Good morning from Northside…


And we made it through another work week!


Good evening from Northside…


We saw this little ladybug in our backyard…


Do you remember this one?

One year ago, we were just figuring out how to work from home…




Fast forward a year, and I’ve really fine tuned my little work space…

I have my little set-up down pat. It’s a pretty functional space. It’s going to be really hard to go back to working in an office. Thankfully, it sounds like it’s still going to be a while until we have to go back to commuting to an office. They are projecting a return in September at the earliest now. ๐๐ก๐ปโค๏ธ

We didn’t have any snow this morning but it was still pretty chilly…


Good morning from Northside…


For about a half hour very morning and every afternoon, our street gets completely clogged with school drop-off and pick up traffic…

It’s a real mess. All the school traffic used to go down the next street over from us. That street is wider and better equipped to handle all the school traffic. This daily traffic jam is probably the part of the pandemic I’m most looking forward to going away. But at least the school finally got their grass cut this afternoon…

Good evening from Northside…



We had an NYPD pizza party this evening…


NYPD had a new stuffed crust pizza that we tried tonight…

Oooh! Stuffed crust! It was pretty good stuff. But I can’t believe I didn’t take a photo of all the cheese in the crust. It was really cheesy.
And 12 years ago, I placed my deposit on our little apartment downtown…

We woke up to a winter wonderland this morning…







Good morning from Northside…




It was pretty crazy to have snow on April 21st.
But later this evening, the sun had come out and all the snow had melted away…

The street was very steamy…





Good evening from Northside…


And a photo of my very first smart phone popped up in my Timehop today…

Technology has come a long way in the last 12 years. ๐๐โ๏ธโ๏ธ๐ฑโค๏ธ

It was a very pretty morning, a little chilly but very pretty…


Good morning from Northside…


But this evening, the clouds moved in and brought some sprinkles…



When we got to the top of the hill at the end of our street, it went from sprinkling…

To raining…

And a good rainy evening from Northside…


Apparently, they’ve started working on the house at the end of our street again…

And we had pesto tortellini for dinner…

It ended up being a pretty and rainy Tuesday. ๐๐โ๏ธ๐ฝ๏ธโค๏ธ

I don’t know if you’ve been following along but a new European football Super League was proposed recently with twelve of Europe’s biggest football clubs wanting to create their own closed Super League simply so they could make more money. I’m not really a fan of James Corden but his take on this proposed Super League was spot on…
Also, mad respect to him for doing an eight minute segment on American TV knowing that most people couldn’t care less about European football.
Anyway, the people that did care about European football were pretty pissed about the proposed new Super League…

My favorite club Arsenal was one of the twelve teams that wanted to break away. The official Arsenal supporters organization in the United States released this statement…

And just as quickly as the Super League was created, it all fell apart as teams started to come to their sense and began backing out…



Now it’s the Fyre Festival of the footballing world…

And now comes the fallout…

Rest in peace, Super League. I hope to never hear about you again. ๐ ๐ก๐คฌโฝ๐คฃ

I had an early meeting this morning and when we took the dogs around the block, school was already in session. And as a result, I didn’t get my morning photo from the top of the hill…


Good evening from Northside…


We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals. This one was Pork Pho Noodle Bowl with snow peas and carrotsโฆ


It was another terrific dinner! We really like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot.

There was good stuff in my Timehop today. It’s a good day whenever photos of Milan show up in my Timehop…


Speaking of ducks… Do you remember the Ride the Duck duck boats that used to run around downtown? I wonder what ever happened to them?

And two years ago, it was my last day at someplace I stayed entirely too long…

I’m very happy to be somewhere I feel appreciated. ๐๐๐๐ฆโค๏ธ

Today was Foursquare Day (4.16)…




Good morning from Northside…


And time for post-walk treats…

After work, we tried a couple of beers from my parents trip out west…


The tangerine citrus ale was pretty good but the blueberry wheat was outstanding.


Good evening from Northside…



We ordered off the kids menu for dinner tonight…



It was pretty good start to the weekend. ๐๐โ๏ธ๐พ๐ปโค๏ธ
