Packing The Motorhome

Well, that was Norma's last dental appointment. Seven hours driving and five minutes in the chair. He did not replace the post that broke and caused the infection. He wants to give it a couple of months for the bone to heal so she will have to live with what she has over the winter. They fit and work fine without it. There was no charge for the repairs.

Linda asked Norma how long it will take her to load the motorhome and get ready to leave and she said "two weeks". We started today and hopefully it will only take one week. Our housesitter moves in today. Poor guy. Rae remembers what that was like. He will be recruited to help.

Norma: "Croft, can you bring in all the silverware, plates, pots and pans and wash them all?". It was posed as a question but was really a command. I know my place.

Croft: "Yes dear".

Croft: "Do we really need place settings for 12? There are only two of us and the extras weigh a ton".

Norma: "We might have company".

Croft: "We have never had 12 for dinner and can only seat 4 anyway. If we have more than two guests we can ask them to bring their own plates and cutlery".

Norma: "That would be rude".

Croft: "Do we need four frying pans plus the electric one?  We only have three burners and we only used the medium one all last year".

Norma: "Yes, I need them all".

Croft: "Do we need eight pots? We only have three burners."

Norma: "OK, two of them are the same size so leave one at home."

YAHOO!! SUCCESS!!!! I downsized by one pound!!!!!! Pour me a scotch!!!

One day down and six (or thirteen) to go!

I can't wait to question her about the four sets of bedding and twelve pillow cases. And the three can openers, four wooden spoons, three garlic presses, five wine openers.........
