I Never Specified Which Valley...

I have been back in the SGV for almost a week,  and it has rained almost constantly, which put a serious damper (pun intended) on my driving around. There are a few spots on the convertible top that need a bit more taping up.

The bottom line is that I am grateful to be here, more so now that the USB wireless adapter I ordered from ebay has arrived and I now appear to have decent wifi reception. I suppose I need to elucidate; I am now residing in an RV parked in a driveway with an extension cord from the house providing electricity to power the small refrigerator and lights and other appliances. Before I got the adapter, I had to open the door to ensure decent reception, something not so appealing when it's raining with temperatures ranging from the high 30's to the upper 50's depending on the time of day.

The sun was warm this morning. I should go outside and keep blogging there.

Nice idea, but the glare is making it difficult to tell if I'm making any spelling erros, er, errors. Back inside to see if this works in the back of the RV.

Nope, not so much, but now it seems like I can get consistent wifi. It may not seem like much, but for the internet junkie which I clearly have become, yeah, it matters. I had considered the possibility that the limited wifi might be an external means of me cutting down my internet time. We'll see.

I replaced the microwave that I had given to Angel last night. I celebrated by microwaving dinner; tortillas with ham, cheese and kale folded into pseudo quesadillas. I had toasted them the night before using the toaster oven that's missing the knob requiring me to turn it on using a set of vice grips. It's the little quirks like that that endear me to this situation as I continue to adapt.

I should go out and enjoy the sun while it's out. That thought never occurred to me while I was still living in South Pasadena. So I'm changing already.
