The Friday Five Good Things

Five good things that happened this week.

1. Made waffles with almond flour and had breakfast for supper. The waffles were pretty good.

2. Finally got to use the Outback restaurant gift card. Every time we went, the restaurant had either closed the location or the wait time was over an hour.

3. We survived the heavy downpours from Tropical Storm Florence. Other areas around us weren't so lucky.

4. I decided I would participate in Inktober. I found an empty, small, Strathmore Visual Journal to use.

5. I helped a friend with a computer problem, and she called me her hero

How was your week?

  2. I saw the Inktober prompts on another blog and thought of you. I was going to send you the link, but forgot in my haste to try playing catch-up. Glad you know about it.

    I was telling my foodie friend Sally when we went to lunch yesterday that I had two friends, RO and Sandra, who had checked in with me to let me know they are OK. I said now all I have to worry about are Erika, Corrine, and CJ. Glad you let us know you are OK. That makes me feel much better. I've been so worried since I saw the path the rain took.

    1. Thank you, Jo. I started the FFGT to help me not focus on the negative things that sometimes happen. Seeing positive is so much better.

  5. I've eaten at Outback a few times, always had a steak, and always enjoyed it. Now I'm hungry ;)

    They keep saying we'll get rain, but we rarely get much. Autumn should bring more. We're much too far inland to get anything from Florence.

    Ink sounds intimidating lol I look forward to your creations :)

    1. this go around I had the filet mignon with a lobster tail. I also like their ribs

      Inktober rules are really simple. Just draw something with ink. Any tool that uses ink: a ballpoint pen, Sharpie marker, Pigma pen, dip pen.You don't have to follow the prompts if you don't want to.
