We were up at our usual time again this morning and were very surprised to see the Sun filling the sky which meant the Solar Panels were busy charging our Batteries. After a lite breakfast we settled in at the Computers with our Coffee/Tea catching up on Messages, the News, the Weather and other RV Blogs.

Our Weather Forecast including today.
Our high only hit 50 F (10 C)

While Kathy was corresponding with our daughter she mentioned that we wanted to start wrapping the Gifts for our Merry Thanksmas Celebration soon. That seemed to bother Karen because she doesn’t understand that while the Gifts are in our Fifth Wheel they are taking up valuable space that we’ll regain once they are wrapped and moved to our Climate Controlled Storage Unit.

While our Second Cup was cooling I completed my morning chores before going back to do more reading. I even headed out to the Garden Shed to store the Bin with the Wind Generator Feathers to give us more space while we wrap all the Gifts. I also made certain that we still have plenty of Propane to see us through these continued cold damp days.

For lunch we had Split Pea and Ham Soup to help warm us up along with Mixed Berry covered Yogurt along with a couple of Cookies for dessert.

After getting the Dishes cleaned up Kathy started pulling clothes from our front closet and piling it on our bed. That gave her easy access to all the Gifts that been stored there and a chance to rearrange the clothes when she put them back. Once I’d hauled the Gifts to the couch and she had replaced the clothes then I started getting more Gifts from under the bed while she hauled them to the couch. Finally I started taking the last of the Gifts from our bedroom cupboard.

We prefer giving more personalized gifts to our Family rather then just Gift Cards even though that is what we encourage them to give to us. When we start our winter travels we find unique Gifts that might not make it to our hometown of Windsor for a few years if at all. As we travel they have to be stored in order that they don’t get broken. When we return back to Ontario the Canadian Immigration Officers always give us a weird look when we say we are declaring Christmas Gifts.

That's all Gifts on our couch.

When Kathy saw the entire pile on the on the couch she could only say that we have got to cut down much more next year. She had me print out her Spreadsheets that details what everyone is getting but after doing all that today the wrapping will start tomorrow.

Kathy made a Caesar’s Salad along with some Honey Garlic Chicken for our supper this evening and topped it off with an Apple Sauce Cup.

Since the Sun had already disappeared behind the Clouds this evening we watched the movie called “The Captive” starring Ryan Reynolds. It was about a child abduction that took years to solve. It was totally produced and filmed in Ontario. It didn’t have the effects of a Hollywood movie but it did have some action. We would rate this as a Six out of Ten.

Once again we want to wish all our Female Readers a Happy Mothers Day. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.

Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.
