February is almost over. How did that happen?
The Winter Olympics are over. I’ll admit I wasn’t all that interested. I caught a couple of the figure skating routines. There was some spped skaing on late one night (or early one morning, depending on your point of view). There were some ski events–downhill, specialty, and crosscountry that I peeked at. I saw the Italian wolfdog cross the finish line. That was fine and I’ve heard the rumor that he was awarded an honorary medal. I would have liked to have seen the bobsledding but forgot to check the schedule and it seemed like whenever I tuned it, it was curling. Nothing against curling but…yeah. . I did watch the USA women’s hockey team take gold. Yippee! And then I watched the USA men hockey take gold against Canada on the anniversary of the Miracle on Ice at the 1980 Olympics. I loved the unbridled patriotism the team showed! Since the TV was on, I ended up watching the closing ceremonies. They were…a rather psychedelically hypnotic homage to many things Italian AND sports. Oh, and the life cycle of water. That’s not a dig. It was fascinating. The music was outstanding, the imagery incredible and yeah, I was a bit misty-eyed when it was finished.
In two years, the Summer Olympics will start. The majority of them will be in LA. Some of the watersports (canoe & rafting(?) sorry, can’t remember) and softball (YAY!) will be here in OKC. It’ll be fun.
In other news, I wrote a little, rearranged some chapters, and made some general progress. Sadly, life kept intererring. Nothing bad, just distracting.
We loaded up the boys and headed out on Saturday. Stormy had soccer. There was a high school volleyball tournament at the same the facility as the soccer games. Sooooo many people! And those teams didn’t leave between matches. The noise was crazy. Anyway, Stormy played well and even made a goal but his team lost. We were so glad to get out of there! It was great to see the Kids and the boys were very good and calm though they were totally ready to get out of there too.
Not much else is going on. I did laundry. I even took the lint catcher apart on the dryer and gave it a good cleaning. Why yes, I was avoiding writing, why do you ask? 🙄
As for the coming week, I have no plans and fewer goals. We shall see what we shall see. What are y’all looking at?

Good morning Silver! Yes February and that groundhog will soon be history! I didn’t watch the olympics at all. I’ve always been more of a “doer” than a “watcher”, and I seem to be even more inclined that way as I get older. ((Coffee helps!!)) ((Grin))
Coffee is my duct tape. 😆 There are certain sports I’m interested in so I’ll tune in if I think about it. I like hockey so I made a point of watching both the women AND the men when I got the chance. It was a heck of game Sunday morning!!
I know lots watched it and I saw lots of comments about it.
🤣
All that noise and the boys did well. That’s fantastic. Sorry that Stormy’s team lost.
I didn’t watch the Olympics. I caught clips after things happened. The wolfdog was great. I also heard he was awarded a metal. I wanted to watch the men’s hockey game but was tied up with things in the house.
Other than doing fun stuff, ha ha, around the house this weekend I ordered shoes for C&C’s wedding and today I ordered a dress. Fingers crossed it all fits.
Have a great day!
All fingers crossed 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼that everything fits! The wedding is getting close, isn’t it? The game was tense and I’d mute it and try to do stuff on the computer so I wouldn’t jinx them. LOLOL The boys were very good. Apprently, Toby only wats to howl, whine, or bark when he’s at home. 🙄 Hope you get your stuff done. Have a good evening and agreat week!
