what's gone on since my last post Dec 27

We'll the month has just moved along..The week of the 8th moved along ok with plenty to do and fun to be had.. We had a dance Saturday night that didn't go so well. Lots of people started getting sick and feeling lightheaded so we cleared out the rec ctr called 911 and found out that fumes were backing up inside the ctr some how..several people registered high for Carbon Monx and the ctr was closed till it could be tested..lucky for everyone it was ready to open again by Tues.
On Sunday we had our mini E rally/cookout. Our friends W&G and S&J came over and we had a fun afternoon. Now for the blah part...I woke up Tues morning early chilled and feeling blah..I turned the heat on and got warmed back up and went back to bed. I woke up about 8ish and felt weak but ok..I got ready went to the office to do my two hours and all went well, by 2pm I was sick...the chills were back and the fever was on...I managed to get Lady to the groomers on Wed still not thinking I was too bad off but by Wed night I was pretty out of it and stayed that way till the next Wed. I didn't have the H1 flu but the other kind..it was awful...chills, fever, throwing up, headache...you get the idea. My faithful sidekick stuck by me through it all. Sleeping whereever I slept, she'd whine if she needed to go out but the rest of the time she just laid beside me while I slepted. I thought by Sunday I was some better but Monday I was down again..the fever finally broke sometime on Wed..I did my best though to stay away from everyone till my fever was gone for close to 48 hrs..By Friday I was feeling pretty good but I missed all the activities leading up to Christmas..But its over now so I'll look forward to the new year.
Our friends Phyllis and Larry arrived last Wednesday but I haven't seen them much, I stayed away from them waving from the rv when I saw them. They went to see friends in Bandera for the holidays so I'll see them when they get back. My park friends have been great. They sent over soup, cards, emails, baked goods and well wishes thru Reid..(I'm so glad he didn't get sick)
I'll get back into the swing of things this week and get out and about in the park to see if I've missed anything the past couple of weeks.
The weather this month has not been as good as last year, in fact the whole month has been cold, damp, and cloudy so we're hoping for a bright, sunny, drier and warmer January.

Time sure flies Dec 8th

I can't believe it's been almost a month since I've posted. The time is just moving along. The park is in full swing with activities going on all the time. We've had friends arrive from various parts of the country staying at different parks all around the valley. W&G arrived a few weeks ago and stopped by to say hello and Jo & Steve are staying in Los Fresno and we went to see them a couple weeks ago. Saturday they are all heading to our place for a cookout. That will be fun.
We went throught a rainy cold week last week but it's warmed back up and we're all hoping it stays this way for the rest of the season (we know it wont)but at least for now it's nice, warm and in the 80's again.
I've had some wonderful tangerines off my trees this week. I never thought we'd have fruit off them this soon. I figured it would take years. I also have a couple of grapefruit that I haven't tried yet.
Next week will be a busy week. we're having a craft fair and also a golf cart Christmas parade in addition to the regular activities. Lady also has a spa apt on Wed.
I guess I've got ya caught up so bye for now
