Not much going on this Saturday except finalizing our financial reports. Our operating budget has way too much flex in it and we are having to tighten down the screws on it. Yes we are still poor and we forgot that this last month. With Sherri working and making extra we have let ourselves slip over into thinking that we are wealthy. When you are living like many of us live you can’t forget your budget restraints. We are thinking of ways to cut a little fat off the old budget so Sherri can see the light at the end of the tunnel. She wants to hang up her layout schematics and start looking at the map more. To do this we are going to do some real deep soul searching and see what we have to do to free up some cash to allow her to say good-bye to the old job thing.
Other than crunching numbers we just sat around and talked about this and that. Sherri will be working in Mesquite Texas next week and she is really dreading it. We will be staying at the Plantation Place RV Park….which by the way is a little over our budget…but it is the closest to where she will be working. I will have laundry duty while there…seeing as how they have a laundry on the grounds there and we are getting close to running out of things to wear.
The laundry will keep me busy part of the time…but during the cooler morning temps I will need to do some cleaning on the outside of the RV. Being on the road as much as we have been I have not had the time to clean and wax as I should. So next week will be my time to shine.
Sorry this is not a very informative post today…but it is Saturday and life is just laid back. We will be grocery shopping today and I will try to spend some time on chat tonight. Gosh it just seems like time passes by so fast now and before I know it…it is 10:00 at night! When I worked I spent my time at work chatting and now I don’t have that time….go figure.
OK better get this one started so I will have to part from you now…I will rejoin you later….
Somewhere in Time

Thanks for sharing your life with your readers. I enjoy hearing about your adventures, even if it is just everyday chores like laundry and cleaning the RV.
Well I sure hope you guys find a way for Sherri to stop working... It is true... It seems we are so much busier since we retired... But what a great life... getting out and exploring America... RIGHT?
Have fun & safe travels...

My daughter works in Mesquite and likes it there, so maybe it won't be so bad for you :)
I hope Sherri can quit by the first of the year so you can travel around. Pull in the financial belt!
