Booking airline tickets the day before you plan to travel is tricky, though. We will be flying Spirit Airlines for the first time ever, because it's the only airline that offers prices somewhat less than a monthly mortgage payment for next day flying...pray for us. The name "Spirit" for an airline doesn't instill a lot of faith in the material physical integrity of an airplane. But, as always, our faith is in God, in whose mighty hand our spirits (and our bodies) safely rest.
We'll be arriving in Houston at midnight on Thursday and closing on our new home-on-wheels at PPL on Friday morning.
Now that all the repairs have been made, we are able to order our upgrades that Mark wanted for the home. At the top of that list was the We-Boost, which will give a boost to our telephone signal and help with reception in those areas where the signal is weak. We wanted to trade out the sofa for a double recliner, but we didn't have time. We'll have to do that after we get it back to Minnesota. Anybody need a sofa sleeper? Sweetie goes to her sitter this evening. One more night in this lovely hotel room, and then it's time to pack it all up and get back to our adventure.
On an unrelated note, does anybody know if these laundromat tokens work in all public laundries? Or just "Megawave"? That dastardly place gave me four of these as "change" for a $5 bill, along with four quarters. I didn't even look at them, thinking they were the dollar coins (talk about not paying attention!) Now I have to decide whether to do nothing and waste four dollars or drive all the way back to the laundromat, the one with the sign on the coin changer that says, "If you just need change, go somewhere else!", and ask for my money back. I guess I should at least try.
