Making jewelry is my second job. I also have a day job that actually pays the bills. Last week, our annual planning meeting was held in Chicago, and since I have some friends there, I stayed through the weekend. I didn’t take any jewelry because I forgot it, along with my personal phone charger, my laptop charger, my comb and hairbrush, and my travel advance card. My boss asked me “What exactly DID you bring?” haha! In my defense, I was at the airport just after 4 in the morning!
Despite my forgetfulness, I had a fabulous time. There is so much to see, I didn’t scratch the surface, and I wish I had stayed a few more days not work-related. I did visit the Art Institute, Millennium Park, the Riverwalk, and walked miles! Unfortunately, the Bean was closed for construction, so I could only get up to the fence.

The hotel was gorgeous!
And of course I had pizza. Delicious!
