4/21/2009 No Mouse for the Quinn's

Well, we got up this morning, showered, dressed, did a few chores around the rig to help pass the time in anticipation of the park office opening at 9:30 so we could get our tickets for Disneyland and make the 20 minute trip to visit Mickey and Minnie. I walked through the office door at 9:31 only to be told that their allotment of tickets was gone but that more were ordered. I asked when they expected the next batch to arrive only to be told....next week. We won't be here then. So we scratched the trip to Disneyland. Oh yeah, we could have still gone and paid full price but after being in Disney World a dozen times and knowing that Disneyland fits in Disney World's PARKING LOT, well, I just wasn't putting that kind of money out for one quarter of the attractions we've seen in the sister park.

So what did we do? We stayed home. Neither one of us could come up with a thing to do. Just between you and me, I think we are having a hard time adjusting to being alone together 24/7 again and I'm getting on his nerves and he's getting on mine. Remember, we just spent several months hardly ever seeing each other because I was so busy and now we are never out of each other's sight. This is going to take awhile to adjust to again. Don't worry, we've gone through this before and we'll get through it.

So I spent the day reading, on the computer, on the phone and watching TV. Bob on the other hand spent his time outside working on the truck.

He installed the first part of the tire pressure monitoring system that we bought earlier this month. If he keeps adding gadgets our dashboard is soon going to rival a dash on a space shuttle!
