Top 10 things we've learned about retirement and living in an RV

1)   Noseeums is one of God's cruel jokes.  "Yes, my child you may enjoy beautiful weather much of the year but just to remind you who is in charge I am sending these little Noseeums to bite you in the butt (and anywhere else they can land) to remind you that life can not always be beautiful."
2)   It should be against the law for RV manufacturers to put in full length mirrors.  Who, over the age of 55, wants to be reminded of gravity?
3)   Even after 40 years of marriage you can still learn something new about your partner.
4)   The world is run by rules.
5)   Rules are made to be broken.
6)   It doesn't matter where you do laundry.  The sock monster still finds you and eats a sock or two every time.
7)  When once you spent an entire day cleaning the house it now takes only one hour.
8)   Alone time?  What's that?
9)   There is no better sleep than sleeping in an RV during a thunder storm.
10) Having only one bathroom is a true test of compatibility.
