This the last day of 2919.  Just another day.  Got up at 7:30.  Had to wake up the sleeping giant.   He was up and getting ready for carving us session.  I got up did chores then sewed for awhile. At 10:30 the dogsI walked down to the clubhouse to meet Steve.  Then we were off to have Steve's root canal done.  We filled out all their paperwork only to find out that the tooth decay was too bad to save.  So he will have to have an implant on either side of this lower gum.  Anyway the appointment is made to have the tooth pulled next Tuesday. 
We came home for lunch.  Then I went down to Betty's to work on the placement of the blocks on one particular quilt.   We talked about what is going on with her and Larry.  I hate to see them at odds.  Even though Larry is not my favorite person I liked it better when they weren't fighting.   I came home and we got ready for Taco Tuesday.   We had a good group.  After that a group of us went to Dairy Queen for peppermint Blizzards. Unfortunately even though they were advertising them outside they weren't making them on the inside.  Home to feed the dogs and take them to the dog park.  Then TV and games.  A quiet New Year.   Welcome 2020.

Well today was a very interesting day.  Up early as usual. 7:30 for me.  Another cold day here at the park and overcast.  Breakfast and chores.  I sewed for awhile Steve painted his carving.  At 11:30 steve decided to take a Teryx ride to get water and end up at the dog park.  A quick lunch then off to coloring with Betty.  Betty and Larry are not getting along.  Betty was on the phone to me and an altercation broke out.  Larry threw coffee at Betty.  Anyway we talked before everybody got to coloring.  Then we colored.   Steve came to pick us up fir the show about twenty to three.  One problem he forgot to get Alan.  So off he went to get Alan and then return for us.  Later I found out that he also forgot to walk the dogs and put out a pee pad.  Anyway we went to the show.  The guys saw Richard Jewell and the girls saw Ftozen II.  The dinner at el Manuel.   Not great but better than Eva's.  Back at the Ranch I ran the dogs to the dog run and Steve had their food ready.  Then movies and TV.

December 29, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

I got up late today 8 ish.  Had breakfast and did morning chores.  We decided to make clam chowder and asked Sandy and Alan to join us.  So if to Frys to get supplies.  Back home to out everything away.   Started  to make the soup.  I also boiled some eggs to make tuna salad.  Nancy Gonzales dropped by to introduce herself.  They know the Etzel's. I made the soup in the instapot.  That wa a mistake.  I cut up all the veggies prior to making it.  When I dumped the potatoes in and turned on the pressure we took a Teryx ride and stood and chatted with the Littles.  When we got back the pressure did not turn off when it when it was supposed to and the potatoes were mushy. 
Then Alan came tell us that Sandy's sister had finally passed. Which is funny because I had stopped to talk to her about 1 when I walked the dogs.  She said her sister was having a bad day and she was doing laundry  just in case something happened.   Very prophetic.   Any Alan brought canned peaches and dessert and then left saying Sandy wasn't up for dinner which is understandable.   So we dined alone.  I haven't done dishes yet. 
I am beginning to think that I am ready to quit rving.  I am getting really tired of being in each others way..  I am ready  to leave  Fiesta Grande RV Resort. 

December 28, 2919 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Another day in paradise tripping over each other.  Got up early--before 7 and got ready to leave the house and have breakfast with Colleen and Mike.  We went to Mimi's.   We had a good breakfast.  Definitely would go back.  A quick stop at Lowes to get a throw rug for the bedroom.  It has been frigid all day long with a chilly wind blowing.   Once we got home I decided to our away Christmas and restocknmy ostomy supplies.   Steve tried painting outside but the wind was too strong.  I got everything put away and Steve got it all put back in the loft.  The Fiesta Grande Ladies social circle had an impromptu meeting at Betty's.  We worked everything out at least for the next couple of weeks.
I hemmed Steve's sweat pants and did a bit of sewing.  We did instapot ribs for dinner.  I sewed for about an hour after  dinner .  Then did uo the few dishes.  Then off to watch TV.  It will be slightly warmer and hopefully less windy.

I think I have the after Christmas blues.   It has been cold and raining all day.  I got up at 8.  Breakfast and morning chores.   Betty came by at the scheduled time for our quilt strategy meeting.  That lasted til noon.  Steve sharpened carving knives.  A quick lunch and off to coloring. Larry drove us.  We colored til 3 as usual the Larry drove us home.  Then Steve and I and the dogs ran some errands downtown. We checked the mail and found that David and Bemrita sent me a $50.00 Visa card.  I was astounded.   First time that has happened  in a very long time. Propane for the trailer gas for the Teryx.  Home to wait for the rain to stop.  A quick trip to the dog park where we got caught in the rain.  Dinner for the dogs and for us the last of the awful spaghetti.    Dishes then the usual TV.   I think I am sick of Christmas movies.

December 26, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

There is not a lot to report today as I spent all day doing laundry. I finally got up at 7:45.  Breakfast then started sorting laundry.  The plan was to do three loads of clothes the then in a few days do the whites towels and bedding.  However Hazel got sick on on the bedding so everything changes.  Off I went with the towels bedding and whites.  I turned into 4 loads.  Once the were in the dryer I ran home and got the regular clothes.  Back to the laundry.  Loaded three more washers with clothes.  The laundry police wanted to know how many washers.  3 is the magic number. I didn't mention the 3 dryers that were going.  Anyway I folded those and put the next three loads in and took all the dry and folded clothes home.  Made lunch and took off for the laundry.   Waited for the clothes to finish drying only to find that one load  didn't start.  So waited for that to finish drying but had to run home and get the credit card .  Finalky brought the last loads home.  Took a Teryx ride with the dogs before it rained.  Vacuumed the floors put up the back remade the bed walked the dogs and fed them.  We picked up Sandy and Alan and went to the Big Wa for dinner.  We dropped them off and headed home in between rain showers.  TV and games for the rest of the night.

December 25, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Christmas 2019.  I set my alarm for 7 but was awake about 20 minutes  early.  I got up and made Steve biscuits and gravy, bacon and fried eggs.  We got dressed and headed out early to see the last episode in the Star Wars saga.  Steve slept through most of the show.  I just wanted to see it because I had seen all the others.  Anyway we were there until noon.  Then back to the park.  I stopped and chatted with Betty for awhile.  Then back to chill out and wait to go dinner.  We talked to some of the kids and I did the dishes.  We left the house at 3:30 to go to Cabos.   Big mistake.   Service was terrible.   They didn't bring butter or sour cream until the potatoes were almost cold.  We didn't leave there until 6.  Then home to the doggies  for TV and ice cream finally.

December 24, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort , Casa Grande AZ

Well it is finally Christmas Eve  2019. It was pouring when we woke up.  So we had breakfast then when the rain stopped the dogs went for their walk.  We did our chores and got ready to go to the market.  The market was packed and the debit cards were not working as well as the chip reader.  Anyway we brought the groceries home and put them away.  Then I decided to sew for awhile.  Steve carved.   We gas a late lunch as we were only having soup for dinner.  I watched a movie the we bundled up for the walk to the clubhouse for dinner.  We ate soup breadsticks and dessert from Olive garden. We left there under protest from Pastor Ron before the Christmas Eve candlelight service.  We walked back from the Clubhouse stopping at Jubliee's house to see a quilt.  Then home for TV and dog walks between showers.
I am between quilt projects and kind of boring.  Ready for the holidays to be icer.  They were kind of flat with Steve being so under the weather.

December 23, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Steve is much better thank God. He slept in until 9 am.  I slept till 8 and did not get up once to go potty.   I got dressed and took the dogs to the dog park.  Then breakfast.   I hung out for a bit then did some sewing.  Off to coloring with Sandy, Betty and Colleen.  After coloring  we had an early dinner.  Rain coming.  After dinner dishes and TV as usual. Pretty  laid back day.  Glad Steve is getting better, sorry we waited so long to go to the doctor.

December 22, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Steve finally decided to go to urgent care this morning.  I made an appointment for 2:30.  I made him ham and eggs for breakfast and did the rest of the morning  chores.  I was hoping to avoid going with him but that was not to be.  Nobody had much energy this day.  It was overcast  all day.  I sewed a little.  I am between projects right now so I am practicing on my four patch blocks for potholders.   I wish it was successful  more consistently.   The we went to the doc in the box.  He got a breathing treatment as expected then we went to Walgreens for the drugs.  Back to the house.  Just as I texting the Fords they dropped by.  Then we had waffles for dinner.  A walk with the dogs,  dishes, and TV.   Wish Christmas stuff was done with.  Actually all we have left is the Neal's on Christmas eve and Christmas.

December 21, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

We had a miserable night last last.  I fell and hurt my shoulder and hit my temple on the pavement right outside of our trailer.  Of course Steve didn't hear a thing.  I couldn't get comfortable  and Steve kept me awake coughing.  Anyway it was between 2 an3 when I finally fell asleep.  Then up early and dozed on the couch for an hour.  Tried going back to bed.  Had breakfast and chores.  Made up the goodie plates.  We delivered them.  Steve drove  and I jumped out to deliver the goodies.  Came back and hung out at the house the rest of the day.  Took a nap.  We got a Pizza for dinner. Thank to a reminder from Betty  we watched the lighted cart parade.   Then TV.   I didn't even sew today.

December 20, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Well this illness if Steve's is killing both of us.  He is miserable but refused help.  I got up late  ate breakfast and did chores.  Headed out to the post office  and got propane.  Back at the rig and waited until it was time to go to lunch with the girls.  Sandy and Betty.  We ate at the creative cafe.  Then hit Frys for groceries.   Where we saw the residents from Fiesta Grande.  Got home where Steve managed to feed himself  but couldn't manage to take the dogs to the dog park.  Then I sewed for awhile.  I sat down to read and ended up taking a short nap. Dinner dishes and the bedroom where i finished the hand work on the quilt.  Hope Steve gets better soon.

December 19, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

There just isn't enough hours in the day to do everything I want to do.  We got up early this morning.  Steve only got a few hours of sleep due to his cold.  We jammed over to the post office before it got crazy. Back home.  I sewed . The machine  was giving me fits but we worked it out.   Steve did some prep  work for the fire suppressant install with Mooney.   He arrived about noon.  He brought his cute little puppy Angel.   He left about 2. I went down and visited with Betty for about an hour.  The a Teryx ride to welcome the Fords.   Back to the rig fir dinner.   Dishes then TV while doing the hand sewing on the quilt. 

December 18, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

The sick one is recuperating though he still has a bad cough.  We got up fairly early.  Neither one of us got a good night rest.  Steve and I took off to get our toes done and I got my nails done. Steve went to the store to get drugs while I got my manicure.  Then over to Office Max to pick up my copy job.  Back to the house. A very short Teryx  ride  to get water bottles filled .I sewed for a minute the lunch and off to color.  Mostly we talked and gossiped.   Back to the house. I prepared the binding for the quilt.  I grabbed a bit to eat then off to Bingo.  No surprises there.  Loose loose loose.  Back at the house for TV  and games. 

December 17, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Steve sick day number 2.  We got up and did chores, I ran to the mail for Steve.  Steve painted I  played in the sewing room.  I got my potholders packaged up.  Then made some more disappearing 4 patches .  Getting better at it.  I cut the binding for the quilt.   We made lunch and walked the dog.  I made some praline crunch  for the boys.  Finally it was time to go to Taco Tuesday solo.  We exchanged a few gifts.  Home for TV and games.  Not much else to report. 

December 16, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

I think Steve has come down with whatever Betty and Larry had.  Hey.  I will probably be down with it for Christmas. 
We got up at the normal time. Did chores and ate breakfast.   We jumped in the car and drove to the Post Office.  We mailed packages off to the kids and Grandkids.  Fortunately we got there when we did.  When we left the line was clear out to the Lobby.  Back to the house.  I sewed for an hour then took off for my much needed hair cut.  Then back to walk the dogs and walk down to the clubhouse to catch the bus for Tuscon and the Gaslight Theater.   It was cute but not nearly as nice as Barleens.   We were back by 5:30. I finally  finished all the potholders now package them up for tomorrow night.  I finally figured out how to get the binding on without having to rip out sections on every potholder.   Now I have to perfect the disappearing 4 patch.  One or two a day should work.  The when those are all done I need to learn how to square them up when I quilt them.
Finally it was time to retire to the bedroom for TV.

December 15, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

This is a really short one tonight.  We got up and I fixed Steve a big breakfast.   I did the chores then at 9:45 we went over to the Thirsty Donkey and met Betty , Larry, Janet, John, Sand and Alan.  We watched the Chiefs game.  They have 20 TV's.  More or less.  We had some snacks while we were watching.   We left there about 2 and went to Walmart .  It was crazy there.  Then we came home and let the puppies out.  Then I started sewing.  The potholders are not turning out as well as I expected.   I need to take more time and do a better job.  I need to find a way to keep them straight.   Very frustrating.   We ate leftovers for dinner.  Dishes and more sewing.   A last trip to the dog park and TV to finish off the evening.

December 14, 2017 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

This was an incredibly busy day.  I baked cookies all day.  First I put together the 7 layer cookies and let them set .  Then I made the chocolate chunk cookies and baked them.  Then I baked the 7 layer cookies while I made the cream cheese snickerdoodle cookie bars.  Baked them.  Then cleanup started. I reorganized some of my quilting  things. About 4:30 we did our Teryx ride stopping to talk to Larry and Betty.  A stop at the dog park.  Steve carved most of the day.  We BBQ'ed chicken thighs.  Dishes then TV for the evening. I should be ready for Christmas by tomorrow night.

December 13, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

We were up and out the door early this morning.   It has seemed like Saturday all day today.  So after chores were done we headed out on errands.   First stop Harbor Freight.   Then Kiwes since Harbor didn't have the rake Steve wanted.  Then we got propane for the trailer and diesel for the truck.   Finally last stop was Safeway.  Then back to the rig to put away groceries.   Then we each did  . Mad dash for our respective corners me to sew and Steve to Carve.  The gods went out to the pen after their walk to the dog park. We broke for lunch and Steve's afternoon Siesta.  I continued to sew till Sandy and Betty came over.  After they left we were both back at it.  Steve after more napping.  So we both worked late.  We decided to go out and grab a bite rather than BBQ.   So we jumped in the truck and drove out to Culver's.   Then back home.  I cleaned up the sewing room and put away the 100+ potholders yet to be made.  I have to figure out a full proof way to have the potholders come out right.  Still learning the pitfalls.
Finally TV for the rest of the night.  Getting sick of Christmas movies.

December 12, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Wow another incredibly busy day.  We got up, me at 7 am.  Definitely way too early.  Did morning  chores and loaded up the laundry.   Steve dropped me at the laundry then walked across the courtyard to carving.  I loaded up the washers.   Bad me I used 4 washers.  I dumped them all in three dryers and ran home to walk the dogs.  20 minutes of sewing the back down to the laundry  with 9 minutes  to spare.  Then all the clothes got folded.  Steve came in to get me while I was still folding  and cherry picked his clothes out that he was willing to fold.  Rushed back to the rig to get ready for lunch with Paul  and Shirley  Heebner.   We went to the Creative Cafe.   Where we ran into Betty and Dorothy.  Great lunch .  Then back to the rig.  We finished decorating for Christmas  by putting the lighted Christmas wreath out front.  Then I mended the wreath box and put it up out of the way.  Then I vacuumed the floors.  Then the sewing began.  I quilted all the potholders , trimmed them, and ironed all the bindings.  Tomorrow I am ready to sew on the bindings!  At dusk we decided to take s Teryx ride and pick a winner in the decorations contest.  We were in the Teryx with the list and a flashlight.   Two dogs and a pencil and notebook.   Then a fried egg sandwich.   More sewing until 9:30 which is not normal.  Lots to do this weekend.   Baking to do.

December 11, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Well today was an interesting day.  I got up and did chores.  Then sewed for awhile.   At 11:30 Betty and I took off  in our truck with me at the wheel.  We drove out the quilters having to turn around only once.  Steve actually suggested that we go alone.  We stopped  at JoAnn's and I checked out Bonworth's which is no longer in business.   Back to the rig for lunch and more sewing.   Some Christmas decorating.  Dinner, dishes and Bingo.  Betty  and Tami Howard joined us.  We didn't win.  Back to the rig.  Got the laundry ready the settled up on the bed for TV and games.
Didn't even get to play words until almost 5.  We had left over hamburger Strognanoff  for dinner.

December 10, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Wow we had a really busy day.  Started off with Steve heading off to carving after breakfast. I sewed for a couple of hours.  Steve found out that Sandy and Alan were going to organ pipes pizza.  They were going with Suzanne in her car so we all drive on our own.  We left here about 11:45 and arrived there about 12:40.  We sat in the parking lot waiting for everyone to gather.  It was absolutely amazing.   We ate mediocre pizza but the organ  pipes  were amazing.  It was buffet style service but we had plenty of food.  Brett played about an hour the told us about the different instruments incorporated in the wurlitzer organ.  Left there about 3 and made it home just in time to walk the dogs and  take off for Taco Tuesday.   We stayed and visited with them til about 6:30 then headed home after a quick stop at Fry's.   Back at home I sewed for awhile the it was TV in the bedroom. 

December 9, 2017 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Today was perfect. Not.it was raining when i woke up.  Steve was in his chair asleep.  He was in a foul mood most of the day.  We got the dogs taked care of then took off for Coolidge and the Walmart there.  Much fewer people there.  It is 20 miles away.  It rained off and on.  We got back about 10:30 then I put away the groceries and fixed lunch for the grinch.  Steve was upset because we had a few raindrops on the back patio.  We either leave it up on down.  Anyway that set him off for the rest of the day.  I decided not to go to coloring and sew for the rest of the day.  But by the time we should have left for coloring  the sun came out.  I took Betty the onion I borrowed and made our way over to the dog park.  More sewing and watched some TV.  Steve lost the magnet to his name tag which threw him into a real tizzy.   Then a Teryx ride to check the mail.  I fixed a new dinner tonight.  Bacon Ranch Spaghetti with Parmesan.   Steve was kind of leary but in the end he liked it.  It was pretty fast and easy.  Did dishes and it was time for TV in the boudoir. 

December 8, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

A quiet day in the park today.  We got up and went to cracker barrel with the Clark's and the Bances.  We left there about 11 and went to Fry's  for mushrooms.  Back to the rig.  Dig walk then sewing.  Sewed til about 4 and accomplished a lot.  A Teryx ride.  The dinner prep.  Borrowed an onion from Betty.   Hamburger Strognanoff.   Dishes.  Then TV. 
I am just about ready to have my colonectony reversed.  It's the loose stool I don't like. 

December 7, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

We forgot to go to the parade of lights downtown today.  Doubt Steve's  back would take it.  We didn't go to the craft fair and weenie roast.  I got up just before 8 and made Steve sausage and eggs.  Then I made doggie bisquits.  Then sewing and carving. I cut and sewed  most of the day.  About 2 1 walked over to the sewing room with Betty.  I took some of Betty's giveaways.   Then we went over to Sandy and we all decided to go out for breakfast.  We took a Teryx ride to the mailbox.  We finally got rid of that evil carpet in the back.  Then back to sewing.  Walk the dogs, feed the dogs, make dinner, eat dinner, dishes finally TV time. 

December 6, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Another fun day at Casa Grande.   We got up leisurely and had breakfast.   Steve said his back was better.  Did morning  chores then we took a tour in the Teryx to check the mail.  Steve chatted with Don Brooks and Dave and Tina Howard.  Back at the houe I started to sew' Steve carved. 
Then Steve irritated his back again. I searched for his back brace. We ate lunch. I started to sew again.  Betty called to get approval on some material but my phone wasn't working.   Fortunately she called Steve.  Then she called again to see if I wanted to go to JoAnn's.   Which of course I did.  So we took off and and had a great time shopping.  We went to Fry's for a few groceries.   Back home for sewing .  We made ribs in the instapot.   I forgot to put in liquid so we had a couple of stumble steps.  But they turned out great.  I did the dishes the we went back to check the mail.  Sandy and Alan were back from their trip from hell.  We stopped and visited them then hit the dog park. Finally TV and games before we tucked in for the night.

December 5, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

I set the alarm for 7 and Steve made sure I was up and on the move. About 7:30 I heard some loud noises.  It turned out to be somebody cutting down a large tree about 2 spaces down the road.  They had it done and entirely gone in about 45 minutes.  Guess they were worried about  trees coming down if there is another storm.   They lost two and  took out a park model in the last storm we had.  We took our first ATV trip of the season this morning.   We were supposed to be down by the laundry by 9.  We left here at 8:20.  There were 12 units as our backdoor neighbor Kevin and Joan from Windsor called them.  I was the only woman but Steve wanted the company.  I wanted to take the tour of Casa Grande Mountain.   Some people like us drove their ATV the 3 Miles  to the parking lot and rendezvous spot. On guy who was trailering his unit somehow got lost and we waited about 15 minutes  before we took off.  Apparently the last big rain we had washed a lot of dirt away.  Some places were pretty rocky and dicey going up the hills.  We are back in the park about noon.  We hustled down to the office to get tickets for the Christmas eve soup supper  and the trip to the Caywood cotton farm.  Back at the rig I took the dogs to the dog park,  fixed some lunch and  started sewing while Steve dumped, polished the motorcycle and we lowered the back patio. Took a Teryz ride then back to sewing.  Finally I fixed leftovers for dinner.  Dishes and finished off the evening with TV. 

December 4, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Well today was a fun day.  Steve took the truck to get it serviced at the Ford dealership.   Betty picked me up and we headed over to JoAnn's and spent almost 2 hours .  Still have to make more trips for quilts for a couple more grandkids.  Then we went to the dollar store.  Really nice store.  Big and well stocked.  Finally we fought the crowds at Fry's.   Senior day 10% discount on groceries.   As the time progressed Betty's energy diminished.   So she dropped me off and went home for a three hour nap. I walked the dogs then we took the recycling to Don Morris  and filled up our water jug .  Lunch then more sewing and carving.  We ate a simple  dinner then Steve and I had a fun but not profitable time at Bingo. Despite breaking open a double yolker egg we did not win any money.
Home for dishes and TV.

December 3, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

It was a red letter day.  I cleaned the house from stem to stern. I vacuumed in the she shed and cleaned the back bathroom.   Swept the main cabin and mopped.  Mopped the bathroom  then dust mopped the bedroom.  All while Steve was at the Dentist.  We took a Teryx ride and checked the mail.  We got a seat for the Gaslight theater.   Came back for lunch.  Betty  called and asked me to walk to the office.  I wanted to pay for the theater which I needed to drop off at the office.  I jumped in the Teryx and off I went.  Betty bought her tickets then we went to the office. We stood and waited for a couple of minutes.  When they finished and were walking out I recognized them as Mike and Colleen Ford.   We hugged then chatted for awhile.  Betty and I went in the Library and then took a tour of the park where the tree fell.  Then I took her home.  Mike and Colleen were chatting with Steve.  After they left o fussed with the potholders I am in the process of making.  About 4:15:we left the dogs and did Taco Tuesday with Dorothy and Richard and Janer and John.  We sat there until 6 laughing and chatting.   Then home to feed and walk the dogs.   Finally it was time to relax with the TV and the phone. 

December 2, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

Well the washers and waxers came a few minutes after 8.  There was about 5 guys working on the trailer.  The dogs especially Sophie didn't like all the noise.  I sewed while they were working on the trailer.  They finished about 11:30.  We put the yard back together.   Then we ate lunch and Steve walked the dogs.  Then we went in search of a new park.  We checked out the two other Encore parks in the area.  There were not as high quality  as Fiesta Grande but cost more.  They didn' t have as many activities.   They didn't seem as well organized.  Things are changing here at Fiesta.   The thousand trails discount may disappear.  We made a stop at Safeway then home. 
We decided to put the dog run up and Hazel was anxious to get out and enjoy the run.  Sophie did not want to come in.  Then we took our daily cart ride.  We ate leftovers for dinner.  The chicken and rice dish was better tonight.   The chicken was tough.  Better to use thighs I think.  Dishes and TV to finish off the night.

December 1, 2019 Fiesta Grande RV Resort, Casa Grande AZ

It is a new month! I got up early with help of the Alarm.  Got ready and we went out to Breakfast in Arizona City at the Iron Skillet.  It was pretty good.  We talked to a trucker while we ate breakfast.   Then we jumped in the car and drove down Jimmy Kerr Blvd to check out Eloy.  Back to house.  I did some more cutting out of potholders.   Why I am making so many I will  never know.  They make nice  breas and butter gifts.  I love matching the fabrics. 
I got ready and took the rest of the laundry down to wash.  It took a little over 2 hours.  I guess the green machine was spotted by Larry while I was there, then heard by Betty as I passed by on the way home.  We are parked by a big new Momentum.
I started sewing as soon as i got back.  Steve took off on a motorcycle  ride to check out the Walmart in Coolidge. 
When he came back we BBQ'ed chicken thighs.   We took the Teryx out and checked out the Christmas lights in the park.  I pulled some fabric out as i needed to recut some of  5" squares.    Then after putting away my clean clothes the dogs and I watched TV, ate ice cream and just chilled.
Tomorrow the rig gets washed and waxed.  Then we can start decorating .  Put out the dog pen which i know the dogs are looking forward to and i am looking forward to putting some things under the bed.
