Our temp made it down to 28 degrees last night, but didn’t cause us any problems since I had disconnected our shore power earlier. I also turned on the lights in our basement compartments to add some extra heat to our water bay just in case.
We don’t use heaters in our bedroom on cold night, instead relying on our Touch of Class heated mattress pad that we bought at Sam’s Club in 2010, and it’s worth great ever since.
With its dual controls, we turn it on an hour or so before bedtime so it’s warm and toasty when slip under the covers. And Karma has discovered that the bed is warm, so she’s already waiting us on the bed and then snuggles up at our feet, or lays on our feet sometimes.
About 1:30 Jan and I headed out for the afternoon. Our first stop was at Lone Star Real Estate to pick up our Amazon orders and also drop off a plate of Jan’s Christmas cookies for Nancy Christian, who also owns our RV park. A really nice lady.
Then it was on to Bella Sera, our favorite local Italian, or ‘EyeTalian’ place as they say here in Kenedy, TX. Besides having another delicious pizza,
we also dropped off a plate of Jan’s cookies for Candace, our favorite local waitress.
After our usual great meal, and leftovers for later, our next stop was right up the road at Great Clips for my quadannual haircut, which obviously didn’t take long at all.
After my clip job it was off to the nearby HEB to retrieve a lost package of Hawaiian Savory Butter Rolls. We purchased a package of them yesterday but they never followed us home. So I went back today to see if maybe they didn’t even make it into our cart.
As it turned out they hadn’t, and had been turned in. So we got our missing rolls as well as a second package for our trouble. Nice!
Then after gas and a car wash, our last stop was at the PO to send off the last of our Christmas Priority Mail envelopes. Finally getting home, we delivered the last of the cookies to our fellow gate guards on either side of us, and we were done.
A couple of things that came in our Amazon orders this afternoon were upgrades to our Ozark Trail Mug.
I got a tighter-fitting lid that also seals the drinking spout,
and a nice handle too.
Tomorrow and Wednesday we’ll probably just stay around the rig and goof off until I’m back on a gate Thursday night.
