Sunday Farewell RV Garden Party

Sunday Farewell RV Garden Party

Sunday March 27, 2022

This am woke up at 6:30, my right leg knee pit, as I call it, hurt in bed. I got up and didn't hurt rest of the day. 

I got the coffee pot going. It was a cool morning, but I did have the fireplace on overnight. So it wasn't as cold as the night before. I wanted to make a few things in the convection Microwave before it got to hot outside.

First thing I want mixed up a pumpkin chocolate chip baked oatmeal for breakfast. Bottom left, Then a bakers dozen of pumpkin banana CC cookies, had leftover pumpkin to use up. Then 2 large pieces of unfried chicken, for later.. Last for our party tonight savory zucchini pie  muffins.

Jim was up pretty early too, guess that I was making alot of kitchen noises. He does like that kind of noise.

Cooking took awhile. We also washed sheets and couple loads of towels. Hung outside. Made bed together. He washed some dishes too.

As I was finishing up we started a new original Netflix movie the Adam Project starring Ryan Gosling. Was really good can't  go wrong with  Ryan.

Then went for a Buggy ride.  Then we chilled a bit inside while Jim fell asleep, he took a little nap.

Our other neighbor on the other side of us. They bought this old portable square gazebo that the park model had, that they prepared on Saturday to move soon. This is before picture 

This the After

Wow what a difference.

The one neighbor did it for the other for there birthday suprise. How nice, they worked on it all day today. They did a fabulous job.

Then we got ready I heated up the zucchini pie, muffins and made a sign so people would know what it was.

We had lots of good food and a few  treats. Was great to all get together. Met more of the hubby's that don't always come. Can't believe so many are leaving soon.  We never stayed in TTO Florida this late in the season.

Our group picture of all of us.

We said our goodbyes as I will see most of them tomorrow at walk fit  / line dance. They have a great large site, with bath house next door, great entertainment space.

We took the long way home on the golf cart. Sat outside a bit more, such a beautiful early evening.

We went in Jim wanted to watch the hockey game that started already. Yea they Lost.

Bryan called, he went outside they talked awhile while drinking.

Yard Sale, Happy Hour with neighbors

Yard Sale, Happy Hour with Neighbors 

Saturday March 26, 2022

I was up first this AM,  made coffee put heat on and got under my blanket. Said 63 degrees downstairs. I heard some noise outside. There was alot of equipment and people out ripping the siding off the park model next to us. I went got after I got dressed to see what was going on. I asked if they are Moving it,  he said not today. Was fun to watch.

Needless to say it was Jim's wake up call.

He got up and we started moving to get ready to go up and set up for yard sale. There was 6 different seller this time. Always nice to make a few bucks and sell some stuff. And have really nice people to talk to.

I came back with Linda next door. Jim helped me we put everything away. If you don't put things away right away, RV'S can get really messy quick.. Between last night and today. Plus Jim made the bed and washed the dishes. 

I had lunch Jim had a meatloaf sandwich earlier. We relaxed and watched Big Sky. Did blog stuff.

Then I started cooking, made hamburger macaroni soup and new potatoes and corn in IP for dinner to go with the sausage he grilled yesterday.

We went over to our neighbors, they invited us over for some dip she made and we had a great conversation on RV life, we had  Alot of laughs we stayed a few hours. I went over to get Jim's pill and put corn and potatoes on. Took them so of the soup made. Thanks Dennis and Linda Price.

We got home just after 7 had dinner washed dishes we relaxed for the rest of the evening.

Jim checked his email and we got a text from Louis from Auto and Truck Solutions that the truck would be finished Monday after he did a final check on it. That is wonderful. So relieved. Hopefully we will be back on schedule.

Keeping Busy Today

Keeping Busy Today

Friday March 25, 2022

This morning I got ready went up to line dance. Almost 12:30 I headed back and I picked up Joan and dropped her off first.

When I got home ate some of my cauliflower rice quinoa veggie mix. Then we got into the golf cart and took it to Publix next door to TTO. It only took 7 minutes to get there.

We are very close to the road and just went out the back gate.

We arrived and came all the way down the sidewalk and parked in the mulch just off the walk way in the shade. Then we went into the sub place. Called Philly Steak & Wings,  there so he could order a cheesesteak for lunch.

He waited on the golf cart while I went into the salon to see if I could get an appointment for my nails next week. The place where my MIL went last year, for hair and nails was next door, they closed. The place that I went onto only does hair. Now I need a plan B.

Then went into Publix alone too. Ready didn't need that much but was fun. I probably was in there about 45 minutes. We drove home then. Saw Dennis on our way out. We actually beat him home. He said the traffic was heavy.

On the way home I stopped traffic on the long TTO driveway, it's almost a mile long, so a large turtle could cross safely.

We got home, put stuff away. Then I put 2 glitter tattoo's on. Then we took the golf cart around.

Jim grilled some chicken and sausage and we ate an  early dinner. I got ready for our line dance party.

Sat out with Dennis and Linda for a bit and chatted. Then we went home so Jim could put his boots and jeans on. 

Stewart and Sallie stopped on there bikes to say Hi.

We had to go they didn't want to keep us from our party.

We headed up to the party, early so we could get a seat. Good we went early.

Was really fun, Jim and I were able to dance way more then I thought he would.

Don't know what the lady did in the middle of the picture to her leg, but she really wanted to dance.

Arrived back home about 9:30, I was really pooped. Texted with my brother Drew, and I went to bed about 1030. He was watching hockey.

Thursday March 24, 2022

This am I was up first. Jim got up and washed his hair in the sink. Neil was picking him up to go for breakfast. The other day when he was going to take Jim to give the diesel guy money, he thought they could go for breakfast after, but he never said anything, SO when he didn't have to go, Neil never said anything, he really wanted to go for breakfast. SO  when they told us about that. So they planned to go this morning. They went to Eggs Up Grill in Winter Garden.  He stopped at the store got me 3 items and beer on there way home. They left just after 8:30, and returned about 11:10. I asked him take a picture of course he didn't.  I asked what he ate he said egg white omelet with turkey bacon. Lol don't believe it for a minute.  

We had some pretty heavy rain then. I made quinoa and cauliflower rice for me. 

Nancy called she needed celery, her's had a big worm in it.. Went for a ride and took it over to them. Jim said yeah we have a purpose. Had a nice visit, can't believe they leave tomorrow.

Got home later took the golf cart up to the Italian food truck.

We had shrimp with penna pasta, lasagna bread and we shared a piece of brownie cheesecake. 

Put leftovers away, in the rest if the night.

Big Bucks and a buggy ride

Big Bucks and a Buggy Ride

Tuesday March 22. 2022

I heard Jim get up at 7:30. He started coffee and walked up the road to meet the truck mechanic to give his wife a down payment so he could order parts for the truck. Walking back got a good picture of the FW with the morning sunshine hitting it.

I was up an hour later. I made us breakfast.

Later Jim ordered Papa John's for 5:30 dinner.

Jim was texting the diesel guy about what we're going to order, though about a larger 70 gal fuel tank, was 2K, and could really delay our timeline. So will keep what we have and just drop it and clean it out. Also a prevention kit too, I think he said yes to that.

We had leftovers for lunch. Then after 2 we went for a buggy ride. Saw this cool eagle kite. 

Bet it keeps birds and squirrels away. Looks cool when flying. 

We finally saw another Switch Crew flag. I stopped we said hi and talked for a bit. His name was Earl Grinnell. His wife wasn't home yet.

We stopped by the lake again and sat out on two chairs at the end of the pier. 

Was really beautiful. 

But really hot out. Everytime we stop and talk to someone I have to find some shade.

We went by and saw that the produce guy was here. 

We found zucchini, tomatoes, corn on the cob, blueberries, strawberries was really nice for 17.00.

Then we stopped with Neil and Nancy and said hi.

 Here's a picture of her beautiful flowers. We had a nice visit, can't believe they leave this Friday.

On the way back home, soon time for pizza delivery.

Saw a couple we had talked to in Wauchula they definitely remembered our golf cart. We told them about K and J meat and produce, they just wanted to say they went a couple times and they loved it so much, SO funny.

We got home and Jim stayed out waiting for the pizza guy.

After we ate, he went out and I watched a few of my shows. He came in watched Hockey game for rest of the evening.

We watched the rest of Idol and then Jim fell asleep.

When he awoke we went for a golf cart ride. We stopped and said hi to Neil and Nancy. Stopped by lake was beautiful out, water was choppy pretty though.
