I keep forgetting to use this platform, in addition to others. For those not on FB - I have a life update! Joey and I are moving back to the Kalamazoo area!

Something that I think is really cool - There are businesses and friends who have extended the Amazon boycott to Whole Foods and the entire month of March. Some have already cut ties with Amazon all together.

I love that people take protests they agree with and make the original protests louder!

REMEMBER! Tomorrow is the economic blackout! NO shopping/fast food tomorrow! Also, NO Meta/X social media! Fill up your tanks today, if you're traveling over the weekend. Make sure you have food in the fridge for tomorrow. Pack your lunch. This is the easiest form of protest we can do!!

Apparently, Charcuterie is our go-to Valentine's Day Tradition. Also, apparently, we have watched Captain America on a few Valentine's Days as well. Last year, we built Lego. This year, we went for all three! A late, but fun night.

Enjoyed a lovely weekend with my honey! We enjoyed local brews and pierogis at Urbanrest and some pup socializing at Loc@l

Not pictured: Lego building, Hobbit watching, yummy home-made meals, and delicious Whiskey Taco Foxtrot takeout.

We need more indoor dog-friendly places!

Happy 3rd Birthday, to our youngest pup, Remy! He's one of the of the best boys, and a classic goldenretriever. He has issues with some dogs, but he's great with most. He loves his brother, loves snuggling his humans, and he loves dog parks. So glad to have him in our lives!

Happy year of Jane Austen! Here is some information on how you can celebrate her 250th (in addition to reading ‘Northanger Abbey’, of course.)
