Quartzsite is Wet! A Change for Me.

Park Place RV Park

On Friday, Mar. 7th we woke up to what would be another lazy day. We did get the rain in the overnight hours and it didn't seem to drop everything it had in its arsenal. The morning began cooler but mostly wet. Gibbs didn't go far off the mat with his first outing with his Daddy. Did his business and returned inside. He does not like the rain. He did, however, remember how to let Bill dry his feet. 1, 2, 3, and 4 in order and Bill didn't even have to utter a word. 💘

Good morning!
Sometimes, he just wants to sit with us at our laptops.

I did my stretches in bed and after my tea, returned to the bedroom floor for the blocking techniques I've learned. I felt great when I finished those. Bill had taken Gibbs out again so I didn't need to go for a walk with him. 

As you can see, we were quite comfy in our
home.

The rain put a 'damper' (haha) on that for the remainder of the morning anyway. The winds were cool and none of us even cared to go outside. Bill was doing his own thing and after vacuuming the Suite, I sat across the table from him (& Gibbs) and did some needlepoint.

This is the 2nd room of the thrift store.
Much neater than my first visit but
very crammed. The owners are really nice
and doing their best.

On the way home, I drove through a
number of puddles.

Around 10:30, when my boys stretched out in Bill's recliner, I slipped out to the Quartzsite 'Trift' Store. 😂 I parked easily in the small lot since I'd gone soon after their opening. I didn't find much but did pick up a small roll of Mactac (remember that stuff?) to use as backing for a few shadow boxes. Then I drove to Family Dollar and found some plain wrapping paper for the same purpose. It will work for now.

When I was vacuuming, Gibbs went to sit with Bill.
He was still shivering but was calmer while he had the
head set on. Isn't he adorable? 💕

This is the new puzzle.
An easy 1000 piece one.

Bill and I had lunch and I finished off my last 3 pizza slices. We thought the rain was done by then but after I went to the clubhouse to start a new puzzle, Mother Nature had her own plans for the afternoon. It was around 2:30 or so when it poured, and then poured some more. Highly unusual but at least it stopped by 3:30 and I slipped home. I went back to needlepoint and made us each a cup of hot tea. There was a chill in the air but it also smelled quite nice out there!

It started to clear when Gibbs and I went for our walk

At 5, Gibbs indicated to me that the rain was done, the sun was out and it was time for a walk. Well, off we went. Without jinxing anything, this was the best, and first, pain-free day I've had in almost a month. I'm not sure why but I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth. Instead, I'm thanking the good Lord for at least one pleasant day of relief. ❤️ 

Supper was good

For supper we had chicken thighs, potatoes and sweet kale salad. A nice hearty meal. 😊 

Look at those sky clouds

We watched some news and after getting frustrated over that, watched a couple of our programs on tv. Last night we caught up on 9-1-1, Elspeth and Matlock. They were all good. This was a great day, especially for me. We only reached 68F/18C but felt cooler than that. I hope your day was pleasant as well.

Good night!

Thank you for the visit.
