A few thoughts

Image
It's almost Thanksgiving and it will be just the two of us. The Loomis Levys haven't spoken to us since January and now that means if we don't have a relationship with them, we can't have time with the kids. Ouch that hurts. Anyway, saying more aggravated me so I'll leave it at that.  I am getting used to the inhibitor I am on. More tired than usually and I don't know if pains are from R.A. or the Cancer drug. Or cancer. I just had a uterine biopsy. Getting back into the swing of things here at the country club, which is nice, but I would really like to have a lake house in NY by the time we get back there.  As you know I love to post memes, etc. If one of Loomis Levys paid any attention, she would know that and would not have taken a meme seriously. I will share some here, but I get lots from Instagram, which I can't log onto right now! Truthfully, I am bone tired and don't have it in me right now.  Ok I'm back today and getting my hair cut and colo...

It is now October 15, 2022

 Although I had to look at my watch to know the date. We've spent the time mostly looking at houses in Monroe, NJ and then discovered that the over 55s were not dog friendly. I did get the furbabies to be emotional support dogs and psychiatric service dogs, but we are not ready to take them on the plane next week to go home. We have gone to a couple of campgrounds and went to Asbury Park. Initially we saw the kids every other day but neither one is working so we go in on Sundays because it is easier to park.  I am now on exemestane, the inhibitor to ward off any cancers. I was tired before now I could sleep all day. I'm having scans and doctor's appointments when I get home so maybe they can figure out what's wrong with my hip/back/leg pain!! Not really in the mood to write.

 August 7 There might be a narrative at some point but I'm just glad I could upload them.

August 2 Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park

Image
 After staying at a tent site because Bar Harbor Campground (we love this one!) is our favorite and there are no reservations, but the next day Elliott found someone pulling out of a campsite that back up to Frenchman's Bay. Elliott has been biking every other day and then we do something like a walk, or Jordan's or Remy's (see picture). We are seriously considering buying a place in an over 55 in Monroe, NJ and we are excited by it. 

Boston Chaos

 7/25 Ya it was crazy. Our doctor daughter was going to have us take her home to Waltham but as it turned out she decided to take the train so we would have time to pick up Elara. Well we did that and rather than stay at her pristine house for which she got an offer, she booked us and paid for a really nice campground not too far from her.  Shady Point Beach & Campground. Huge pull through in the woods. She might take one of the apartments she saw but most likely she'll wait a bit since she does not have to move until mid-September. On top of Covid, which is still here, we now have MonkeyPox. I don't even want to think about it since I love monkeys!! Elara aka Ellie Boo

Next leg of our travels

Image
 Tomorrow we will be heading to Boston and then up to Acadia National Park. We will be back in a couple of weeks. We didn't do much here, but we did go to the Riverwalk (man reading and walking) and the dam/waterfall. Here are a few more pics. 

Croton Point Park, NY

 July 16, 2022 We have been seeing Sheera every other day, which has worked out great and on the 24th our plans are to take Jaisa home (She'll be here looking for apartments.), stay with her for a few days and head up to Acadia. From there we'll come back to this nice campground for a week and then maybe go to Cape May. We already reserved Croton Point Park for the month of September and then we will head home. I had all these plans of moving to this area, but I miss CA, the weather, our friends, the activities.  I'll post some random pictures. We haven't done a whole lot of sightseeing. We know the area very well, especially the city. July 17 IT POURED and we found an annoying leak. It isn't huge but big enough that we have a pot under it.  I feel pretty good. Tired, of course, and my hip really is painful lying down.  Albert Jeff and dogs And a few thoughtful memes
