See John Work

Mobile living isn’t for the lazy. We have air conditioning, a king size bed, two flat screen TVs, instant hot water, a convection oven and lots of room. Still, every stop requires that we unhook the tow car and remove the automatic brake from the front seat so it can be driven, pull out water and waste hoses and electrical wires, hook them up, then pull out the chairs and table from underneath, set up the portable barbecue, lay out the patio rug – a must if you don’t want dirt and pebbles in your van – open the slides, and by then you are ready for your shower. Fortunately, I don’t do any of this. I sit idly by, typing these observances while John does all the work. I figure it’s payback for 40 years of wifedom.
