Pre-concert dinner at Kura Revolving Sushi Bar! I’ve always wanted to do one of these and we definitely had fun! Our drinks were even delivered via robot!
Amazing seats (third row!) for Branford Marsalis at North Shore Center for Performing Arts. Thank you Vettix!
All this snow and ice just came crashing down off the solar panels and scared the shit out of the dogs who started barking like crazy. In their defense, it was really freaking loud.
Olive and Ivy were very aggressive when Jules came in the house…but they did finally settle down.
I wanted a Dream Box back when we were redoing the office…but they are super expensive (and then we figured out it wasn’t what I needed for my business).
Fast forward to Tom finding a used Dream Box on Facebook marketplace and the price was right so I grabbed it! It was 1.5 hours away so it was a little bit of work but she’s home and beautiful in the basement bedroom.
Now to fill it with all my Christmas stuff, crafts, art supplies, Cricut accessories…
Well, and watch these two be cute.
Katie has an official old school snow day since teachers didn’t send home Chromebooks at all the schools. Owen has a late-start eLearning day.
Today doesn’t look much different for me, though…I’ll be finishing book 8 soon!
And it’s a wee bit chilly—there is ice in our microwave!
We loved Whose Line is it Anyway? so when we had a chance to see Colin locally, we jumped at it—and it was indeed hilarious!
The cheer team was invited to cheer at halftime of the women’s CLC game! They did a good job!
We love the show Big Mouth so when I saw this personalized artwork on Etsy I had to get it. So we all now have a framed copy.
Anna has gotten really good at crocheting and gave me this for Christmas!
And then nappies.

Since we missed going to Grayling for Christmas since Katie had Covid, we surprised them in Lansing for the Schwalm Christmas! We decided at about 10am that we could make it…and walked in to Beth and Jim’s as they were finishing dinner! SURPRISE!
From Drunk on the Job The Misadventures of a Drunk in Paradise: Book #4
This sounded good so I’m saving it here!
