Wow! It’s Wednesday!
I’ve realized I’m not very good at posting on Fridays. So I’m thinking of changing High 5 It’s Friday to Wow! It’s Wednesday! Same things I’m thankful for and loving, just on a different day of the week. Wish me luck!
Birthday
My birthday is on January 9. I’m not one of those people that celebrates their birthday for a whole month or even a whole week. One day is plenty for me. Although I was toying with the idea of extending it to two days but that was because I found an unfinished needle point project announcing my birthday as January 8. I have no idea who made it or why they thought my birthday was going to be January 8. I probably need to investigate more before I celebrate for two days.
Wildfire
We went to dinner at Wildfire. They have the best steak. And they make you feel so special. Plus we always run into people we know there. It’s fun to catch up with people we haven’t seen in a while.
Cafe Latte
I was told that Cafe Latte has the best desserts. They didn’t disappoint. I got a bunch of them (cupcake, cheesecake, truffle, German Chocolate cake) to commemorate my birthday.
Headlining Weekend
I had my second headlining event, this time for a whole weekend. Three shows! I had some friends that I worked with decades ago come to the show. I’m humbled by the people that come out to support me.
A Very Icy Walk

We’ve had some pretty warm days for a January in Minnesota. It’s melted what little snow we had and refroze so there are lots of ice patches. This is very true for one of the places we take our dogs for walks.
We got them out this week but it was a struggle for all of us to stay on our feet instead of our butts. The dogs never mind the condition. They’re just happy to be out or the house and exploring.
A Million Little Things
I binged A Million Little Things. Then I started watching it with my husband. It’s so good.
Me: I started watching A Million Little Things. It’s so good.
Carter: As good as This is Us?
Me: Better. I cry 9–10 per episode instead of 4 or 5.
One thing I love about this show is the music. Every episode has such great songs to fit the events they’re dealing with in their lives.
I’m Sorry
Another show I discovered was I’m Sorry. I binged it. Then I rewatched it with Carter. I love the writing of this show. It makes me want to be a better writer.
How’s your week going?
