DATENIGHT/MOVIENIGHT



I am leisurely spending my time at the Hallock Library while I write this.
I know it has been quite some time since I last informed on here, but my mind it is racing,
"what do I post about??"
The main project in my schedule has been remodeling the upstairs first two rooms and sewing curtains for the closets. I will plan to take a picture of the status and show the before and after pictures. The rooms are now a soft pinkish cream with brown edging instead of green.
Mom and Dad are going out on their date night tonight, leaving us to our movienight!
Each Thursday night we gleefully wave goodbye to Mom and Dad. Rush to the kitchen and pop the popcorn, pass out dishes, choose a movie, and pass out a designated amount of fake money to each individual. The food is marked with a certain price, and special toppings cost about a dollar.
All of the money exchange is used with fake money of course.
Then, about 3 weeks ago, I started something dramatically different!
With a plan in mind, I made a side shoppig trip to a selection of stores and purchase candy in bulk.
When I returned home, the bags were ripped open by me (oh! it smelled so good!!) and each candy was individually marked with a VERY reasonable price.
On the next datenight, I set up a candy shoppe. I was unsure if my fellow companions would appreciate using real money, note: their money.
But it was a hit! They love it and made dire requests for it again!
So here is the picture I have to share with you.
