Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario,
Canada.
By the
time I’d closed down my computer for the night Kathy was already asleep but it
didn’t take me long to nod off either. This morning at breakfast I expressed
that even after sleeping soundly I still felt tired even with no dreams like
the night before. Kathy mentioned that even though I hadn’t dreamt again she had
woken a few times through the night to see my arms flaying about as if I was
physically working. We are so looking forward to being in the trailer so that
we’ll finally be able to relax and get some rest.
While enjoying
breakfast we were amazed after the cold temperatures we had last week that it
was already 50 F (10 C) at 8:00 in the morning. People were
outside in jackets instead of being bundled up in parkas but the sun was still
hidden behind a cloud cover.
Once our
morning reading was finished I took the time to notify our old insurance
company that we would be cancelling their services as of the 16th of
this month. Kathy had been with them for over fifty years but when they said
they wouldn’t insure us as Fulltimers it was a parting of ways with no
tears. More companies will continue to lose customers if they take stands like
that.
After lunch
Kathy and I worked together to start making the last set of light-darkening curtains
for the trailer. With all the sizes written down we cut the last six panels
using the floor as a large table. Next Kathy used her iron and ironing board to
create pleats where she needed to sew the side seems. After she demonstrated
how to tie the threads together she continued the sewing while I tied the ends
of the seams. At that point we realized we’d be short of trim for these panels.
We drove back to Fabricland where we
managed to find the identical material in no time however Kathy now wanted to
create curtain ties as well. It took nearly an hour before we were heading back
to the apartment.
We were
emotionally tired by then so we put the curtains aside and started making
supper. Since it was 57 F (14 C) this afternoon Kathy started
preparing an Acorn Squash and some Asparagus while I fired up our Weber Q to
cook a nice steak we could share. Everything turned out great and to us that is
a sign that spring has finally arrived.
We have
become so committed to seeing our Fulltiming Adventure come to term that
we continue to search the apartment on a daily basis to see what we can pack
away that we are no longer using to speed up the process. Today we packed a
couple more boxes that will find their way to our Storage Unit. We’ll
have to see what we accomplish tomorrow. Thanks for following along and feel free
to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

It is not work that kills, but worry.
Perfect weather for the Weber Q and many more days to come.
