Almost Wordless Wednesday

Santa, we didn't see you this year, so we are posting this photo of us from last year so you don't forget us.  We heard you were visiting the resort this weekend, but they don't allow us in their buildings or around the lake, so you probably won't see us.  If you get to walk around the resort, we are the ones with the snowflake lights and the Charlie Brown Christmas tree. That is all we can say because it is Wordless Wednesday.  BOL!

Making New Friends Everyday

We take at least three walks around the entire resort each day.  We seem to meet someone new each day.  Yesterday, we met a lady and her child.  They are from Salt Lake City.  We have a man who sits outside his camper quite a bit and Scout thinks he is there just for her.  Today, we met a man who is here for medical treatment.  He was really nice to us.  There are always new dogs that we encounter.  The small dogs try to get at us.  Mama says I am being good because I am not whining as much when I see them.  There are a few that push my buttons though and I get excited and hop around when they come at me.  The larger dogs seem to be more laid back like us when we walk. There are at least three German Shepherds that are here.  There are a few terriers and they are all feisty.

The Weimaraner who sits on the dash.  He is barking at the neighbor.  He is standing on the dash in this photo.  I would get in trouble for that.

It has been a busy day here.  Mama did laundry this morning.  She was gone longer than normal because she was talking to her friend who works there.  She came home and put the clothes away and then she dumped the tanks.  She still needs to clean, but that takes less than 15 minutes. 

I chilled in the sunbeam yesterday.  Yes, I am naked.  Mama took my collar off of me for a few minutes and gave me a good neck rub.

Last night, our Emeals meal was Beef Stroganoff.  Dad asked her how she made it because he said it was really good. 

Beef Stroganoff.  It is not supposed to be all mixed together, but Dad came home late and we didn't want the noodles to still be warm.

Tonight's meal is lasagna.  I bet is going to make a big mess in the kitchen.

Mama's latest review is on Maggie Rita's Modern Mexican.

Have a nice day everyone, I need to take a nap before my afternoon patrol of the resort.

One Step Closer

We may be one step closer to getting a new motor home.  We have a contract on our house!   There are a lot of contingencies that we need to get through so Mama is not excited yet. We should know in two weeks if everything will work out.  Our agent is going to continue to show our house and we will take backup offers if they come in.  Paws and fingers are crossed here.

It was a quiet weekend here.  Saturday, the folks went out to dinner with someone Dad knows from work. They went to a Tex Mex restaurant. Mama will review it later. Yesterday, it rained most of the day, so we all stayed inside.  The folks did go out for dinner.  Dad went to a work Christmas party after that.  Our agent called while Dad was gone and told Mama that we were under contract. We stayed up late and watched Survivor.  Dad got home early enough to see the announcement of the winner on Survivor since it started so late.

The Houston Texans are in the playoffs, so that is exciting since we are living here.  I am not switching out my Rams' collar yet, but since we may become Texas residents while we are here, I may adopt the Texans as my second favorite team.

Our Tree Has Lights!

Mama found some small battery operated lights for our little tree.  The lights are really too big for our tree, but it is all the Super Target had and Mama was not daring enough to drive around too much.  She was scared she would get lost. Yes, she has a GPS, but "Maggie" gets confused with the feeder roads here.  She tells us to turn when we shouldn't.  Mama did take one wrong turn and got a little scared, but she made two u-turns and she was back on track.  She feels better since she got out yesterday and drove around.  She was telling Dad how to get home last night because he was confused.  BOL!

Our tree with the greyhound ornament under it.

Our thoughts still remain with the all the people who lost loved ones yesterday.  I don't think we will ever understand this senseless tragedy.

It Is A Sad Day In The U.S.

Mama was excited today to have the car for the first time here.  She went shopping. She visited Petsmart and bought us food and treats. She found a cute greyhound ornament at Petsmart.

Greyhound Ornament

She also shopped at a Super Target which is like a Supercenter Walmart.  They have a full grocery store.  Mama said she enjoyed leisurely shopping on her own today.

Mama was shocked when she came home and learned of the school shootings in Connecticut.  A kindergarten classroom was targeted.  It is just unbelievable.  It is a sad and terrible day in the United States. Newscasters are fighting back tears.  It is just so, so sad.
