ooh, oooh, talking about my generation..... well, here is my lame attempt at rock and roll classic punning. Today we discovered that we do in fact have a generator! We were blatantly misinformed by the last owner of our little old RV about what did and did not work. Today, wonderful news, we discovered she was all wrong! Everything works! We have electricity! I am laying in bed blogging on my laptop! And it is 10:43 p.m. I can stay up late! til all hours of the night, even! And I didn't have to spend megabucks buying a generator--we had one all along!
Life just got better! Just think of all the things I can now do, that I couldn't do yesterday. I can use my computer whenever I want to. The microwave works! I can watch movies for entertainment! TV shows! I can do Blogging check-ins. I can even download my pics. And you thought your life was dull! Think of how much you love your electricity! Think of doing without it for 4 weeks! Now the big question will be who gets to use the laptop and when!
Will asked me what I do and am I totally bored. A very good question. Today was not a boring day. Today I visited Martha, I went out to breakfast, I did my laundry, I bought vitamins, and filled Grover's prescriptions. I went out to lunch, where the waiter accidentally sent Grover's full cherry coke spilling across the table in my direction. (I wish I had had that in video slow-mo.) After getting some tips from the RV expert at Camping World, I did not spend $2000 I thought I was spending! I bought real homemade tamales on the way home and I got electricity! I'd say it was a pretty productive day!
Tomorrow is a new day! What in the world shall I do? Hmmmm, I have so many choices now. I'll keep you posted.

YAY!! "Howe" exciting to have a new world full of electricity opened to you. :) Will says congratulations!
Joy, you write with such delight that I can't believe you aren't the author in the family. Life in the RV with the generator sounds blissful. No lawn to mow, no garage to clean out, no walls that need painting. Don't get me wrong - I'm not doing any of this stuff; I am just thinking about doing them!
