Is it just a dream??

Is it just a dream??

Do you ever wonder that about your life? I often wonder what would happen if one morning I woke up and I was somewhere in my past and all my life from that point to today had all been a dream. I would have woken up in my past, perhap 10-20 yrs ago. (I am 41, so that long ago wouldn't be a stretch for me lol). I wonder if I would wake up and think OMG, where is my life? My dh? My kids?? Would I just chalk it up to a crazy dream? Or would I try to make sure I made all the same decisions that led me on the path that resulted in my life today?

Good or bad I have no regrets about my past. I mean if I had to live it again I would hope to not make the same mistakes and some things I really could've done without. However you couldn't pay me to go back and do things over or have my life go another way. Even if you took me back to a time when I was skinnier and cuter LOL!!




No cell phones? How did we survive?

No cell phones? How did we survive?

I picture my future grandchildren gasping at the fact that when I was young we didn't have cell phones.

I picture my high school years being much freer then they were. Why? Because I was that idiot girl at home waiting for that phone call from "some guy", any guy for that matter, that never came.

What did we do when someone was late coming home? Had they been in an accident? Where were they? It seems that back then, it didn't matter. So, they were late, big deal. Now though, if someone is going to be late they had better call right?

My dh and I spend at least 80% of relationship living in different states. I think the only thing that keeps it going is the cell phone. That and the Verizon in network. Having access to each other 24/7 by cell makes it feel like he is less far away then he is.

Do you remember driving all over who knows where and in any type of weather? Now days, if we run to the store a mile away on a sunny day (as opposed to a blizzard) and we happen to forget our cell we panic. This cell phone of ours has practically become another limb off our body.

I so remember life without cell phones, ha, and computers(if ya want to go there?). It is one of those things where you can't miss what you never had. So when our grandchildren are laughing at us and wondering how on earth did we survive?? We can just sit back and think, "life was so much simpler back then".


Here we go again

Here we go again

What a week it has been. Obviously living in a house takes up more of my time then an RV, hence the serious lack of blogging. Does that mean I will never be living in an RV again? No, it does not. According to dh it is just on hold till next summer when the kids are out of school and we (dh that is) buys a new RV.

Here is what is going on. Dh is headed for Washington state next weekend to hopefully get a job there. There is a phase of a job manning up that will be overtime and last till in to December. So, I won't see dh till around Christmas time. If that all works out he will then head back to Vegas to be there the day after Christmas to sign the book for "show calls". Show calls are one to two week jobs, but are all overtime and excellent money. When you end work on one you just take the next show call out. It can be a few months of good work.

It has been busy here. Packing, moving, unpacking, setting up my room here and so forth. Visiting with my family and all the things that go along with that.

I will try to be better on my blogging. I even missed Wordless Wednesday, I am ashamed...

Oh, and dh came from Vegas this weekend. Well actually he got here mid morning Saturday and left just after midnight. He was only here for barely over twelve hours but it was better then nothing I guess. He has a lot to do to get ready to leave for Washington next weekend. The boys are really gonna miss him and he is going to miss the boys tons too.

It's been crazy here and I would just like things to be semi normal for a change (HA! as if).
