A Busy Weekend . . .

I went into work today, not my usual schedule, because I’m taking off tomorrow so we can doggy-sit for Brandi’s canines up in Katy.




After I got home about 4:15, we headed back out about 4:45pm to meet Chris and Linda at our nearby favorite Pho 20 for dinner.

Turns out they liked it as much as we do, especially the House Crunch Salad with Miso Dressing and Tempura Crunchies.

It’s Chris’ new favorite.

Jan and I both got salads, while she got the Orange Chicken and I got a bowl of their delicious Won Ton Soup.




Chris and Linda split a Crunch Salad, an order of Sesame Chicken and an order of the Shrimp Spring Rolls.

All delicious.

As I mentioned, the upcoming weekend will be a busy one. Tomorrow afternoon we’re heading up to Brandi’s in Katy, with a stopover at PPL RV Sales to check on Nick Russell’s Winnebago Ultimate Advantage that he has for sale there.

We’ll be taking care of Miss Kitty and Baxter while Brandi et. all, are up in the Dallas area spending the the weekend at Great Wolf Lodge.

Then Saturday afternoon we’ll come back down here so Jan can attend her yearly Coding Coworker’s get-together. This is a group of Jan’s former coworkers that have gotten together every year since we started RV’ing in 2008. Sometimes they meet at a local restaurant, but this year they’re meeting at someone’s home, with everyone bringing a dish or two.

Then while Jan’s is partying, I’ll swing back by the rig to take care of Miss Karma and then grab a big bowl of Hot & Sour Soup for dinner before picking up Jan. Then it’s back up to Katy for the night. Wrapping up, Sunday it’s back down here.

Like I said, a busy weekend.

One other thing I’ll be doing this weekend is setting up a new laptop for a friend. She had it sent to Brandi’s so it will be waiting for me.

It’s a Dell Inspiron 15” Touchscreen, a really nice machine for only a little over $500. A really good deal if you’re in the market for a laptop.

Have you ever just looked at someone and said, “Seriously?”

But I Didn’t Accomplish Anything . . .

As I told Jan when I got home this afternoon, I got a lot done at work today, but I didn’t really accomplish anything. When she asked what that meant, I said I was busy doing a lot of different things but didn’t really make any long-term headway toward any of my big projects.

It started raining about 4am, loud enough and heavy enough to wait me up, and it keep coming down just about all day long. According to my rain gauge it’s total over 4 inches in the last 24 hours. And more to come.

My new LED headlight bulbs came in today but I probably won’t install them until this weekend when Jan and I are up in Katy puppy-sitting for Brandi.

Since they’re a little larger than the standard bulbs, they’re in two pieces with a plug in the middle to make it easier to get them mounted and plugged in.

I’ll let you know how it goes.




The reason we’re dog-sitting is that Brandi, Lowell, and Landon are heading up to the Dallas area for a weekend at Great Wolf Lodge, a 600 room hotel combined with an 80,000 sq. ft. water park, all indoors.

Looks like fun, and a great prequel to their DisneyWorld trip in the future.

Tomorrow Jan and I are meeting up with Chris and Linda to introduce them to our favorite Pho 20 for dinner. Really looking forward to it.

Yes, those kind of strippers.
