A Relaxing Day

Park Place RV Park

On Friday, Dec. 20^th it was at the top of the 7^th hour when I got up and moving. Waiting only a few minutes, I was dressed for my walk. Yesterday’s steps, in Mexico, were a bit pathetic, not meeting my goal so I was anxious to get out and stretch my legs. It was a pleasant enough 45F/7C but I had to return for my windbreaker.

Good morning!

The sky was mostly clear but there were some low-riding clouds on the eastern horizon to start the day. I enjoyed the walk and I still beat the sun rise. Bill and Duncan left for the flying field and Gibbs and I sat together to have my tea and play my games. He’s a big help with drinking my tea (if I’m not looking) but not so much with the word games. 😊

I better continue with this over the next day or two
so I can start the Christmas one!

Then I had my shower and when my hair was sufficiently dry (it doesn’t take long!) Gibbs and I went for his walk. He walks pretty good these days, mostly calling the shots which way we go. He’s in charge on these walks. ♥ Back home, I nipped over to the clubhouse with a poinsettia for Bette. She was on duty today again and we wanted to thank her for her attentiveness to Gibbs.

down Coyote Rd.

I worked on the puzzle until noon and got a few pieces in. Not sure if it will done on time for me to start Sue’s Christmas suggestion but I’m trying! There is just too much other interesting stuff going on. OR……the weather is too nice and I want to be outside instead. Bill and I had our lunch and I put a skort and summer top on and sat in my gravity chair in the sun on Walt’s site.

This was one of our purchases in
Mexico yesterday.
Canadians should recognize this as Ontario,
our home province.
It's a metal sign for our Suite to
replace the wood one that is cracking.

I managed to finish my Michael Connelly book – finally! Harry Bosch made me proud, as usual. 😊 I skipped the bike ride, by now it was 78F/25C and plenty warm. I still have to work at biking, until I’m used to it, so didn’t want to be uncomfortable. I do have that choice. Ha ha. The other day, I borrowed Walt’s step ladder and washed the east-facing windows in the afternoon so today, did the same on the west-facing side in the morning. Now we can see out again. One day, I’ll time it right to get the big back window too.

When Bill was getting his hair cut, I purchased
this chenille blanket to use as an outdoor table cloth.
Love the colours.

We joined Patty and Duncan for H.H. on their patio and then came home around 5 for supper. I had taken Gibbs out for his afternoon walk before Happy Hour so he didn’t want to go too far in the heat either. Tomorrow, he gets a groom so will feel cooler without his furry coat. ♥ We had toasted western/omelettes for supper and they were good, good, good, good, gooooood! 😊 (if any of you watch the ventriloquist, Jeff Dunham, one of his puppets – Peanut – says that) He’s my favourite.

Before supper, I nipped down the street
towards the Arco to capture the sunset
but I missed it.

I found the keto bread at Sam’s Club yesterday in a pack of two so was just thrilled about that! It isn’t the seeded variety but it feels fresh and only 1 total gram of carbs.

Quick and easy, these were filling.

We cleaned up the dishes and although Sue had a fire going tonight over at the pit, we opted to just stay put. Unless, I choose to walk over after I finish here. Bill finished a blog post tonight so you can check it out here to see what he’s been up to in his world.

Now that he has posted,
I can share this great picture of him
that Jim took of the Fantasy. 💓
Good night!

This was a quiet but nice day. Thank you for your visit.
