February Roundup

First. I'm sorry for my lack of updates this month. We all know excuses are like.... well, you know. But here are mine.

1. February is the WORST. It just is. Good thing it's short.

2. New York has been cold, snowy, gray, and miserable since the last time I complained about the weather. I'm not even being dramatic. It has been confirmed that this February has been the coldest in recorded history. We have spent more than 20 days in the last 2 months with highs BELOW zero.

3. We've been busy. Despite terrible outdoor conditions, I feel like life has been moving at warp speed. Between work, playdates, real dates, friend dates, birthdays, dog training, party planning, and in-law visit preparation, I've barely had a moment or two to myself.

Ok, enough excuses.

I will now share with you the overwhelming excitement that is February in New York.

 
Weekend outings to Bass Pro Shops with Rebel. Socialize, socialize, socialize. He's an amazing dog.
 






 
Beer brewing, obviously.


Warming up by the fire. All.the.time.
 

 
...and snuggling under blankets, just as much.
 
 
...and in tents.

 
Because this is what it looks like outside.

 
Work-from-home selfies.

 
 ...and cuddle from home selfies.
 
 
Thank goodness for friends, and leaving the house.  

 
In our town, snowmobiles are more popular than cars.

 
We made chocolate-covered strawberries for Valentines Day.

 
...and Tyler and I ate them.

 
A Mardi Gras party

 
...and work-from-home dates with a fellow work-from-homer (and her doggie, Cookie).

 
and poker lessons, because it's February.


Here's to March, and possibly signs of life. Like melting snow?

XOXO
