Thursday 10-31-24 Happy Halloween & Thursday Night Football

 

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween to everyone. Did you have any trick or treaters? We didn't have any at all. This is the third year in a row. During my dances this week the dancers talked about getting about 50 trick or treaters. 

We started the day out by going to town to mail a package at the post office. Then we checked our mail at the UPS Store. Afterwards we went to Walmart to get some candy for Halloween and some groceries we were low on. Then we went home.

 

Doing errands

When we got home home Larry put in an online grocery order from Walmart. Our groceries were delivered to the front door a little after 2:00.

I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Spider Adventure of 20 games. It took me 3 hours, 2 minutes and 28 seconds, which put me in 12th place in my group. Then I moved onto playing Angry Birds.

I worked out with the Synth Riders for 45 minutes. 

I played five games of pinball, which were Halloween, Men In Black, Star Wars, Tales of the Arabian Nights and Whitewater. Men in Black is a new game Larry installed in both 2D and VR. It's a Marty game. Larry played it and wasn't impressed, he normally loves games developed by Marty. It was very hard to get the ramps. I played it and did very well. I entered my initials as the #1 high score. I'm not sure if I like it or not, I'll have to play it for a bit. I didn't get a new high score in Halloween. The other three were chosen by the Random button on the cabinet. I hadn't played Whitewater in a very long time and had fun playing it.

I worked on my diamond painting of the colorful eye. I'll be finished tomorrow.

While just hanging around the house my Garmin watch band broke. I tried to replace it with other ones I have but they broke just as bad. It was weird because I never wore them. I guess the material, that the bands were made of most of gotten brittle. I moaned about it so Larry ordered me more bands. He ended up ordering the same bands. Not too many other options for my garmin. They should be here tomorrow. I figured out how I could wear the watch by using a bread tie. It works great.   

In the evening we watched Thursday Night Football on Amazon. We hadn't watched football in many years, Larry didn't want to watch a movie because we may get kids for Halloween. We enjoyed watching the game. When Larry went to bed I watched the Guardians of the Galaxy and continued watching the first season of Whitstable Pearl. I ended up doing 17,000 steps, which put me in 1st place in my group.
