I left Dottie’s yesterday afternoon. It is a pleasant drive through the rolling countryside. I passed cornfields and horse farms. I cleaned up a little bit around my mobile home. Things were dusty.

My nephew was here over the weekend. He installed my tiffany in the kitchen and my ceiling fan in what was the purple bedroom. My nephew painted it yellow. It looks great. I can’t wait to move my stuff in. I hung up some wall hangings on existing screws. I’ll rearrange them later. The ceiling fan that was in the kitchen was installed in the blue bedroom.

The plumber installed the laundry tub in the laundry room. That will be a big help for soaking things and for washing Danny. The plumber put a nice Moen faucet in it. I feel like changing the rest of the faucets in here. I don’t care for them but I’ll wait until I need to change them. The garden tub doesn’t have any way to attach a hose. It would be much easier to clean with a spray hose. I guess I’ll have to slosh the water around to rinse it.

Dottie’s campground looked like a ghost town yesterday afternoon. Only a few people remained. We took a ride down to the boat dock. It is a lovely area. It has a ramp and a nice dock. There was a man fishing but didn’t catch anything.

I stopped in to see my niece and her husband. They spent some time on their boat this weekend and helped my other nephew fix his computer. Ed used the parts from the computers I gave him to fix Bob’s computer.

Danny woke up. He came out took a look at me typing and went back to bed. I guess he was checking up on me. He met so many new people this weekend I think his head was spinning. The children wanted to pet him but I discouraged it because Danny is not used to children and I don’t want to take any chances. He growled at one of them. The boy had been swimming and the chlorine must have disguised his scent. Danny didn’t recognize him.

I met Dottie for ice cream last night. She had finished her packing and was headed home. She passes through Chesapeake City on her way. The ice cream place is next to Cheryl and Ed’s place. It started to rain so we didn’t linger long.

I have a list of things to do here. I need to go to the mobile home store and pick out a door for the back. The previous owners gave me the money for the new door. It has moisture between the glass and its frame is bent. It looks like someone forgot their key and tried to pry it open. I have to clean the ceiling fans and do a better job of cleaning the ducts. The rugs need shampooing. I’ll have to see if I can rent a shampooer. I want to get my daffodils planted and right now, I’d better get the trash out.

It sounds like you have some things you want to do at your new home, but isn't it exciting to plan what you want to do to make it YOUR home? I'm excited for you Karol and in God's timing, all of this will come together. As humans, we always want everything to happen fast, but, God isn't swayed and will take care of them in His time.

So glad you had a nice Labor Day weekend. Everything you did sounded like fun. It sounds like you'll be a lot closer to friends and family at your new place too. Is your new home in Maryland?

I'll keep reminding God that your Vineland home needs to be sold and would He please send the perfect homeowner to take care of that. If only!
However, He will.

I always kept a squirt bottle filled with water to help me when cleaning the garden tub. They get dusty. Have a good day and give Danny Boy a hug for me too. Ruth
