I'm too lazy for this.

It's 9AM. So far this morning. I have greased the TT, Checked air in the TV, and TT tires, and cut the grass.
NOW. all I have to do before DW gets home. Is wash the TT, vaccume the house, load the bikes, grill, and compressor, hookup the TT, take a shower, and fix dinner (lunch for you young folks) Does this sound like too much work.? Does to me. But at the end of it all. I get to tow the TT for 5 1/2 hours, set it up, fix supper, and sit under the awning.

Life is good.

    After reading the first sentence, I had to take a nap. After third sentence...a beer. And then a few more beers after finishing the paragraph.

    I must say, tho'...You are a saint. I just don't know how you do it. She makes you fix Lunch and Supper before you get to sit under your awning? Good thing she's got a good job. Otherwise you might not want to bother keeping her around.

    Too much work left to the end!
    Too much to load to go, DW are just looking at bikes and bike rack for the 5er. the rest of Terryallan's list is already loaded. We spend the week after a trip to clean and restock the 5er do Laundry and refill propane, TV has on-board compressor, and we have a Q100 for the 5er.

    Forget about the vacuuming.....it can wait until you get back.

    Forget about washing TT......it'll just get dirty. It can wait until you get back

    Forget about the shower........you're going camping not to the theater

    Open up a can of pork & beans.

    That should take a load off and save you a couple hours which you can spend pacing back & forth waiting on DW to get home :B

    Hmmm, this post looked familiar and then I realized that I responded to it on a different RV forum.
