It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Hibernating, Adjusting Our Laptops, Anniversary Celebration and Fun Visiting.

Our Location today is McGregor, Ontario, Canada.

With the Rain continuing to fall throughout the night Kathy had no problem sleeping whatsoever. With the higher humidity level in the air it made the temperature feel colder then it actually was. That combined with my Raynaud’s Disease had me awake a number of times. When I woke this morning to the sound of a heavier downfall I simply got up and figured on starting my day. I managed to open all the Window Shades in the living area, got things ready for Breakfast and completed all my Morning Reading but it was still raining. 
The rain again, is getting to be old news.
Kathy has often said she must be a Bear because whenever she hears a steady Rain falling she can just curl up on the bed or lean back in her chair and drift off to sleep. It is like her body is telling her it is time to Hibernate. I am not a fast reader and knowing Kathy’s affliction I finally had to turn on the stove to start heating the water for our late morning brews as I was beyond hungry. Just the snapping noise to ignite the stove was enough to wake Kathy in the upstairs bedroom.

When she came downstairs she was bleary eyed and struggling to wake up. Mother Nature must have sensed her influence and turned the rain machine off as we ate our breakfast allowing us to enjoy our Bran Muffin and Coffee/Tea for breakfast. We discussed our plans we have about building an Ark because of the Excess Precipitation our area continues to get and according to the Weather Guessers it’s not going to let up any time soon. 
This is now the Wallpaper on my Laptop.
After finishing my normal morning chores, I changed the Wallpaper on my Laptop from one that came preloaded to a Sunset we recently took while in La Posa South near Quartzsite. When Kathy saw that she chose one of a Mountain Range to put on her laptop as well. That is the advantage of taking so many beautiful pictures. You have an endless supply that you can use when you want and for whatever purpose. She also needed a few other adjustments made to her Laptop that now seem to be making it easier for her to use.

Kathy made Garlic/Lemon Egg Noodles for our late lunch that not only filled our tummies but helped to warm us up. Even though our outside temperature would reach 61 F (16 C) with the 91 % Humidity and light North Breeze we couldn’t seem to get warm.

Shortly after 4:00 we headed to Amherstburg where we first went to McDonalds for our supper. We both enjoy their Sweet Chili Wraps and they are actually healthy for us. We took our time eating before leaving and heading to our son Kevin and daughter-in-law Melissa’s Home for our almost weekly visit. Since they are still raising their family sometimes they can’t always visit so that just means we have more to catch up on when we do. Last week they were busy so there was lots to catch up on tonight. 
Still raining after 4:00 while heading to Amherstburg.
Kevin and I went to the garage for a short while where I had to slightly modify our Over the Door Towel Rack. Things like that are made to fit Houses or Apartments but not RVs. With some measuring and Know-How at working metal I soon had the brackets reshaped to fit our RV Bathroom Door
This Robin was bigger then a Bunny that was only three feet away.
Back inside the house, Melissa and Kathy had been getting caught up on lots of things from last week. They were also celebrating their 21st Wedding Anniversary today and Melissa’s parents Al and Sal also stopped in with best wishes. They were amazed that we were living in our RV in the desert while we were away. They also complained there was too much work involved in owning their home but in the next instant didn’t want to sell it. 
This little Bunny kept eating his meal with the Robin nearby.
Once they had left the four of us kept on visiting having some serious conversations and then talking about other things that had us all laughing. The sad part was that the time seems to fly-by so quickly when we are enjoying ourselves.

Before leaving for Home the Rain had finally stopped and according to the Weather Guessers there is even a chance that we might see the Sun tomorrow that will make it warm up by a few degrees. Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.

  3. I'm with Kathy on wanting to sleep when it rains. The pitter patter of the rain on the roof is sleeping music.

  4. I love all kinds of weather, as long as it isn't too long. Except the gorgeous spring and fall temps - they are perfect. I love rain, but if we get too much, then we have to wait until the ground dries hard enough to drive on.

    Those garlic lemon noodles sound soooo good! Hope you are having a sunny day today. :)
