SOME PICS!!!

This picture of the gloves is especially for Sherri. Just after I bought my Sunnybrook, Sherri called to give me some real fabulous pointers as a new RV owner. One of the best suggestions she gave me was to buy a pair of rubber gloves to handle the sewage tubing. So I went out and bought this really fancy pair with the cuffs. Sherri, are you jealous, or what????? Here's my dining table with my candles, my box with dominoes in it, and my large cedar box with my cards, my score pad and some pens. It helps to keep everything handy and organized at the same time. You can see I get some really beautiful lighting depending on what time of day it is. I love sitting at the table in the morning, having my first cup of coffee and journaling or reading. This beautiful angel used to be on my porch and now blesses my camper. She was given to me by my friend, Alpha, who lives in Florida now and was very instrumental in helping me decide to buy the camper. I spent several days with Alpha, the end of March, first of April, and was amazed at how beautiful a space she found for herself, a virtual garden of Eden. She lives in a gorgeous gated community close to Flagler Beach, Florida. Every afternoon we were greeted by giant plumes of water which came on to water the golf course. If the sun was just right, we got rainbows every afternoon. Not a bad way to end the day!!! I took this picture especially for Coley. You may or may not know, but the time on the clock is what photographers do to indicate a "smile" or happy picture. Coley do you see the two shawls you left with me. They have a new home now just inside the door. And this is a towel my ex-mother-in-law had a laugh over. I had this towel in my bathroom for several years and when I packed up my things to go into this camper, obviously I thought this would be cute. I'm still not sure what the real truth is, PMS or personality???!!! Finally, this is my bed cover. I've had this piece of material for quite some time and when I was unpacking all my "stuff", I found this and decided to use it on my bed, rather than running out to buy something else. It's very lightweight, and fits in with my "sunnybrook" camper. I figure I can use this all year, except in the coldest months, which will not see me camping anyway.

So these are just a few pictures to show you how easily my things have fit into this new space. It feels so good to nest in this space, making it feel like my home away from home!!!


I've had a couple of visitors and my friends, Cathy and Ted, will be here April 25-28th camping just across from me. My home is open to all, so take a few days and come play with me!!!!

I'm still around!!

Dear Family and Friends: I've now spent the better part of two hours trying to figure out how to download pictures from my phone to this blog. There is really nothing more frustrating that the realization you're not smarter than a computer (or a 5th grader either)!!! How is it that we've gotten to this point. No longer do we simply take some pictures, deliver them to the local Walgreen's, and have prints made to sent to family and friends. Now everything is digital and no one actually sees a printed copy of a picture unless they also have printing capabilities on their computer and can print one for themselves. My peaceful, calm morning has now been turned into one of frustration and feelings of lack!!! Once again I've run into this mountain and I don't know how to get on the other side. AAARRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! So, just to let everyone know, I am here, Sardis Lake, Mississippi, enjoying the coolness of an April day, the wind is blowing, the temperature is 58 degrees and I'm still in my pajamas having my second cuppa (love the British). My djembe is calling to me, so I will probably finish this post and move into some drumming. That will teach this computer.... When I can get someone to show me how to move pictures from my phone to this blog, I'll put some photos in. Until then, stay well, live well, laugh often!!!!
