"Things to Do" Lists Are Getting Done

Mary's days lately go like this: See the doctor - check, see the dermatologist - check, see the dentist - check, get a mammogram - check, see the sleep specialist - Monday, go to my Weight Watcher's meetings - check, do some weeding - check, alter and repair some clothes - check, continue gathering items we will need in the RV - check.........

Ed's been busy trading cars and such. We decided that having 3 cars was a bit much so he researched and traded his Prius for a Chevy Malibu, which can be towed 4-wheels-down. The Ford Explorer is now for sale and available after we return from our RV rallies about the middle of June. During the time we're gone, the Chevy will have the tow bracket installed. We'll be stopping in Kansas City to have the brake light kit installed.

He placed an ad in the newspaper, which started today, for his mower. A phone call woke us at 8:15 a.m. The guy came right over, tried the mower and bought it! That surely was an easy sell and it brought enough to cover what Ed had paid for the mower and front end bucket about 2 years ago. He plans to buy a mower that's not so expensive to have for the young man who's going to mow our 2 acres. We're staying with our plan not to have a lawn so we only mow our "pasture" a few times each summer. We're sooo pleased that Grant and Morgan Rhodes will be taking that job off Ed's list of Things to Do.

Our departure for our trip out West will be in early July. I'm starting to get excited and am looking forward to hitting the road for more Angelil Adventures!
