I need to restring it and find a way to anchor it into the ground. This will do nicely until I can put up a proper one that can hold more than a small load of items.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I won&#8217;t have to <a href=\"http:\/\/travelswithmiranda.uskeba.ca\/?p=20093\">risk decapitation the next time I do laundry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We also firmed up our plans for next week. I&#8217;m leaving on Friday the 14th for Stettler to visit with Donna and Ken, and then going from there to Kelowna for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.okanagan.bc.ca\/Page17208.aspx\">RV Lifestyle Seminar<\/a>. I&#8217;ll be gone 11 days total.<\/p>\n<p>Miranda is in no shape to go anywhere, needing new tires, so I&#8217;m heading out in the truck only. Neelix is going to stay at C&amp;C&#8217;s while I&#8217;m gone. They have an adorable one-year-old cat and the two of them should get along great.<\/p>\n<p>Taking the truck only will slice my trip budget considerably (I&#8217;m estimating $600 for fuel instead of $1,500 &#8211; still OUCH). I&#8217;ll be very comfortable in Stettler and will be fine camping in the truck in Kelowna.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m looking forward to the seminar, but am continuing to regret what a mess it is making of my finances. I&#8217;m just not able to get ahead. and there are more expenses coming up as the summer progresses. And there&#8217;s the fact that the truck needs work before we can go. Yes, I&#8217;m working, but I sure could use another contract or two. Anyone know anyone who needs a transcriptionist? How about a French\/English translator? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>C&amp;C stopped in with a gift for me.
