    I have 4 adult children. They are all very different. My youngest daughter, Catherine, is married to a musician, Brad, a drummer with the band, Save Ferris, Official band. They were playing in Chicago last night, so I went to the show. Since, I'm usually listening to oldies music, SKA music would ordinarily not be on my playlist...but this is family.

    I'm posting this on Friday. Tonight, I'm going into downtown Chicago for the evening. I have an invitation to be at a club where Save Ferris, Official Band see link https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEqKGDdNNrqxkGAqGdOlmnw
    will be performing. The tallest guy in the photo is my son-in-law, Brad Dickert. My daughter, Catherine and he live in LA. Usually, I listen to oldies and cowboy music, so this will be an experience.

    So on my list of things to do I went through my daughter's dresses. Yes they fit but are they me. Nope! So I asked a girl at work if she would be interested she was like Yep. You get to a certain age and honestly I don't want to look like I am trying to be 20. I'm not sure what my look says but it definitely doesn't say 20 lol. Kendall says she thinks it says June Cleaver. Lol I hope I am around when they get close to my age.

    March 10th and 11th. Can't believe I actually forgot to check in last night. I thought I had, wow. Guess I hadn't, but I'm all good for both days. Stay focused and remember to check in!

    Exercise: 45 minute walk both days, but knees bugging me today. Step aerobics injury?
    Calories: with limits both days
    Tracking: yes, but looong lists since I know what I put into my cooking. It's easier to put in "frittata", but I know the 2 types of mushrooms that went into it and mentioned both...etc...

    I stayed in Chicago last night. The concert was at a club for young adults and it was just fun!!
    @am_change Catherine is not a musician. She is graduated with a degree in Dramatic Play Writing. Unfortunately, like most of the arts, there are more hopefuls than successfuls. None the less, she and Brad are making a go of it in Los Angeles. They are in-to-the-scene and all of their friends are also the striving-starving musicians; actors; writers and magicians.
    Anyway, back to my report:
    Calories:ok
    Tracking: Ok
    Exercise: lots of walking around downtown Chicago as they celebrated in the usual inebriated manner. Colorful people, parade and river. see my image tomorrow.

    Pass Day #3
    Had a dinner party at my house last night - too much food and alcohol

    @lovesretirement - Beautiful picture!
    @2020pinktogo - Hope everyone gets their power back soon.
    @fitqueenbess - Thought last week might be the end of skiing for the season but the weathermen are saying we are going to get another storm this week. :) I hope you get to live by a mountain one day.
    @RangerRickL - Sounds like you had a great time!
