February 1 - 15, 2026 Olympics, SuperBowl, Valentine's Day!

1-Sun-I got up at 8:30 and we had a little breakfast and watched TV. Later we made our bed and got dressed. I worked on the picture book. It was a pretty routine day. I worked on pictures again in the afternoon. For supper we had eggs, Canadian bacon and thin bagels. 

2-Mon-Another routine morning. We got around and picked up the mail. Then we were off to the big Walmart and the neighborhood Walmart market. We went to two Walmart stores today. Sometimes you have to hit two stores to get all the things you need. I had to get printer ink at the regular Walmart and some other things. We got home and had lunch. Then I worked on the picture book and watched some TV. For supper I made chicken parm, couscous, salad and berries. 

3-Tue-I got up at 8:30. After breakfast we got dressed and made the bed. Then It was on to bill paying and catching up Quicken. Since I had more ink I printed pictures to put in the picture book. We had a nice walk to the park and then I worked on the Adventure book some more. At 4:00 PM I finally finished it! Yea!  We went to La Macarena and had supper with Linda and Hazel. I showed them our adventure book and they were impressed.

4-Wed-I got up about 8:20 today. We had breakfast and watched some TV. Then we had our showers. I cleaned up my picture book mess. Then it was time for lunch. We watched some TV and putzed around. I talked to my sister Marsha and she is very upset with the weather. I will say the weather seems to get stranger every year. We have had some very warm days (for winter) and some very cold days. My favorite temperature is about 59 - 70 degrees! I bought some valentine cards to mail to the grandkids and Kristi and her husband. We sent them a gift card along with the card. Also my other problem is that I have to find a difference primary care doctor. Mine is going to change to dermatology. We ate leftovers for supper. 


5-Thu-It was a routine morning. Steve’s sister called and said her ex husband fell and was in the hospital. We watched some TV and took a short walk. We ran our errands around town. We made a stop at the Dollar Store, Post  Office Foster’s Drug and Sprinkles. Then we went back home. I fixed for chicken enchiladas for supper. 

6-Fri-After completing our morning chores we watched the Olympics. Steve is working on the computer trying to organize pictures. We took a walk. Later we worked on putting stuff back in the RV. We have been trying to put things back in an orderly manner. For supper I made homemade pizza.

7-Sat-Well I got up at 8:30 and did the usual things. We got dressed and made our bed. Then we worked in the RV putting away more stuff. Later we took a walk and completed our bank statements and paid bills.

8-Sun-I was up a little later this morning, about 8:45. We watched some TV and got our selves around. We did a lot of TV watching today. First it was the Olympics and then it was the Superbowl. The big game was not that exciting, Seattle Seahawks won and the New England Patriots just did not seem to get going. I wanted Seattle to win though. We also took a walk today. I made stuffed chicken potato skins for our supper.


9-Mon-I got up and Steve and I had breakfast and watched a little TV. Then we made the bed and got dressed. We worked on our our laundry today also. I went out to the RV and sorted out some DVDs to donate. Supper was chicken nuggets (from Costco) in the air fryer, baked fries and mixed vegetables. We eat berries most nights.   


10-Tue-I was up a little earlier to day, 7:30. After breakfast we were headed to Stillwater. Steve had an appointment to get his orthotics fitted. Then we were off to Walmart Market to get groceries. We went home and unloaded our groceries. We had snacks for lunch. Then we hung out and watched TV. The girls wanted to go to Olive Garden for supper. So we drove back to Stillwater and ate at Olive Garden. We celebrated Linda’s birthday tonight.


11-Wed-We had another routine morning. Then I went outside with Steve to assist him. His brake lights on the pickup have not been working. So I had to use my talented foot and step on the brake while he worked to get the lights going. We also picked up the mail, went to the bank and the hardware store. I worked on revising our emergency contacts list and medication lists on the computer. Supper was turkey bacon, eggs, and thin bagels for supper, with berries for dessert. 


12-Thu-We got up about 8 and had our breakfast. We got around and left about 2:00 PM to drive to Ponca City. I had my mammogram appointment today. We were back to Perry by 5 PM. We stopped by Linda’s beauty shop and wished her Happy Birthday (on the actual day). We had frozen dinners for supper.


13-Fri-I was up at 7:00 this morning. A little earlier than usual.After breakfast, we got dressed and I fixed my hair. I went to the eye doctor at 10:00 AM. My eyes are about the same, no change, that is good news. I picked up the mail and some strawberries while I was out. After lunch we went to CCC Lake and took the dogs for a walk and a ride. They just love to take a ride in the pickup. I made pizza for supper.

Steve got me roses for Valentine's Day

I got these chocolate covered strawberries for Steve for his Valentine's Day surprise!



14-Sat-Happy Valentine’s Day! I got up a little late. Then we had breakfast and gave each other our Valentine Cards. We reconciled our bank accounts. Instead of lunch we drove up to Dairy Queen at Billings, OK and had a Red Velvet Blizzard. It was good! Then we went on up I-35 to the Tonkawa Casino and tried our hand at the slot machines. We each lost about $20. But I was up to $50 at one time. It rained on us while we were on the road. But it was dry at home. We ate leftover pizza for supper.

15-Sun-After breakfast we watched some RVers on You Tube and then Steve worked on his picture sorting on the computer. After lunch we checked the air in the RV tires. We also checked the oil and transmission. Steve talked to his sister Irene. Her ex husband died on Thursday the 12th. They are trying to figure out plans for the funeral. We plan to go out to Amarillo for the service. We will take the RV so the dogs can come along. Supper was fish, fries, green beans, and berries.
