Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario,
Canada.
Last
night after posting the blog I performed the usual computer routine before
shutting down. Closing other open programs, reading all the bloggers who had
posted since I last looked then verified our countdown counter was working
properly. It was indicating that we were officially under three weeks remaining
before we become Fulltimers. As Kathy lay down it was like she was
instantly asleep where I took at least two minutes to accomplish the same
result. Kathy slept soundly and didn’t stir until she got up this morning. I
dreamt most of the night. That is fine for most people but not for me. When I dream
it is normally about doing work and then I am actually physically moving in bed
as if I were really doing the job. By having looked at the countdown counter I was
dreaming that we were at the final day and going through all the actions of
moving articles still in the apartment into the trailer. When I have those kind
of nights I actually wake up more tired than when I went to bed. I have to stop
looking at our counter until after we’ve made our move.
While we
had our breakfast we witnessed that the weather guessers were accurate about our
getting flurries all day long just by looking out the balcony door. The only
thing they got wrong today was the amount so by noon when it turned to rain we
no longer had to worry about cleaning off our vehicles. Once our morning
reading was finished we both had our share of chores to take care of today.
After
lunch Kathy finished sewing the second room darkening curtain that she is
making for our trailer. Later, when she put it next to the first panel that she’d
made she found the trim was mounted at a different height at the bottom of the
panel. When she attempted to remove the trim her arthritic hands were not
allowing her to do the job. Using our magnifying goggles, it took me nearly
three hours to get the trim removed from that panel. As a fact Kathy had to
make supper and clean the dishes by herself so that I could finish the job.
We headed
over to visit with our daughter Karen since we haven’t seen her in nearly two
weeks. Tyler was also at home trying out a new physical fitness routine downstairs
in his workout room. Greg was at work while Kylla was out with a friend. Poor
Sanford really missed us and wouldn’t leave our sides the entire time we were there.
We had an enjoyable visit but were home by 9:00.
The
weather forecast on the Local News showed near seasonal temperatures for our
area for next weekend with a decrease in the wind speeds as well. We might get
some of our chores on the trailer competed then in preparation to our Fulltiming
Adventure. Thanks for
following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Looks so nice, as for sleeping, I'm happy if I can get several naps through the night. My brain refuses to shut off, Ronda sleeps like the dead. :)
ReplyDeleteI certainly hope the weather guessers get this one right. We need Mother Nature to bring Spring back!
ReplyDeleteSpring is springing this week, finally.
ReplyDeleteRick, I to have those movement dreams. Nancy has to wake me up when I am struggling.
ReplyDeleteI would have added a second row of trim so they matched.
ReplyDeleteHey can't wait for you to pull out on that adventure. We are looking forward to reading about your day to day fulltime experience.
ReplyDeleteOnce you are full time on the road, then you will probably relax a whole lot more! There's just so much to do I imagine.
