I had originally scheduled us to spend two days in the Indianapolis area because our second day was supposed to be Sunday and I was hoping to go to church here. That fell through when the RV needed repair last week and everything got pushed back a day. Continue reading
This morning we called several service centers to see if they could work on our RV but they all said no. Finally, Mark asked at the office of the park we’re staying in to see if there was anyone they could recommend. They recommended a little shop not far from here so we took the RV to the shop.

Boy, do I have a story to tell!
Ever since Mark had his vertigo attack, people have been telling me about a new treatment for vertigo. Vertigo is caused by crystals in the fluid in your inner ear that somehow end up where they aren’t supposed to be, and the treatment is to move the head around in such a way as to get them back in place. Mark had a chiropractic appointment this morning and the chiropractor did this type of treatment for him. Continue reading
Yesterday (Monday) Mark had an orientation at the VA in the morning and I slept in. When I got up I waited till a reasonable hour Pacific Time and called my older sister to discuss some neat things I’ve been learning in my women’s Bible study. While I talked with her on the phone I had cold pizza from the day before and a Coke. After Mark’s orientation, he went to McDonalds for lunch and then made a couple “guy” stops. Little did we know that those lunches would be the last real meals we’d have for over 24 hours. Continue reading
Most of you may remember that my stepfather was diagnosed with a rare form of an aggressive thyroid cancer a few months ago. He finished his radiation treatments last month and has been waiting for the doctors to test to see how the cancer responded to the radiation. Here is a report I just got from my mom:
So many of you have told me since I’ve been blogging how much you enjoy my photos. I had noticed on our way down here that something was wrong with the pictures I was taking. When I started in the photo club here, I also observed that I was getting an E:6210 error message. I followed several suggestions the facilitator gave me, and someone else tried to help, but to no avail. Last week I took my camera to a camera shop someone in the club had recommended and learned that it had to do with the stabilization in my lens and would cost a minimum of $233 to fix it. No can do!

A number of you sent us Christmas cards that we haven’t received yet. We have been using the UPS Store in Bellingham, WA as our forwarding address for nearly a year. Problem is, they weren’t forwarding our mail to us. In the year, we might have gotten four or five mailings, if that. I could never reach them by phone, and I could seldom reach them by email. It has been a very frustrating experience. Continue reading
Today was the end of our first full week on the job, and it had its ups and downs. For starters, because we are working the later shift, we will be able to attend church here in the park every Sunday. Today was our first day there. Continue reading
One of the regulars from Housekeeping was out today, so Mark and I were assigned to cover her day. I thought that the two of us would get the work of one person done in half the time. That didn’t end up being the case. Continue reading
