Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.
As tired as I have been lately I’m having trouble staying
asleep even after using the Sleepy Time
Tea before going to bed. The weird thing is that I’m still getting up early
in the morning but really starting to feel exhausted by the middle of the
afternoon. This morning we were up before 8:00 and as we were having breakfast
it was nice seeing the sun shining brightly in the sky. Even though there was
only the slightest breeze the temperature was just above the zero mark so there
weren’t too many people walking around outside.

Kathy has been having an issue with her laptop lately where
it just suddenly develops pixilated streaks on the screen. Since she normally
leaves it turned on overnight but just lowers the lid someone suggested turning
it off overnight and leave the lid up. When Kathy went to turn it on this
morning you could hear the computer running but the screen was totally blank.
Kathy is now having to use our backup laptop until we can get her computer
fixed.

| Tyler about to score his goal. |
Even though we had an early start to the day we had less time
to spend at the computers because we had to head to the New
Belle River Arena to
watch our grandson Tyler’s team play hockey again today. Unfortunately today’s
game started an entire hour and a half earlier. It was nearly five minutes into
the game when Tyler scored the first goal. Unfortunately the other team started
playing dirty while the referees were watching and were not being penalized for
it but if Tyler’s team pushed back they were immediately called on it. The
other team won 4 to 1 but there is a complaint that’s been submitted to the
league association against the two refs.
After the game Kathy and I went home to change and to
retrieve a gift card that we received at Christmas. Being this was Valentine’s
Day we took the day off
from packing and decided to have a meal out. Since we had the taste for pasta we
drove over to East Side Mario’s for a late lunch. We still had to wait
ten minutes for a table but it would have been worse if we’d waited for supper.
Everything was perfect! The service was excellent and we’d just finished our
appetizers when our meals arrived. We walked out very satisfied after a
romantic diner for a special occasion plus food containers containing our
supper.
Kathy has been looking for a small sized container that she use
to organize the water bottles in the water cart that I made for the trailer. Each
time we cross the border the immigration officers open the door and everything
spills out and they don’t pick anything up. The same happens on some of the
rougher roads. When we set up for the night we move the cart in place and everything
spills out. We went to Canadian Tire where we managed to fine a clear plastic
container that should do the job. We made a couple more stops at Shoppers
Drug Mart and Walmart where we managed to find other things
that we are sure will help us to be better organized as Fulltimers.

| Tyler's team lost today. |
Back at the apartment we managed to get some time in on the
computers before finishing our lunch for supper. We also watched the 6 o’clock
News before heading over to our daughter Karen’s for a Sunday night visit. We had and
enjoyable visit with Karen and Greg. Tomorrow the temperature is supposed to
start getting back towards the norm for this time of year. How much we’ll get
packed is unknown because we have to get Kathy’s laptop repaired. Thanks
for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

I would dare say the closer you get to the fulltiming date the less you will sleep. Sounds like you are going to need a new screen or new laptop. Enjoy the day.
