These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

All We Do Is Eat!!!

And boy, am I enjoying it!!

I ran a few errands today to get the things we will need for the next leg of our journey, dog food, a travel book from AAA that I somehow failed to get before leaving, a couple snack or drink things for me, mailed some bills, etc. I also invested in another storage box for the bed of my truck. I won't need it there most of the time, but while traveling, it will be good to put my suitcases in it in case of wet weather (although I don't see any in the forecasts), and I won't have to take them out at every stop. I pack with a small suitcase carrying the things we need at the one-night stops, so it is just that small case and the little one with my shower needs and make up (no, I haven't lost it again!) and the dogs food and meds. Lots easier!

We went out for dinner tonight to a small restaurant that serves Mediterranean foods and some from other cultures. It was scrumptious! I had orange roughy Florentine. Wow, was it good! I had about half of it left, and that will be tomorrow's lunch. had a glass of wine with it, and a Greek salad to start off, then finished off the meal with a tiramisu and a cup of coffee. And I'm so full I could pop. I really need to go to bed and let it begin turning to fat!

Tomorrow will be mostly a "getting ready" day, some laundry and packing, and tomorrow night I will load the truck as much as possible to make an early start easier on Thursday. Oh, and I'm picking Kylee up at school again. And I know where it is this time!

I'm about to drop off with my fingers all over the keyboard, so 'Night for now!


Life is beautiful!!!

  2. Ok, personally...I don't see a problem! :-) Of all the things that we HAVE to do in life...eating has got to be the most fun (or shall I say, FUNNEST!). I say, keep up the good work and congratulate yourself...with a sandwich, a bag of chips and a big ole Iced Tea...LOL.

    Hope to see you this weekend. I'm looking forward to it. Be safe out there, my friend.
