Monday - slept really well, it is very quiet here in the campground, other than the distant trains occasionally in the night. Had breakfast and then went for a long walk through the neighborhood. After we got home and cleaned up, we each received an email from Amazon telling us to report at 1:00 PM on Thursday and Friday for orientation sessions. Now we know when things will begin.
In the afternoon we went to the nearby dentist office and I made an appointment for the afternoon to have my tooth checked. Bummer. Then we went to the Walmart here in Coffeyville to get supplies and groceries. We stopped at Cox Communications, the local cable company to sign up for cable TV and Internet. We will use them and will drop our jet pack service for the next three months. Gary got the inside hookups done for us, we are good to go for internet and college football.
I went to the dentist late afternoon and am pleased with the results so far. He ground a little off my crown and then diagnosed that I may be clenching my teeth during the night, so gave me a temporary implement to wear in my mouth at night to see if things will improve, over a couple weeks trial. He wanted to try that before just going in and doing a root canal procedure. I think he may be right. After supper, I worked on caulking the bottom inside rail of the shower, we still are getting moisture on the outside rail after showering. Darn, hope it works this time.
Tuesday - we decided to drive to Lowell, Arkansas which has the closest Camping World store to us now. We had a couple things to return that we bought in Albuquerque and we needed a couple other supplies. Went through Joplin on the way down, which is about an hour away and then south to Lowell. About 2.25 hours total to get there. Then on the way back stopped in Bentonville, AR at the Sam's Club to pick up strawberries, etc. Bentonville is a very pretty town and then Bella Vista is just north, a popular retirement community. We drove on back roads through Oklahoma on the way home, it was a nice day to be out for a drive. Back home we put our groceries away and then went to El Pueblito, a local Mexican restaurant with good food!
Wednesday - another long walk before breakfast. We did 2 miles on the hospital sidewalk loop and another mile plus to and from the RV park. Today was a laundry and project day to get things done before we start work tomorrow. Our last free day, but we are ready to be on a schedule for awhile - AND start getting a paycheck again!
