So happy for you Ava, Saturday is not that far away !!! Probably feels like it to you, you have been looking forward to this day forever it seems, right ??? I am so glad for you that your payday worked out especially well, both on one day, that's great.

If anyone deserves and has earned her own place, or set any goal you are the one, that's for sure. I don't believe I have met anyone so patient and goal minded and keeping to that goal as you have done.

Want to meet you one of these days. Wishing you much happiness and peace in your own home. All the rest of your goals are sure to work out too.

Take care,
CArol :)

Since its been sitting for three years, I'll have to assess as systems as soon as I get set up. Will flush all the water lines out and
hopefully the ac will be ok too. And of course give the fridge time to cool down. Have to replace batteries too. Anyway, I'm prepared for setbacks, just don't want any and hope the setup goes smoothly. I know you know I'm smiling :D

How wonderful that the RV park is giving you April. They are glad to have you back, I bet. So exciting - you'll be in this weekend? Wow. (And as long as you're on electric, you shouldn't have to rush with the batteries, either, I wouldn't think.)

do have to replace the batteries, even though I'm on shore power, the control panel runs through the batteries and that's why I kept
having issues with my fridge, when my batteries got low the fridge would kick off and everything defrosted. Have to call the tow guy
tonight and see if he's available this weekend. Also called the electric company and the meter is in my name as of tomorrow. All is good.
All the funds are in and I still have a paycheck coming tomorrow and another one the end of the month, getting what I need now so I'll
be set for summer.

:( <-- the face of disappointment
the guy couldn't get it done today and assured me we would do it tomorrow during my break. Have to all him at 9. I've waited this long,
one more day is just a bump in the road. I do however have all my stuff over in the shed with the exception of what I need here for daily
living, clothes, toiletries, tv and laptop, and of course the pets. So.....the last of it will fit in my little car in two loads. I of
course won't do that final move until I make sure the ac is working. Then it will be time to pop a cork. :D

Ava, I'm so sorry things didn't work out the way you had planned. You said you had the gut feeling and you were right. I hope nothing happens to mess up tomorrow.

Good luck with your move north Sheila. I promise next season that I will get out there
to visit. Don't struggle with the propane tank if you have help, I can do mine too but
last night I just didn't have the strength even though they were empty, to get them
out of the living room and into the propane compartment.
