Last night, February 11th, my employer, The Village Network, had an employee appreciation party. It was loads of fun. I got to dress up, hang out with friends and dance. (Thanks Charlene, Tim, Sam and Rich!) During the evening I was able to meet a fellow employee's new wife and another coworker's fiancé. I enjoy meeting newlyweds and people planning on getting married, because I want them to know how awesome marriage is. I might come on a bit strong, but the conversation goes something like, … [Read more...]
Did We Just Get Authentic Philly Cheesesteak in Ohio?
Wendi and I have been very busy lately, with work, with the holidays, with our great-nephews and with helping to organize a marriage event. Because of our schedules, there has not been a lot of traveling done for this blog, just a whole lot of whatnot. But, Wendi remedied that Saturday when she let it be known she wanted to go do something for the blog. That something turned out to be a triple treat: Lunch at Original Steaks and Hoagies in Twinsburg, Ohio; a walk with Owney, our dog, through … [Read more...]
Top Posts from 2016 on Wendi’s Weekend Trips & Whatnot
Did you have a good New Year's Eve and New Year's Day? We hope your 2017 is better than 2016. For Wendi's Weekend Trips & Whatnot, 2016 was a time of growth and a time of challenge.

It’s Beginning to Sound a Lot Like Christmas
My husband, Bobby, and I don't have any children. We have four cats and one dog. (If you've even read my blog just a little bit, you will have met Owney, our dog. He's a regular guest writer for Wendi's Weekend Trips and Whatnot.) I say that to let you know that I've never experienced the staying up most of the night to assemble this or that toy. I've never been awaken from sleep during the wee hours of the morning to see what Santa left under the tree. I've never had to listen to an obnoxious … [Read more...]
Families Light the Way to the Christmas Spirit
I don't decorate for Christmas. I know that is almost sacrilege. I have what I would consider 5 really good reasons I don't. They are named Gracie, Buddy, Mr. Thomas, Kirby and Owney (our cats and dog). Don't get me wrong, I actually really love Christmas decorations. And one of my favorite ways to get my Christmas decoration fix is to look at other people's decorations. I am related to a couple of Christmas decorating enthusiasts. My Aunt Pam's husband Domenick decorates the house both … [Read more...]
