Happy St. Patty's Day - Something about being in Chicago - all bathed green makes me realize Spring really is coming!!! And by the way, it's true, even if you're an Italian Mexican - EVERYBODY'S Irish in Chicago today!! Viva la corned beef and cabbage!

A Couple Pictures of San Antonio



Just to remember what the sun looked like - here are a couple pictures of San Antonio.
Casa Rio on the Riverwalk and La Tierra Bakery & Cafe.
I just realized on the way back to work today - Chicagoans are jerks - from the guy racing me to a parking spot, to the train conductor, to the guy who quickly closed the elevator doors so I couldn't get on. Must be a lack of sun.

So Here's Today

I arrived back from San Antonio - warm, happy, optimistic - ready to jump into my new start...and then came...Chicago Winter - soggy, dismal, sad. My flight was three hours late, my cab fare was $30.00 more than I expected, I had a mountain of laundry, my dryer was broke and I slipped and fell in the mud trying to detrmine whether it was the outside vent- very graceful.

I also missed out on Buffet tickets, but assured my husband we could have a Margaritaville party in our basement - which our remodelers graciously painted salmon PINK!! during my trip. Oh well, it's home, I'm still happy and I learned how to create and what to do with a blog!! while I was away.
I guess He's just making sure my patience holds up!
