This past week has been spent mostly cleaning the 5th Wheel we purchased. It is a very laborious job and not fun. Since the trailer has sat for 20 years, it is dirty and has a tacky film over the walls and cabinetry. I got through 2/3 of it and realized my first cleaning did not remove the film, so I have to reclean everything. At least, I got all the dirt out and so the second cleaning should go much faster, but it is discouraging and is slowing the process down. When I am finally finished, we will have a very nice trailer that will be like new for a fraction of the cost of a newer one, since it wasn't abused at all, and was only taken out about 10 times in those 20 years.
Last week our kitchen disposal got a hole in it, so we had to replace that. We are not having good luck. First our washing machine broke, then we had to replace our car tires, and now the disposal. I hope everything else keeps working. We also had to buy a microwave for the 5th wheel.
On Sunday, Bryce, Kate, and Kimball came for Sunday dinner. Kimball has sprouted four new top teeth. He is crawling very well and pulls himself into a standing position. He made short work of the books on the occasional table in the living room, dropping them onto the floor--it is a perfect height for him right now. We get to have him for an over-nighter on Thursday. That should be interesting.
We went on a short bike ride on Saturday and today. It feels good to be getting out on them. Hopefully, this will help Ed build some body strength. Summer is certainly here, and I am enjoying the warm air and sunshine.
