Friday before Saturday!

I had really good intentions to spend the day doing absolutely nothing. At least nothing I didn't want to do! That didn't work out, and the day's almost over. I have been a little lax in posting and haven't taken many pictures since we've arrived here in Yuma. We've got set up and acclimated now. Today was a work day. I got up and made Chicken and Noodles right off the bat..even before breakfast. The neighbor across the street was having his coach washed today and when he made the appointment I asked if he would go ahead and make one for us too, so we could get the road grime washed off.
Now we're nice and sparkly clean for the moment. The same guys washed and polished us today that did it back in April last year. There's lots of activity here, sales of lots and construction of Casitas all around.
Today I watched a coach come in and I watched him turn around and leave. I think there's no vacancy here now. The helicopter unit that graced us with their training schedule last year at the Marine Corp Air Base down the street are nowhere to be heard and outside of a couple of commercial passenger flights a day, it is very quiet here.
We have spent a few hours at the Pavillion here. We played cribbage on Tuesday, did laundry, DH played pool on Wednesday night and we have gone to the Fitness Center. This week's theme is "Come Fly With Us" and we attended a very good Pancake Breakfast complete with Blueberry Pancakes and Mimosas. It's been too cold for this chick to get in the pool...I tried that last year and got sick twice. We ran around yesterday, walking around the Indoor Marketplace swap meet...it is awesome and having lunch at a Wienersnitzel outside. Still a little breezy and cool to eat hot dogs outside, but today the breeze died and it was above 70...there's hope. Tomorrow is the Up, Up and Away Burger Bash by the pool, complete with live music.
We have tickets to that and also got tickets to the Oak Ridge Boys. They will play here in February in our Ballroom. We could be busy every minute of the day with some exercise or class of some kind. This place is pretty awesome.
Tomorrow we will also try to squeeze in a walk through the huge outside Swap Meet Arena just down the street. I will spend time doing nothing....one of these days!
