Busy February

What a fun and busy week I had. Pour yourself a cup o’ something and join me as I show you what happened.

February is a busy month in the Phoenix area. There are really big events going on and the weather is iffy. In fact, it’s been cool, sweater weather but nothing to keep me indoors.

And although there are big events going on, I didn’t attend any. This is just a series of fun and wonderful things I did while spending time with dear friends.

Anthem Trails

I met friends Barb, Evon, Jenny and Deb various times over the week for walking and coffee and catching up.

Deb took the rose picture for me since I wasn’t tall enough to get a good angle. I’m not even kidding. The rose trees are on the grassy area of the Ironwood club.

Cindy, Sara, Evon and I met at a local coffee shop one morning. Sara treated us with yummies from Chompie’s deli and we had such a good time catching up.

Shira came by and dropped off a little bag of yummy Godiva chocolates for a galentine treat.

The week before last dear friend Connie and her out-of-town twin, Kate, dropped by on one of their walks and it was so lovely to see them.

Last minute easy gettogethers are the best. I’m blessed by living in a community with such wonderful friends.

Turf Paradise

If you’ve been following me a while, you know that our posse likes to make a field trip to Turf Paradise at least once a year to watch a few pony races.

Evon, Janis and John joined me for lunch and an afternoon of watching the magnificent horses do their thing.

I don’t care one thing about betting on horses. I love looking at them. Oh, and the people watching ain’t half bad either.

Galentine Event

One of the businesses we use hosted a galentine brunch and flower arranging class. Cindy and her sister-in-law Marcie were invited. Denisse met me there and the four of us had a lovely time chatting and making our masterpieces.

The Flower Garage supplied each of us with a ton of stunning flowers. And a lesson on arranging. The Vig supplied the brunch and patio.

The Flower Garage is a studio that conducts classes and events. If you’re looking for an upscale event, consider using them. Highly recommend!

Birthday Pedicures

After the flower arranging class, I met Wendy to celebrate her birthday at Evolve Salon for the most incredible pedicure ever!

Really! Evon has been using them for years, but since I rarely get pedis, it was all new to me.

If you’re interested you sit in a warm recliner with pillows, eye masks, noise cancelling headphones and soft music, while getting head, neck and leg massages.

I felt like a noodle when it was over.

Wendy and I left very happy and this is another highly recommend!

Anthem Health & Wellness Club

Deb’s meeting is noon on Wednesday, February 26th at the Anthem Civic Center.

As always, the meeting is no charge, but registration is appreciated.

Wrap Up

I hope your week was as fun as mine way. I really cannot do so many things every week!

Coming up this week, I want to talk a little bit about fitness and nutrition plans I have on the horizon.

I’d love to hear what plan you might be following that works for you.

God bless you and thanks for being here.
