Chilly weather

We had two days of steady rain which is good for my garden plot. Yesterday the sun was out even if we had partly cloudy skies. It was good to get outside and see others enjoying the dry weather.

December 1st (during the rain) we saw a lot of rigs coming in and setting up. No one purposely arrives during rain. Messy and cold setting up!

Anne and I walked around noting all the new arrivals and greeting returning friends. We also made a Walmart run. She finished up her Christmas shopping while I filled my basket with food.

We were back in time for the Wednesday afternoon Margarita hour at the clubhouse. I took a fruit bowl because we're asked to bring something to share. It works out well, lots of food to pick from and dinner is over! Of course most of the food isn't good for you!

As we were just ending this happy hour I noticed the sunset. My phone camera cannot show you how beautiful it was



The colors were so pretty and after two days of rain and a partly sunny day it was a site to see!

Back home we just settled in for an evening of TV, reading and computer time. I'm still having trouble with my left shoulder blade so I'm trying not to sit in front of my computer to much....but I'm addicted to the machine!

We slept until 0800 this morning! these cold nights are great for sleeping. When I got up I turned on the hot water and the furnace. I woke Jim and once he was up I made some blueberry muffins for breakfast.

Now I'm doing laundry, not sure what else we'll do today. Hope your day is a good one and stay warm!

Teresa and Trent

Last summer we met a lovely Canadian couple who hopes to join us RV'ers on the road. For now they still live in the cold north and I think they are jealous! I'm sure they sent this cold rainy weather to spoil our sunny, relaxing days.... :)

Trent and Teresa please, PLEASE keep the cold weather up north where it belongs!

Today we had another rainy, chilly day. I was up around 0715 this morning. I had an appointment at the VA center for blood work. Since they always test me for diabetes (runs in the family) I had to fast. No coffee to start my day! Yuck! We were there for the 0830 bloodletting, then headed back home.

I made myself some coffee and made biscuits for our breakfast. Jim had sausage gravy for his. Having the oven on helped heat the house and it sure made it smell good.

I needed to mail a package so we went to the post office and boy were they busy! If you have packages to mail out for Christmas do it now. After that chore was done we headed over to Barnes and Nobles to while away some time. We like to read magazines and I like to peruse the cookbooks.

Back home I watched my soaps. Anne and Scotty went to Mexico today and picked up some tequila for us so I went next door to swap our money for the booze. We got to talking about dinner and we decided we'd eat my Spanish rice at their house with some corn muffins. We ladies had a glass of wine. After dinner we sat around and chatted for awhile. Home by 1900 to watch President Obama.

Well Jim watched and listened while I took a shower. We watched NCIS and now I'm watching Chopped on the Food Network

We did have a pretty sunset tonight. We haven't seen the sun for two days and our forecast is for sunny skies tomorrow.
