Monday started out on a good note. We unhooked and closed up the slides of the motor home and went to get some diesel fuel so that we could make the short drive to Ancera Motors to have two of our awnings replaced. The sun gradually makes the awings brittle, and they have to be replaced. Imagine my surprise when I got the vehicle up onto I-10 to discover it would only go 25-30 mph up hills, and there are many hills in the Kerrville area. "What is happening?" I asked to no one. HW2 was following with the car so we could tour around San Antonio while the job on the motor home got done. At times like this, the motto is KEEP GOING. Taking about twice the amount of time, we finally pulled into Ancera RV repair to learn that they don't fix such problems, and we would have to take it to a second repair place (Freightliner). We left while the awnings were being replaced, and decided to walk through a very ritzy mall, get coffee and calm down. Easier said than done. Via cellphone we soon learned that only one awning had been ordered. In the early afternooon we picked up the motorhome and took it over to the second repair shop and discovered that we could hook up right there at Freightliner and stay the night in their gated community. At least we did not have to get a motel room.
Fortunately, HW1 learned that the clothing she wanted to buy was OUT OF HER PRICE RANGE and mine, too. Read her blog to see how much. WHEW! At that point my stress was going off the chart. I have now calmed down and hopefully the motor home will get fixed today, and we can get back to our lives in Kerrville until we head back to Omaha at the end of the month. This adventure continues!!!!!

I promise you, his stress chart did not go up because of those tops, because there was NO way I would ever have bought those! But, he was delighted when I found something that he also liked for much less at good ole Kohl's... on sale, with a discount! He even found some socks, too! And the nice young man at the check out felt so sorry for us that he gave us 30% off instead of just 15%. Now that improved our moods tremendously! I just love Kohl's!
