Four Days and Counting.....

Gideon has graduated officially. He was able to get his diploma this past week. On, Friday May 25, we moved him to Manhattan, KS with Gabe. Then we started the one week count down.

I have about half of the coach washed, polished and waxed and Gwen has started to move items into the coach. Last night we were able to move the flat files that Gideon made in woods shop this year into the basement of the coach. It looks like we have also found a covered storage area in Topeka for the coach, we have tried multiple places but no luck.

Note:

Motor Home (noun): a large motor vehicle equipped as living quarters.

Coach (noun 'koch): a large usually closed four-wheeled horse-drawn carriage having doors in the sides and an elevated seat in the front for the driver.

Camper (Noun /'kam-per'): a portable dwelling for use during casual travel and camping.

I like the sound of the Coach, even though the coach has already been named "The Nomad."

Nomad (noun no-mad): a member of a people who have no fixed residence but move from place to place usually seasonally and within a well-defined territory.

Our Mascot

Until our next post.....

So here we are, wandering around the house and thinking, "what have we been doing in the past 2 months that has made us so tired....?"

March 15th we sold our house...
March 17th to March 25th we spent Spring Break with my folks in Pensacola, FL...
March 29th through March 31 we were in Box Elder SD to set up our new state of residency...
April 4th we had our 1st April birthday...
Saturday April 7th we drove our purchased RV home from Manhattan, KS...
April 20th we had another birthday...
Saturday April 21, 28 and May 5th we had large whole house tag sales...
The following weeks were sales on CraigsList...
May 6th was a going away party from our friends at NorthLand Christian Church...
Gwen's last day at the Silver Lake Public Library was on May 16th...
Rick's last day at the Kansas Department of Labor was on May 17th...
May 19th was Gideon's Open House with friends and family...
May 20th Gideon graduated from Silver Lake High School...

What started this whole process?  Oh that's right! We accepted positions at the Waterfall Resort, west of Ketchikan, AK and purchased our one way tickets form May 31, in early March.

We wonder why we are tired, but I cannot worry about that YET...  I have to go wash and wax the RV this week and we need to pack it full.  Gideon is getting ready to move in with Gabe in Manhattan.  Gabe is already working his summer construction job.

Do you ever sit and wonder, "what is normal?" or "when will life slow down?" or even "does life ever slow down?"

I am contemplating if I will ever have some time to just sit and wonder.....

Till our next post....
