Since
we both seem to sleep better to the sound of Rain tapping away on our roof, we both managed to sleep like a
couple of rocks last night. I was up before Kathy this morning and it wasn’t
from the Sun that was hiding behind
the Clouds. After getting things
ready for breakfast tried as much as I could and there was no way the Pictures would post to Last Night’s Blog.
Even
though our Verizon MiFi Hotspot was being boosted by our WeBoost with the inside antenna we would have lots of trouble getting
On-Line today. That is affecting our
ability to Post Pictures, Comments, Check E-Mails or do any On-Line
Communications. Hopefully that will change when I install our Outside Antenna later this week.
We
spent more time drinking our Coffees
then working on the Computers. We
also made up a Shopping List of
things we didn’t have on our Shopping
List on Sunday. After loading what we thought we might need in the Car we were soon on our way to Amherstburg with a list of places to go.
Having
had a very light breakfast we stopped at McDonalds and started our day with a Grilled Sweet Chili Wrap and Strawberry/Mango/Pineapple Smoothie for
our early lunch. They always say don’t shop on an Empty Stomach.
Next,
we walked the aisles of the No-Frills grocery store getting most of what was
on our List at lower prices then at
the other grocery chains.
Since
they don’t sell Cooked Chickens at a
Deli Counter there, we ended up at Walmart where they do carry them and more. We also looked for other
things to replace the ones we have that are wearing out but No Luck. When we came outside we were
looking at something we had never seen before but it sure had people’s
attention. On the roof of his SUV
was what appeared to be a Hippie from
an old comic strip laying down and holding on to the Roof Rack. Across the top of his windshield were the words Chainsawed Expressions. What better way to advertise his
business.
We
made a quick stop at Dollarama where we scratched a few more
things off our List.
Knowing
that our son Kevin would be home we made a quick stop to drop a package off.
With
the Sun finally making an appearance
we then drove over to the Home Hardware Building Center thinking they might have the hardware we
needed but that was another wasted stop.
Heading
back towards the Park we thought about stopping at
the McGregor Home Hardware. Small town Hardware Stores are known for having
hidden treasures but not today. We both went in different directions so that we
would be certain the other hadn’t missed anything.
Back
Home even with the moderate temperatures as
soon as we opened the door we had to hurry to open the Windows and Vents to
cool off the inside of the Trailer.
Knowing what that the coming Weekend
Temperatures could reach we might have to exercise our AC to cool down.
We
had just finished putting our groceries away when we saw our neighbour Marva
and her daughter at her trailer without Maynard. When they were about to leave
we asked if Maynard was okay. He tends to rush with anything he does and on the
14th he was going down in
his basement when he thought he was on the Bottom
Step. The Two Step Landing was
so hard that he broke his Ankle and
a couple of Bones in his Foot. This is the Third Year in a row that he has injured himself. We sent her along
with Prayers for a Speedy Recovery and a Warning for Maynard to slow down.
Dark Clouds seemed to be gathering to our north so
we sat under the Gazebo where there
was a nice breeze. Hugh came over to talk for a while, kind of an impromptu Happy Hour. We talked about all the
different RVs he had with his Late Wife then what we have had. Before
we knew it those Dark Clouds were
dropping large Raindrops as a
warning. Hugh headed home and we headed in just before the Rain came down hard for the next Ten Minutes.
Using
some of the Cooked Chicken Kathy got
at the Walmart Deli Counter she created a wonderful Southwest Chicken Salad for our supper.
We
watched a movie we had purchased at Walmart in Parker, Arizona on television. Since we are having issues with the Computers and we aren’t hooked up to Cable it’s the perfect time to watch them.
Tomorrow
is forecasted to be a dry day so we’ll be getting an early start so we can
accomplish everything we need to. Thanks for
following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Ask a silly question:
You know that little indestructible black box
that's used on planes?
Why can't they make the whole plane out of that
stuff?
Love the flowers and another busy day for you and Kathy
