A lot to look forward to.<br /><br />In the meantime, it's fun to get a new hairdo. I decided my hair was too dark for Winter and I got some highlights. Glad I did. Makes me think warmer days are coming. We had a bad week of snow. I am sure you did too. The cleanup cost the condo association quite a bit.<br /><br />Looking forward to Spring.

(I like to say this as if someone else was doing the cutting, but it may or may not have been me!) So I decided to grow out all but a little tiny section, and I'm liking that a lot better.

I traveled to Chicago so much when I was working. Every other year I was there for a month straight. So I know a lot of the streets and places. There is going to be another one about lawyers in Chicago. I would say that I was there a couple times a year.<br /><br />I am very bad about cleaning out closets and drawers, but i need to do it. you didn't say when your BDay is, so if I missed it Happy Birthday. So glad you didn't get tacky PJ and terrible perfume. I told my son just give me a gift card and I can get what I want.<br /><br />I like your hair style, it looks good on you and makes you look younger.<br /><br />Love the mantle - looks so good.<br /><br />Well my dear, get over your cold so you can give that baby lots of hugs and kisses.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Mary<br /><br />Mary@mydogsmygardenandmaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03265174897498950754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-13739363476411698352017-02-19T20:06:23.856-06:002017-02-19T20:06:23.856-06:00Your family does have plenty of February birthdays...Your family does have plenty of February birthdays! How wonderful that 2 sons both had babies on the same day--well, I guess the women had a little something to do with it too. With a name like Brooks this baby is destined to great things. One of my heroes has always been Brooks Phillips, the author of O Little Town of Bethlehem. <br /><br />I love your new hairstyle and feel your pain on not being able to exactly replicate it at home. Wouldn't a personal hair stylist be fabulous? And a late happy birthday, Jane. Your tickets sound absolutely worth waiting for. <br /><br />I must try to catch some of the Chicago television series you watch. My grandson and his wife have been in Chicago a couple of years now, almost since their marriage, and they just moved into their first home, a condo in an old building downtown. She is an architect and is loving being able to turn her talents to their own place. I loved seeing your own changes in your home, always love glimpses into blog friends' homes!Dewenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330797553600987145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-60867503501158076492017-02-19T14:35:08.693-06:002017-02-19T14:35:08.693-06:00Jane, congrats on the new baby boy in the family! ...Jane, congrats on the new baby boy in the family!

My fav kind of blog makes me feel like we're friends visiting one another.<br /><br />Love your bangs- did the same thing not long ago - have long straight hair too (pony tails rule) and I don't know what the heck to do with these too-long side bangs. Ugh. Oh well.<br /><br />Anyway, have a fabulous weekend.

I understand what you mean about not being able to fix it right though. Some days I think my hair is just rocking perfection and other days it's a flat mop on my head. We try though. Right?<br /><br />Your new grandson is precious right along with Madelyn. We may or may not have grandkids here someday. There is no talk of it from my boys and neither are married. I do hope and pray for them though.<br /><br />Spring can't get here fast enough for me!

Two months ago I thought a change would be nice, so I let it grow out several inches and I absolutely hated it. Somehow it just made me feel like an old lady with an outdated haircut. So, yesterday I had my stylist cut it back to my pixie (I used Jamie Lee Curtis as my model -- our gray hair is about the same). Now I'm happy again. This is me at this age, and I love it. Cute baby. You're a blessed woman. xoA Joyful Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604235087317891071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-71774095193792335232017-02-16T23:48:22.410-06:002017-02-16T23:48:22.410-06:00Oh, what a beautiful boy!

Just be thrilled your hair's still all there!<br /><br />I think of you when I watch the Chicago shows. I laugh to think how that would work in my tiny town, only having less than twenty streets within the town limit.

Clothing is not made how it used to be...sheesh, I'm old. My parents used to say stuff like that all the time!<br /><br />So glad you got something good for your birthday this year! Men try, but sometimes just seem to fall short! :-) You will have a most amazing time! I love going to the theater...it just always WOWS me and I'm constantly in awe of the talent!
