OPA 15 to 18 February MH, Home Expo, Snow

Thursday: Was back to looking for new home. Discouraged somewhat. So many things to consider. Wondering if over thinking. Overly concerned about future capabilities or lack of. Checked in with a couple of friends and they agree that my long term concerns are reasonable and should plan for. Made appointment to go look at a couple with realtor on Friday. Finished the second Dragon Knight book - Medallion. 

Friday: Found the size I want. The ones before were too big at 1800 sq ft. The two today were 1200 to 1350 sq feet. Felt more reasonable size that even as age I could keep up with. 

Saturday: thought of couple of things about Medicare supplement insurance to double check. Looked those things up.  USAA is still better deal. Did look for less expensive drug coverage and found one about half the price of the one offered by USAA through Humana. No one has Medicare Advantage plans for this area. That would be so nice to have all in one package. 

Drove around a new MH park, still has vacant lots. Found the main office, closed today. Take a look on Monday. They are putting different MH on the lots to sell, just the MH or land? There were two on the window, one sold, one still available. Smaller at 950 sq ft. Need measurements and take longer look at floor plan. Definite try on Monday. 

Also went to Home Building expo at the high school. Found an professional handy man. Info on heat/cool, custom home, etc. Nothing on manufactured homes. One vendor was a clinic in Port Angeles that takes casual walk ins while you wait to get a PCP. The local clinics have wait list. sigh  At least my two meds have refills left, so won't need doctor for six months or more. 

Sunday: I woke up late and just ran around getting ready for church. As ate breakfast dressed and ready to leave, looked at email and FB. Found message from Relief Society Secretary that church meetings were canceled due to snow....Snow? then I looked out and indeed the world was all white. It was so pretty and peaceful looking. Silent Night Holy Night came to mind. 

As quickly as possible finished breakfast and changed into going out into cold and snow clothes. Took cameras out. Fun! Need to get gloves that can work on phones. Fingers were only part that got cold when trying to take pictures with the phone. All the other parts had the right layers to stay comfortable. So many layers kinda hard to move. 

It has been decades since been in snow. It was neat watching it come down. While I was out it did start to get a little like ice pellets rather than fluffy flakes. Someone shoveled sidewalk and the street got plowed. Kinda surprised about that since private street. Glad have car in garage and don't have to go any where. Tomorrow will be worse with icy roads. 

Fixed a pot roast and did some laundry. Wrote up review of first Dragon Knight book and posted earlier. After finish this post, start post on the second book.
