We're back, we walked all around the fair, got the free stuff that the agencies put out, they got a Saluki dog fan, the SIU mascot is the Saluki, each girl got a fan, we got pencils, a magnet, they got those black rubber bracelet that says Not Even Once, not sure why there, nail files. This is the last day of the fair so the good stuff is gone like combs, toothbrushes, etc. I asked the girls if they wanted to ride the rides and none of them wanted to! They wanted the free goodies and were ready to go home. We then drove around to go to where they had the food set up and people were parked a good mile away, the girls said, "NO!" So we turned away and went to McDonalds, the younger girls played in the play area and my dd1 and I sat and chatted. They were thrilled with their day and that's all I wanted, them to have a good time.
Frugal tonight will be making supper at home with what we have. I'm going to recouperate here, read a few magazines before I set to make supper and hopefully clean out my room.
Hope you all have a lovely holiday, again!
