I haven’t posted for a few days. Sitting in the same RV park for three months makes it difficult to come up with new posts sometimes. I had another issue over the weekend that kept me from sitting at my computer.
Friday we had another visit from the UPS driver. Donna asked for Uggs for Christmas. Her feet have been cold. Santa came early as I ordered the Uggs from Zappos and had them shipped overnight. Two other packages were delivered as well. I was surprised to see the creeper and mechanics stool I ordered from Sears. They offered free shipping and the order arrived in one day!
I stacked the boxes from Sears on the scooter and took them to the trailer. It wasn’t piled as high as the last time I did this, but Donna took a picture this time.
Saturday was a rainy, blustery day. We had showers off and on all day. I spent most of the day inside our coach. At one point, after I’d been sitting at my computer for awhile, I stood up and had a back spasm. This resulted in severe pain in my lower back. I could hardly move about. I made myself as comfortable as I could.
Donna cooked spiced pork tenderloin with maple chipotle sauce for dinner. She served it with acorn squash and roasted cauliflower. I was never a big fan of squash or cauliflower, but now I really like both. It must have something to do with the way Donna prepares it.
After dinner, we watched an old movie that we like – Captain Ron. It’s a comedy starring Kurt Russell and Martin Short.
Since we arrived in San Diego, I’ve had a few people tellĀ me that I look like Walter White, the lead character in the series Breaking Bad. Neither of us had ever seen the program. Donna ordered the first season (2008) from NetFlix. We are hooked and have already ordered more episodes.
Yesterday my back problems continued. I tried to stretch a little and walk it off. It wasn’t any better. I decided to lie low and rest my back. If I laid on my back and bent my knees, I had some relief. I spent the day watching football. Some interesting games yesterday. Detroit played in a snow bowl in Philadelphia! The New York Giants came to San Diego where the skies were clear. San Diego played really well and won 37-14. Seven of nine San Diego possessions resulted in scoring drives.
Today, my back is much better. I might go for a bike ride later. We’re making plans for our exit from San Diego. We’ve booked a week at the Hidden Shores RV Resort. This is a true RV resort with a large clubhouse, restaurant, heated swimming pool and Jacuzzi on site. It’s located near the Imperial Dam on the Arizona side of the Colorado River, just north of Yuma. It was recommended by my old friend, Debbie Taylor-Bednarski. She and her husband, Bruce, have an RV parked there. We’ll arrive on Friday the 27th and stay there until Thursday, January 2nd. Debbie, Bruce and possibly her sister, Kim and her husband Pat, will be there. From there, we are undecided at this point.
WE so enjoy reading the posts. It is so amazing what we all have in common. Our favorite movie of all time is “Captain Ron.” We used to sail a lot when we liked in Mn. As mentioned before we are about 2 years away from my husbands retirement but plan to buy a coach before hand. He loves football and I love music! He knows I will miss my piano and before ya’ll had mentioned the keyboard my husband said we will be getting one and have to find a convenient storage place for it. He has turned into the gourmet cook and I don’t mind being pampered. Take care of the back. Doug had to have back surgery 3 years ago for a herniated disc because he didn’t !
So enjoying the posts and all the information.
Blessings,
