Not much news…

Thursday, September 29, 2011

Things have been pretty quiet. Both our bikes are still at the Harley dealer…mine because of rain, Stu’s waiting for parts. Hoping they are both ready by the end of next week. We're both MORE than ready for some riding...need the bikes AND some good weather. LOL!

Stu’s PT appointments for his knees has been going well. He has one more week of them and then he will be on his own. Hoping he gets a printout of what he needs to do, then I can share with those interested. We are trying to ride the bicycles for 20-30 minutes on the days without PT. Then he has his colonoscopy next Monday afternoon. Joy, joy…

I have a chiropractor appointment tomorrow (Fri), hoping to get some relief from a big muscle spasm in my back that causes both numb areas and pain when riding for longer periods. Time will tell.

Sadie continues to have a blast with her sister, new photos in her blog. She ignores the mosquito bites, scratches and sore muscles. Must be nice to be young. LOL!

I’m testing out Live Writer again, hoping to use it for better blogging. Time will tell. I did update to the latest version.

Oh, for more exciting news….we’ve pre-ordered a new Kindle Touch 3G for me and Kindle Fire (tablet) for Stu. They won’t be released until late November so they will be our early Christmas presents to each other.

We’ve got dinner tonight with friends, dinner tomorrow night with family and then hoping for a weekend with some nice weather to enjoy. Time will tell…



Till next time - keep on rollin',

PS. Did a publish to draft from Live Writer and lost all my paragraph spacing. Any thoughts from those who use it?

I love my sissy….

Yup, it’s official…I do love my sissy, Fiona. We play and play and play…and then we sleep and sleep and sleep. Sometimes I don’t go home till way after dark…maybe someday daddy won’t come to get me and I can have a sleepover. THAT would be FUN!

Mommy SPECIALLY likes this picture…she says I’m smiling. [snicker]

I know mommy and daddy are going to dinner with their Thirsty Night friends….maybe they’ll let me have a sleepover?

Sniffing and lickingly yours,
Sadie


Fall is here....

Monday, September 26, 2011

We've had rain, rain and more rain...the only reason we aren't fussing is that both our bikes are in for service. Temps have dropped to 70-80's during the day and 50-60's at night. I noticed that the red maples are starting to turn...a sure sign of fall.


We're still clearing up chores and taking care of medical issues. Stu gets his colonoscopy done next Monday and I'm about to book an appointment with a chiropractor (first since I was a kid and tagged along with my aunt on her visits). Still have dermatologist appointments for both of us but looks like we'll be doing those in TN. Same for an ENT for me (hoarseness). Just not enough time....LOL!

For those interested, here are our Jell-O plans:
  • Leave for TN around Oct 16th
  • Leave TN for Branson MO around Nov 26th
  • Leave MO for New Orleans LA around Dec 13th
  • Leave LA for Summerdale AL around Dec 22nd
  • Leave AL for parts unknown in FL around Jan 6th
  • Spend all of Feb at Bee's RV Resort in Clermont FL (where we were last year)
  • Meander our way back to MD the first two weeks in March
  • Remain in MD from mid-March till July, then on to New England (all dependent on Stu's recovery)
  • Back to MD in mid-August (unless we never left) for annual stuff
  • Move to TN by mid-Sept when we will leave on the bikes for Route 66
  • Spend up to two months doing Route 66 & the return
  • By December, head to parts southwest

That's a rough outline and is definitely subject to change other than Feb-Jun which is pretty much burned into the sand. LOL!

Till next time - keep on rollin',
