A Pretty Quiet Day

Park Place RV Park

On Wednesday, Dec. 3rd we slept in until 6 am. My boys got up and went out for their walk. Gibbs returned and curled up on Bill's side of the bed and slept with me until 6:45. Then he played his hide and seek game, royally messing up the duvet. 💕

Good morning!

Happy hump day!

I had my tea while Bill got ready to go to the field. Their 6 rolls of carpet, huge 100' rolls, had arrived and they were meeting to nail it down today. It was a cold start to the day, 42F/5C, and Bill ran the furnace for a few minutes to warm the Suite up.

Oooh, chocolate cake
for snack.

When he left, we turned it off and I changed Gibbs' sock bandage. This time I added coconut oil to the sore, which doesn't look any worse. At least he can't get at it this way. I didn't walk at 8, my sciatica seems to bother me first thing, but I was fine by 9. Strange.At a few minutes before 9, I walked over for Coffee & Snacks.

Gibbs took me through
the shortcut.

Chocolate cake, apple pie (leftover from the potluck) and Sue's home baked cranberry muffins. It was a large group, 11 or 12 this morning so that was encouraging. Lots of conversations going on. 

This cholla has the most interesting
flowers.

At 10, I wandered back home to Gibbs and worked on a greeting card that Gayle asked for. I had fun making a cabin cruiser picture as her friend had one and it's her birthday. Gibbs and I went for his walk and he took me down to Quail Trail to the shortcut behind the park. Nice lone walk.

More Gamble Quail hanging
out around the food dish.

 I worked on the puzzle after Bill and I had soup and a sandwich for lunch. Back home at 2:30, I finished the card and started writing out Christmas cards to mail. 

Lunch was tomato bisque
and toasted keto bread

Today's hobbies

Supper was a small roast beef in Madame IP, with an onion and last 2 potatoes. 30 minutes cooking and 15 release time and it was perfect. 

He loves 'Goat'.
and I love him and his little looks.

Don't look now but there is
a plane in the kitchen!

The potatoes were a bit overcooked so I shouldn't have cut them in quarters. Oh well, with gravy and mixed vegetables on the side, it was a 'Sunday'-type meal. Yummy!

It seems we'll have a normal sunset
and perhaps a full moon?

Cuddling up on Mom's little
pillow.
'Yes, I see you'

We watched the last of Survivor before cleaning up the pots and rejoiced in who was voted out. No spoilers here! This was a good day!

Yum! This was delicious!
Good night!

Thank you for popping by.

  1. Thinking of your bouts with sciatica, some say that
    taking a good brand of Magnesium at night helps
    a lot. Usually 500 mg a tablet… try 2 .
    Just a suggestion. Trusting for some help for you!

    1. Thank you Linda a. I think you mentioned it before and I totally forgot! I've made a note for myself to pick some up. I'm good to try it!

  2. Maybe google it. Relaxes muscles. We take it every night.

  3. If you have the Vetericyn Plus spray with you for Gibbs use that on his foot. A couple of applications should heal that up quickly since you are also covering it.

  5. It does sound like a good day. I think quiet, let the day unfold days are some of the best.

  6. Tonight will be the last supermoon for 2025, and is called the Cold Moon. It looked pretty full last night but I didn't get any photos.
    Hope Gibb's paw heals quickly. He's being a good boy, leaving it alone.
    Lovely card!
