Rough day!

August 10 – Although  we  were  a  bit  pooped  when  we  got home  last  night, we  started packing up the inside of the RV to take it in for the generator review today.  We were up at 7 and needed to be on the road by 8:15 to be in Bolton at 9 for our appointment. 

Silly me, I thought we’d drive the RV up, he’d take a look and we’d drive back.    Good thing Bill had a different viewpoint, as he drove his truck and I drove the RV and we were right on time.  Our tech asked what all we wanted done in addition to assessing the generator and we had a list.  So we headed off to Manchester where we do our real shopping and I had no idea that it was going to be an all day affair!  Poor Bill and Molly stayed in the truck ALL day and he dropped me off at various stores and the mall.  Molly did fine in the back seat and Bill ran the truck some to cool it off.

I did some Christmas shopping and some treats from Trader Joe in addition to perusing a few places in the mall.  Since it wasn’t what I had planned for the day, I really didn’t enjoy it and it was VERY hot today!  We stopped at Boston Market for lunch and had to eat in the truck as we can’t leave Molly in the heat.  Poor baby, she was so good and did great!

Bill took me to Wendy’s for a Frosty as I didn’t care for my lunch and that improved my spirits.  The tech called twice about the RV, one was to tell me they were taking the generator out of the RV since we have to live in it and they will need to order parts and can access it better out.  $$$$

Molly loves being outside

We headed back about 3:45 as I was shopped out and we were all tired.  The tech had just finished repairing the under cabinet lights in the kitchen and he didn’t know about the ones in the bedroom but said he’d do those next when we come back to have the generator put back in.  He put a BIG set screw in the loose side mirror and if it works, I’m happy as it’s over $300 to get a new one, but as soon as I get home I’ll be using some spray paint to make it blend in with the mirror!  He ordered a new front AC, yaaaay and got our faulty GFI working again!

So we left there at 5 for home and I lost Bill along the way.  We stopped for me to fill up the RV and he gassed as well, but once I got on the road he said there were 12 -13 cars before he could get out and then he got a phone call about his allergy serum that he had to pull over and give his CC info to get it sent here.  So I arrived long enough before him to start backing in and Doug came over and got me in, then Rex came and they put the jack pads down to I could level.  Then Bill arrived to hook up the electric, water and sewer. 

We had heated up leftovers as we were both tired puppies when we got back!  And to think, we have to do it again once all the parts come in!!!

And Jude lost his first tooth!
