Another day, another dollar

Dear Family and Friends,
Really a good day in spite of having to work all day. I know the dogs appreciated me being right here with them. Ken and I walked and then I discovered that the garage had not been picked up. When I opened my mail I found a nice notice that without payment they could no longer collect it so a quick call to the office and a nice lady took payment over the phone, its a new thing for them just two weeks old. It was great and later in the day the truck came by and dumped the can and all is well with the world. Then there was the data guy Eric. Eric needs a bit more personality. I'm guessing that he is about as exciting as moss growing on the underside of a tree trunk. Anyway he became happier with $413 as a partial payment. How easy the money goes and how hard to find it.
For breakfast I made oats, stripples, 1/2 piece of toast from my bread and a tiny glass of Welches grape juice. Lunch was a griller and dinner was some leftovers, brown rice, cottage cheese and some none fat milk, a toast with fresh tomato and Greta on Fox.
This evening I loaded up 8 dining room chairs, two tables, a coffee pot and a food processor that we found that is a perfect match for Nikki's Hamilton Beach mixer, bright red. All of this fit easily in the motorhome. After we unloaded everything in their garage Nikki brought me back home after I parked the motorhome in its slot at the RV parking lot. Last night I managed to go to bed with the garage door wide open. Ray was kind enough to discover it and close it during the night. I'm really enjoying the fresh clean water from the R/O system. Its nice when something works out well.
Now its time for bed. Ken and I walk at 6 in the morning as I have to be in Stockton at 8:30 for a meeting with the group that is making the 12 million dollars program to buy foreclosed houses work. I'll learn more about what is expected from me. I am so thankful that I get to take part in this important community program and the income will be nice too. I'm ready for a break.

So good night to each and everyone of you. Dana and Ronnie are vacationing at a casino somewhere two hours from their house, Jason and Jo are in LA at education meetings and I'm stuck here at home, actually quite pleased to be here but sure wish the furnace would kick in. It was 63 this morning and the dogs were shivering until I turned the Miller space heater on in the family room. They love it and so do I.

love
