Errands and More Errands

Hello! Okay, we are getting things done. I did some major spring cleaning today. With all the accumulated trip souvenirs I had brought out of the RV and home, I had to make some room, so I threw out two bags of junk I didn’t want anymore that I had forever (and why am I hanging on to the box my laptop came in three years ago and the box my netbook came in six months ago and the box my Blackberry came in a year ago???) and I took two bags of books to the library. I thought the library could use them, and when I dropped them off, the librarian was very appreciative :) . The only thing that lingers around now are magazines that pile up month after month. I have around 9 magazine subscriptions that show up in my mailbox month after month. I get Popular Science, Popular Mechanic, Trailer Life, Camping Life, Reader’s Digest, a magazine called Inc, another one called Fast Company, and much more!). Okay, maybe more than 9 a month! But I like reading. And a magazine isn’t like a book. With magazines, I tear out favorite articles and I *try* to throw away the magazine, but they just end up laying around creating stacks, almost like their own little village on my shelves. I’ve got to do something with them. When I had this problem a few years back, I tore off my name tag on magazines and dropped them off at nursing homes. They loved them! I wonder if I can still do that. Someone told me to drop them off at my local jail. Hmmmm, no thanks, something just doesn’t feel right with me on that one. I’ve never been near a jail and I’m not going to start by dropping off magazines there. I’ll check around and see where I can unload them. Hey, if you have any ideas on where I can drop them off, let me know. I must have 100 of them sitting around! Okay, now that I look at the pile, it’s more like 50.
Anyways, I went to Verizon Wireless today (yes, again) and I was told by the manager that if I buy a Blackberry that I can get the Mi-Fi 2200 internet card for free AND I can get another phone (simple flip phone) for free too! What a deal. We can sure use that Mi-Fi internet card next winter over the road. I got all excited about this deal, didn’t bite at it yet. I’ll wait another week or two to see what else comes up for a jackpot! Oh, speaking of changing cell phone companies…I will Not be changing my cell phone number. So, all of you that have my digits, keep using it and I’ll answer! :)
Today I had lunch at Five Guys burgers and fries restaurant. They just opened a restaurant here in Manchester two weeks ago. I’ve seen this chain in my travels, but don’t exactly remember where. So mom and I tried it out today and it was just “ok”, nothing to brag about and a tad over priced in my book. Two hamburger (1/3 of a pound hamburger patty), two sodas, and we shared a “regular” size fries came to $16 something. Like I said, it was just “ok”, and I will be staying with my Ruby Tuesdays for a hamburger because in my opinion, they have the best, oh, and don’t forget to order the mango iced tea while you are there!
Okay, tomorrow we are buying a huge massive tarp and we are pulling the Montana out from it’s hole and we are laying the tarp down and backing it over it. Try to make it so that those little rodents don’t get in and keep it off the dirt. That’s our project for tomorrow. Oh, and today I reconnected my internet router so we can use our laptops securely and with excellent internet signal once again! Well, we are already talking about next winters trip and I sure wish I could press that fast forward button. But until then, I’ll keep playing the lottery :) Have a great night and I’ll bug you later! :)
