Good Morning….Here it is Thur. morning. I have worked 2 days this week. I volunteered for today. WHAT?? They don’t need me???? Well guess I have one foot out the door and they other one is waiting to exit also. haha..Well that’s OK. Part time check won’t be much. Or will their even be one. Lets see—-16 hours minus Insurance, Dental, 401k, Ill. tax, Fed tax, Medicare, Social Security, etc and etc….Mmmmmm….I bet I get an IOU….Not even enough for a tank of gas…..Well guess Rich better keep working. Hahaha…..My Social Security check better come fast….lol. Well now I have 5 days off before I go back. What to do …What to do…SO MUCH TO DO
I have added a few things to the right of the page. I have added the blogs that I follow on a regular basis. They are E-Mailed to me so I don’t miss them. One of them is” WORKERS ON WHEELS“. This is a site where you can go and see all the job postings in the US. It is amazing. This site posts jobs in their newsletter twice a week. If you are interested or just curious to see what is out their, check it out. This is one of the sites that we will be using to continue our Workamping after this winter. Click on the site and click on the jobs. Some are simply work for your site and some are money also. An average posting is asking you for around 20 to 25 hours a week between the couple and you get your site, which includes water and sewer hookup. Some give you an electric allowance. We are getting $100 towards ours this winter. Some also give you Wi Fi and Satellite. I figure our job this winter will be worth around $500 a month. All for just working 11 hours apiece a week. I will most likely be cleaning the halls or laundry room and bathrooms. Maybe even working in the office. I have already asked if she could teach me the Campground Master program for checking in guests. Rich will probably be doing maintenance. This will also give you structure every week. A purpose. Get out and meet all our other fellow campers. Or should I say “SNOWBIRDS”. Can you imagine Workamping in New Mexico up by Taos? How about around the mountains of Gatlinburg Tenn. in the summer. Then their is also the National Parks. You can do this at the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone or Mount Rushmore. Just dream on……Anything is possible. Go south to Florida, Texas or Arizona for the winter and then head anywhere you want for the summer.
The other 3 bloggers are fun people. Check them all out. Two have been doing this for years. One is a newspaper writer and puts out a quarterly newspaper, and also is an author. He has written a number of books. Nick just released another one. Very inexpensive and all on Kindle. He has been RVing full time for over 15 years I believe. Him and his wife Terry also offer seminars at Camping Rally’s. The blog “Our RV Adventures” is about Greg and Jan White. They have also been doing this for over 10 years I think. We met them last year down in the Texas oil fields. They are getting ready now to do this again. Gate Guarding the Oil Fields. Great money for a short term. By that I mean several months . Not something to do permanently , but their are some people who do. This is something that we also want to try. You know , we have to try it all. That’s what its all about….The Adventure of it….The 3rd blog is about Kelly and Micheal. They have only been out about 3 years now. He is a retired servicemen. Now contrary to what you may think, You don’t have to spend $250,000. to get a nice rig. hahaah….We sure didn’t. You will find with time , their are many people out their with Rvs made in the 70s and 80s. It is what ever you can afford. It doesn’t matter as long as your having fun.
I just had to add these pictures. This is Miley on her first day in Kindergarten. And their’s little Austin. His first day in Preschool. He did awesome. So darn cute aren’t they. Austin looks so tall, but Miley was down one step. lol
I want to add, I am not completely happy with this format. Their is something’s I want to do and can’t. Well at least I can’t figure it out yet. lol. Their is so much to learn . I am just clicking and messing around and seeing what happens. Glad its not a bomb, I would have blown up. For me its pretty technical….Ya know. I’m an OLD FART now. Or as a friend at work says…..Part time Peggy. haha….So things may change with time. I’m looking at different formats but haven’t found anything I like yet. Till Next Time………………………
