Hello

Well I am alive and kickin that’s for sure….been  busy week since I have arrived…and I have internet!!!!   YEAH  Fell like I am a little closer to being a home, just a little…LOL

these are a few pictures I took on the way down….my front seat where my co pilot generally sits….full of CD’s and my birthday roses….and my dog….wish she could of helped drive…LOL

Really early on the north side of the Grapevine pass headed south toward LA…..cold, light dusting of snow and beautiful!!!

Thanks everyone for the well wishes and I have some blogs to catch up on…LOL   Since I have arrived I have had 1/2 my floors done, the men doing the  laminate where so quick and efficient and did a wonderful job,

 The vinyl guys…well the head guy…I fired him this afternoon…..lets be honest, I have a very small amount of vinyl to put down and in 2 full days he was here for 4.5 hours and what little he did do, well lets say it was sub-par to be nice…he would leave some poor green-horn here, who was on his phone and smoking most the time because there was no material to work with….anyway, my brother is a contractor and he send him packing….his boss will be here with a crack team to get it done in the morning….I felt horrible, as I don’t wish BS on any one…but enough was enough….so by 5p tomorrow I will have more pictures of the floor….how exciting….at least I am sitting in the living room on a  chair and I brought some plant stands, so using that as a table top…..the curtains are up, and the RV is almost all unpacked…I even emptied several boxes today….the movers picked up our furniture at home and my cousin has almost finished moving in….so all’s really going ahead as planned and my husband leaves in the morning….YAY  I am ready for a little back up down here, my poor brother has been a Godsend to me….next month this time it will just be a faint memory…

Its been raining almost nonstop since I have arrived…everyone is in shock at how much rain we are getting in the desert!!!   El Nino is the culprit according to the weatherman…..and lets just say they are the youngest bunch of news casters  I have come across…funny how you get used to your own channel newscasters and trust them….

Well food goes okay then night comes….I am not sure why I can’t hold it together in the late hours….I just need to try harder….I am working out around here, bagging leaves (7 big bags), raking up the yard daily, unpacking the RV, carrying boxes, just dealing with life….but not the right kind of exercise….I am not being hard on myself, but I need to get it under control….its not rocket science its healthy eating…its still easy to overeat even if its healthy!!!!

As soon as the house gets settled I will go check out the gym….I am ready.!  I was really looking forward to some warm weather….my arthritis is not real happy….I should be careful what I wish for, as it will be summer in the desert before  I know it!!!

Well it is past my bedtime…LOL  going to bed before 8p – up at the crack of dawn to deal with floor men….soooo Happy to have internet, I promise to get to all your blogs in the next couple days…

so until tomorrow….kat.
