Another Cloudy Wednesday
Posted: Wed Jul 31, 2013 6:55 amGood Morning everyone,
Seems like the title of Morning Coffee is always weather related these days and most either cloudy, cool or wet.
I was hoping it wouldn't rain much today as I want to continue working in my TT. I've got just about everything back in from my other TT, but am missing a couple of things the which of I will find eventually. No big deal. Little TV remote box I built is one of them, but since no TV in there right now, no problem. But it BUGS me
Went down to Camping World yesterday and picked up a few things. Small clear tray to use as a spice and kitchen match storage container, some hooks with straps to wrap around what ever I decide, thinking maybe putting them in the storage area to hang clothesline and that kind of stuff on the walls. Also got a step cover for outside step, a Pop A Napkin holder, and some really pretty colored heavy plastic glasses that they had on special. Wish I had gotten about three more. The stopped by the Home Depot down there and got a piece of lumber to make a shelf in one cupboard with and a towel holder for the bathroom. So with that loot in my possession, I headed for home.
Got a few thing done in the TT after I got back here. Put up the Pop A Napkin holder under cabinet over dinette, the towel bar in bathroom after trimming it back just a little, the paper towel holder in kitchen and nixed the toilet paper holder for now. Really no place to put it in there. So decided that since vanity is right there, why not just set the TP roll on the shelf. Very handy. Was going to put the holder on the inside of the vanity door, but the wood in the door is not that thick and afraid screws would come through. Might do it yet as I am toying around an idea with glue perhaps although I would rather it be removable.
So today, hoping to get in that storage area and get it organized the way I want it and also make and install the shelf in the cupboard for my glasses etc. Make up the bed, hang up a couple of things and should be all done inside for now. Outside needs a bath from the trip home in the quick rain shower that we drove through. Got it all dirty.'
Am watching the campsites at my favorite State Park and see there are a couple of possibilities open. Going to check again today and if so, will book one for next Monday if the dates are open for what I want. Since I am going ot Mackinaw City on Saturday, would rather have a day between the two for last minute details.
Got some sad news from a friend in my emails. There is a little ice cream shop down the road a couple of miles from here, that I frequent. NO, it's not always for ice cream
She has a small food menu and I go for supper too. Have become friends with the couple who own it, so go chat with her for a couple of hours sometimes. Well, found out that her husband died of a massive heart attack yesterday 
She's roughly 40 so they are still a young couple per say. Have 4 kids and finances are very tight for them. Paying down buying this ice cream shop although he works elsewhere as well. Feel so sorry for her as this is the last thing she needed. But this same friend who gave me this news also wrote to tell me that she and hubby are no grandparents again. Her daughter gave birth to a healthy 8 pound baby boy yesterday. So one life sniffed out and another one born
My friend who bought the new TT this spring, will be leaving today with her long anticipated trip west with two friends. I wish them a sage and fun trip. Have a wonderful day everyone.

Ava, hard to believe another school year is about to start--where does time go?
Then I pull into the bay and they have the parts to start installing the steering stabilizer and they announce bed arrives on Thurs. Satellite parts arrived as well. However, the replacement doors for refer greater wont arrive for 6 weeks. Will have them shipped to TX. We could have everything completed by Fri or Sat and headed home via the Natchez Parkway. I truly wish I would have been able to gtg with our sisters up in this area. I really love the south and this is just the first of many to come trips to see and experience more. 
PS..I aways copy my post before hitting submit...don't lose them now lol
