Gary’s post: The last week in February. We’ve been here for almost a month now. We both have NM drivers’ licenses; our cars have NM plates, and our bodies are adjusting to the dryness and high desert climate. I’m finally getting settled in and working on focusing on the moment and not everything else. Once a Type A, always a Type A, but with some effort, you can learn to relax.
Moved our RV yesterday, tons of fun. Took a couple of tries to get it located exactly where we wanted it. Kept getting it slightly crooked, so that was a bit frustrating. Got water hooked up, power and just waiting on getting a holding tank installed later this week. Propane folks will move the big tank today so we’ll have heat and can cook!
Today I need to book work travel for the 12th of March. Not excited about it but it’s necessary. I also need to book my travel to Seattle in April to see my Cardiologist, going to do that today also. Time to focus on the little things and get them wrapped up.
Wendy and friends are planning on wine tasting tour to Walla Walla in May. Our job is to arrange a tasting tour. It’s not going to be cheap, but it’ll be fun. I’ll focus on taxes next weekend and get them done. We’ll use the refund to pay for it.
This week the dealership said the EV should be in, but car dealerships are notoriously bad at customer service. We’ll see how good this one is. The Volvo dealership in Bellevue was terrible, but the dealership in Seattle was awesome. It’s so hit and miss. We’ll see if Corley’s Volvo in Albuquerque is any better.
Going to sign off early today, not much more to say and not feeling great. Still have a really sore shoulder and joints. Need to sort this out as it’s impacting my activities and mood. My daughter, Lauren, hit me with the fact that my oldest, Matt will be 40 this Sunday. Wow! It’s really hard to fathom that as I still remember when he was a baby. Love that boy and miss him and his family. They are so busy that we just fit in between the time slots.
Have a great day everyone! Take care.
