  • New TicTok

    I have a new TicTok as my old one got hacked. I managed to get control away from the hackers, but now I must start from scratch. Add me here. In addition my Snapchat sent out hello messages. This was an automated message and NOT me trying to talk to people. Thank you for your support in an age of social media being weird.

  • Yes.Fit Award

    Yes.Fit Award

    By Andrea Menzies

    I just won an award for completing a Yes.Fit challenge! It was Pirate Plunder, and I am sure I will love wearing the Pirate shirt that brags I completed a 26 mile journey online. As a long-term Fitbit user I liked counting steps and bike pedals, but disliked finishing the apps normal games. I am not alone, and many users like adding Yes.Fit and other online races where you are chased by other Fitbit users, pirates, werewolves, and thousands of creatures as you count steps, or move the counter to your foot for bike trips. You can even use Google fit on your phone if you don’t have a step counter.

    If you would like to run against me online I post the challenge codes here to my group team Forever Halloween Club:

  • Pokemon Go Meetup Day April 20

    Pokemon Go Meetup Day April 20

    Pokemon Go Meetup Day April 20

    Wow today’s meetup group I went to had over 80 members for events, raids, and raffles in the park! They even had ice cream vans AND taco tables by the football game. One section I was in is for grownup people, but another section is for Pokemon Go fan kids as well. Downtown Richmond nightlife is filled with crime and violence the last few years, and so I need downtown alternatives. Pokemon Go makes a lot more sense in pretty weather like today. I had a bad cold last week, but was better by the weekend. I lost my gym membership, but with weather like today all you need is tennis shoes to work up a sweat. Lucky me my bike still works great for Spring Events.

  • New Episodes TV

    By Andrea Menzies

    Woot and oh la la I do not want to wait for this new season at AMC to be out May 12 of 2024 like most national best selling book fans. Note these books are R rated, and are for the young at heart but not the young in age.

  • Anti Prejudice Post

    By Andrea Menzies

    I am against prejudice in all its forms including racism, sexism, and religious persecution. The troubles in the middle east in the news have made saying this clearly more necessary lately. I had an ex boyfriend who became a narrow minded bigot, and many people falsely thought I agreed with him. It is very narrow minded and sexist to think all women share the politics of their worst ex boyfriend. Religious discrimination is the systematic mistreatment due to religious beliefs of people, and should NOT be tolerated in moderation times.
