Day 232, Saturday, August 20

We had a bunch of errands to run today in Peoria.  We drove by this wooden carved statue and I had Jim stop to let me take a picture.  We have driven by this corner many times and I had never seen it before.  It is carved into the "stump" of a tree.  It is probably 10 or 12 feet tall.

Day 231, Friday, August 19

Jim left this morning to go to Chicago to watch a ballgame.  The Cardinals were playing the Cubs at Wrigley Field.  He didn't get home until 9:30 tonight.  The Cubs won, but he still had a great time...in the PNC Bank Suite!

Day 230, Thursday, August 18

I love to watch the commericals that Sherwin Williams has been using.  I think it is awesome the way they mold those paint chips into various shapes...Hot Air Balloons in this one!

Day 229, Wednesday, August 17

We went to eat dinner at Logan's tonight.  Logan's is one of our favorite places to go.  We used this coupon for Buy 1, Get 1 FREE!

Day 228, Tuesday, August 16

I have been eating a lot of fruit lately.  I love eating fresh strawberries and rainer cherries.  The cherries are just about to the end of the season.

Day 227, Monday, August 15

I bought this calculator to figure the PointsPlus for Weight Watchers.  I can compute the points for any food that I can get the protein, carbs, fat and fiber from the label.  I hope this will help me keep track of my food intake.  It will "countdown" the number of points that I enter each day.

Day 226, Sunday, August 14

I bought 3 Cricut cartridges at Menard's today.  Thery were on sale for $24.99 each, with a $20 rebate.  I probably wouldn't have bought them if they were more than $4.99!
