I've been doing a few thing to the MH this past week while it was warmer. I finally replaced the old 2002 25 inch TV in the front room of the MH with a nice 32 inch flat screen that uses much less amperage. I was not able to use the old one off grid, but this one I will be able to. Glad to get rid of that heavy relic.
I also added a smaller inverter to go with my 3000 watt converter. This one is 1100 and uses slightly less amperage while running. Both are still in place so I can easily switch back if I have problems.
I'm looking forward to heading south late November, especially with this winter weather we're going to have. I have all my doctor appointments in November. I feel pretty good and believe all will go well, but one never knows.
I was diagnosed with diabetes last year and went on a low carb diet immediately. I have done well and I do check my glucose regularly and it is now staying under 115 as an average. Much better than the 160 I had before. I have had pre-diabetes for many years and I can live with that label, just not the diabetes label. The only problem I have with the carb diet is keeping my weight up to a comfortable level. I know. There are alot of people who wish they had that problem.
Fall came so fast the leaves have already changed and many have blown off the trees with the winds we have had recently. Don't think Dolly and I will be going north to see the Fall leaves next week. Have to wait and see how the weather goes this week.
Have a fun and safe Halloween!
Sending positive vibes and thoughts that all your doctors appointments go well and you are on the road before the really cold weather hits.
ReplyDeleteThey have already had snow further north of you where we are from. Winter seems to want to rush right in this year.
Good luck with your doctors appointments hope all foes we, ad yo can head out on schedule.
DeleteYou did a nice job with your tv,
Thank you. Looking forward to getting out of the cold. Yuma hates it too.
DeleteI can't believe the cold hit so quickly. Hope it is only temporary and we have an Indian summer so I can get the yard work done before leaving.
DeleteNice to catch up with you! We, also, are sending good vibes for the appointments.
ReplyDeleteSounds like wise investments and upgrades in the MH.
Thank you. As a solo RVer, I don't use many amps. I'm trying to average about 6 amps so my meager 100 watt solar panel can keep up.
DeleteGlad you are heading to the southwest again, good luth you DR appointments hope all goes well.
ReplyDeleteThank you George. You and AL have put a little scare in me. I feel I can't count on good health just happening. Planning to go just the same. Missing last winter is enough.
DeleteWishing you all the best with those Doctor appointments Doug. I well know your feelings at the moment knowing you have a departure date set for the Great American Southwest and good for you in grabbing the opportunity for another adventuress winter in a warmer climate. Say hello to those mountains for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks Al. I'm going to miss you three this winter. I'll make a special trip back to Ghost Mountain this winter.
