Plantation RV Park - Dallas, TX

I know that we have missed a few days blogging.  Just found a GOOD place where it doesn't hurt my back to use my laptop.  Life is Good Today!   Tuesday Billy and I just sort of rested a lot after that hairy 3 days of hard driving and stopping the night at rest stops.  Monday was my daughter's 33rd birthday.  Where does the time go?  It seems like only yesterday that she was a newborn baby in Kailua, Hawaii.  I still miss those days.  We picked up Laure from 1st grade at 3:00 and ordered pizza for dinner.  What fun to order pizza and have them bring it right to your door.  We haven't done that in a long time.  We stayed at Donna's and Jody's house with the grand kids until these two old folks started to nod off.

Yesterday, Billy and I started working on getting the motor home set up the way we want it to be.  We have to delay doing many things until we get back home and move a few items from the house into the motor home.  However, Billy set up his X Box so we are set to play our video games.  I hung a 3M Command Hook for the dog leashes and one for the pot holders in the kitchen.  I also purchased a huge 3 ringed notebook and plastic sleeves to put all of the motor home instructions and warranties together.  Now to find a place to store the notebook where we can get to it when the slides are in.  Then went to Target and purchased a brown foot stool that has storage inside and also doubles as an end table and a table between the captain's and co-captain's seats.  It worked so well that I am going to buy another one today to use as a movable coffee table.  They are extremely light and only $19.00 life is good today.  I have read that it is a good idea not to purchase anything for the camper that doesn't have at least two uses.  Works for me.  Billy tried to purchase a new pin THAT LOCKS for our tow dolly, but couldn't find the right kind.  We'll just keep looking.  We picked up some guacamole and grated cheese and enjoyed a delicious Mexican dinner with Donna and Jody.  We visited until bedtime with Laure and Eric, but Ashley was off to Youth Group at the church.  She has homecoming this weekend, and we are excited to be here to share that with her.

While Billy slept in this morning I went to the laundromat and finished up the laundry.  We are preparing to go to the store to buy some carrots and potatoes for dinner tonight, and then we will pick up Laure from school again at 3:00.  We are looking forward to a pot roast dinner at Donna and Jody's tonight.  "Life is Good Today!"
