. Weather was better, driving was fine in the morning. Busy at work and skipped health club at noon, but went to Zumba after work. Trying to make it through the readings for Art History today – still 20 pages to go. Trying to get through a class in 8 weeks gets [...]

Tuesday – Back to work in Freeport today. Roads were maybe a little slick in the morning, especially city streets in Freeport, but fine later on in the afternoon. Sue came for dinner and 2e started out with Amaretto Stone Sour cocktail hour. Hey, it’s a birthday party, why not, so what if it is [...]

Monday – Big sister Sue’s birthday. She was supposed to come for dinner at night but that didn’t happen due to the icy roads that went on all day. Instead, she took a raincheck for Tuesday. I decided to work from home since they were predicting ice all day and the back steps and sidewalk [...]

Sunday – Today is a good day to stay indoors for sure. It is cold and raining a lot. Glad we went to Dubuque yesterday. So it left me with laundry and taxes – quite a combination. I started on Leslie’s and went as far as I could. Just need one piece of information from [...]

Saturday – Woke up early and planned to spend the day in tax land, but Sue called and wondered if I wanted to ride along to Dubuque. Since I’m in the market for a new vacuum cleaner, I said sure. (also – since I’m a procrastinator – it was a good dodge of the paperwork). [...]

Friday – Woke up early at Laura’s and left for work in Freeport by 6:15 – even before the girls woke up so I never did see Chloe. On the drive through Rockford the moon was a beautiful and huge and orange and alas – also going down which it did before I got to [...]

Thursday – Another warm day – the snow is melting like crazy. After work, I went to the Northern Illinois Advertising Awards with Sandra. It was on the far eastern side of Rockford. I made plans with Laura to spend the night with them, rather than drive back, because 1. I don’t love driving at [...]
