#TBT Pause for paws.

Always remembering the good times with the bud dog. 😀❤

1337!

For some reason, WordPress thought it necessary to send a notification congratulating us on our 1337th post to our blog

I could understand it if it was the 1300th post or the 1350th post or definitely the 1500th post. But celebrating the 1337th post? Seems a little bit odd to me. It’s very specific. But hey, I guess you gotta celebrate the little things too! 😀📮❤️

Pause for paws.

I was puttering around in our office this afternoon. And while we were organizing, Oscar figured out that if he jumped up onto the sofa he could climb up on the sofa’s arm and look out one of the office windows into the backyard…

He sat up there for about a half-hour just watching the backyard. And don’t forget to check out Oscar’s Instagram. 😀🐶❤️

Physical therapy x Higher Gravity.

I had my first session of physical therapy for my hip this evening…

It went pretty good. It wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. But then again, nothing about this entire hip replacement process has been as bad as I thought it would be. Not even close. At all. I thought every step of this process was going to be far more grueling and painful than it’s actually turned out to be. So in my mind, I either really overexaggerated how horrible an experience I thought this would be and braced for the worst possible scenario at each and every step of this process, or this has been a study in the best possible case scenario for a complete hip replacement. At the end of June, I’ll be having my left hip replaced. It’ll be interesting to see how that experience compares to this experience. I hope it’s very much the same, an identical experience or an even better experience than what I am working through right now. Because this really hasn’t been that bad at all.

Anyway. After my first physical therapy session, we stopped at Higher Gravity for a beer. We hadn’t been to HG for almost three weeks. The last time we were there was to watch Xavier knock off Georgetown in OT back at the beginning of February…

We stopped in tonight because we wanted to try #11, the Hawaiian Speedway Stout

And it was awesome! It was also awesome to be able to get out of the house and do something again…

Only 10 more physical therapies to go! 😀🍻❤️

Timehopping.

One year ago today, we got this awesome Twister selfie at the Cyclones game

Thanks for remembering, Timehop! We haven’t made it to one Cyclones hockey game yet this season. We’re hoping to get to at least one game in March now that I’m actually able to walk a better. And we definitely can’t wait to get back our normal schedule of Cyclones hockey games next season once my hips are good again. 😀👇📷🏒❤️

J. Gumbo’s.

I really like J.Gumbo’s Bourbon Street Chicken with an extra slice of garlic bread…

It’s good stuff. And I love garlic bread. 😀🍜❤️

Gearing up for another season with FC|C.

FC Cincinnati has a new kit for their third season of exciting USL soccer action. So this afternoon, I crutched my way across downtown to the FC Cincinnati Team Store to pick up my brand new FC Cincinnati home jersey that had just arrived…

It was supposed to be all bang-bang, in and out but I made the mistake of stopping to look at the other new merch in the store. On the women’s side, I was really digging on these two FC|C sweatshirts for Genifer…

After a quick consultation via text with Genifer, she decided on the blue hoodie. What’s awesome about hoodies like this is that they zip up extra high on the neck. And they’re hoodies. Genifer got me an Arsenal hoodie for Christmas that has an extra high zip and it’s quickly become one of my very favorite sweatshirts. Because of the zip and well, it’s a navy Arsenal hoodie.

Also with the first real preseason match right against Nashville SC right around the corner on March 3rd, I figured I might as well pick up a couple of FC Cincinnati winter hats in case the weather decides to get all wintery on us again. I got one of each of these stocking caps. We’ll bicker about who gets to wear which one later. I’m just kidding, we don’t bicker. At all…

I got myself a new FC Cincinnati hoodie with a high zip as well…

And it has an embroidered crest on the arm…

And here’s my new FC|C 2018 home jersey…

I’m a little disappointed in it. Both the Nike logo and Toyota sponsor are part of the fabric of the jersey. On last season’s jersey, the Nike logo was embroidered and the Toyota logo was an applique. Also, I feel like I’m going to have to be extra careful with the FC|C crest. At first glance, it seems like you could easily peel it right off. It’s just kind of crazy that both sweatshirts I purchased feel like much more quality items than the jersey. And I really dig the extra little-embroidered details both of the sweatshirts have. Plus, the two sweatshirts combined cost just a little bit more than one jersey. To be honest, right now the jersey is just a little bit whomp-whomp to me. I’m sure it’ll grow on me as we get into the season. Oh well, #JoinTheMarch, right?

We’ll pick Genifer up a new jersey just as soon as FC Cincinnati announces when women’s or kids sizes are going to be in stock. 😀⚽️🔷🔶❤️

#Boxcraft.

When did Amazon start putting really cool panda masks on the flaps of their boxes?
😀📦🐼❤️

Seen and noted.

Genifer took this photo today. Our car said it was 81º outside this afternoon…

I don’t know that it was that warm outside today. But it was definitely in the mid-70s. And whatever the temperature actually was, it was definitely way warmer than it should have been for a day in the middle of February. And we liked it. A lot. 😀🌡️❤️

Good morning from Northside.
