November in REVIEW 2020

Goodbye Daylight savings Time, I had off Sunday the 1st. Jim was at Bryan house last night. I woke up just after 6:30, and didn't even realize until I looked at the microwave and a clock that changed by itself, how early I REALLY got up.

Had off today went to Hilltop Acres country store, after lunch went to  Fredericksburg for a doctor appointment at 3:15. I went to Redners first. Jim texted me and said the truck was finished, could we pick it up when I'm  done. So we were trying to figure out HOW we are going to do that, 3 vehicle's and 2 driver's. I was not finished until 4:30.  We left the work van at Redners went to Hasslers in my car, got the truck, 900 some dollars later, we took truck to his Mom's and was going to leave it there. We dropped off oranges we had for her, and decided to JUST take truck back to the CG. Jim was worried about the van, I was more nervous about letting the truck at Redners, he wanted to move the van first. Plus it was Trick or Treat night  in Lebanon. Then I put spaghetti in IP and we went all the way BACK to Fredericksburg to get the van. About 20 miles. Took half an hour one way. Was back after 7, dinner was ready, we ate and Jim took a shower.

November 3 had off today, after lunch went to WORK to get my weekly Covid test.
My boss sent a group text to see if anybody wanted to work tomorrow. I told her I could. When I went in for my test she said I can work from 9 till whenever I wanted tomorrow morning.
 Then I went to Joanne fabrics to find some yarn for a summer pull on tank top I have a pattern for. They are NO help in there, I went to Michael they are great, guy called his girlfriend to ask her my yarn questions, he said she is the expert.
I was going to go home then. Jim called and said he was working late, we wanted to go vote together. It was starting to get dark, with beautiful sunset when I left the store I was in.  So I ended up going myself.  The line was a mile long, I drove around to the front found a place to park right next to a short line. The guy said it was for people from M to Z. That worked out great,  Jim joined me in the line a short time later, he didn't want to jump ahead so he went to the back, about 10 people between us. The lady behind me said she would switch places with him and go stand with her neighbors. How nice was that. When we were finished, he went back to work all the way out in Jonestown. I went home and got dinner ready.

Wednesday November 4
Did some laundry and vacuumed Jim grilled burgers for dinner. I worked 4 to 8.

Thursday November 5
I got up half hour before my alarm, so I had more time to relax and drink coffee. I worked 9 to 3:30, I  came home showered When Jim got home We went for a golf cart ride. Was SO beautiful out. He grilled chicken patties for dinner. 
Still DON'T know WHO won.

November 6, our baby boys BIRTHDAY. Travis, can't believe that he is 31 today, my 10 lb 4 oz baby, is NOW 6' 3" 
After we are both home from work, he WAS home first, which is not the norm, he left a little early since He worked so late last night. He had a doctor appointment at the cardiologist at 3:45 today. Everything went well they did another EKG, we ask the doctor for more Xarelto pills to increase our stash for the Florida trip. We had a few errands to run after the doctor. Went to get the mail and renewed  our UPS Store for another year. I texted Travis happy birthday and wanted to see if he wanted to join us for dinner at Hoss's for his birthday. He said his roommate Now new girlfriend was with him if she could come too, we met her once or twice before. And Mia our youngest granddaughter was with him too, he has her on the weekends.  So we had a lovely dinner together and talked for 2 hours or more. Talked about Florida and playing golf I'd like to go with him sometime.

Saturday and Sunday November 7th and 8th I worked both days. Jim has off the weekends and it was supposed to be beautiful, over 70 degrees.  I suggested he work on the hole where the golf cart has to go when we travel. I told him you don't want to wait till it's freezing cold out to get that done. So when I got home from work on Saturday he showed me what he got accomplished. He had to build something to protect the opening of the compartment, as we call the hole. We went for a golf cart ride, campgrounds pretty empty now.  Then We ended up having a campfire I made him some macaroni and beef for dinner I had some leftovers and we ate by the fire. 
This is a picture from the front door. A few worker's stay over the winter. They all have to move to F loop. One is a Lifestyle FW, too hard to see in pic.

Sunday the 8th when I got home he showed me more things that he finished. He put the new side mirrors on the golf cart, we took another ride around. Stopped with Neil and Nancy at their fire, had a really nice visit so much to talk about. They're leaving later this year too. Went back to the FW Jim grilled chicken and zucchini planks I made some tiny new potatoes in the IP, we had a wonderful dinner, great end to a another beautiful day. A week of OVER 70 degrees.

Monday and Tuesday November 9th and 10th I had off,  Monday I had a lot of phone calls to make doctor appointments called Erlich, washed the sheets and hung them outside. got the new Tupperware spice containers ready for outside grill use. Out with OLD in with new Tupperware container's. 
Wednesday night I talked with Travis on the phone. We made plans, he said what are you going to wear, I told Jim we never made plans before that he asked me what I was going to wear. You have to dress nice for the golf course.  It was going to be one of the last few days really nice outside that I could go watch him play golf. Wednesday. I was up early Wednesday morning planned on making him breakfast taking it with me. It was ham, onions peppers, zucchini, cheese, 3 egg hash. Had to stop at work for my covid-19.. And wear a cute outfit to golf in. My boss at work said you have your summer clothes on, I said that's all I have now. She said you need a coat, I do have one. 

I left went to meet Travis at his house in Annville, we had breakfast together. We left the house he had a tee time set for 11:30. He wanted to hit some practice balls first. Can't believe HOW far he can hit a ball.  I do not know a lot of golf terminology. Travis told me some general rules of the game.  Like not talking  when someone's about to take a shot.  And not walking between the player and his ball . It was beautiful out and great to spend the day with him. Takes a long time. They paired us up with three other guys. I got my first golf ball shot to my leg. The one guy hit his ball, when Travis and I were looking for his. YOU spend ALOT of time looking for balls.  Thought it would leave a mark, but it didn't. After he was finished around 3:30 we went to Quentin Tavern and I got us a late lunch, early dinner for me. Jim was finished with work I invited him to come, he had to shower. We had a lovely time it's been a long time since we spend that much time together. He's a wonderful beautiful kid that of course I love dearly. Here are some pictures of our day and a few beautiful homes that surround the Royal Oaks golf course.
 After I got home I was exhausted. Can't believe how tired I was but I had some food I made wanted to take over to Jim's mother. And I needed to pick up a prescription. I was going to go alone but Jim said he would go along which was very nice of him. I love it when he drives. I ran into CVS first then we dropped off the food. I made her two plates one with grilled chicken, yellow rice and mixed vegetables and homemade applesauce, the other with a grilled Burger Jim made, homemade macaroni and cheese and green beans. and a little piece of key lime pie. We talked about Florida, got home around 8:00 went to bed at 9. 

Thursday November 12, getting ready for our last big move this weekend before we go to Florida. I had off today and have been planning a shoe cabinet I want to have built because I can't find anything that will work. I want a cabinet for the end of the island that does not look like a shoe cabinet. Jim's friend of a friend, Mark is a woodworker and I was finally able to talk to him today on the plans that I made. Jim texted him some numbers, I sent him some pictures. Hoping I can get it before we leave.  
End of the island where I want it to go.

My list to him, I want it to not look like a shoe cabinet, open to the back, to put the shoes in on the fridge side but not so that they could fall out.  something soft so it won't rub the hardwood floor. And must be lightweight and easily attached to the island so it won't fall over.

I made dinner and we were treated to this beautiful sunset on our last night at PA Dutch Thousand Trails before we move Saturday. 

Friday November 13th after I got home from work. We had an appointment to stop at Sycamore Hill RV where we are moving to on Saturday until we leave for Florida on the 4th. Jim was working in Harrisburg so he was a few minutes later, I met him there just after 4:30. we got to see the spot where we will be, confirm our appointment to get it inspected immediately upon arrival. This is the same RV guy that we are waiting for our water heater from. first thing he said to us was oh I forgot you were coming, why would you say that to a customer, I'll never KNOW. We left the van there and he showed us where to park all our vehicles. 
I asked Jim  ( RV guy's name too ) about our neighbor, Bruce, a guy alone, in the FW in the picture.

I made more food for my mother-in-law so we took that over first and ran into the store quick before we went back to the FW and had dinner.

Saturday November 14th our last Moving Day till we leave. 
We confirmed yesterday that we would arrive between 10 and 11. It took forever to get all the stink bugs out when we put the slides in. The packing up went well. Here is a picture of Jim hard at work.          I made Jim  breakfast and we left just after 10. Grueling long drive of about 6 minutes.
First we backed in front of the garage doors to get inspected. We walked around while they did that, Alot of RV's are stored here and some for service. We saw our friends FW, had a tire with a flat. We texted him a picture. The walk  didn't take very long. We paid for the inspection and our month  and half that we are here. Talked to Jim for a bit. Then we backed into our spot.  Here is where we have to GO. 
 He only has 30 amp here so we will have to rough it a little. Mainly me cuz, I can't multitask, while cooking dinner doing laundry and other electric using chores. But we can make it work and we will learn how much amps each Appliance uses, which we don't really know NOW. Will really be helpful when boondocking.  But only 3 miles from my work, and way cheeper then Lickdale was last year.

We got to meet Bruce RIGHT away. He came out, watched us, told Jim right away a different way he should have come in. Kept talking to us, he walked away a few times, but kept come BACK. After awhile Jim finally said I HAVE to finish setting up now. He said "OH yea I get it, " NO, DON'T think YOU did. I told Jim, YOU made a friend. He said he is a nice guy, was telling him his LIFE story, lol. HE Wants someone to talk to. DON'T we all, need to connect.
Turns out He is NOT here much.

We got all hooked up and settled in. I got lunch ready. The Sat dish was a pain for Jim, he is getting sick of it, and the TV. 
It was nice to NOT HAVE to go anywhere else, as the van was already here. We, 
( well HE did ) put the golf cart together, our ride around took 2 minutes. Beautiful out though good DAY to move.

I knew Jim was RIGHT at HOME, when HE said I'm going to make a FIRE.  YEA,  We asked yesterday if we could. Jim has a portable fire ring.
We do have a nice BACK yard.

 Sunday and Monday I worked on November 17th Tuesday I had off went out and had my nails done stopped at the Chicken store and Redners. I brought a home a whole bunch of boxes from work Ehrlich was coming Wednesday and I had to empty out the pantry in a few other cabinets what a job. I tried to take a picture of each Pantry Shelf to try and get it back somewhat the same. Never works I'll show you one picture I have five others just like it. I work the rest of the week including the weekend, actually did 5 1/2 consecutive days. Saturday after work we met Steve and Katrina out at Moose's LZ for an early dinner, we talk to them about their plans to go full-time soon.

 Monday November 23rd I worked the day shift came home took a quick shower and went Wal*Mart quick then to Myerstown for my second haircut since we've been back. it was super long. Saw a woman from work there it was funny we had just talked about both going there. Stopped at Burger king on the way HOME.

 Tuesday November 24th I had off today had to go into work for MY Covid test, put a load of laundry in before I left. after work I ran to the Hilltop Acres store got more apples for applesauce. Came home Jim was here already. He started grilling for me outside he grilled chicken, zucchini and onion slices and then chicken patties for dinner tonight. while inside I made chicken and yellow rice for his dinner tomorrow potato pancakes for tonight, and soup in my IP,  a lot of watching the electric amp monitor, took awhile but we had FUN.

Tomorrow I'll make another batch of applesauce no more time tonight. I had a huge pile of dishes to wash. I work the rest of the week including Thanksgiving, Jim's going to take his mother out. But so far I have the weekend off.

Wednesday November 25th today I made another batch of applesauce I had dinner already for Jim when he got home and I work 4 to 8.

Thanksgiving
I worked today, very weird NOT having the residents guests come for Thanksgiving dinner.  Jim took his mother to Harper's Tavern for dinner, they had three seatings. Jim graduated with the lady who runs the place. He said the food was great for only $25 a person, all you could eat. We have wonderful food where I work, I had a nice dinner there after most my work was finished around 1. My boss made me take leftovers. 

Friday November 27th Jim has four consecutive days off. I work today and Ehrlich was supposed to come between 3 and 5. They called  but I don't look at my phone when I'm at work. They called Jim, luckily he was home, we were the last stop for the day so he said he arrived around 1, took care of spraying everything we were having some bug issues. he's just lucky that he was home today cuz normally he's not, the Friday after TG. 

Saturday November 28th I have off this weekend which is a pretty rare thing since we've been back. But we enjoyed it together after we enjoyed our morning coffee together.  Jim had breakfast then went over to Byran to get 100 lb propane bottle he said we can use While we are here, he went to fill it up too. While he was gone I was able to " wash " my hair and get ready for a day of fun. We went to Cracker Barrel for lunch in Hamburg. We have been so ready to have fried catfish hush puppies and coleslaw. It is actually my favorite meal to get out somewhere so good we saved a small amount of leftovers for tomorrow.
 Then we went to Cabela's which is right there, I found a nice pair of sandals since my other black ones are about shot. 

Old black one's on left New Black on Right

Walked around quick. Jim NOT REALLY into it, I took ALOT of pictures.  Here are a few my favorites.

Catfish kind of funny,  was JUST our lunch.
 Then we drove back stopped at my mother-in-law took her some Thanksgiving leftovers Jim told her about the flight he found for Florida for the two of them. Then we got back to the fifth wheel,  ate a  small amount of chicken and yellow rice. Jim went over to Byran for the night, going to get more firewood,  he said there was no room with a hundred pound bottle in the back. I had a relaxing night watched my shows and worked on my crocheting summer tank top.

Sunday November 29th
 I think I'm going to actually make it the whole weekend off. I had a relaxing morning me coffee Jim arrived after 9,   I made him breakfast. Later we went to the storage shed to get some stuff and put some crap in. Then we went to our favorite sub place Bartolo's. Then we stopped at Walmart. When I got home I had a chat with Christine she's on her way to California soon first stopping in Florida. Jim washed a huge pile of DISHES while we talked, I had phone on speaker SO he could hear her praise him when I told her WHAT he was doing. GOOD man I have. 

I worked on the 30th, CAN'T believe November is OVER.  Rained all day, we stayed in had dinner.

October in REVIEW 2020

October in REVIEW 2020

This is my BIRTHDAY month on the 11th 
Nancy gave me flowers today. We chatted with them for a bit, after I got home from work,  Jim just got home with my MIL, they went for lunch and spent the day together. We took her for a golf cart ride. She liked it alot, it was alot easier for her to get into, because it sits so CLOSE to the ground compared to a regular full size golf cart.  She enjoyed sitting outside under the awning in the Sun. Then we took a drive and took her back to the house.

On our way back to the RV Jim asked me if I wanted to stop anywhere. We talked about the water heater. It's been so long and we're so sick of it. It's getting cold taking a shower till we get back here. So I said what are our options, what can we do. He said let's go into Lowe's. So we had to find one that we can plug into an outlet and didn't have too many amps. We had a nice chat with a Lowe's employee, he was very helpful, he helped Jim open the  box so he could check the fitting. There was a 6 gallon with too many amps, so we found a two and a half gallon water heater. Really small but we both felt like we could make it work, and as they say better than nothing. He found the rest of the stuff he needed to install it. I went to look at more fun things till he was finished with that.

On Saturday while I was at work he installed the  water heater. I'm so lucky to have a guy that can do that stuff. What a game changer 2 and 1/2 gallons makes.

Monday October 5th Jim had to get a covid tests after work for his procedure coming up. I work till 5:30. I have to get a covid tests once a week at work the whole month of October so far.

I called Thousand Trails Orlando and made reservations for his mom to come to Florida for the month of February. She will be staying in a getaway cabin in TTO. I was so excited after talking to them. On Tuesday the 6th after I finished getting my nails done, I was bring pizza home for us, I talked Jim into coming over to his mom's to tell her the info I found out and what it would cost. I met him at the sunset parking lot we ate our pizza together, then drove over to the house to talk to her. He said she wasn't answering the phone, but as we pulled up she came back from a ride with Shannon. Or as Jim calls her NOW his new sister.  We had a nice chat, she is negative as always, she didn't like my presentation Per usual, I feel as though I could have done a better job. It was a lot of numbers to explain. I called them back the next day wrote everything down again they sent an email that Jim could see and make a copy and he could explain it to her again. I gave them  $750. down the reservations are booked.

Thursday the 8th Jim left work a early as we had an appointment for him with Dr. Shipe the cardiologist at 3:45. 
First we droped my car off at Ebersole's where Thomas works so he can work on my car. We were able to see him had a nice quick visit. He was telling us about when he and Travis played golf, and Travis got a hole in ONE, Thomas said he is pretty good.So cool to see your kids when they are at work.  The engine lights been on forever, needs an oil change, and I think a new starter it's  messed up and doesn't always start up right away.

Then we went to Boscov's department Store, Jim needed new shoes and a pair of jeans. I was looking for a mini wallet to go in my covid purse I made as I call it. Found one and new king size sheets, thats it.We thought the mall was dying out back in the day, it was really empty now. As we were heading back over towards where the doctor appointment was I said let's stop at Kohl's, they have a nice selection of shoes, he found two pair  there. We  went into Ultra Beauty and I got my hair product that I couldn't find at the mall either. Normally we would have went out to eat but with Jim's procedure tomorrow we can't do that. We arrived at the appointment and,
We talked about his colonoscopy tomorrow the 9th. So he hasn't eaten all day. What pills to take and not to take and his upcoming procedure we booked for 2 weeks from now is cardioversion. After we got home and the prep begins.

Everything went well on Friday with Jim's colonoscopy . They said he had some issues with diverticulosis, and maybe should avoid corn. He woke up like his alarm clock just went off. And was wide awake not like the last time. We ended up going to Ruby Tuesdays after the procedure. Since we didn't have my car, I drove the truck, is FUN but I do like it when Jim is along, even though he was under the influence of his propofol drug after his procedure, LOL. It makes me feel more secure when I have him as my Copilot.

Saturday October 10th we went over to his Mom and picked her up. Then we went to pick my car up it was finished .  It did not cost as much as we anticipated ,  Thomas said  later when they asked him  what he should charge  he said nothing  so we didn't get charged  for labor cost .  Then we went to the hotel in Lebanon to pick up Jim's brother Larry who was in town for a few days. He's from Colorado has lived there for many years now. We went for lunch at the Quentin Tavern the four of us, we had a very lovely time. I had to be at work at 4. So since I was still in my car the three of them drove his mom's car. I was able to head back to the RV get ready for work, and they took a long drive and went sightseeing before they dropped Larry off at the hotel, then he took his mom home.
Saturday October 11th today's my birthday and moving day going back to TTH. I was hoping to see my boys today. They both called, Thomas was spending the weekend putting in a new floor in their main living area kitchen dining room and living room. He said it took a lot longer than he thought it would. I told him after he worked on the car, I hate to tell you but the engine light came back on again. 

The beginning of this week I got my flu shot on Monday the 12th andTuesday another covid tests. Wednesday I had off today I made a trip over to Hilltop Acres grocery store, then stopped at Country View before going back to the campground. I had made a pork loin in the instant pot. We made plans to go over to Brian's house, AKA Byron. For dinner tonight , we had a little potluck. She made some chicken. I had this pork loin so I made pork fried rice. And I had made some hamburger macaroni soup that he likes so much. I also made a chocolate chip zucchini cake which I shared with a lot of different people, I had two servings left to freeze. We had a nice visit got some more firewood. Loved her new bakers rack, always wanted one.

Wednesday October 15th after work we made plans to go over to Thomas and see his new floor. I took dinner along we had a lot of leftovers from last night. I took more chocolate chip zucchini cake. But they had a little red velvet birthday cake for me oh, so we had both. Thomas hooked my car up to his little machine from work to see what the code was and why the engine light was on again. He said we should bring it in again, which we will do but we have to take the truck in first to our diesel  guy.
It was so nice to see Thomas and everyone again the floor looks great.
 Friday October 16th I worked late but Jim had to stop after he got off work to get a chest x-ray and a covid tests for his heart procedure next week

I work Saturday and Sunday October 17th and 18th Jim had picked up the mail yesterday and the Tupperware is starting to come in that I ordered, still waiting for some orders.

Beautiful fall leaves at TTH 
 Monday Jim picked up our new steps that finally came in. Glow steps found out they were coming from Australia it took about two months. They actually touch the ground so they feel very solid.

I had off October 20th and had made plans to meet Christine at the Moose's LZ restaurant out of the Gap again. She soon getting ready for her trip to head to Florida and then on her way to California. First I had to stop at work and get another covid tests. We had a nice visit we sat inside in the back dining room by ourselves until fairly large group came in found out it was a Memorial after a funeral. It quieted down so we went Out back to the outside deck and sat for a while. It was getting late I told her we could almost have dinner now, she said it was tempting. I texted Jim and said I was leaving soon. He said when he got home the camper smelled so bad of gas. I was so shocked but as soon as he said it I remembered I was cleaning a little and had wiped around the stove and obviously hit the button on. But never smelled it before I left. and I'm known for my great sense of smell, WAS so shocking. Luckily nothing bad happened. And he aired it out I never smelt it when I got home.

I worked late on Wednesday the 21st from 4 to 8 with a reminder to myself not to feed Jim after midnight.

 Today Thursday 22nd Jim's cardioversion procedure. before we left  I listened to his heart .  it does sound very abnormal . We arrived before noon. it was probably the scariest procedure either one of us ever had to do. First they put a tube down your throat and are able to take pictures from the back of your heart. Then they have you all hooked up to monitors and shock your heart back into rhythm. I was all prepared to do some paperwork for work. I got all set up in his recovery room and in less than 10 minutes the doctor came back and said everything went great. he was back in rhythm. We ended up going back to Ruby Tuesday's. For a late lunch. when we got home I listened to his heart again, even to me it was a huge difference. the only problem they said he might have is you get what looks like a sunburn where the monitor shocked you back in rhythm. one on his chest and one on your back.
This is his BACK. He said that one did not bother him as much as the one on his chest hurt. It looks like a butt shot but I promise you it's his back, LOL.

Friday October 23rd he was supposed to take it a little easy today, as he did  take off from work today. He wanted to install the new steps. and as us wives usually do Nancy volunteered Neil to come over to help him. which was very nice of them both to offer. They waited till I got home from work at 3. one because I had the steps in my car and 2, they were away for the day also. SO they got a later start on a big project than they normally would have. But they got it done. Thank you again guys here's the before picture and some action shots,  and the  after. You can see the Reebok step we used and the yellow levelling blocks, and Jim's collection of RED rugs, he LOVE's them, they have a nice thick rubber backing. We can get rid of all that, well NOT the rugs.I put the old carpet back on new steps. the new set has five we have to get a new one. The steps are called glowstep Revolution they are able to level the feet independently. You can click One Step Up and go to 4 if not needed. very stable since they touch the ground and very lightweight. Made of 100% aircraft grade lightweight aluminum.

Saturday October 24th I had off of work and we plan to staying home all day, getting ready for our last move tomorrow. As Hershey Thousand Trails closes oh, they are only staying open for people with seasonal sites this year. I was reading a little on Facebook this morning and saw that Marcia Hopper  mentioned whoopie pies, and I said if you have whoopie pies you must be in our neck of the woods. She told me where she was they were planning on going right through our area on 322. we chatted back and forth for a long time. When Jim got up, he slept in today, I said how far is Denver from here,  long story short we planned on meeting for lunch later. View out our door at TTH.  As Jim packed up I ran to Country View store for a few things. Cool produce Got a shoofly pie that we could share since they're trying food from our area. I asked at the store if they could park their 5th wheel there while we went to lunch they said we could. wish I would have got a picture of their rig. there full time for 4 years now also. we picked them up in our car went to Quentin Tavern had a wonderful chat we had met them at the Escapees Bash in Arizona. she told us how they had two kids a boy and a girl and they were married to siblings which was pretty cool. they talked about how they met in college. 
Marcia and Jeff Hopper 

Sunday October 25 we moved for last time back to Pa Dutch TT.
 The move went well,  Sundays it really empties out here.

Tuesday October 27 I had a nail appointment at 4. We had to drop the truck off. Both places are out in Bethel, close together. Near where the house was.
After work Jim went home to shower. I told him when I was almost finished and he planned to meet me out there. I called him when I was done I was in the car he said he was coming up the highway so I pulled out at the same time he was going by and snuck in right behind him. it's saved him from coming all the way into the nail salon. After we dropped the truck we had planned to eat dinner at Esther's restaurant. They were closed on Monday and Tuesdays we did not know that. so we ended up going up to Moose's LZ in the gap. He can get the ribs that he likes so much because they only serve them after 4. we took a lot of leftovers home and ate a little later than we'd like to but it was great.

Thursday  the 29th
During the day I was going to make my last batch of applesauce. when I went to check the box outside this is what I found. I had enough to make one more large batch and a small apple pie. There was only six left in the Box. I'm guessing a squirrel was my Apple Bandit, wish I had a trail cam on it to see for sure.

  Jim had a follow-up at the cardiologist office with a PA. he came right from work appointment was at 4. I met him there. we had a lovely consultation with a new lady, Terra Sholley we never met before. she was wonderful very personable. We had a nice chat and she gave us some sample bottles of Xarelto trying to get a good collection of them before we leave, all our pills.

This month as usual I cooked up a storm. I made two batches of applesauce, have a lot in the freezer. Made an applesauce cake, made a spaghetti squash and butternut squash, made butternut squash soup with that. Made Jim a beef roast, made beef noodle soup with the leftovers. Made a small apple pie, and a casserole I like with pasta bacon onion and sweet potato in a creamy cheesy sauce. all that will keep us going for a while I froze a lot of it.

Jim had a few fires this month TOO 


 I worked Friday and Saturday happy Halloween when I got home Saturday they were setting up for trick or treat, we took a golf cart ride to look at everything then we got out of town.Those 2 were BOTH  animated and scary looking
Another fall tree at TTH
