Whatever Works

Not everyone has a grand camper and nobody gets snooty-because there are as many uses and users as you can imagine. People who drive behemoths sometimes cast an envious eye on the camper with a light tow and decent gas mileage, or the ability to maneuver. Some people only need a dry place to sleep, others need a mini-home. Some like to live simply and others need all their toys. Practically everybody has some ingenious adaptations that suit their particular needs.

Another slowish day here- we started out wet and it gradually got nicer. I didn't open the Internet terminal because it was too wet this morning. I have switched my drink of choice to Rooibos red tea with a dollop of honey-home/Sun-brewed in plastic water bottles. No caffeine might be slowing me down. But I feel well.

Fortuitously, I made a big dinner. Pork chops-skinny ones, were on sale the other day and it seemed a good idea to cook the whole package in barbecue sauce. Greg and Lew and the dogs stopped by after their jaunt to Okeechobee today so I was able to nuke some potatoes and serve tough little pork chops, pork and beans and a salad. I was glad to see them. They have zest. Dogs did all right too.

I have been carrying a dead cell phone around apparently. When I discovered it, I plugged it in and found Lori had called this morning. We connected and will do something this week. They had friends- 3 sets, all of whom were in their wedding, arrive in town Friday. I didn't expect to hear from them this soon. I asked Lori if they laughed until their stomachs ached and she said yes. Sounds like it was a boost all around. That makes me happy too.

Tried to shower earlier but all showers in our building were occupied. I am going to wander up there in the dark and hope we don't get another power bump.
