Happy February Fave Five

As you are reading this FFF, I will be inside an airplane flying very high in the blue sky many thousands of feet above the earth.

1. A wedding was announced! We booked reservations! We're going! That's why I won't be online commenting much this weekend.

2. We will be spending lots of quality time with extended family!

3. There will be hours of enforced inactivity sitting buckled up. I packed yarn. Lots of yarn. And books.

4. Last weekend, The Professor and I drove to LA and after attending a dedication ceremony for a teen center and hanging out with lots of old friends, we had dinner with other friends. Reconnecting and catching up with special people was great. I took a few photos but blogger is not allowing me to post them.

5. Because I do not normally enjoy shopping, I was pleased to find just the right tops to warm up my wardrobe for our trip to Northern latitudes.

Thank you, Susanne, for faithfully hosting Friday Fave Five!

A wedding! What fun! And uninterrupted knitting time too! For me, it would be crocheting but sometimes its nice to have an excuse to just focus on your project alone.

Hope you’re flying high and safe right now! Enjoy the wedding. Such fun. I love enforced sitting time, too.

What a full, fun week to enjoy! I don't like shopping either. I like to get in and get what I need and get out as quickly as possible.
Have a terrific week!

A hefty supply of yarn and books can make you forget you're being held captive in the silver tube.

Enjoy the wedding! Happy travel!

Was amused that you got to experience the winter storm in Chicago.
Lots of fun if it doesn't happen too often.
Happy weekend.
