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.

Visiting Vera, Stopping At The Storage Room and Seeing Sanford Along With Our Daughter.


Our Location today is at McGregor, Ontario, Canada.

With the overnight forecast for heavy Fog in our area we chose to sleep with the Roof Vents closed and the Windows open. That would give us plenty of Fresh Air without as much moisture getting inside our trailer. The one thing about all that Fresh Air is that you sleep like a rock and have a hard time waking in the morning.

It was past 8:00 again this morning when I got out of bed. Being Retired I shouldn’t be too concerned about the Time but I just prefer a slightly earlier time to start my day. Opening the Window Shades at that time it was difficult seeing the Golf Course at the end of our street. Checking The Weather Network showed we were again basking in 100% Humidity.

It was only a short while later that Kathy made her way downstairs feeling as Groggy as I had when I got up. That Fresh Air will do it to you every time. After a lite breakfast we settled at the Computers getting our morning reading completed. We had plans for this afternoon so it was a slow morning. Kathy made Toasted Cheese Sandwiches and had Yogurt Cups for our dessert.
It was just after 12:30 when we went out the door headed for the Windsor Rehabilitation Center to visit with our friend Vera. The Humidex was on the rise so I dropped Kathy at the door before going to park. It seems like a bad habit that their Permit Machine goes down on the weekends making you have to find another Machine on the other side of the building for your Permit. 

It was 1:00 when we walked into Vera’s room to find her sitting in her chair. Her face instantly started to shine. She told us how someone had taken it upon themselves to change one of her Medications which cause her to be sick for a couple of days. We talked about a lot of different things all pertaining to our getting ready to head south. Vera brought up the Trip we shared with her and Bill the Summer of 2012. It made her smile even brighter. It was nearly 4:00 when we said our Good-Byes with the promise of coming back soon.

We had other errands that needed to be taken care of, so our next stop was at Guardian Storage where we first picked up our Mail before going back to our Climate Controlled Storage Unit. Since Kijijji will not let us advertise the CPAP that we are trying to sell for our friend Kathie, we put it in Storage until we get back next spring.

We made a stop at Wendy’s for our Value Menu Meal. Even at $9.22 for the both of us to eat is still a bargain. 
Flying over Karen's house.
We arrived at our daughter Karen’s house in Tecumseh just before 5:00 to find them getting ready to go out to some friends. We hadn’t planned on staying long anyways so we had a short visit with her and Greg sine we haven’t seen them since Greg’s birthday Three Weeks ago. Sanford was more then happy to see us. He even stopped eating his supper to nuzzle up to us before finishing his meal. I’m wanting to start packing the Basement before we hit the road so I picked up our Compressor that I had loaned to Greg while he worked on his Harley.

We have been forgetting to pick up additional Systane Eyedrops for Kathy so we stopped at Shoppers Drug Mart before we forgot again. With the use of these Drops the Floater she developed after her Cataract Surgery is slowly fading away. 
Someone else needing gas.
Since we were so close we stopped at the Zehrs grocery store on Manning Road to get a few things. On our way Home we topped the Car at the Pioneer gasoline station after not having seen prices this low in months. With more to do before we leave and more Hot Humidex Days heading our way, we’ll be doing what we can when we can do it. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.

  2. Have you considered taking the CPAP machine with you this winter? There'll be lots of people there who use them.

  3. I'm curious about the Systane eyedrops. I have floaters and my dr said there was no easy treatment. I googled Systane and they appear to be for dry eye, not floaters .
