I slept pretty good without having any nasty dreams and woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed as the expression goes, ready to face the day. I always say that, but the truth is that I live an extremely comfortable and busy enough life along with my two little dogs. We do not want for anything as if we do, I go out and buy it. That plus I have a lot of friends here in the campground and we are never lonely.
Just recently, I was in Walmart’s and happened to be looking at men’s underwear and spotted some that caught my eye. Underwear is underwear so nothing much changes there except the patterns on the material which were bright and cheerful. I could not resist and bought two packs of four. Me and the dogs are the only ones who will know that I have on floral underwear.
We managed to cover a mile on our walkabout which was only around the campground and the outside roads with our first walk of the day. The weather was overcast, and I could feel raindrops in the wind although it never came on to rain properly. We hustled back and I made everybody breakfast including my own and then sat in front of the computer to play catch up with yesterday’s blog and the beginning of today.
I finished and posted yesterday and started today bringing us up to date, blog wise and then looked around for something else to do. We spent a couple of hours just lounging around until it was time to go out walking again. Incidentally, I really am a lazy bum as there are things to do in the RV such as tidy up and put some of the junk and paperwork out of the way. Tomorrow maybe? You know the old saying, “Tomorrow never comes”? That is what I am working on. That is why I could never live with another woman as I am way too untidy a person.
We walked around the park and managed to cover 1.3 miles. As long as I walk more than a mile, then I am satisfied because at least I am moving. More is better. A lot of it is because the dogs are not that good at walking. All Sandy wants to do is sniff everything for interesting smells and then take 5 minutes lingering over each one. Then when she discovers something, Mikey is right there with her. Well maybe it’s not that long but it sure seems like it.
We sat outside as we usually do if it is not too cold just watching the world go by. Not really much to watch as it is quiet in the campground most of the time. Eventually, we moved back indoors after bringing in the seed feeders and I fixed us all food.
Then, as usual, I watched a soccer game before sliding off to bed.

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Monday 04/15/2023
I slept well and awoke ready to face the day. We have no plans, so it all depends on what comes up through the course of the day.
Daniel stopped over early while I was still in my birthday suit, which is the way I sleep and shave to get ready for the morning. I hastily grabbed my towel, and we discussed James coming over to fix the hot water problem. No telling when that may happen. Incidentally, it is hard to shock Daniel.
After completing the usual morning rituals and dressed and ready to face the day, I harnessed up my little buddies and tied them to the table. Gary stopped by and said hello to them, and we chatted for a bit. He really is such a nice guy.
Then it was all about bird feeders as I filled them and hung them out in their special places. We went out walking around the park and managed to cover 0.8 miles on that first walk. Sandy was reluctant to go very far and as she governs almost everything we do; we just go along with her.
I made us all breakfast with mine different than theirs and Sandy half ate most of hers. She got the important part with her medicine on it which is really all that matters.
I looked at the clock and it said that it was 12:00 pm already and I had no idea where the time had gone. We did not have anything planned or anything that needed taking care of and consequently, it was a very slow day, and we did a lot of sitting around doing nothing. I like to sit quietly with my eyes closed but not asleep and just relax. The dogs were in seventh heaven as they sat with me, usually one on either side and they too go to sleep.
I decided to drive in to Tractor Supply as I needed a couple of plant supports and while I was there, I purchased more wild bird feed. I found what I wanted in the plant supports but they are not as good as the two I already have. Much thinner wire making them hard to push into the ground without bending them. I tried to cut them down to the size I wanted but unfortunately, the blade in my hacksaw is worn out and I need a new one. Incidentally, I now have three 20lb bags of bird seed, so we are OK for a week or so.
Back in the RV, I took the dogs out walking and we managed to cover 2.6 miles for the day. When we got back, we sat on the deck and watched the world go by until it was almost dark and then I brought in the bird feeders for one more day.
The rest of the day was spent as it usually is with me feeding the dogs and then myself and watching TV. Normally, I try to go to bed between 9:00 pm and 10:30 pm but last night, I got into a movie, and it was 12:30 before we crawled in the sack.
