We took Sunday to finish some maintenance items, and we even managed to relax a little and take some time for ourselves. I think I'm am coming down with another illness because when we got back from lunch I took a three hour nap while Mike rigged some reverse lights to help him see what's behind the truck in some of the remote areas he goes to for work.
On Monday we packed up and left for Kentucky. The original plan was to overnight in Memphis, but Mike wanted to push through to be at work on Tuesday morning, so he drove the whole way and we got here at 5 am. Gracie was starting to protest, she even got so desperate that she climbed into my lap a few times... she's not a lap kitty; she wants (and gets) attention but never that badly. Usually she is content to curl up on the console between us, and not putting her in the cage seemed to help her nerves so we're going to just do away with it... carry it with us should we need it for any reason, but not use it for trips.
I recovered some of my sleep and Mike went to work. When I woke up I hooked up the cable, put some things away, and realized my phone was in the truck. I went to the office to pay and get the wifi code, and no one was there. I went to the attendant's trailer, and no one was home. Lucky for everyone I was able to guess the code and therefore communicate with the outside world (i.e. Mike). Cable wasn't working because the receiver fell and all the cords came undone and I couldn't figure them out. I hate to say it, but spending all day in the RV by myself... that's all that keeps me sane. I do other things, I never just sit around and watch tv, but I need it going in the background. Unlike past workdays, this was a short one, so Mike came home at a normal time and we went to dinner and ran some errands. We have propane but haven't identified the leak, so it probably won't last long. And we have a support for the bottom step. Saw someone at another RV park with lumber under theirs and thought it was a good idea since the bottom step always feels weak; makes a huge difference.
This is an okay place. Not much within walking distance, but that's par for the course (which is funny, because this is a golf course). I'm ready to hunker down for a week or so, packing and unpacking everything a day or two apart gets a little old. At least we have a spare propane tank now so it's warmer in here. I need to go shopping but haven't put together a list, and I would rather wait until our next jaunt is out of the way. I'm not sure about the quality of food in the fridge when we're on the road and the power is off... that could be responsible for how I'm feeling.
