Goooooood Morning everybody! LOL

Dang it's Saturday morning and I'm sitting here ready for work! Blech Kelly is out of the shower, wrapped up in her beach towel and standing out on the back porch. Dummy kid. It's cool enough out there I wouldn't be going out there fresh out of the shower. ?

Well I'm calling Monday morning to see if I can get in to see the Doc for my BP. Called yesterday but they couldn't wiggle me in. Get that checked, on meds to get it down and I will be putting in my app to the railroad. Tooot Toot! Good money and benefits there. I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed and say little prayers every day. Cause I sure know my nerves are shot working in the sweat shop.

I so enjoyed the day off yesterday! The only dang thing I did here in the house is the dishes and there weren't many of them to do cause Kelly did a batch up the other night. But yesterday really did seem like a honest to goodness day off. Did a tiny bit of shopping. Bought one of those air pumps that ya plug into the cigarette lighter, now I can fill my own bike tire with out worrying. And I bought a new cooler. One of the 'extreme' coolers. I got it for $32 and I also bought a small shoulder carry cooler that says it keeps ice for 48hrs. Then during the afternoon we paid a couple of bills then ate Chinese, yum. We quick ran home grabbed Shade then off to do a little more shopping. LOL Kelly went to the Natural Foods store, Shade and I went to PetsMart. Oh Shade was so excited. Got puppy treats and a couple more toys. Like she really, really needed them! HA! It was a good lazy.

Ok Kelly just asked me if I was ready to go. Dang!!!

Hope everyone has a great day and stays safe.

Love to all

The Amazon job, well, 1000 of them or so, was advertised in workamper.com for several months, large advertisements. The temporary help agency placed the ads and has a great website with video and everything. For three months of working at least a 40/hr/week shift, standing on your feet on a concrete floor, helping to fill orders in their huge, automated warehouse, they provide site, hookups, shuttle to and from work, get-togethers, the possibility of some overtime, direct deposit, and an excellent salary, paid weekly. Many people who worked there last year have written about their experiences in workamper forums so that others of us know exactly what to expect. It will be hard work, but worth it. The difficult part will be spending not only Halloween, but Thanksgiving as well as my birthday and Christmas there. Oh well, I'm a big kid.

Here's the website if anyone is interested. Last I heard, they still need people for their holiday season.http://www.sekjobs.com

Yeehaw,...it's Saturday morning1 I'd be in a cafeteria full of yakking kids by now if it were a weekday. At our school all kids get off bus and go right to cafeteria for optional b'fast, then the bell rings at 8 a.m. and they go to their classrooms or homerooms if they are 7-12. I'm one of the early a.m. monitors,.... ech! but it does give me a chance to visit informally with the kids with less structure. No matter what, i still prefer the high school age kids.

so today,.... leisurly b'fast, bacon eggs, and yeppers,... coffee! That's done so now i got to get busy and clean the washer's intake screen and then do laundry. Will have to make a run to the dump with garbage today too. I no longer pay to have it picked up,... i can get away with one bag a week, so a trip to the dump once a month works. Of course that's more often in the dead heat of summer, but 10 months of the year once a month is fine. We don't get much really hot weather up here.

Then later this afternoon I am going to hit the recliner and watch a movie. My netflix has been getting dusty,.... gotta get these turned around and back in.

Have a great weekend gals!

Good morning everyone. Barb, sounds like you are looking forward and making plans already and you are still in PA! You go girl! As to me and my jeep...nope, I still haven't gotten the new tabs in order to be able to tow it. I have the part number from Blue Ox, but haven't contacted the dealer that put the baseplate on to get the tabs and new wires and cables. (Do I know how to procrastinate or what?????) I did take the MH in yesterday for an oil change and "minor" repairs...like reattaching the rear camera monitor and fix the dash AC that quit working just south of home and a few other little odds and ends. I do love driving this MH. It is just a lot of fun being way up high and having a commanding view of the road and it does handle nicely. However, to answer your question Barb, no I probably won't be towing the jeep up to PA. If I'm lucky, I"ll have a new front tire for my bicycle by then and will take it along instead.

Echo, sounds like you have picked up some camping gear? Do ya'll have a weekend planned sometime soon here? I sure hope you are able to get in to see the doc and get that bp under control...that is important. Good luck on the train job...that sounds like it would be fun!

Chris, get some gel inserts for your shoes! Will they let ya bring in a special mat to stand on while ya work? I know they make some that are supposed to help.

Hope everyone has a great day. I've got the weekend "stuff" to do...you know, all the stuff that ya don't get done all week cause you are busy working your fulltime job!!!!

good morning to everyone
so glad its saturday, just need to relax and do a few extra things leisurely, by that I
mean do it but not bust my butt trying to get it done quickly. I'm planning on cleaning
out the car and putting the panel back on my door, fixing the window is going to have
to wait so I will at least be able to open and close the other windows but my drivers
window will just have to stay shut until I get the new piece. Grocery store today and
of course pay my bills as it was payday.
Have a good day in whatever you do and be safe

Good Morning,
Have my coffee and catching up with everyone. Barb, thanks for the good wishes for Cindy, her surgery is the 25th. Wish I could do it for her. I have been busy with yard work since the weather has cooled, but still need Cutters. It feels like a soup in the crockpot day, crusty bread and homemade applebutter. I made myself hungry. lol Everyone have a great day.

Gee, I made it here and it's still morning......I'm better today.....but still am going to take it easy......Ernie just left for the run to the store.....it's my day to cook......then this afternoon will teach Donna a crochet stitch for her to make an afghan for the new grandbaby......am taking your advise, Barb, and remembering that we are retired...... Okay, back to my coffee....maybe I'll watch some of the Rider Cup Golf.....it's right down the road from us, but who can afford the tickets......

Good morning all. Slept in a little this morning. Am having to get used to all my time being my own again. Am starting to work on our Texas GTG. Lining up a van for us all to go sightseeing, get some little for little prizes for something to be decided yet, etc. Gonna make a new cover for my sofa. I made one in black thinking it wouldn't show dog hair. Well, it doesn't BUT it shows EVERYTHING else. Gonna make one that matches my dinette cover. Took the dogs for a long, leisurely walk down by the river this morning.

Echo, sure hope you get your railroad job. I really understand working at something or for someone you don't like. Not good for the blood pressure.

The nights and mornings have cooled off and I'm lovin' it.

All of you have a wonderful weekend.

Good Morning All!! Just finished late breakfast (for me) and shower, and now I'm just catching up on the news. Thought I'd grab a cuppa coffee with ya'll! It's cooler here this a.m.....72 degrees. Carolyn (Sunshinecruiser) has been on the road traveling and training for about a month. She has a half-day class this morning to teach. If all goes well she'll be coming to the house this afternoon for what may be our last swim of the season. Yesterday the pool was 76 degrees.....yet it didn't stop me from enjoying it for awhile! Who knows what we might find to celebrate while in the pool and sun! I hope she can make it. If not, don't what the afternoon may bring for me. Still seems strange to not have to cram all into the weekend since I can spread it throughout the week. My mind hasn't yet totally accepted that because I sat this morning thinking about what all needed to be done today! I do need to get busy and get some bills paid. Happy weekend to all of you! Enjoyed the coffee.........

It's still morning, ! Late, late morning. DH was here before I had my first cup of coffee. He left home @ 3 AM so he was here bright & early. We'll be heading home in the AM. My vacation is over, but not forgotten! Thanks for all you input on which rigs you like. I am seriously researching them, & see my own rig in my future!
Hope you all have a wonderful day!
