Last Hurrah Before the Ring

A weekend of girl time!
I didn't want to miss this for anything! Anissa is a newly acquired friend from my bestie and she is sweet as pie. I enjoy how she can see a plant or a bug and can tell you exactly what it is. She is the nature enthusiast I would love to be! She has found her man well before I met her last year and is getting married in September. He is a great guy and they seem to work well together. Since I have been inducted into her gang of interesting, eclectic bunch of highly intelligent circle of friends I value it all the same as I have been to ornament parties, games and of course the Dells trip at the end of the summer. This was my second one but more important because it is the last hurrah of her as a single woman.

What was included in the weekend was a stay at the Polynesian Resort, Dells Boat Tours, partying the night away at one of the Dells clubs, lounging by the pool and of course eating at the High Rock Cafe which is a popular place to have a nice meal at in Wisconsin Dells. I attended the boat tours but did not make the club because I thought it would have been a little tacky to go clubbing at eight months pregnant. I had dinner at High Rock but I left early in the morning to get to hubby since I missed him so and missed the pool time. Here are some more pictures from this fun weekend!
My "bachelorette" gift to Anissa- an erotic cookbook. Actually, a lot of the recipes sounded pretty good to make. Might need to borrow that. LOL!

Shuffleboard anyone? Friday night.
Shotgun wedding! All I need is the groom. LOL!
No Anissa. You can NOT get married here!
Rootbeer floats before heading on the boat.
Beautiful view! Upper Dells Boat Tours
Witches Gulch- nature's air conditioner. It was so cool there.

We didn't want to leave the area. It was so quiet and beautiful!
Dinner that evening at High Rock
My "bestie" and I.
Downtown Dells in the evening.

The ladies clubbing it that evening. I was in the hotel room resting and prepping my hair for bed.

Overall, I had a great time but I really want to go back and this time making it a family thing with Vince and my little one. I think it made me realize how ready I am to begin to see the growth of this family as I always was content with my little family of two. How much fun if there is a third party involved!? We shall see soon enough. Would I do a girls weekend again? Of course! I think it is a good way to go back to when you were young and free. I may need a break from the family but I am not sure yet because I hear how people change after children are brought into the mix. Oh yeah, pics will be up when we go to their wedding in September.
I am seriously trying to commit more to this blog so there will be more posts. Oh yes!

The Great Conjunction- Function: What does it all mean?

Image
 If you are living under a rock or not into Google, you most likely did not see this picture:  So, if you did see this and think: how cute! Let me click on this. You already know. So, today is December 21st which is the winter solstice. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere, it marks the astrological first day of winter is the longest night of the year. What you may not know is that two planets are aligned so it appears as if they are giving each other a "high-five". They call this a conjunction when planets are aligned. How cute, right? They have not been this close since 1663, so this is an epic event. So, you will be seeing something that Galileo saw when he devised telescopes. This event happens every 20 years but every 321 years or so where you can see it in great detail. Both of these planets are beautiful, not like Earth but beautiful. Now, if you are like me and live in an area of light pollution, most likely you will see a star and a planet. Here, in Chicago proper, ...

Where does the Time go?

Image
 I know where my time goes- into treating patients. I am loving this life of treating numerous and multiple patients. Maybe from the suppression of seeing accident and worker's comp patients.  That is really me treating- no Photostock/AI pictures! Side Note: This was created in February 2025. It was stopped and completed in April 2025.  With changes in the schedule, it has been difficult to maintain this blog. I am keeping current and will begin to have a schedule where I post once a month. Wish me luck!

Food, Air and Water Show and NAILS

Image
Today has looks very similar to yesterday- work out, eat when you can, read, clean, computer searches for jobs along with ideas and concepts. This morning I went for a run and it looked like rain so I shortened the run and went a little faster just because I did not want to be like the old guy in the tale "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and get struck by lightning. Hubby somewhat shocked me today because he asked about the Air and Water Show. I asked why and he thought it would be good for both of us to go either this year or next year. I have always hated the Air and Water Show because when I lived two blocks from the lakefront I could never nap or focus because of the noise of the planes. One thing about living in the city I do not like and that is all the noise pollution. I have pretty sensitive hearing so at times my hearing goes out for a day once it went out for three days and when I say goes out I mean it feels and sounds like someone put cotton in both my ears...
