Thursday, December 14, 2023 Remember Keith’s concert last week with the outstanding singer? We went to see his dance show tonight. It was REALLY good and then really not so good. It needed an editor. There were 15 people in the cast and every single one of them was VERY talented. It was primarily a […]

Wednesday, December 13, 2023 If I wake up early, I am late for work. I have extra time, so I do extra things. Happens every time. This year, Thanksgiving was early, so we had a whole extra week before the big holidays. So, we started decorating today. 🙂

Tuesday, December 12, 2023 We went to our friend Liam’s band concert tonight. It was really nice. We enjoyed playing “find Liam” among the 100ish players. He plays saxophone, so of course we were scanning the center of the band – the saxophone area. I found him first – back by the low brass! Of
Monday, December 11, 2023 What a gift it is to find out that someone was thinking of you! We got this postcard today – mailed from the Vatican on October 26. The message says, “They said we could write a postcard and get a Vatican City stamp, so naturally we thought of you.” Wow. Just

Friday, December 8, 2023 We went to see the show Wrapped Up in Red at the Phipps. As we walked into the theater, I asked Keith what kind of show it was. He had no idea. I had no idea. Interesting sometimes when we buy season tickets in the spring what comes up in December.
Thursday, December 7, 2023 Keith has been practicing for this concert for weeks. After Hours Big Band played as part of the Spring Lake Park concert series and he said it was going to be the hardest concert he had ever played. He had a LOT of high notes. He asked for a mic for

Wednesday, December 6, 2023 We went to the little Woodbury mall and there was a sleigh! I assume sometimes there is Santa or someone or something happening with the sleigh, but it was close to 9pm and no one was around but us. We sat in the sleigh for a while. I am really good
Tuesday, December 5, 2023 I saw a picture last year of a little tree-shaped thing made out of food cans. So, I saved cans (in a year, I didn’t quite save all 100, so I got some from Maren, Alexander, and Sean). Then I set them on the floor, shaped like a tree, and left
