To my world of the weird, the strange, the unexplained......... no, I'm just kidding, this is a happy place......OK, maybe I am just a little weird.

orange creamcicle fat bombs

I made these sugar free dreamcicle fat bombs for a snack later. Sure, I could have used ice cubes trays instead of candy molds, but what fun would that be? I am "one" with the dreamcicles today!

Sometimes you just have to be bad..

Red Hat lunch at Mi Pueblo in Salem IL

I had lunch with my Red Hat sisters at Mi Pueblo today. Delicious food with some sweet ladies. Kathy Albert made us use our brains with some games, then me made a craft out of a roll of toilet paper and other items. That was fun! A couple of the ladies had fried ice cream, sure looked good (see photo) and we all got a cute owl cupcake. We had a great day, thanks again, Kathy for another great lunch with you as our hostess.

Getting ready for Halloween!!! I had to re-decorate this hat though, it came with the goggles and a string that wouldn't fit through the eyelets.....😜

Charleton Heston "Soylent Green is people"...

I received a free sample from Amazon yesterday, it's called Soylent Squared..it's a little square, I mean tiny, meal replacement bar, that tastes like a Tootsie Roll (the chocolate one)...it's made with soy, vitamins, and probiotics....I live among the soy bean fields and I see what they do to them, so I don't eat soy ever, but I had to taste it, you know, to be fair. There are 3 flavors, Chocolate (brown), Salted Caramel (gold) and berry (Pink)...at least they had the sense to not make Soylent Green.. 😉..I know you Sci-fi "old" people understand what I'm talking about.

Beautiful day once again in Kinmundy town

FREE STEAM BATHS IN ILLINOIS TODAY..   :)

Website chart

I thought this was interesting...for you young people who think there has always been an internet, computers and cell phones...Here's a real time chart, updated yesterday, that shows how many websites there were in 1991 until today..Bill and I didn't get a home computer (desktop of course) until probably 1997 or 98. Yet, it is an important part of our daily life, like most everyone else...it's hard to believe it is still so new and yet has exploded into every part of what happens on our planet. There WERE types of computers that just collected data in individual businesses..I worked two different places in the 1980's where I worked on these dinosaurs....we thought they were pretty great at the time though.

Bingo!

We had such a great time at Country Creek Treasures at game day today! I won the first three bingo games, no matter what kind we were playing..the force was with me! I won a bamboo wind chime, a bath scrubbie, a package of oreos and a Reeses peanut butter cup! What a haul! Seriously, it was just for fun with good friends, thank you ladies for a really fun afternoon, I needed that!

Taco Party with the Haltermans

We had a taco party with the Haltermans today. (there was also taco salad and sloppy joes) My siser-in-law, Debbie, made a fluffy cake and her grand kids made sea creatures out of fruit on top, so it was delicious AND fun to eat. We all enjoyed holding the newest additions to our family, Melissa and Tevin's twin girls Rosemary and Jasmine aka Rosie and Jazzy..they are so cute and are bursting with energy..Amanda, our niece, brought the great nieces and nephew, and they are always such a hoot and very interesting to talk to. It was a great day with the family. I hope you all had a good Saturday!
