Day 5 of the Black Mojo

 

 

Doesn’t take much to make me happy. 

Yes day 5 and we have an assignment. We have been told to report for duty. Today will tell the tell of whether we are on the road to a full recovery. Our boss assigned us to to some local stores in our area to do some checking on “Out of date products”. No assignment too big no assignment too small. We coffee’d up and and got ourselves ready for the day.

Not the rivers in Colorado…No mountains behind the trailer…but we are content to be well again here in our new site.

We had 4 stores in 4 different towns to call on and so we had to get going rather early to make the rounds and return to our nest. We did not know how long we could stay out so we were a little anxious about how we would do. Being the adventurers that we are we forged ahead without fear. Made it down the steps and into the truck once more for a memorable launch out to the highway and points beyond.

Has the Black Mojo left us for good? Will we conquer this day and finish our assignment with unsoiled clothing? The pressure was on and we would soon know if we had been totally cured or not.

Let me ease everyone’s mind…we did survive and made it on our tour. We moved like jungle cats through the stores getting all the items on our list done. Before we knew it we were headed to our barn to do laundry. We were not too for from the lake property and soon arrived…unloaded our laundry and started the wash.

While the laundry was going I worked on the deck some. With all the rain we have had here the ground had swollen up so that it had lifted the porch up and the door to the barn would not close. I did some adjusting on the footings and soon we were back in business. This gave me something to do while Sherri folded clothes.

We have not eaten all day so we left the barn and went into Wills Point to the bank post office and finally to the Brookshire’s for groceries. We found some good food for our late lunch. Then back to the house to eat and settle in for the evening.

Not a bad day…and all worked out well…working and traveling. We have next weeks schedule on our calendar so it will be time to start planning that trip…
