Coffee, Puzzle, New Friends/Blurkers, Surprise Visit

Park Place RV Park

On Wednesday, Nov. 26th I woke up early again. It was 3:30 and I just couldn't get comfortable enough to drop back off again. Darn! Somehow, around 5:30, I dropped back off until 7:20. I did my stretches while Gibbs played hide and seek.

Good morning!

He noses himself under the covers on Bill's side and waits for me to ask "where's Gibbs?" After I ask 3 times, he squirms his way back out and looks at me. "Here I am!" Such a darn cute moment. There is just no way, me without my phone, to capture it on 'film'. 💖

Another clear sky day.
We're in Quartzsite!

I was up and out the door at 7:45 to meet the ladies for our walk. When Diane was late, Sue and I walked to meet her and that is when my sciatica reared its ugly head again. My right leg felt like numbness was setting in.

We're getting closer and closer.
It's a really nice puzzle.

We made the walk very short and I came inside and did some blocking. After 5 minutes, I was golden again, yay! Strange how it just decides to make an appearance whenever it wants. I must be aggravating it somehow.

Early Happy Hour at our
neighbours.

Kim, Melissa, Lyle, Ken, Bill,
Tom, Deb.
(sorry Lyle about the humming bird feeder)

It was just before 9 when I walked over with my tea for Coffee hour. It's tea hour for me, but no one needs to know that. Ha ha. Sue made homemade cinnamon rolls, oh my goodness! They were delicious! I had a couple of pieces and brought one home for Bill. He's spoiled. 💕

It was a nice surprise to see
Rose and George.

I stayed and worked on the puzzle until noon and took Gibbs for a walk before we met Bill back at home. My leg was still fine for which I was grateful. After our sandwiches, I did a bit of quilling prep for cards and Bill and Gibbs had a wee rest. 

George and his cousin, Dan,
chatting with Tom and Bill.

We walked next door to meet friends first of Tom and Deb's, acquaintances of Ken and Kim and also Canadians from B.C. Always nice to meet Blurkers (blog readers) and put faces to names. Melissa and Lyle seem very nice and we got to get to know them a bit. 😊

Looking to the east,
the pink mountains start closing
out the night.

We were surprised when friends, George and Rose dropped by with his cousin, Dan, for a friendly hello. We all know these two from Lake Havasu and it was great to see them and catch up. We parted ways at 5:30 and Bill grilled sausages on a bun for supper. They were perfect!

They didn't take long to cook
and they were yummy.

Survivor started at 6 and we were just finishing up. Perfect timing. I wonder who will go home tonight. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the U.S. so I've planned my two recipes for the dinner at the clubhouse. It will be nice to be together for that.


This has been a good day, reaching 75F/25C again. Perfect weather! I hope I sleep better tonight.

Our pretty little boy almost
blends into the floor tile.
He needs a hair cut.
Good night!

Thank you for stopping by!

    1. Thank you Maebeme. The SC (grr) was bound to catch up with me sooner or later, I guess. Can't figure if it is the lawn chair sitting, the cooler night air or just inevitable.

  8. Enjoy celebrating the American Thanksgiving. Quiet, foggy and cold here. In fact we may have gotten just a tiny bit more snow today.

    God bless.

    1. Thank you Jackie. It has been busy, I'm getting behind on reading blogs!
      The quiet is nice but the cold, not so much.
