A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Good morning - so glad to see you back. Yes I know its been awhile but we just got back on line yesterday afternoon. Finally got the satellite dish installed on the roof of the house. Could no longer pick up a signal from the motorhome as too many leaves on the trees, and weather has been to bad - UGLY! Will have to spend time today catching up with everyone. (Yesterday caught up on all the bills etc. - thinking about going back to paper and pencil - at least it is there. when you want it)
Today we are not supposed to get rain! Heres the view off the back deck.

The mist is burning off quickly.
Good day to all.

Love the view! Without the rain...we would not see so much GREEN.......

It is a lovely cool morning here 58 when I took Charley out around 6:30. What's with the phase of the moon, I've been waking up almost every two hours the last couple of nights and so has my neighbor.
Zeee and I seem to be in a dog clean up mode. So far though other than finally getting up at four to find Winnie had missed her paper and having to clean up a mess before dawn... it's going better than yesterday morning. I kept thinking it was Friday and missed a nine o'clock appointment.
Carol glad you finally got connected!

good morning ladies
what a beautiful view Carol, I'd be sitting with binoculars in hand scouting the
trees for birds.
Its gonna be another hot one today so will get my yard stuff done early and
close of the rv so the ac can do its thing. Then, I need to run to the library
to use the computer so I can print off a job application and stop by Home
Depot and pick up a few pieces to get the dripper system going on my flowers.
After that I'll sit and vegetate under the ac.
Have a great day

Morning....yep, sure did rain here last night... The free standing screen room had water in the top....yuck!! anyways, now my broom is standing up on the picnic table helping to drain it.....I hear chain saws and motors, so am assuming some limbs or trees are down in the CG.....still in my PJs, so will check it out later.....But, the sun is out and the weather man says it is to be warm and dry today....

Okay, got to get ready to go do some shopping.....usual stuff we do on payday....

Have a good one, All!!!

Waiting for the rainy season to start here. May is the hot month. June begins the rain. Last night big thunder in surrounding area.
DGD is on a bit of a terror this morning. DD late getting out to work. The morning will no doubt be interesting! Byeee

Off I go to Google to check on surge protectors.

Soos, how's your blood pressure? Last time I was dizzy, I was having a stroke (age 40 - bp of 220/180). I now take 'dizzy' very seriously...

Here's a pic of an RV surge protector (portable). For $200+, what can be done to keep them from walking away?
There are also ones that are hard-wired (slightly cheaper). And much cheaper ones that have about half the joule (500+) rating as this expensive one (1000+), and it (the cheaper one) doesn't reset automatically after a 'fault', and doesn't work for low voltage, only high.

It is wonderful sunny day.
I have internet today, as we are at homeschool co-op classes.

Yesterday I had a wonderful day, with my mom, sister and aunts in Seattle. We...Rode "The Duck". It is a converted WW2 vehicle, that takes you on a tour through Seattle via land and water.

Then it was back home, for a BBQ with friends. Then back to the campground. I will try and get a picture of our site. We are camping with friends that fulltime..so we are back to back. We will be here for the week.

Oh Soos, I know how feeling dizzy can panic you. Several years ago I came down with an inner ear infection and was down for almost a month. Being dizzy made me sick to my stomach and couldn't even keep water down. They kept trying antibiotics which did nothing. Finally a doctor gave me some pills JUST for the dizziness and I slowly got better. Can't remember what the med was but it was something they also give to people with migraines. I carried those pills with me everywhere for almost a year JUST IN CASE.

I bought the lock thingy for my surge protector - they're expensive and easy to steal. I chose the one that wasn't hardwired because IF you get hit it burns out the surge protector rather than your rig and would then need to be replaced. Still cheaper than the repair bill I had when I didn't have one.
