Tuesday January 29 2013

We had the motor home power washed and waxed this morning. It looks really beautiful. It was very dirty from the drive in the rain from Red Bay, AL.

Leslie called this morning. They aspirated the fluid on Monday but she said she can feel she is bloated back up again this morning. The doctor told her it will be at least another 48 hours before her body starts eliminating the excess fluid on it's own. She has been so sick and I feel so sorry for her. I hate being away when they are going through such a horrible time. She is not sure if they will release her to go home today or not but I told her she needs to stay until she starts getting some relief. She has had a lot of shoulder pain and shortness of breath. The xrays showed she had a small amount of fluid in her lungs as well.

We walked up to the club house about 11:15 for the weekly Burger Bash here at the resort. On the way up, we stopped and visited for awhile with Judy and Ken Jackson. They and Jan(Judy's sister) bought a park model here in the resort, which is very close to our RV Site. It is a beautiful place with a nice covered deck and an Arizona Room. The bank in Canada told them the money had been wired but the bank here in Yuma has not yet received. I know how frustrating this is as we dealt with the same thing when we bought our motor homes here in Arizona. It's like they are sending the money from outer space as it seems to take forever to arrive.

We walked on up to club house and had a hamburger and salad for lunch. The food is always good and is cheap. We were almost through eating when the entertainment began, From past experience, we know the entertainment is nothing we want to hear. The band is made up of residents from the resort and are quite talented but their choice of music is horrible. They always play country but from an era probably preceding my father's generation. I hate the songs and we always want to get the 'Hell out of Dodge' every time they start up!

We went to Walgreen's to pick up a prescription and while there I bought 'Icy Hot' patches for my back and some ZertecD. I cannot seem to kick this cold since leaving home but now am wondering if it is my annual Arizona sinus infection as my ears are hurting and I'm having daily headaches. My back is hurting so bad just below my shoulder blade and I really believe it is from coughing so hard. Each year I see a doctor here in Arizona and they always tell me to start on the ZertecD and give me Amocillian. I have a bottle of Amocillian that I bought in Mexico so will start it in a few days if Zertec does not help.

We got a phone call from Carole, Larry's sister, saying they found our passports at home. Thank God! I have driven myself crazy in the past 2 days trying to find them here in RV. I was almost certain I had brought them. I woke at 3:00am this morning and came out in the living room as I thought of another place to check for them. Thank you Carole and Ed for taking the time to look for them at the house! You truly saved my sanity!!!

We made a trip to Wally World, the first since arriving in Yuma. As always we buy more than intented, which is why Walmart is so successful. After we left we decided to eat at a Chinese Buffet by Walmart. The food was very good and abundant as all Chinese food restaurants seem to be. I left the restaurant with enough food left for my lunch tomorrow.
