Hi Darlin’,
Sleeping well, chores done, then ran out to do some errands, checked on Glenn’s pool, bought some hardware for the manure rake, stopped at the grocery store for milk and bread, then back to camp. Met with James H. for a bit, and James E. fixed my tractor auger and got it hooked up, so I’m good to go for putting the final posts in. Need to do a little research on that, I know there are a few more posts I need create, as well as painting some that are already out there that aren’t quite finished. Perfect weather, cool tonight, so maybe I can get it done next week. Settled down, binge-watched some more Travelers, but fell asleep in my chair, so I’m heading to bed early. Felt good most of the day, but think maybe the existing germs in my black gator might have put some back into my system, feeling more tired than I should. Anyway, a quick shower and then I’m off to bed! Good night, babe! Love you!

Hey Sweetie,
More sleep, basic chores, more reading, more television, a little computer work to make a Reservation Check In Report for James, and not much else again today! Guess I’m getting caught up on my rest, that’s for sure! Good night, honeybunch! Love you!

Hey Babe,
Another good night sleep, fed the horses and did morning chores, then fell asleep in my chair reading, so obviously I’m still recovering, not feeling 100 percent. Binge-watched Travelers some more, and that was pretty much it! Still fighting with the union over a contract, not looking too good, which is really going to kill me if I can’t get health insurance to cover the gap until I qualify for Medicare. Grrr! Anyway, heading to shower and bed and another night of sleep, and hopefully making more headway toward feeling better. Good night, my darlin’! Love you!

Hi Darlin’,
Well, I knew I had to run into town today because I needed horse feed and hay, so I also decided to run by the Health Center and get a covid test, since their website proclaimed they had drive-thru and walk-in free testing, but when I got there, that turned out to NOT be true. They wanted me to make an appointment, and they couldn’t make one for today, so I skipped it. I ran out to Glenn’s to drop off the mower gas I bought the other day, and to check on the pool, then I stopped at the hardware store trying to find a better screw for the manure rake but didn’t succeed in finding one. Finished off at Tractor Supply for horse feed and hay before heading back to camp. Wasn’t feeling too bad when I got up this morning, but all that activity seemed to wear me down, even though it wasn’t that much, so I’m not out of the woods yet. Figure I’ll just keep staying in until I truly feel better. I did order some free covid tests, don’t know how long they’ll take to get here, but if it’s fairly soon, maybe I can finally confirm or deny that’s what it is. Started bingeing a new series, Travelers, which keep my attention for the rest of the day. Ready for a shower and bed. Good night, sweetheart! Love you!

Hey Sweetie,
Had another good night sleep and another quiet day of recovery. My fever broke last evening, and I felt much better today, but figured I’d be better served to take another day off in self-imposed quarantine, since most places are closed today anyway. The campground emptied out throughout the day, and when I finally walked out to feed the horses dinner, the place was empty, at least the equestrian side. Delighted to find that every single stall and paddock was clean! First time I can say that after a busy weekend! Only one pile of trash that someone left on a picnic table (about 10 yards from the dumpster, would you believe!), and the same site where I learned the motorhome that was parked there had kept their generator on all night, so I’m going to have to make sure to keep an eye out for them again next time. So a very lazy day, but I’m feeling much better, and expect by tomorrow I’ll be as good as possible. Almost out of hay and feed so I’ll be having to go shopping tomorrow anyway, it will be good to get out of the abode for a bit! I’m sure Lola is bored still, we’ve barely even played fetch for the last few days. Read all morning, watch movies all afternoon, enjoyed some leftovers that Jim and Carol’s friend Ben made (oxtails and egg noodles!) so I didn’t even have to cook today. Ready for my shower and bed! Good night, babe! Love you!

Hi Babe,
Slept fitfully through the night and late into the morning, before I finally thought I was well enough to go feed the horses around 10:30. Barely made it, though, got a little dizzy, so went straight back to bed. Finally checked my temperature and I had a fever that got worse through the day. Finally just crawled into my recliner and watched movies all day. Even though it was 83 degrees in the trailer, I still had to put a blanket on to keep from shivering. I had Carol do the evening feed again, still trying to do nothing but rest. Sure hope I feel better tomorrow! Not fun! Good night, darlin’! Love you!
