05/31/17 - On 5/26, I did go to Verizon to get a new phone and I could not make up my mind for a while and then of course they started in with all the promotions and I about went nuts. I finally decided on a phone, then was informed that my jet pack was quite old (only 4 years old) but of course a promotion, it is $50 with a $50 rebate and all I have to do is pay the taxes. I think about $40. I did need to up grade since I was so frustrated with my 6 gigs that were always running out at the end of the month. I learned part of the problem is that the last of the month, Windows 10 is always doing some form of update which involves my gigs. Also, when the phone was updated as well, it did the same. So of course my monthly payments are higher now because I did unlimited Internet so I don't have to worry again. They also talked me into a small tablet because it was a promotion with mother's day. The tablet was free but I had to pay taxes and then their was a monthly charge of $20. For the first three months, I also have to pay insurance on the jet pack, the phone and the tablet. Now we are up to $131 per month.
5/27, Went back to Verizon because not everything was working like I had anticipated and she fixed me up. Then off to buy some groceries since I was cooking Monday night.
5/28, Got up, went to church, out for lunch with Esther, Lloyd and Aunt Inez. Back to their house and we played some games and then I picked up my Kauffman first cousin (Ida Fay and Albert) and brought them back to the RV so they could see it. Took them back and went to Esther's house to pick up my range free absolutely fresh brown eggs.
5/29, I made sauerkraut and spare ribs for dinner and Esther, Lloyd, and Aunt Inez were here. I got eaten up by mosquitoes while telling them good bye. The back of my legs are horrible and it has not gotten better yet.
5/30, Started to put things away, get things ready for the drive north, did the laundry including the bed sheets and towels.
Today, I took the tire covers off, put more things away, took the tablet back to Verizon because I just don't need the extra expense and got a few more groceries. Now this evening will do the black water and getting more things stable for the move tomorrow.
