Getting Stuff Done

There hasn't been a lot of excitment in our last couple of days here. Cleaning, laundry, doctor's appointment and some visiting have been taking up most of our time.

Yesterday, I had my annual doc's visit. While I took care of that detail, Jim went to Pueblo with his friend John to see their rancher friend, Steve. I took advantage of some down time when I got back from the doctor's office and before Jim got home and went to the campground pool. I swam a few laps, soaked in the hot tub for a little while, and got some sun. But, before I played, I did get the Castle's floor swept and mopped.

We managed some relaxation time during the afternoon and then went to dinner at my sister's house. After dinner, we played cards with them. The guys won canasta, but my sister and I took the cribbage game.

Today we got the laundry done, made some plans for more visits and shopped for groceries. We also took a trip to town to pick up some knife guards, and took our knives and scissors to a local shop to be sharpened. I had time this afternoon to practice Guitar Hero and play some Wii Sports.

We have a pretty long list of things to get done and people to see in the time we have here. The car needs a new set of tires and some routine maintenance. There is a big stack of paperwork that must be handled. Just normal things that need to get done, and this month here is the time to catch up on all that fun stuff. Luckily, we'll have lots of visits with family and friends to break up the time so we won't be working the whole time.
