November 15, 2018 Ponderosa RV Resort, Lotus CA

We got up early and hitched up for our final trek from Coarsegold to Placerville for awhile.  We took the normal route and made our usual stop at the Turlock rest stop since that is the only one on 99 between W Cleveland Ave in Madera and our Dillard Road turnoff.  We ate lunch on the side of the road on Dillard Road.  The only hiccup was that the satellite would not stow.  No surprises there. Also no surprise that it would not work when we reached Ponderosa Resort.
On the way here we decided to cut our stay short due to the really bad air quality from the Paradise fire.  We rearranged Hazel's teeth cleaning from Placerville to Oakhurst.   So now instead of having them cleaned on Monday she will have them done on Friday the day after Thanksgiving. 
We are in E8 this time.  So once we decided that the satellite would not work Steve's whole world came crashing down as well.  He decided to give up football it is no longer important to him.  Decided to get the printer down and send the proof of purchase to the gal at Winegard and have her send a replacement to Coarsegold. Hope it gets there timely as we leave the 30th and there is a holiday in there.
About 4 I suggested we grab a couple of pizzas and go to Nikki's to watch the game.  Then us girls could go shopping while Steve watched the game.  So at 4 Steve was against the idea as he no longer cared about football.   He was fine having chimichangas for dinner.  By 5 PM we were rushing out the door to grab pizzas and heading to Nikki's place to watch the unimportant football game.  What a drama king.  He and Sophie were made for each other.  Of course by that time it was his idea. But of course
Nikki and I went shopping with the girls.  She doesn't realize that she shops just like her Dad.  I felt as much pressure as when I shop with her father.  I did quite a bit of shopping most of it staples  and things like paper towels which according to Steve was too much.  He pitched his normal fit mostly because of the satellite antenna failure.  So of course nothing made him happy and therefore it was be an asshole to my wife night.  Let's just say it was a very quiet ride home. 
After putting away the groceries from Walmart.   TV and bed.  Maybe some reading.   Of course my Sunday bra shopping  plan bit the dust.  Oh well we may be able to squeeze it in tomorrow or the next day.  The best part of going back on Sunday is that we will not miss out on the Sunday night entertainment  at the clubhouse.   Songs by Josh Groban will be sung by Gary Stowe.
