Dentist appointment

We got up early today and headed to the dentist office. Hubby has more dental work to be done before we head out for the winter. After hours of sitting and reading my book while waiting on hubby. We headed to get some plumbing supplies for Tyson’s house.

The feeling was starting to come back and so we decided to go out for a late afternoon or early evening meal. We went to our favorite place. Yep Chinese!

Then a trip to Wal-mart was also needed and by then it was time to head home as hubby was starting to hurt.

The rest of my evening was spent visiting with friends.

Mifi card!

We got up this morning and needed to run some errands. I have been debating getting some type of internet card. Esp for the times when we don’t have wifi. I have been doing some research and finally decided on the mifi card from Verizon. Unfortunately unlimited is not available anymore and I'm limited to 5gb a month. That means i have to be very careful with my usage. So far it’s working great. We love that we can use it as our own wifi and several computers can be hooked up at the same time and it doesn’t seem to pull the speed down with 2 computers.

After numerous errands and having Chinese for lunch we came home and our son Tyson brought one of the atv’s to us. Our evening was spent just relaxing.

Illinois bound

We got up this morning and got things around. We were sitting in the parking lot of the Big Store to get our tires on the 5th wheel. Doug the guy doing the work didn’t arrive until around 9 am and to top it off it’s raining. Finally around 11 am all the work was done and we were on our way. Luckily for us it wasn’t a hard rain and it stopped about Houston, Mo.

We arrived in Illinois around 4 pm and starting getting things setup. I went to dinner at the dining hall, hubby stayed home and finished getting his work done.

I spent several hours seeing friends and catching up on what they have been doing. I love convention time and seeing friends and making new ones. It’s good to be back.

Heading to Convention

We took the 4 wheelers back to illinois yesterday and today has been spent cleaning and packing things up. Tomorrow we get new tires on the trailer and then were bound for Illinois for convention in Oct. Looking forward to seeing family and friends.

Departure still unknown

It’s September! The summer has went by really fast. It has finally cooled down to wonderful temps! We checked on the truck tires and they still are not in so until they arrive we do not have a departure date. Were basically in limbo until we can get the truck and trailer tires on.

We are getting ready for the big holiday weekend. At first we thought it might be a slow one but today the rigs are rolling in.

We went into town today and did some grocery shopping and had lunch at Ryan's. On the way home it started raining. It rained the rest of the evening. That is okay because it's been very dry here and we are need of some rain.

Other then not really much happening .. just some relaxation time .. hope you all have a safe and wonderful labor day weekend

Where am I?

I haven’t posted in a week. The reason being not really much happening. It’s been very quite and slow at the ranch. Wednesday we took the truck in for a oil change and to have the front end aligned. All we needed was the Oil change and fuel filters replaced. Wow $245 bucks poorer. .. a diesel is much higher then a gas but hubby is very happy with the new truck.

We also went grocery shopping and out to eat . I had been wanting Chinese food for some time but hubby hasn’t been able to enjoy it so neither have I. I was so disappointed when we did go. What little food they had was good, but it just isn’t what I'm use to.

So today we spent $546 for camper tires which will be put on in a few weeks. The truck tires are still not in yet. So at least i get to hold that money a bit longer. Ughhh tires have been a major expense this year for us. But we discussed it and even though our camper and truck both seem to be fine, we decided to get new ones and not take the chance of a blow up and tearing up something or worse …

We decided it would be a good day to take a road trip to Mountain Home Arkansas to Home Depot and Lowe’s. We asked where a good Chinese Buffet was and was given direction. I also asked Tom Tom where one was. Can you believe Tom Tom sent us to the same place .. just different names. The Chinese Buffet was excellent and a very large variety of what we like. It was wonderful. Plus i got to see the beautiful view of the Norfork Lake!

We moved to a new campsite

The kids are gone and life is getting back to normal. My home is pretty much back to it’s normal shape. I am feeling much better and after several days of relaxation.

Next week our 30 days are up to move to a new campground so we decided to move to a 60 day pad in the same campground for the holiday weekend. I prefer being in Lonesome Pines Campground. We will not have to move again until our departure date.

We have to be back in Illinois by September 17 th for a dentist appt. Convention is the beginning of Oct and then we will know where we will be spending the winter. We will leave before Nov 1st. Right now destination is unknown .. wow what a wonderful life.

I love being able to move my home and never knowing for sure what kind of surprise is around the corner where i will be holding up the wheels at.
