JANUARY 2025

It's so cold for Indiana already, so Nicole & I have taken to meeting for a walk at the "Fashion Mall." It really makes the scenery so much better.

Bethany and I went thrift shopping and she brought along her newest foster pup, "Bonita in a bag."

Even the dogs had to depend on sunkight coming in to stay snuggly warm!

FEBRUARY

Finished this crochet-covered rock, a bit late for Christmas, but no worries. I now have a gift ready for later!

During quiet times, I made baby hats for Sisters Village Women's Clinic in the Domincan Republic.

Valentines Day

MARCH

Finally this month is my time to get away to some warm weather on my next RoadScholar Trip! This time it is "island hopping" in the Bay Islands: Jeckyl, St. Simons and Sapelo. Each one is unique, historical and so different in their own ways. At the last minute, friend Sherry from Ohio had to cancel due to ilness. Off I went! RoadScholar travelers are always friendly, seasoned travelers who like to have fun!

Chloe got the role of "Patty Simcox" in her high school Musical, Grease! It was so much fun; and I loved her following in her mother's footsteps. (Nicole played "Marty" in 8th grade)

I got to go to my first Field Hockey game with Captain Brandon in charge!

It's Mothers' Day and I send out wishes to all my family and friends who are Mothers. My day could not have been better. I was treated to Brunch at Sangrita by Nicole and Bethany. I love the stories we have to tell and the laughs we share!

Our Easter (Bobby refused to smile)

This week was a whirlwind of catching up as Spring is blooming upon us and I spent the weekend in Orlando for my dear friend Cindy's wedding. We've know each other since 1978 when both of us lived in Coral Springs, FL. It was an extravagant event, inspired by love, memories and so perfect! Cindy and Sandy deserve a beautiful future!
