Where have I been the past week?!
Friday, June 18, 2010On June 9th, I headed to Chicago for the 3rd time since November. I stayed with friends, and had a great trip! On the flight to Chicago I designed 2 new scrapbook kits.
The night that I arrived in Chicago, the Blackhawks won the Stanley cup for the first time in a very, very long time. The city went wild! There were horns blazing and fireworks all over Chicago. I loved it.
Later that week, we were going to head to a parade downtown, but when I turned on the news and saw this, I decided to skip it.

I do not like sports {baseball, in particular because it is so painfully slow}, but had a great time at my first Cubs game! It was hands down the best baseball experience of my life, and I wasn't bored at all. I didn't even mind the rain, because a very nice Midwest guy handed us a Sea World poncho so we would stay dry.
The people of Chicago are so friendly. Really.
Enjoying the borrowed poncho in my new hat.
We had great seats!
I returned late Monday night, to wake up Tuesday feeling very run down. Turns out that I am sick. So sad. I finally got some work done but am a bit behind. I was not expecting to get so sick after being away for almost a week.
Hoping I'll be back to my normal self on Monday so I can get through this wait list. So sorry for anyone that has been waiting longer than usual.
Does anyone have anything fun planned this weekend? I imagine I won't be up to much of anything.

Wrigley and the Cubs are THE BEST. The whole Stanley cup thing was a mad house.
