RV Blog--Life in a Box. This just ain't 'camping' any more....

It sure is quiet with my daughter, the yarndiva gone off to Florida. We do spend a lot of time on the phone--her being one of my bestest friends and all.... :)
Well, it looks like we could be stuck here a bit longer, waiting for parts to fix the damage to the truck. But the good news is that the woman's insurance company is being ever so obliging! I'm in shock! He looked at our dually and shook his head and said, "I don't know if I'll be able to find one of these for a rental, but I'll try. I doubt in Enterprise has one..."! YIKES! I let him off the hook and told him we'd be just fine with a regular truck. :) He agreed to everything on the estimate and anything else that turned up that needed fixed! And I was all ready for battle--and will be grateful not to have to fight for repairs. Maybe the SD license plate did it. He may be thanking his lucky stars that they aren't having to pay for a campground, or to get us out to SD?
Yesterday, Kizzee the Cat-dog came close to a tragic end--when I came home to discover that she had hopped onto the table, knocked down the rubbermaid container fullof freshly made deer jerkey, gotten the lid off and consumed all but 3 pieces. Oh, lordy, I was pissed(pardon my language).She doesn't know it yet, but that little stunt was the last straw. From now on, she gets to wait for us in her carrier when we leave them indoors. Molly-the-good-dog can stay loose in the coach, but Kizzee's days of getting into the trash, onto the table, onto the kitchen counter are finished. Gotta laugh, tho. She has been drinking a LOT of water since she ate the jerky! And I doubt she'll enjoy 'passing' that pepper.
On today's "To Do" list is buying ground beef and making another batch of jerky. Won't be as good as the deer...
