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

What a beautiful Thursday morning in Kerrville. Was supposed to get really cold, about 31 and it didn't! This morning it was only about 36. It will be another clear, cloudless day. My list for today includes grocery shopping; getting a few 'needs' from WallyWorld; putting my license tag on the car; washing my car; doing a load of laundry; and tearing down the rig for tomorrow's travel day. Told Karen and Sharon that I would do dinner tonight so will get that ready for a fun dinner. Will be headed to Schertz in the morning along with Karen and Sharon. Be glad to see some more of the sistahs over there.

Got up early and had my shower and got all ready for my day. So come on sunshine. Having French Vanilla coffee after the orange that I peeled. So come on in and enjoy the coffee, sun and friendship.

Good morning all, it is cool and cloudy here, even got a tiny bit of rain overnight! I'm sharing a bowl of oat bran with Winnie, one of her favs.
I'm thinking of you this morning Kathleen and hope your feeling ok after the dentist visit. I know you are glad to have the tooth out and not have to worry about doing it later. Also I hope you are all finished packing up and ready to roll. Sounds as though Soos has lots of good weather to share and is having a great time in the sun, well at least most of the time. Soos I keep a bit of mad money in my van for emergencies, you just have to remember where you hide it!
My mouth is finally feeling better after I threw out the #&$* mouthwash they told me to use, it made my whole entire mouth & tongue sore. Of course it was the generic brand with lord knows what in it, the name brand needed to be ordered which would have taken a couple of days...a friend used to be a pharmaceutical rep and saw all recall rates on the generic stuff which our wonderful system has decided is good enough for the masses. I bought some goldenseal powder at the Coop and using that to brush with, tastes awful but my mouth is much better. The part that really ticked me off was when I called the dentist to say I thought the mouthwash was making sores in my mouth they said, oh you don't need it now...you would think they would have said use for X number of days. Since it had 1 refill I figured I was to use it longer than a week. Well gees I guess I needed to get that out sorry for ranting so early in the morning. I did have a wonderful massage yesterday! And received a really cute video of my friends baby taking his first steps with a huge smile on his face.
Birdie hope you all enjoy Schertz.

Good Morning early birds and late birds... sounds like you are having a mini caravan toward a gtg Birdie... Wow Soos that is the air port that I drove my old MH to so John and Pete could drive it back... once you get it figured out you are ready to leave... but you made it great for you... if you had your Tom Tom you could have just put your sons address in it and it would program from where you were... the satellite picks up where you are at...
Oh BJ so sorry for the tooth problems... mine are better after I lost two days... but that is fine will leave Sat or Sun and be fine...
My son is doing good now he has to go to cardiac rehab and cannot go back to work until Dec 6... long time... and he had used all of his sick time earlier this year when he was sick... just think he has never used his sick time... he simply would go in and forget what ever ailment was bothering him and work... now that is a different story...
Now that I can carry things again I will be done with Bright Beauty this afternoon... Will get the license plate, tag and drivers license this morning... when that was on my list it did not get done my face was way to swollen to do that on Tuesday... Shadow was a pain last night he slept in his kennel in the kitchen and was up at 6am throwing his blanket and chasing back and forth... silly dog...
We have clouds and a cool day here... coffee is good am finishing the rest of the Star Bucks...
Have a safe travel day and enjoy
Kathleen

Soos, I'd be nervous without my purse too. But police are usually pretty gracious when things like that happen and will just ask you to either bring ID to a local precinct when you get home or let it go altogether.

Whenever I've moved to a new area (and I've done a fair amount of that in my life) I fill the gas tank up, pack a lunch, and then head out on the roads just to see where they'll take me. As long as I've got gas I don't feel worried. Think of getting lost as an adventure and a way to see new sights. It's all in how you look at it. I do the same thing when I'm traveling, too. As long as I know the general direction I want to go and have enough gas I just let the roads take me. I did that coming home this summer from the NW. Granted, there are a couple of main freeways that'll get me from north to south pretty easily, but knowing that I'll be okay really gives me the freedom to enjoy the scenery.

Soos, I wish for you some patience for yourself to enjoy being somewhere unfamiliar to you. Getting uptight about it takes all the fun out of the change of pace and scenery. And I'm going to pray that you look for ways to laugh at your circumstances instead of allowing them to raise your blood pressure (speaking as a high BP sufferer also).

Hang in there. Enjoy the weather, your family, and the fact that you're not stuck in a job you didn't like. It certainly could be worse.

Relax & enjoy the perfect sun-shiny day today, Soos. I hate driving to the Orlando Airport too. I suck-up and pay the tolls, but still worry about making the wrong turn in downtown...have done that.

Not much happening here today. Had an early haircut appt., did some grocery shopping after. There's always cleaning, etc. that I could do in the house, or yard trimming....but I'm in the middle of a good book, so...

My dd says the weather forecast is for cold & rain in TN next week where we'll be. Maybe it'll get cold enough to snow instead of rain, so we can at least play in it. It'll be fun anyway.

Wish I knew what "Schertz" is, so I'd know what I'm missing.

Praying for good news on job searches, lost cat, etc.

Morning!
Poured rain most of the night but seems clearer this AM. I don't think it's to last long, tho. The mountain passes are getting hammered. Skiers are happy. Later with week we are to get below freezing at night.

Yesterday I went back to my pharmacy to get my meds that I forgot the day before. While in line I saw they were running a special on flu shots, 19.99. The gal in front of me was signing up and we got to talking and I decided to check into it. I've had only one flu shot in my life and that was 45 yrs ago and it made me and my siblings so sick I have never gotten another one. I shared this with the pharmacist and she assured me that it's much different now. The deal breaker would be if my insurance wouldn't pay for it. She called and they pay 100%, so I went ahead. My shoulder is pretty sore, hard to sleep, but she warned me about that. Said the serum would take 2 wks to kick in. So we'll see how it goes.

Nothing planned for today. Guess i'll do some reading.
Looking forward to reading about your travel south, Kathleen. Bet you are excited.
Sarah, saw a commercial on TV yesterday about the recall on the hip replacements!
Carol, glad you made it to LV safely. Enjoy your time with the family.
Looks like some of the sistahs are haveing a GTG near Kerrville. Pictures required!
Awaiting news on AVa's driving job and also Barbie's lost kitty.

Soos, after all your trials and tribulations you will be able to handle anything.

Hello Sistahs!

It's late enought that I wasn't gonna post in here but after reading and laughing at Soos misadventure going to and from the airport? I just had to post. I wasn't laughing in meanness Soos, but I was laughing in sympathy. I have so been there done that. I did it in Atlanta GA then had to drive to a satellite military base and back to the airport. What fun! Laura has the right of it. It's scary without your purse but learning to chillax is empowering. When I get in those situations if I don't catch myself first I get angry and frustrated so then I cry. Catching myself first I don't give a crap about anyone or anything, I pull over and do some deep breathing. As to the sign that said NO PARKING? Bah you weren't gonna "park". What you were gonna be doing is what they call "STANDING". Parking, you turn off the vehicle and walk away from it leaving it there. Standing is when you stay with the vehicle, whether it's on or off. Just think in a couple of months you will come to know the roads down there too and you'll be buzzing all over the place. Pick yourself up a area/county map and stash it in your glovebox, it will make ya feel better and help ya out too.

It was simply a beautiful day here today. Nice sun shine, wispy cloud cover, baby breezes couldn't really ask for better for November. Loved every minute of it. Hope everyone had great day today. Hope you spent time on yourself doing what you wanted or needed.

Love to everyone
