Doin A New thing

Wedding was beautiful of course. 3 days back and forth to Taylorville. Not a big deal but my dashboard in my car kept flashing a cup of coffee sign and a message to take a break from driving.. HMMMMM Leave me alone car.. If I want to be bossed around I'll get married hahah. J/K because

when my prince finds me he can boss me sometimes :-)  Maybe.. …..here and there... ok 3xweek lol

Traveling to Peoria on 9/25 to volunteer at the fall thingy at WIBUI Christian  radio. Hoping to recruit a couple of friends too. Life is better lived by helping others. Come on girls.. Letzzz go. One more week before the actual Fall fundraiser. 

Looking forward to the coming weekend with Linda and Rose and the other military girls. Play at the old state capital on Friday and Saturday is the cemetery walk in Auburn.

Come on Cubbies.. WE are still 2 1/2 in front.. You can do this..

My friends have been commenting that I am not myself lately... not bubbly and smiley and happy. Hmmm … Time to go volunteer and go help someone. Ya know..

 life gets better when you reach out and help someone :-) 

Have been laxed lately on Monday night Nacho's. Last week we had Pulled pork of course 

(Linda's FAV) from the Grill at legacy point at the lake. She reminded me to take a boring pic of nachos. But they were good. Linda also splurged for dessert. I chose to forgo. Anyhow the Bears were playing Monday night Football. Disaster at the end of course.. 

This Nacho Monday- Linda went rogue and ordered Pizza from Dublin Pub. I just had the chips n salsa. There's always next week :-)  

     

Feeling Happy and Bubbly and re-rejuvenated. Daily meditation is a must for me. Keeps me goin. Praise the Lord and Pass the Amunition… :-----)  

Headed to Taylorville- finally

Just a Wake up.. Yes daughter Lydia will marry her prince tomorrow at 4p.m in Taylorville at the Pillars. So excited. Heading over there tonight to practice and help setup. They are likely already preparing. My table is set... Oh and more coolies yeah I lost the others :-) I need several for my friends.

New position at Memorial. So happy. We make plans and God laughs. I'm right where I'm suppose to be. Trying to button up some things on the Website www.yourbestbuddy.org Would like to start seeing some traffic because my friends are ready to get to work helping Seniors soon.

Thank You to Robin and Steve. These two are my friends that will likely end up claiming me on their taxes next year.; They include me for dinner all the time. Steve is the Grill Master and Robin is the famous indoor prepper/- and well the rest of the food maker. Everything I've had has been very very good. And usually they will pack it to go.... :-) Tons of food and I can tell when I get home its been packed with Love -- Thanks Robin.. Steve too he goes the extra mile. I'm so blessed. :-)

Linda- Garage sale in Twin Lakes-- Have fun girl.. Oh my at least its not too hot. Looking forward to Rocky Horror Picture Show with the Military girls. My fav- girls to go see the Arts with and dinner/ anything is fun with these girls. Good Peeps. Marilyn Sue Rose and of course Linda  :-)

Rose is still hanging on she hasn't taken off running yet- she continues to be a GODSEND helping me with Your Best Buddy. Looking forward to the "Light up the Cemetery" at Wimmer cemetery September 29th. In Auburn , IL . Rose will portray Stella "Fern" Alspaugh Hay. Exciting..
I still cant believe I have a "famous" friend. She is famous, she just doesn't know it.

The countdown for Daughter Lydia's wedding has begun.. Oh my I'm getting excited for her and Zack. Working on the prayer that Becky the officiating will include. Very happy that I get to prepare


8 days and a wakeup for Lydia.. So excited for her. She has blessed me with a few more tasks to help with the wedding, I'm grateful because it helps to stay relevant. I know her Dad will be star of the show. Daddy's girl of course.
My dad was for my wedding too. :-) I wish he was here to see hers. But Grandma Millie will be there to support and represent.

A good Week

Rose Birthday was on Thursday. She did it : )We had breakfast at La Peep.It was my honor.. Rose was happy to celebrate. A good sport as I sang Happy Birthday with no cake or no candles.. LOL

After - lunch with my buddy John C. From the National Guard. Been retired for many years now but 

nice to keep in touch. Lunch was at Long bridge golf course. They have Reuben's :-) They are remodeling or building right now  but I def liked the decor and the setting there for sure. 

Friday was Art Spectacular- 20th Anniversary at Washington Park. 

What a wet n muddy mess. Bu truly worth it. Saturday much of the same until after lunch. 

The artists were grateful and in good spirits anyway. Nice people and It was my pleasure to be able to help them out for those 2 days.

2nd Blog-- I'm on a roll now.

3 days and a wakeup for my friend Rose- Her Birthday is Thursday. 

Sunday-West Side Church today- I should have made the 8:45 service, Instead I gave into my snack attack- Wasabi-soy Kettle Chips potato chips which is no big deal at 8:00 am any day of the week is just fine. The only problem with long weekends and holidays is I allow myself to over indulge. Then again Life is short I'm  gonna live for awhile.

Monday-   Rose here to Help with my website today. We are LIVE.. Yaayyyyyy.. THank You sooo much Rose. I cried. Happy Tears. Sophie came to visit today. What a sweet dog she is and she is a super service dog she is well minded and she knows her commands very well.


Linda and I have decided we are going to search out and  quest for the Best Nachos in town. So far our Favorite are Apple bee's Neighborhood Nacho's. I didn't get the picture of them but I'm pretty sure we will be headed back there for a snack soon enough. Food gets redundant and everyone eats so I'll try to keep upbeat about posting Nachos. It's just food. --
Mondays Nachos are from Smokey Bones- Pulled Pork- Linda's Favorite so far. My fave are Apple bees.


Tuesday- waiting to hear from St. Johns Hosp. Praying and believing God. for the PSA positions there.  Hurry - its so long waiting.
Rose-  1- day and a wakeup for your Birthday as I've had fun reminding you all week -
