As we get older, and the time flies by so quickly, it IS hard to remember the days! I think the wise person who wrote the above quote is our age - or older!!! So, here are some moments from this week. One of our fans has requested a blog post, as I've been neglectful this week, so here it is! Thanks for reading and wondering what we are up to.
Mighty Mouser brought Roger a present! They were outside sitting in the sun, Roger was tossing the ball for her when it went under the RV. (We can't throw it too far as she is not supposed to be free roaming.) She disappeared behind the wheels and didn't come out for a while. Roger thought maybe she had gone to visit our neighbor (the other Maggie) when he noticed movement under the wheel covers. Next thing he knew she was trotting out and came over to him and dropped a dead mouse at his feet. She loves her Roger!
Deja Vu - watching dogs is like having your kids back when they were small. I'm sure they (my kids) remember my saying, "You sit on one end of the couch and you sit on the other and I don't want to hear a peep out of either of you." The Maggies (we were "sitting" our neighbor's dog who happens to be named Maggie, too) had just had a session of playing Tasmanian Devil as they chased each other around the RV. They finally calmed down and had naps so I could relinquish my referee duties and I got to move to the other couch and knit.
The weather this week has been super. We've been able (both of us) to get out for walks and see the ducks on the lake. They are even enjoying it - perfect bath weather.
Well, until last night when the rain started. We are having a rainy weekend again but it isn't too cold. I've got a crockpot of what was supposed to be chili going. It will be soup with some noodles or something - it's a bit watery - if I can salvage it. Fortunately, Roger will eat most anything I fix if I wait long enough to feed him and he is hungry! Besides the pseudo chile, I've got a southwest flavored cabbage salad. It's going to be a 3 Beano meal so we don't have "moments" later we want to forget!
We have RV friends visiting this week. We met them in Yuma last year and they live in Gardnerville, NV - only 40 miles south of where we live. Small world.
I've been working on cleaning out photo duplicates today. I downloaded an app that really made it simple. I went from almost 10,000 photos to 9,046! It's going to help me get more organized - I hope.
We met a couple named Sandy and Darleen Keith yesterday. We had seen mail addressed to them in the same cubbyhole where our mail is sorted to and wondered about them. They are Canadian and live in Alberta Province. His family is descended from the Keith Clan in Scotland (ours is from Ireland.). It was interesting talking to him about his genealogy. They are regulars here and will return next year in February - looking forward to more conversation with them.
So, that's our exciting week of moments - unless you want to include grocery shopping, paying bills, laundry, and walks around the park. All of which you've read about ad nauseum.
We are always looking for clever license plates on RVs or tow cars. Here's a good one - very appropriate, I think. |
