I am still kicking. I remember posting on July 3. We were going to dgd18 birthday party that evening. And THEN............
Dh came home from work and told me he had bought the RV that he had lowballed a bid on. They had rejected that, so he upped it $3000.00. The guy emailed him to call him. The guy told him that the only way he could sell it for that price was to take it off ebay and save those fees. This business had this RV listed on multiple sites. Anyway, dh was suppose to wire them the money and they would deliver it to Wichita. I told dh that if he wired that money and they were dishonest and he lost the money and had no RV, that was his chance and we don't have the money for another one. So dh called them and told them that he would fly down and pick it up. With the holiday, he had to wait until Saturday to get a cashiers check to take. He flew to Chattanooga on Sunday. The RV was in Georgia, so they picked him up at his hotel and took him to their business. They did an inspection and fixed anything that needed done, showed him how to do everything and he left there at 4 in the afternoon. He was on the road for almost 26 hours and slept 2 of those. Once he was home he told me that for the first 50 - 100 miles, he was ready to get out, leave it along side the road and fly home. He was on interstate and the semis flying past him on both sides were un-nerving at first. So now we are the proud owners
of an RV. He has spent a lot of time washing it, waxing it, cleaning the inside which was clean but needed his attention to detail. Now he is working on the chrome wheels and has 1 left. We have rented a space to store it. A local car dealership has a large fence area that they rent space to store anything with wheels. It is not covered but our space is between 2 RVs, so that should help protect it from the sun.
We are hoping the title arrives soon because the temporary tag expires August 6. Dh leaves July 30 and will be gone until at least August 10. on his Pacific NW motorcycle trip. The RV will need to be inspected before we can get a tag, but it can't be inspected without the title.
Dd2 and her dh closed on the sale of their house on Thursday. On Friday, dd2 noticed a rash on her stomach and back that hurt. Yep, she was diagnosed with shingles. Her life is constant stress, most of it self-induced, so it is no wonder that she was hit with the shingles.
Even though I wasn't posting, I managed to keep cuop until last Thursday. So last night I read 5 days of posts and told myself that I had to post today.
Thursday when I came in from watching the girls while dd2 and her dh were closing, I noticed that dhs older dsis had called. I called her back and asked what she knew. Her answer was "nothing good'. I said, "it's younger dsis, isn't it?" She said yes and asked how I knew. I told her that I had been having a bad feeling about younger dsis's health and had not even voiced it to anyone, praying that I was wrong. She has ovarian cancer. She had a hysterectomy, in her 20's and they had left 1 ovary. She has an appointment with a surgeon this Friday. Her dr. said she will need surgery and 6 months of chemo. At the time she was diagnosed it hadn't spread. I hope they get on the surgery before it does. So now each of dh's dsisters have had 2 bouts of cancer. Each cancer was different and their dm died of pancreatic cancer. Even though I had had the bad feeling, I was reeling after the news. This dsisil is widowed and lives with her dd, dsil and 2 dgds. Her dd is a nurse and a very caring dd.
Db called today. He is about at his wit's end, with the war dm has declared on his dw. He is irritated at both of them. Last night dm went to their house. Db was going to dig potatoes for dm. She is going on an almost 2 week trip with her db. He will be in an archery tournament. They are taking his camper and according to her she will fix their supper and the rest of the time, she will be relaxing. Anyway db's dgd asked dm if she was eating with them and dm said she hadn't been asked. Dsisil told her they had plenty and she had already set the table with a plate for her, so she ate with them. Later while they were at the garden, dm asked db if he had a trailer she could borrow. He told her he did and that he could pick it up each day and haul it to the dump. She had a fit, she doesn't want anyone going thru her stuff. He told her if it made her happy, he would bring it to his house and burn it. She didn't agree to that either. We don't think she has any intention of doing anything with her mess. Ugghhhh
So that is my story.
As I read 5 days of posts, I had all kinds of comments and can not think of a single one right now. Imagine that..........
So my day was much like Kathryn's: 
So she will be going along on errands and helping clean the house, I guess.
