It’s the first weekend of the month, so I‘m linking up with Coco and Deborah for the Ultimate Coffee Date. It’s hard to believe it’s already May! There’s been a lot going in the world and the year seems to be flying by.
What is the Ultimate Coffee Date? Imagine we are having coffee together… this post is what I would tell you. So grab a cup, “listen” and then tell me what is going on with you in the comments, please!
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I had the opportunity to catch up with our host Coco in Chicago and that always makes me happy!
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I finally feel ready to plan some 2025 adventures after a super busy Q1. I was totally spent after March and it took me a month to feel “up for” planning anything. Right now, we only have one trip planned to hike and visit friends in Colorado in July but I’m looking for additional ideas. I’d ask what you have coming up.
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that the lakefront is in bloom and other than the pollen/constant runny nose, I’m here for it. Then I’d whip out my phone and show you my favorite photos. I’d ask how it looks by you.
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I went to the May Day march in Chicago and am glad I did. There were thousands of people marching and it was great to see people out supporting workers, immigrant rights and human rights. I was reluctant to post on social media but got mostly positive feedback on my April 19 post. I know not everyone agrees with me, but free speech is part of democracy and this made me feel a bit more hopeful.
If we were having coffee… I went out dancing last weekend to celebrate my friend Fernanda’s upcoming birthday. The “best” part was that there was a discounted ticket for arriving by 6:00 PM so we had dinner and drinks and danced for 3 hours and I still got home by 10. Basically my perfect evening.
If we were having coffee… I’d ask “what’s happening by you?” Please tell me in the comments!
I’m linking up with Darlene, Michelle, Jenn and Zenaida, for Fit Five Friday. Join us!
PS. Please don’t forget my great giveaways.
