The Chicago River is NOT happy about the January chill! When it's this cold outside, I do my best to focus on indoor activities. A few ways to stay warm?
1.) Drink lots and lots of coffee.
(Is anyone else as sad as I am that the red holiday cups from Starbucks are slowly starting to disappear?)
2.) Paint your bathroom.
Believe it or not, I really DID paint. But it was boring, and I didn't particularly enjoy it:)
3.) Celebrate your brother's birthday.
My brother Kevin is now the big 2-8. He may have questionable taste in music, but he's one of the most outgoing, kind individuals I know, and a small gathering at his house was a wonderful way to stay warm this weekend!
It was definitely a quiet weekend. However, a quiet, cold weekend was much appreciated, as it's the calm before a storm of two talent shows, two bridal showers, a bachelorette party, a dinner club and the everyday chaos of work. Whew. January just might kick my little booty before it's over.
How did you spend your weekend? Did you stay nice and warm??? Happy Monday!

Wow! The Chicago river really was frozen over! My husband and I spent a fabulous weekend in San Francisco...I am going to try to post on it this evening, you should come over and check it out! It included beer tastings, lots of shopping, wandering aimlessly throughout the city, and more:-)
ReplyDeleteBrrr! I would so die. :) I don't do cold. But yay for birthdays and coffee (minus red cups, boo!)!
ReplyDeleteI do #1 even when it's not cold. Ah ha ha
ReplyDeleteLove all your indoor activities, seems like you have alot to look forward to! Its currently 38 degrees celcius here, I dont know what that is in farenhight (such bad spelling) but it is really really hot!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sick of being cold! I just stay inside and drink tea pretty much all the time now!
ReplyDeleteOhhh, looks so much colder than Edinburgh!! It's started to warm up here a bit now, and ice is finally melting after a month.
ReplyDeleteI used to take the gummy vitamins - and I was EXACTLY the same - wanting to munch down the whole packet!! I was taking vitamins but I ran out and never got round to getting more. I'm so getting the gummy vitamins again - you've reminded me how good they are :)

I did a lot of nothing on Sunday, then went for dinner at a delicious french restaurant with my sister. On Monday (my weekend is a bit different) I did some errands, four loads of laundry and cleaned the apartment!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh BRRRRRRR. I still LOVE me some Chicago though, I swear I fell in love.
ReplyDeleteSo. Brother single? HAHAHAHAHA
Love you lady
1. I love Starbucks WAY too much and 2. I am WAY too bummed that the red cups are no more.
