RV Lifestyle Thoughts
Geeze I can’t believe I missed two months in a row to update my costs! Oh well, I’m back on it now.
I finally completed everything on my checklist! Go me!!!
Clean up wires in cargoMaybe run wires from the roof through the ceilingClean up roof wiresInstall new 200-watt panel
The big jobs were fixing the slideout floor and running the wires into the RV through the roof. Yet it was well worth the work. Now every time I move I don’t have to climb on the roof to unplug the solar panels.
I do have some more big renovations coming up on the RV. Right now I plan to repaint the interior and update a few things to make it feel more like a home and look updated. The paint I’m using is stain-resistant and allows you to wipe off stains with ease. Our current paint you can wipe off but it’s not easy nor fun.
After this next renovation, I think I will be done for a while with RV projects. Or at least I hope so!
Update!!!
I finally painted my interior of the RV!!! Wow, it was a tough job, especially living in it. I also did a custom floor on my slideout. It’s gorgeous especially when the sun or light hits it.
Only have a few more small things to work on the RV. Change out a few handles and light fixtures. I am going to get the outside washed and waxed, but I am outsourcing for that. Figure this year I am going to try to outsource more things to small businesses and get my time back.
I still am really enjoying the lifestyle.
In case you missed it here is last month’s breakdown. Keep on the journey and path!
