After seeing the Comments that we have gotten over the last couple of weeks, we would like to say Thank You for the Words of Encouragement that everyone has expressed because even though we have kept a positive attitude towards this resolution it has been at times very draining. Modern Technology in some instances is not always the best way to solving age old problems and sometimes the Simpler Approach is better especially in vehicles. What a Vehicle is subjected to also affects the life of different Components. For now we will continue knowing that our Truck is road worthy and far Safer then it was a month ago.

When we finally got to bed last night neither of us remember our heads hitting the pillows. When my eyes opened this morning there was Sunlight seeping around the Window Shades. I didn’t sleep late enough to miss seeing a layer of Frost covering most of the vehicles around us. Even with cooler temperatures the Sun was melting things off and causing the Frost to steam as it melted.

As we ate our Muffins for breakfast we watched as a number of RVs headed for the Highway. After finishing our Coffee/Tea while at the Computers we both had chores we needed to do.

Kathy had to enter all the information into our Christmas Expense Spreadsheet. The way the Spreadsheet is set up it allows her to keep track of everything we have bought for everyone on our list and to keep track of the value. She can also refer back to previous years so the recipient is not receiving the same thing every year. When Kathy is partly finished the Shopping she’ll simply print out these lists which will help determine what the final Gifts will be.

Recently our Printer has been showing an Error Message every time we tried to use it. Yesterday when we went to Walmart to look at replacing it, Matthew an Associate asked what was happening then recommended a possible fix.

This was a White Paper Towel.
Amazing how dirty a Printer can get internally.

With that advice in mind, this morning I removed the Ink Cartridges then sprayed a corner of a Paper Towel with Glass Cleaner then proceeded to wipe down the Printer Head Guides. With all the Dust in the air and from the paper, (even though we can’t see it) it does build up on the Guides. It only took a couple of minutes to clean but as soon as Kathy tried to print a document it worked like a charm. That saved us having to buy another Printer.

We worked together making lunch. While Kathy made Turkey Sandwiches I cooked up some Butternut Squash Soup and assembled the Blackberry covered Yogurt we had for dessert. We figured that would be our largest meal of the day and we were right.

With the Printed Christmas Lists in hand we headed back to Walmart. Since we didn’t spend any money the night we stayed in their lot we have made up for it with our Christmas Shopping. We spent nearly Two Hours there finding personal things for everyone and were starting to feel tired so decided to call it a day.

We arrived back at Dream Catcher RV Park just before 4:00 and left all our purchases in the Truck while we walked over to the Clubhouse. Every Sunday they hold an Ice Cream Social where you get Three Medium Sized Scoops of Ice Cream with Toppings for a Dollar. You then get to sit and socialize with others enjoying their tasty treats.

It was past 5:00 when we headed back to the Trailer and brought our purchases in. Around 8:00 we started feeling a little hungry so had a Hot Chocolate and a couple of Cookies for our supper. After looking at our List we are nearly finished all of our Shopping for 2019. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.

Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.
