2012ooooops 2013! Takes a while to change the 2 to a 3.

Well an interesting new year has started.  Right off the bat it was Wednesday when we get propane delivered direct to our door.  Well when Clay attempted to call there was no answer.  About 11 we went to town and we just happened to follow the Butte ProPANE truck to home base   Ken went inside where two ladies were talking and they just continued to ignore him.  Finally the driver came in and the long/short of it was they are no longer delivering to motorhomes effective Jan 1.  hmmmmm.  Two weeks ago when they delivered his lips were zipped REAL tight and nothing was mentioned.  So we are once again reminded we are in New Mexico and they do things different here.
So now we begin the new cycle with a half full tank.  WE are okay as we've had the auxiliary hose since the beginning.  But Clay and who knows how many others are up the creek...............  Ken was a little more than disgusted...................which brought me to another realization (later).  Clay got Chip to come plumb a valve in and he'll get a tank and we'll simply join the 5th wheelers that get propane on their own.  There are a LOT of motorhome in the area so not sure how Butte will handle if they ALL get their propane somewhere else.  Clay and us will no longer be supporting them.

 New Year's Eve we went to the Legion to play pool.  Cliff/Karen were here on their way to AZ and it was almost Lisa's last night so we enjoyed a great time.  Ken was finally turning a corner so I didn't mind leaving him/Wiley to their own devices.  We LOVE having two tables to play on.  We have relegated the guys to the old one and we take the new one.  That ISN'T going to last long. And the other thing that won't be happening is Kathy/Maurene (aka Maurkat) stomping Deb/Phyllis (aka Dephil) into the ground.  We are going to have Kathy teach us about banking ALL of us not just Maurene.  :):)
As you can see here 2013 must be the year of the
tongue.  :)  2012 was the year of the butt and 2011 was the year of the finger.  Can't WAIT to find out what '14 will be.  I'm actually kinda nervous about that.
We began the year right with our Thursday pool beginning from 0/0 in the pool stakes.  WOOTWOOT!  The official score is Maurkat 5 and Dephil 5.  We like it!!! (I will not say HOW they lost that many - wouldn't want to be THAT nasty.  heheheheh!)

 And then there is Dave.  Bless his little heart.  Dave doesn't drink beer,  However once last year when life sent him a lemon he walked in straight to the table picked up the pitcher and drained it.  So when he walked in, looked at the tables to see no pitchers with beer in them he walked straight to the bar, ordered a mug and pretty much drained it.  Then he said he forgot his phone and got stuck.  He DID have his jeep with the winch but no shovel to dig a hole to bury the tire to attach to and pull himself out.  So he walked 8.1 miles to the Legion where he found a sucke,.,,,,,errr wonderful Mayno to take him back to get his jeep.  Poor Dave.  Last wee he got a peice of steel in his eye and took forever to find tghe RIGHT guy to finally buff the rust ring out and get him healed up.  Have I said lately they do things different here in New Mexico?

Maurene (the Maur of Maurkat) and Cliff seriously contemplate their next shot.  We are all praying for Maurene as she faces some medical procedure next week which might delay their foray over to AZ with Newell/Linda and Dave/Deb.  

I've come to the conclusion Ken needs to change happy pills.  He has doubled them a month ago but they sure aren't keeping him happy so go back Monday to find something newer.  Zoloft's been around awhile.

I am half way through changing my cassette books on tape to mp3 on my computer.  My boombox died so borrowed one from Wyn/Ki.  IT has decided the only function it will do is play and pause.  So that works for me.  I should be done early next week with this project and can send the books somewhere else.  I STILL have some VHS's to do but may take a few weeks off from that project.
