Day 73

We hung around the trailer all morning waiting for the loan guy and the realtor to call. We were supposed to meet with both of them today. We got the calls about noon. Both of them wanted to meet tomorrow.

That sort of shot the motivation to do anything today. Instead we decided to buy ourselves Christmas presents. We got quite a bit of money for Christmas in the form of Amazon gift cards. We were planning to buy a netbook for use in the car. However, after we did some looking we found that for about $50 more we can get a small (11") notebook. We decided to go that route. In the interests of instant gratification we sprang for two day shipping.

Wife realized that we have built up a lot of reward points on a couple of credit cards. That happens when you use them to make virtually every purchase. She ordered an iPod Nano with the points from one card. She's ordering a pocket camera with the other.

All in all I would call that a very good Christmas.

It only got up to the high 40's today so the dog had to settle for a walk around the RV park. Even at that temperarture it was nice to sit in the sun at the dog exercise pen. It's interesting how it can seem warmer around here than it does in Oregon even though the air temperature is the same. It must be the lower humidity.
