RV Rentals Business, Dumont Dunes

Busy day today.  I woke up and weighed in for my final weigh in for the weight loss challenge I am in.  I Lost weight! I started my day by making a curtain for one of our RV's that had a blind that was all kinda broken up, didn't work.  So I got out my sewing machine and measured the window and stitched up a cute curtain for the window.  I removed the valance, removed the blind from it and installed the curtain rod hardware.  Then I added the curtain and put the valance back up and voila!  It looks great again.  No more blind that won't work!  Then I went to the kitchen to make mine and my husband's  healthy shakes for breakfast.  Yum Pumpkin Spice flavor, so yummy and filling!  We then cleaned the RV together and got it all prepped to take to Little Dumont Sand Dunes.  I made ready our snacks and drinks so we could survive the day out in the desert!  I made us a Hydrate drink with H30 in it and I added herbal tea concentrate to mine for energy.  I filled up water bottles and packed bars for snacks.  We drove two trucks and delivered the RV we cleaned.  We talked to the nice people who are renting from us.  Great group!
Then we went to Big Dumont dunes and prepped three of our RV's out there for pick up, locked them up and went to the wash to pick up two different RV's out there.  One of them had a flat tire!  So we had to take time to pump that one up, it has a slow leak.  Then Kelly and I drove the two trucks and RV's out to Tacopa where we dropped them at the RV park there.. then it was on to Tacopa to pick up my purse which I left in the little cafe there Saturday night on accident!  I called the they put it in the safe for me.  Picked that up and then it was back to Dumont to pick up two we prepped earlier.
I stopped in to say hi to my sister in law's sister and her daughter.  Wendy let me know she was camping out there and described where they were camping and I found her!  We chatted and talked and it was fun to see her out there!
DUMONT DUNES  just N of BAKER CALIFORNIA
So then Kelly and I hooked up two from the group of three out by bathroom 10 and we drove them home.  By this time it was dusk, sun was going down.  Always fun to try to drive on the dirty, dusty road with the sunset in your face.  It was pretty hard to see!  Lol.  Then when the sun went down, I noticed that Kelly's chains were hanging a bit too low, I saw sparks.   I was able to pass him and get him to pull over and we got that all fixed.  By this time it's dark and I'm really wiped out.  a 10 hour day!  Kelly left to go get the last RV out at Dumont and we're done for the night.  Tomorrow we'll have 4 to clean and get ready for delivery for the big Thanksgiving weekend - we have all 9 booked and rented.  At least they aren't all being delivered the same day!!  We'll stay in our little Wildwood over the Thanksgiving weekend and our son Daniel will come out with us, help and spend time with us.  Always fun to be with kids, even if it is only one of them!  We are blessed to have so much business.  I'm beat, tired and done.
There is no cell service out there on the way and at Dumont.  I feel completely cut off from everyone, Lol!  I wasn't able to mail my twin sons a birthday card today.  I wasn't able to get them a birthday present.  There are MANY days like this one and I have no time to do the Mom or Grandma stuff.
We are on task to be building this business and have our son Daniel help us and eventually be the manager of the companies.  I love the time I'm in right now, but it is hard work and sometimes exhausting.  I don't always get to do the things I'd like to do, we work so much together and Kelly relies on me to help him a lot.  
I received some great news about my Mom's health this evening.  So happy she's 78 and still doing so well with her health, her and my Dad.  Love them so much.
That's it for now, busy day and good day!  Tired and ready to veg and watch some netflix.
Until another time!
