er, tires. That means I had to get tire covers to protect the new rubber. Off to Amazon to shop. I got a white vinyl spare tire cover, and four canvas tire covers to put around the tires on the ground. I also got my Durango some new floor mats. Waiting for DH to clean out the inside so said mats can be installed into a dirt- and rock-free tow vehicle. Still waiting.
Next, new blinds or curtain for some of the big windows. Dragonfly had some new blinds in a closet but apparently they don't want to be installed. Who knew window coverings had preferences? My sewing skills are almost non-existent, so I will have to cobble together something with, oh I dunno, staples, tape, or Velcro. The windows have those old-fashioned three-sided valences on them, making installation of anything difficult for the DIY challenged. I'll have to ask DH if he can get those off.
You may be wondering why I don't just do this myself? Well, my lungs don't work well and my back hurts, so doing "stuff" is a problem. I'm very good at supervising and giving instruction, but DH is not always willing to follow directions. Those of you who have, or have had, a kinda stubborn partner will know what I mean. He does the cooking so I can't be ungrateful, just sometimes impatient.
I'm still plotting my escape from the High Country, as we call it in Arizona. Thinking of at least taking a trip late summer or early fall, when the temps in lower elevations are cooler. As for where I might want to relocate... my mind is flitting from Oregon, to Michigan, to Maine. Flitting, like a Dragonfly.
