Just the other week......

It's been a busy few weeks. This evening a bit more busy but have a bit of time to post photos since last week......

 Scary donuts Phil brought home from work. They are VooDoo donuts someone bought and decorated them. I ate mine the next day at work. Yum!

 We were told to return the teeth so Megan and I concocted a yucky go back for the lady! Candy, ketchup, salsa, ...inside a ziploc bag.....she laughed but then found out we could have kept them. So Phil brought them back home and cleaned up the mess and now we have teeth laying around...waiting for a mouth! !!!!

Hallowe'en afternoon at work a co-worker from hardware store was on her horse giving out candy in the strip mall parking lot. She works on the weekends. I was able to go out and see her so took a photo of her and petted her horse's face. Mag has had this horse for 20 years and it's been in parades and rodeos too. One blue eye, the other brown. Such a pretty horse!

 Last Friday I went to the dentist and had my crown put in. Also had him check on another tooth .....cracked filling...so will be there for another visit....Oh goodness me!! Annoying but it could be worse! Thankful for a good dentist!

 Then drove 10 min to get lunch at Burgerville on my way home. YUM! Then shopping for groceries, mostly meat!

 Sat. evening we went to Fazolis for dinner. I was too tired to cook a meal so a good time to go for our first visit! I'd been  up early to get to a fall clothing swap at our church...found a dress and top, for spring for me and some clothes for the grandchildren, which I hope they liked....all free. The remainder of clothes given to charity here in town. Did sneak a nap in the afternoon too.
Pretty good food! Phil had baked spaghetti, free with signing in an app and it was good. Chicken alfredo fettucini and quite good, with free breadsticks...both of us. We had enough for leftovers and Megan ate the rest of my food. We'll be back again as it's close!

 After a walk where we lost a few calories, I finished the deviled eggs I'd boiled earlier in the day. There's 14 eggs and didn't eat one though I should have. Megan and I had taste tested the filling to make sure it was good. Filling is mayonnaise and mustard, with some seasoning in it too. I put the filling in a quart ziploc bag and cut a corner off it and piped it thru the hole.

Here's dinner after church at the high school. We sat by friends. Can you see the bit of egg on my plate? That's the part that Phil gave me as he got the last half egg that was left!  I spent time talking with people I'd not met before as the one man had been invitied by a co-worker to come...it was fun to talk with them and city fireman who knows me too! Our church isn't big enough to hold large functions like this. Always had it in a school.. Hopefully it will be held in the new gym that's finally being constructed....soon...grounds been excavated...trees taken down earlier this spring.

I helped put painted tatoos on children's hands. The first one didn't work too well as I put too much water on it.. Second one was better, had to get a bit paint off of with a finger inside a wet wipe. Looked better afterwards.

This was an infected sign....from zombies....oh now I'm infected....hahaha!! Oliver wanted glitter too and of course it got on my pants....but came off eventually. At least it wasn't sticky. Lots of people there with families at the thanksgiving dinner our church puts on every year. People of the community were invited...and a few firemen came later for dessert time. Then left awhile later on a call. It was good to see them as I know most of them as well. Always try to keep the children entertained so they don't run all over the place. Phil helped in the play area. This year we didn't get our photos taken at the photo booth....oh well! It was a good day!

Didn't do a whole lot Sunday afternoon..on computer getting a few things done. Later evening, not even going on a walk....I sat down and had a cup of tea with an orange cranberry scone I'd bought on Sat at Bauman Farms. A few grapes too. Scone was a bit dry so added strawberry yogurt to the top and it was pretty good. I don't have clotted cream, like one would have in England. I was a bit hungry but didn't want to cook up something. We eat light on Sunday evenings anyway. Phil eats what he wants. Lazy day and thankful for time spent with people who love on people, no matter who they are.

Night has arrived after talking with my sister for nearly two hours on the phone. Getting a situation figured out. I will be back with you soon....sorry for the absence but a bit of a break is good. too. Life has been busy and I've been tired and am trying something with my Young Living essential oils to help my everyday function to get better. A bit at a time.
Take care and God bless you all!

Whose heart is set on pilgrimage."
