Our first week

It has been a week since we left the house. It's been a bit of a busy week and a bit discombobled.  Been on the go constantly it seems. I wrote this last nite and promptly lost it so decided to wait till today as is was to tired to redo it last nite.  So forgive me if I repeat anything.

Thurs we moved here to carnation to the ToltMcdonald Park in Carnation.  I had md apps and my yearly boob squish to get done before I came over.  My doc said he just wants me to work on regaining my energy, strength and muscle tone and just recoup.  He figures it will take about 2 months before I am rested up and bored and able to do the one hour or 3 miles 5-6 days a week as he wants so I can maintain what I have. So he gave me strict orders to rest and recoup for 2 months.  The  stimultor is working and I now have less pain in my legs and actually some feeling that I haven't had before so over all it is working.   I mainly just need on pain pill late in the day when my muscles and body so fatigued I can't help but hurt.  Most nites are pretty good.  All of this comes from fibromyalgia, over active nerve system which creates chronic pain syndrome, and stenosis from back surgery, and this stupid severe restless legs that I have developed over the years.  But I keep chugging along and don't let it stop me from doing anything.  In fact when I think I am doing well like to day a guy asked me to day if I was ok as I  walked like I was in pain.   What a bummer, I thought I looked pretty good.
Anyhow, enough of that, that info is really for my sisters who seem to worry about me for some reason.
We are hear in Carnation this weekend as Leroy's nose work club(newly formed) is having a mock trial and he had to work at.  Yest we ran to the outlet mall so I could go to my store for my yearly underwear run,  I also found 3 bottoms (jeans,shorts,dress pants) For really really cheap, but the cool thing is they are one size smaller than I have been weàring. That was really cool.
When we got back from there I went to the local laundromat at the end of the street and washed clothes for almost 3 hours.  It had gotten away from me in the move,
Today I cleaned the RV and worked with the dogs and took them for a couple of long walks.
The park is quite pretty and has an opening for another host so Leroy applied.   We will see what happens from there.  It will screw up our summer plans some but it would give us a free summer and chance to get back on our feet financially.  So who knows.  The part of the park that needs some one is on the other side of the river and only reachable by foot bridge, except for getting the RV there on park roads.  Except for the yurts and tent campers its isolated but pretty. The river is still pretty high and fast right now but goes down as the summer goes on.  It's a nice park outside of a nice little town.
It is known for  couger, bobcat, and bear sittings so I watch my little charges closely.
Well that is all for this time,  I home it gets more exciting for people to read.  Till then........
