February 21st, 2022

 A Monday off in February! Thank you Mr President.

I’ve woken up in Vegas on this day, Fort Lauderdale on this day, New York, Cancun and New Orleans.
All great memories! Mostly hungover, but memories with stories to match.
Sure beats walking to the Congress el with a wind chill of negative fifty!
So thank you Mr. President!
Today’s quote comes from one of my favorite characters to live in the White House. Old Hickory… our seventh President, Andrew Jackson.
My Gramma often used this quote about going to mass. Give Jesus an hour out of your weekend if you want to go to heaven!
I watch mass on television between “CBS Sunday Morning” and “Sportcenter.”
Nobody in my living room gives me the evil eye when I say, “and also with you.”
“And with your spirit?” Okay Father Svengoolie! (Chicago thing)
Might be another day of Matzo Ball Soup and scones… no it’s not Covid….
I got lucky getting a cold on a long weekend without the kids.
Enjoy the short week. Short weeks always seem longer…. I don’t know why!
The last week of February… Mardi Gras next Tuesday! Westside Irish Parade on the fifth and “Sixty Days in Celebration of Cecilia” on the sixth.
Here comes the sun…. Do da do do!
