Chicago, Chicago….

Friday I got up very early. DH decided not to exercise, but was still up at 5:00-ish. So he jumped in the shower and turned on all the lights, ran the hair dryer, etc… So, I got up and showered, dressed for a day of volunteering for Cochlear at the Devonshire Senior Center. They were [...]

posting from my mobile phone

as we are going to Chicago this weekend and then to France in July, I wanted to try a post that does not require me to schlep the macbook.

Weekend roundup

Friday was my treatment. I went to the infusion center to get my medication this time. If you’re a blog reader, you know I usually do my treatments at home; however, as I mentioned yesterday, I needed to have a bit more control over the date of the infusion to prepare for my trip to [...]

Quick Post

It’s Thursday and tomorrow I have my treatment. Since we have plans to travel to Chicago for Dave’s annual neurology convention, we’re doing it five days early. It’s been 20 years since I’ve been to Chicago (I’ve been to Rosemont for meetings, but that’s just not the same!). I was in college the last time [...]

Back from Santa Barbara, More Watercolor Pencils, and more

Dave and I had a lovely time in Santa Barbara. We flew directly to the Santa Barbara Airport from Phoenix. It’s a tiny quaint airport with very little in the way of amenities, but it has that lovely Spanish architecture that we loved. For the first time in a long time, I didn’t need to [...]

Holiday gifts

Thank you all for your comments about my fun girls’ weekend with Angie. We really did have an awesome time. Since I’ve been back, I’ve been working hard on some gifts I’m making this year. The first, which is finished, I completed yesterday. It’s a cellphone pouch and a bookmark. Both are quilted and collaged [...]

Prescott, AZ Girls’ Weekend

Late yesterday I returned from a lovely trip with Angie. We went away for our first (of what we expect to be many!) girls’ weekend. Prescott is about 90 miles north of Phoenix. It’s a fairly easy drive and there’s some great views. Before we got on the road, I pulled a bag out of [...]

Back from Kauai

Well, we’re back! We had a much-needed vacation. Lots of relaxing and enjoying island breezes and island food. Dave and I both came back relaxed and refreshed. We stayed at the Grand Hyatt Kauai, which is located on Shipwreck Beach. We spent much of our time relaxing – taking naps by the beach, taking photos, [...]

Back from Bisbee

I’m back from Bisbee, AZ, where I was able to be there for the Grand Opening of SunSpirit Studio. My dear friend, Andrea, asked me to come and be the Featured Artist. I was honored and humbled to do so. Andrea looked through all my art when she was here in August for Art Unraveled. [...]

Doing Well and Bisbee Bound!

I’m here. I’m well. I’m recovered (mostly) from the treatment on Monday. I have had some of my usual ill-effects from it, but for the most part, I’m doing well. I was in the studio on Tuesday making six journals for this weekend’s grand opening of SunSpirit Studio. And today, Angie came over, which always [...]
