Last Easter I took a stream of pics of T and her Aunt V. They wer laughing and having a great time, but this one was just so sweet.

I'm sick....

I tried and tried to fight it off - I've been airborning on an off and thought I was successful, but it looks as if I only delayed it cause I finally succumbed to the plague that's been floating through the office. Luckily hubby is taking good care of me - got me more Nyquill, and cough drops, and orange juice and is currenlty making me soup. Because I become such a baby when I'm sick.....he's even doing my laundry so I can sleep! Good man.

Oh, Chicago....

La, la, la....

I finally made it out to the windy city - and for all my fear of a cold blustery weekend, I was pleasantly suprised by sunny and beautiful days. Too bad I spent them all in meetings, but I did get a little wandering around on breaks so saw some sunlight.

And although it was a completely packed 4 days with meetings and dinners and dinners and meetings that I never even got my camera out for, I did spend a bit o' time at a great blues bar, Kingston Mines. In so many ways it reminded me of those days where I was the gal, out with the guys - although this time I wasn't dating anyone in the band. It was a great band, learned some fascinating things about some of our leaders (I'm not the only born and bred Jerseyan) and even with the whole spring forward, still made it on time to the last day of the meeting!

I also got to hang out with an old buddy who had moved out to Chicago about 6 years ago. The hubby and he used to work together, and we had many a double date when hubby and I first fell for each other. One of my favorite southern boys, it was great to catch up with him and laugh about all the good times we had.

Of course, the whole time was bookended by delayed flights, but it wasn't too bad - and by the way, Jet Blue is hysterically aplogetic about everything now. Which made me laugh, until it started interrupting my viewing of Revenge of the Nerds!

Yay, I'm still posting! Ok, this was taken at the Grounds for Schulpture down in Hamilton. The peacock just decided to hang out in the spotlight at the doorway.
