The widows set down for a chicken dinner prepared by Donna and reflected on events. They were part of the Made In Pgh "Great Yinzer Tailgate" at South Pointe Town Center.  They even took part in a "yinzer olympics" set of games. All of this was to raise money for the Mel Blount Youth Home.  They are about to head out to see Johnny Angel and the Halos on the Saturday after Thankgiving.. you're invited AND.... in '24 they are headed to Antigua.  If you want to make the trip with them, message and we will get you in touch with the travel professional.

Over a few espresso martini's after a great dinner at Jan's house, the ladies talk about Halloween traditions. Are you a dresser-upper or are you blah about Halloween?  Which one of the widows is the Halloween "Grinch?"

As we head into Fall, the Merry Widows reflect on who all decorates for fall, halloween, Thanksgiving and the Holidays.  Some do and some don't. One thing that they all do, is take care of each other and, that's what they suggest that you do!  Make sure that you stay in touch with your friends who may be going through a tough time but may not say anything to you.

The widows recap their weekend trip to Conneaut Lake and talk about their second meet and greet coming up at the end of September.  But in between, they talk about how they all define "self care" a little differently and take care of themselves a little differently while looking out for each other.
