Since it was a cold morning it was a good day to sleep in. Once i finally drug my weary bones out of bed. I did my morning routine of browsing the internet to catch up on what is going on in the world. I’ve been watching the weather channel to keep up on what Sandy is doing.
After being lazy it was time to get started on my morning chores. Then we decided to go do the dreaded task off getting groceries. So we headed to Litchfield. Dollar Store, Camper store, Rural King, Wal-mart and Aldies. Ughhh over $200 poorer we returned home to put away our purchases. Now the cabinets are stocked. We still do need to get a some meat items before we began our winter journey. I like to travel with stocked pantry and freezer.
On the list of ta do things is installing the locks on the refrigerator so it will stay closed while going down the road. We purchased some heavy duty closet door latches and today hubby got the needed size screws to install them.
WOW .. they work great! Just like our RV refrigerator you have to push the doors in to get them to shut and lock but hey works for me. This is the one on the freezer door. The refrigerator door has one just like it. We also purchased some gutter extensions as we needed new ones on the awning side. Water was running down inside our light. Hubby also got those installed. The new light outside that was installed needed caulking put around it and that was done today as well. YES .. were getting more things knocked off the Ta Do List.
Dinner tonight was BBQ Pork sandwich with some chips. Earlier this morning i had a big family pack of pork steaks that i had bought thinking i would cook them when the kids were here. I took them out of freezer and put them in the crock pot and they cooked while we were running around. When i got home i poured the broth off that i plan to use later and separated the meat. I BBQ enough for dinner tonight and the rest i put into containers to do something else with them later. I love things i can take out of freezer and use at a later time :)
Later on Tyson stopped by and picked up Toby’s blanket and the WII remotes we forgot on Saturday. We visited with him before he left and the rest of the evening was spent relaxing. 6 more days give or take and we should be on the road. Of course if they are calling for bad weather like rain we will re-think those plans.
