Whew! It’s been a wee bit hectic

 So much has happened in the past month. We’re pretty much settled in at the Country Feed Store. Not sure if I’ve mentioned but we living on site at Christy and Rik’s business.  It’s a gated compound so we’re locked in every night!  😄

There are critters here. Pigs, sheep, rabbits (they just had babies, so cute!) and chickens.

Some of the chickens are beautiful and the roosters can’t tell time. Thankfully they aren’t loud, but they crow almost 24 hours a day! 

Thanksgiving was spent here with Christy and Rik. Smoked turkey, ribs, mashed potatoes and gravy, Mac and cheese, a squash dish, green bean casserole, rolls, cranberry sauces, sweet potatoes and I’m sure I’ve forgotten something.  All this for five people.  No one left the table hungry! Oh, collard greens too. And pecan pie for dessert (which we had on Friday).   Sonsearae stopped by for a visit.  

We’ve had dinner with Sonsearae and Chris the last two Sundays.  Good food and wonderful times visiting with them

I think our children are trying to fatten us up!

It’s citrus season and the Feed Store customers have been bringing satsumas and Meyer lemons.  Also sweet potatoes. Had a few of those...yummy.

Boo is feeling his age.  More and more he barks at every little thing. His cataracts are the problem as I don’t think he can see all that well.

Matter of fact, Jim and I are feeling our age.  My arm is a whole lot better and we both think it’s joint pain.  I stopped using it as much as possible. Switching from t shirts to camp shirts. Pulling a shirt off was very painful. No more difficulty with the gallbladder. Every now and then I’m uncomfortable but it’s usually from eating something I shouldn’t have.  Still need to register with the VA.

Jim is about the same. One shoulder is giving him fits.  But his knees are getting worse.  He also needs to find a doctor or two or three....

As with any move, you discover problems that need to be fixed.  We're getting them done as we can.  There is a mobile RV repair company and they'll get the AC's fixed on the rig.  Or truck decided to catch a cold.  coughing and sputtering but Jim got a replacement part and that should be taken care of this week

Diesel runs around $2.23-$2.29 a gallon.  

As November comes to an we are getting a taste of winter.  It's 44 degrees outside with a low of 31 forecasted.

All is right in our world
