Friday 1-27 Doing This and That

Having Fun

We have been gone for a month so there were things that we needed to do. When we got home we opened the refrigerator and the pantry and both were almost empty. This morning we loaded Flo into the car and headed to HEB to do grocery shopping. Flo was one happy dog to be able to go for a ride. Before going to HEB we stopped by the post office to restart our mail, Larry took a couple of minutes to thank the post master for agreeing to hold the mail for a couple of months. After doing our grocery shopping we swung by The Dollar Tree and picked up some bleach for the septic. While I was putting the groceries away Larry got Flo out of the car and put the bleach in the tank. It was nice and cool outside so Flo decided to stay outside for awhile. The Minnie's tags are due in February and before getting the tags you have to have the vehicle inspected. Larry and I loaded into the Minnie and went to Valvoline Instant Oil Change. The guys were happy to see us. It was cold and they were trying to keep warm. Here in Bell County you only have to get your vehicle inspected and it doesn't have to go through emissions so it doesn't take long. 

Getting the Minnie inspected

The next project was emptying the holding tanks. Before we left the valley Larry had filled them about half full with water, he also added soap and softener figuring this would help to clean them. When we had the house built we put in an RV parking spot right next to the house that includes a dump for the RV. After dumping the tanks we decided to take the car dolly back to storage. Larry tries to take the truck for a spin every month so this was the prefect opportunity. He backed the car out of the garage and put it behind the Minnie, then he backed the truck out and turned it around, next he pushed the dolly out of the garage and put it on the hitch of the truck. Flo was asleep the whole time we were doing this. I gave her a snack and then Larry and I loaded into the truck and went to the storage center. 

After putting the dolly in the storage unit we went to town to renew the Minnie's tags. It's a little cheaper to go to town and it doesn't take long. When we got to the county building there were quite a few people there, surprising since we normally walk right up to the counter. We took a number and sat down, there were six people in front of us and we might have waited five minutes, love small town living.

Doing laundry

When we got back to the house I did four loads of laundry. While the laundry was doing it's thing I did dishes and worked out on my Wii Fit for a half hour. Then when dinnertime came around I barbecued cheese burgers.

Watching YouTube videos

In the evening we caught up with our YouTube videos. We had a busy day doing this and that. LIFE IS GOOD!!!!
