SURE IS GOOD HAVING A HANDYWOMAN AROUND THE HOUSE:))

Remember when you were a kid & put your arms straight out from your sides & ran across the playground.  You were an airplane of course.  And remember how easy it was to bend your arms back, down a bit, & instantly become a jet, flying across the playground twice as fast.  Ya, I remember doing that too.

It was Pizza night at hour house.  Kelly slipped over to the CONGRESS DEPOT MARKETPLACE & brought us back a large Pizza supreme for supper.  We have taken a real liking to these Pizzas & always look forward to them.  Seems the only time we ever have one though is when we have company.  I don’t look forward to picking off the black olives that Kelly likes but she trades me the mushrooms she picks off.  We do kinda work things out most times:))

NOW, THAT IS ONE MIGHTY FINE LOOKING & TASTING PIZZA

  

Despite listing our Motorhome in the RV Auto Trader, Craig’s List, & couple other spots, we have not had what I would call a real favorable response.  No doubt our price is right, but the number of Class A Motorhomes for sale right now would stretch from here to the Moon & back.  It is just not a seller’s market.  Of course our terra cotta walls are not everybody’s cup of tea & no standard generic RV furniture doesn’t help either.  Selling anything is not my cup of tea & I’m finding all this rather stressfully discouraging.  It’s why I have always preferred trading things in.  True, you don’t get as much for your trade, but I’d rather do it that way & have the deal over & done with in a couple hours & quickly return to a normal peace of mind.  I much prefer mental wellness as opposed to money wellness.  I obviously do not have a business oriented mind……………

Was able to get the Sunseeker’s camera cleaned & put together again.  Nice clear image now that the condensation is gone.  Problem I had was getting the camera re-installed in it’s bracket on the back of the rig.  Screws are soooo tiny I could not get them lined up & started despite many, many, tries.  I am all thumbs when it comes to finicky stuff like that.  And, then there is the patience factor.  So, once again, as always, it was Kelly to the rescue.  I briefly explained what had to be done & minutes later the camera was once again securely mounted on the back of the rig, complete with it’s sun shade in place.  Sure is nice having a handywoman around the house.

 

We knew when we first saw the Sunseeker’s layout we would probably have to think about making some changes to that dinette affair in there.  No, we are not going to paint anything, but after trying out the uncomfortable dinette for the past 5 days, we know it has to be carefully removed.  Without the dinette & table affair we do have enough room for a couple comfortable ‘wall hugger’ recliners & a nice table in between.  If I try to do this myself it will end up looking like I tried to do this myself.  Not good!!  So, in this case we will have to seek out someone to have it professionally done. 

CHECKING UNDER THE SEAT CUSHIONS TO SEE WHAT WOULD BE INVOLVED IN SOME RENOVATIONS 

And, for any of you ladies out there unsure of driving your big RV, whatever it may be, Motorhome, 5th Wheel, Travel Trailer etc, be heartened by Cindy’s experience over at RAY AND CINDY'S TRAVELS.  She went, with only a couple lessons, from flat parking lot driving to steep mountain grade driving with a dually Chevy truck & ‘large’ 40’ Montana fifth wheel &…….she survived:))

It was still 56F Wednesday night around 7 p.m. so maybe there is a little hope for some warmer Arizona weather finally headed our way.  Every time I feel a little grumbly I just have to remind myself of the 60 plus cold snowy winters I spent in Canada.  That kind of brings things into perspective right quick.

So, which is it?  Television programming just continues to get worse, or I just continue to get older.  D’ya suppose both those things could be happening at the same time.  Well, one things for sure….television programming just continues to get worse!!

Had we done anything of significance today I would have written about it.  I did manage to get a few backyard bird photos this afternoon.  Although we had planned a desert Jeep rumble, we just never got ourselves organized enough to go.  Hopefully Friday we will get out there & kick ourselves up a little dust…….

FINALLY, THIS GOOD OLD FLORIDA GAL IS GETTING HERSELF SOME REAL WARM ARIZONA SUNSHINE:))

GROANER’S CORNER:))  The patient was lying in bed, still groggy from the effects of the recent operation. His doctor came in, looking very glum.  "I can't be sure what's wrong with you," the doctor said. "I think it's the drinking."  "No problem," the patient said patiently. "I'm sure by tomorrow you'll sober up."
