Oh Louisville…Your Weather is Crazy!

 

Tonight, I have my window in my room open! Lord help us! It was 82 and super windy today and tomorrow it will upper 60s and over the weekend it will be upper 50s! Yes, Louisville weather is crazy.

On Friday, I’ll be heading to Pittsburgh where the temps will be in the upper 40s and low 50s. When I come back on Monday, there will be 60-degree weather most of the week!

I’m NOT complaining because seriously, the weather is so minor in the big picture of our world. But it does mess with the outfit plans…short sleeves and cropped pants? tanks & sweaters? Jeans and flip-flops? Or maybe a little of everything for a short trip…Jeans are safe, so they are going with me and way more tops than I’ll need but I should have something for all weather!

Really, who cares what you wear when you are visiting grandchildren? Those things that used to matter so much, mean very little! Last time I was there, Adrian welcomed me with some serious spit up and Gabriel was in the midst of potty training so I needed running clothes to get up and down the steps in a timely manner!

I’m getting my “fix” of the kiddos and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s been a couple of months and in baby time, that’s a lot! These kids change every day. I’m forever grateful for Facetime and those spontaneous videos or pictures that Katie sends. We may have a new crawler this weekend and I hope that I will get to witness Adrian crawling like I did with Gabriel. When you are far away, those milestones happen and to witness any of them means a lot to me!

I’m hoping to get some pictures of the boys together, with and without me! I have few to none with both of them…Adrian is always smiling and Gabriel is running from the camera! Hopefully, with some of the “bribes” (I mean treats) I am taking along, Gabriel will give me a few cute faces!! Please send good vibes that this will be the trip where it actually happens!!

As we wrap up March (hard to believe!), I realize that time is “marching” on and there is a lot to do! Next week, I’ll be on spring break from my job, which will be a treat! I have a couple of appointments and a couple of fun things too. I’m looking forward to a week of not having to report to work (although I do love my job!) and just being able to get caught up at home!

I’m packed and ready. I’m listening to the wind and thinking the weather is kind of like life…always changing. Tonight I am a caregiver and Friday, I’ll be CeCe! Both of these roles work for me.

I’ll be back next week with lots of joy to share!! XOXOXOXXO

  I WAS READY FOR MY CLOSE-UP….   Happy Friday Friends! I had planned to send out my blogpost on Wednesday, as part of my “back on track” thing, but the information that I wanted to share was not quite ready. So today, a Special Edition of Martini Musings…just for you!!! As you may know/remember, I had a day of photos and filmmaking a few weeks ago. This video was an all-day production and I really didn’t know for sure how it would turn out or exactly where it would be presented. Yesterday (Thursday), I received the email with the link to a video that will soon be on the AARP Facebook page and website. In addition, there would be an article on the AARP magazine online, with the possibility of the article showing up in the AARP magazine. Because you are the people who have loved me for most of my adult life (some even longer!), I want you to have the first dibs on the viewing. This video is a snippet of my journey and why I joined The Ethel Circle, which is a Faceb...

  I’M BACK…AGAIN! I had this ready to go a couple of weeks ago, trying to get back into my normal Wednesday blogpost, but for some reason, the evening got away from me and my good intentions to get back to “work” on my blog, just went out the window. Let it be known, I’m back. This post will address the “Where have you been?” “Are you okay?” and “I miss you!” comments I have received from some of my beloved followers. My last post was at Christmas time over three months ago. I am so sorry! To say I’m not sure what went wrong would be the truth on some levels but on some levels, I’m pretty sure that it was just a time of being in a FUNK … F ully U nder the spell of N egativity and K erffluffing (causing confusion & disorder)! Yep, I was in a funk. Now those of you who know me, know that FUNKS are not my style! Trust me, I do not like funks and I rarely allow myself to go there. This time was a little different. I actually got into the funk before I even realized it. ...

  Go Baby Go!!! Yep…Derby week is in full swing and tomorrow, Louisville will become THE place to be for three days! If any of you are reading this and will be in the area…Welcome and have a great time!! If you want to have a mint julep, feel free to stop by! My week has been so fun and the events did not disappoint. It all started with Opening Night in the Turf Club at Churchill Downs. It was a beautiful evening with a light breeze. Our driver was very kind, but sadly, her car did not have air conditioning, so we were a little warm heading out to the track. Note to self…be sure to ask that question when scheduling!! After arriving near the gate, we enjoyed the easy ride on the escalator and elevator to the Turf Club where we were seated and greeted and ordered our first cocktails…a mint julep for me!! I have to say, it was a lot of fun and I think that winning a few races helped keep the fun going! Food and drink along with good people, celebrities and excellent people wa...
