Park Place RV Park
On Saturday, Jan. 3rd I woke up when the boys went out and felt completely rested. I was in bed last night at 9 pm and it took me no time at all to drop off. I woke once, at 3, rolled over and was gone again. Note to self, no more wine for me after 6 pm!
 |
| Good morning! |
Bill was getting his breakfast when I got up at 7 and washed. I didn't have anything on the agenda today, at least nothing scheduled. It was another pretty sky this morning so I was out 3 times trying to capture the changes.
 |
| I tried to choose the best out of 6 to display here. |
 |
| The humidity was 85% this morning so the mountains were barely visible in the misty fog. |
Before we left home in October, we ordered and received cupboard door latches for the Suite. That is one thing in these rv's that keep breaking and we keep replacing. Bill wanted to put some new ones on before we head home in April. Could we find them? Nope!
I love when the cotton ball clouds move in
He left for the field and I did a thorough search. High and low; I knew exactly what I was looking for. It is a small flat box, not in any spot I looked in. I messaged Bill that I had no luck BUT I did find the bag 'from Mrs. Claus'🤶 of socks, slippers and another $1 pouch for paper strips. 🤣
I knew that I had purchased those things!! They were tucked in Mr. Claus's bedroom cupboard and missed. I took Gibbs for his walk and then went to the puzzle to finish those last few pieces. Back home, at 11, I worked on a birthday card only to realize later that I had already made one. Duh!
 |
| Gibbs was no help in finding our missing items, or our minds. |
Do you ever wonder where your mind goes when you lose it? I know we are getting forgetful but somehow we are just never quite prepared for some of the things we both forget. Usually, it's one of us and the other one remembers. Not today! Duh #2!
 |
| Some puzzling was done. Enough to finish the puzzle. |
We had lunch when Bill got home and then searched again. Then......yah, not done yet. I realized that our 2nd youngest granddaughter has a birthday in just a few days and I forgot to get her card ready and sent. Duh #3!
 |
| More clouds moved in Goodbye any chance of sunshine. |
 |
| Still mild, so no complaints. |
When I went looking for it, no where was it to be found. Last winter we bought all the winter cards and put the appropriate $$ inside for grandchildren under 20. I was POSITIVE that I did the same this winter before we left home. After a thorough search, we can't find them either. Duh #4!
 |
| These are the 2 different lights I bought. Sorry, they are upside down. |
Guess I'm going shopping in the morning for cards and sadly, the little one's card will be even later than it would have been. It's scary when we forget and sad when we can't believe that we've forgotten the simplest of things. 😕 I know we're not alone but that doesn't help.
 |
| You'll have to stand on your head for this one too. I know how to fix it, but it isn't working tonight. I removed some of the swirls on the one from yesterday and like it better now. I apologize for the acrobatics you have to perform. 🤭 |
We hung out at home, discouraged 3 or 4 times over but will just take care of things tomorrow. Yesterday, at one of our favourite vendors at Tyson Wells, I picked up 3 packs of lights from their $4 bins. All battery but all useful. Today, I put two of them to use.
 |
| Another pretty Quartzsite sky. |
One in the hall, motion detector light, and one for under the bed. This one was ingenious! I can't remember what I did with the cards, but came up with a great idea here. 😂It is always too dark to see under there with even the big light.
 |
| I get more exercise running in and out for pictures than for anything else I do! |
The other motion detector light will go on the end of the island for when our strip lights finally die and one will go in Bill's overhead bedroom cupboard. I have one on my side and love it. I think another pot light under the sink will work well too.
 |
| Why the colour changed? I'm not sure, it was actually bright pink. My phone does not do sky colours well in any of the available settings. |
Small inexpensive things make us happy and after living in an rv for going on 10 years, we know what will make things easier too. Now just to find something for memory! What cupboard is it in? I can't seem to remember.
 |
| When I thought I was done, this appeared out of my west facing window. |
It is and has been a cloudy day today with a cooler temperature than expected, 63F/16C. Still mild though as there is no wind. For supper, we had leftover chili and a dinner roll. I was quite hungry as I realized I'd only eaten 2 pieces of toast all day. LOL
 |
| Just as good the second night. |
Bill had a new movie starting at 6 so I finished today's post and watched a couple more episodes of Reacher, then Bones, then Gilmore Girls. I like to mix it up sometimes. Ha ha.
 |
| Good night! |
I hope you've enjoyed the day. It is almost warmer outside at 6 pm than it has been all day. Love it!
Thank you for popping by.
