MONDAY / MARCH 18 / WONDERFUL WEATHER / HUBBY TO VEGAS AGAIN

MONDAY
MARCH 18 2024
 
 

 
Hubby woke me up at 2:30AM and he went to bed. I had told him that we could trade at Midnight, but i think he fell asleep.

After putting the new puppy out for poop and pee, I sat on the sofa with Riley. She slept most of the night. I had a restless sleep. I was cold and uncomfortable.

At 6AM, Riley woke me up by clawing on the sofa. I put her out for potty. I picked up the poos from outside. 

We went inside where I made a latte for Hubby, tea/nanogreens for myself.

I went to wake Hubby up at 7AM. He said he was exhausted. 

Hubby made breakfast for Tater and fed him. Riley barked at him while he was eating, so we had to put her outside. Then she came back inside to clean up the bits that Tater had spilled.

I vacuumed in the house. Hubby changed cat litter. I made the bed. 
 
Hubby had to find the Title for the Ford F450. It was mis-filed in the UTV file.

Tater & Hubby left for the shop at 8:30AM. 

I put Riley out again for potty.

I put away clean dishes and put more dirty dishes in the dishwasher. I put dirty clothes in the washer and started it. 

I did bookwork. I took Riley outside again. More poop & pee.


RILEY BEING CUTE OUTSIDE IN THE BACKYARD
 
 
 
I texted Spencer to ask him how to add things to Instagram and Facebook and YouTube. He was very helpful. I posted lots of pictures to Instagram account.

I took Riley out several times today. She was such a good little girl. She kept going to the door on her own and I would watch for her. 
 
Riley has not taken a nap at all today. She laid down on the floor several times, but did not take a big nap. I was hoping I could nap when she did this afternoon; I am exhausted.

Hubby & Tater drove into Las Vegas again so that Hubby could drop off shocks at Vital Motion. He will wait there while they work on the shocks, so he won't have to return again. Hubby & Tater left from the shop at 2:45PM. Hubby called to say that we need a new rug in the front room of the shop because Tater had explosive diarrhea all over it. He threw the rug away.

Then Hubby called to tell me that in Vegas, Tater had vomited. He is worried about the dog. I told him that if it continues tomorrow, we will take him to the ER Vet in St George tomorrow night.

I steam cleaned the floors in the house at 4:30PM.

SUNDAY / MARCH 17 / ST PATRICKS DAY

SUNDAY
MARCH 17 2024
ST PATRICK'S DAY
 


 


I went to start the dryer again at 2AM and the little dog got up on the side table. She knocked over my tea, so I had to clean that up. I put her out for potty.

Then I put up the food & water in the bathroom. She settled down again and slept until 6:30AM. 

I got up with her and put her out. She pooped and peed.
 
I made a latte for Hubby. I made hot tea for myself.
 
I woke Hubby up at 7AM.  

Hubby made breakfast for Tater. Riley barked at Tater the whole time he was eating and finally finished off the last bits Tater missed.

Hubby & I cleaned the cat litter out of the shower. Hubby took a shower. The phone rang and Hubby assumed it was SPAM. It was a customer who had gotten a card & duck on their vehicle. The woman was calling because their UTV had blown a clutch & belt. So Hubby told her we would be at the shop by 9AM. 

We got ready. I changed clothes. We locked the doors. Loaded the dogs into the Dually and drove to the shop.

At the shop, Hubby got the clutch out and the woman with her sister-in-law arrived shortly after. We loaded them up with RMOR bling. They adored the puppy. The sister-in-law had a brace just exactly like Hubby's; we talked about it for a while.

The women left. 

We took the Dually to Jose's yard to load the trailer. The little new dog put her head out the window and her ears were flying - she kept turning around to look at Tater out the back window. She loves her Tater.

RILEY OUT THE WINDOW


Hubby loaded the trailer.

Then the woman called again. They had forgotten the belt, so Hubby stopped at the shop to get it and we drove to Falcon Crest where they lived to drop it off. About 8-10 UTVs were gathered in their driveway. All the guys dropped their jaws as Hubby drove in with the Dually. The guys had to talk about the truck & open the hood while I went over to talk with the other women and show off my puppy, Riley.
 
We left after about 20 minutes. Drove home. I am exhausted.

One of the friends followed us to the shop and Hubby gave him a tool to help get the clutch off. 
 
We saw Dave & Carmen pass us in their car. The guy left with the tool.

We drove home. I am exhausted.

Riley fell dead asleep on the console. 

At home, I got out with Tater and took my tea inside. Hubby brought the little puppy inside and put her down on the sofa. She fell asleep again.
 
 
RILEY OUT THE FENCE
RILEY USING THE MINI DOG BED
 

We ordered lots of clutches, tools, and snips on the internet. I did bookwork. 

Hubby made chicken on the grille, he made peppers on the grilled, he baked potatoes on the grille.
 
Hubby transplanted the Yucca that we had gone to St George for a new pot. The pot is super huge and hopefully the Yucca has lots of room to grow. Hubby kept getting stabbed until I went out with a pair of leather gloves to lift it out for him to put in the new dirt. It looks good.
 
TRANSPLANTED YUCCA
 

The guy from the clutch called and said it did not fit, so we ordered another clutch to be delivered next day air. 

I put the clean, dry comforter on our bed. 

I took a nap. At 2:30PM, I got up and Hubby had already called to check on what time the Muscle Cars On The Strip closes. Hubby said we had to pick up the car before 6PM. 

I got changed, put on makeup. Hubby got collars on the dogs and we left at 3PM. 

Drove to Las Vegas. Made really great time. Hubby loaded the car, hit the tire on the sidewall and got a flat, then picked up 2 Event t-shirts for $35. 

We drove to Sin Fronteras (two cops sitting out front) and parked the trailer & truck at the side of the building, gave the dogs a walk (no grass) and water. Then we went to eat. 

Hubby got the Burrito. I got Streeet Tacos.

HUBBY WITH BURRITO AT SIN FRONTERAS
STREET TACOS FOR ME AT SIN FRONTERAS

We then were going to get on the 215 and head for home, after walking the dogs at the local park. Ran into a nice woman pushing a baby in a cart and I let the baby pet the puppy. Everybody near us complimented on Tater. The baby had a little runny nose. I wished the lady & her daughter a nice night. Very friendly.
 
 

 
Both of us talked about ice cream from Baskin Robbins. I found one local and we stopped. Hubby got XXX and I got World Class Chocolate. Some young kid opened the door for me after I got napkins and I told him that I needed napkins cause Hubby gets so messy, Hubby said he gets it all over the truck. We walked out and the kid (after many god-bless yous, too much god xxx wow) complimented Hubby on his "Fattie". The dually. 

We drove home. I made Hubby go slower because it was getting dark. He stresses me out so much when he drives. It always has to be 90mph or more. Ugh. 

At home, I was exhausted and went to bed right away at 8:30PM. 

Hubby woke me up at 2:30AM to look after the dog. He went to bed.

SATURDAY / MARCH 16 / RAIN RAIN RAIN / SUNSHINE IN PM / BROCHURES

SATURDAY
MARCH 16 2024
 
 
 
 
At 1AM I woke Hubby up and told him to go to bed. I took over watching the dog. 
 
I took Riley out several times for potty. 
 
Riley was sleeping from 3AM to 5AM. So I slept, too. She woke me up by jumping on the sofa to get my attention. I took her out again at 5AM to pee & poop. Then we came back inside and she played with & chewed on her toys for a while.

I got Hubby up at 6AM to relieve me looking after the new dog. I made a latte for him and hot tea for me. 

Hubby made new breakfast for Tater. He made a burrito with the last of his "burrito starter" that he had been hoarding for a few months.

Then I slept on the sofa until 7AM. 

I got up and made the bed. Helped Hubby put laundry in the washer. Put clean dishes away. I vacuumed up cat litter. 

Joe H (quite drugged) called from his hospital bed at the Mayo Clinic in Minneapolis, MN and talked for a while. He was doing better!

Hubby left at 9AM to go help neighbor Stan haul a use eliptical that he bought to his house. Hubby still had the trailer attached to his truck. 

When he got home, Hubby made some lunch. Then we took the dogs with us to unhook the trailer at Jose's lot. 

We stopped at UPS to drop off packages to return. We washed the truck at the Car Wash in the Walmart parking lot. Then we left the dogs in the truck to get groceries. A Citizen's Patrol was checking handicapped signs for vehicles parked in the handicapped access at Walmart.

We got groceries and a baby gate for the new dog so she does not get into the office to chew cords. 

I had diarrhea at Walmart; had to use the restroom in the back. 

Then we checked out. I took the keys and went to the truck. Rolled the windows down. The temperature had risen 15 degrees and the sun was shining. Riley was sleeping on the floor. She almost fell out of the truck.

We drove to Tractor Supply to buy garden soil to transplant my plant on the patio; Hubby brought out a tea for me and a Starbucks for himself.

We drove home and unloaded groceries. Put dogs out to potty. 

Then I made business cards with holes & attached them to ducks; found the brochures. 

We loaded the dogs again and drove to the Casablanca to pass out brochures & ducks. Then we stopped at the shop to find more brochures. Took them to the OHV Parking area and unloaded more. There was a group there called Mean Gene Mayhem that meets once a year. We stopped to give them a brochure and Hubby talked with the Club to advise we would help sponsor the event.
 
Riley happened to get into the box that I had put the ducks into and when I opened the truck door, she ALMOST FELL OUT OF THE TRUCK. I caught it just in time. 

Drove to Virgin Valley and put more brochures & ducks on vehicles there. We were going to drive out to Scenic, but Hubby got on the Interstate instead by mistake. As we drove by the Scenic parking area, there were only 2 trucks with trailers there. 
 
TATER & RILEY IN THE TRUCK
RILEY ON THE CONSOLE IN THE TRUCK
 

We drove to the TA Plaza, but there were no vehicles parked there. Instead, Hubby went inside to get pizza, drinks, and lottery tickets. 
 
Listened to about 3 cars honking with security devices. OMG. 

We drove back to Mesquite. Saw LOTS of trailers in the parking lot at Virgin Valley Food Mart parking lot across from the Eureka. We did not have any brochures left, so I will have to order more. 

We drove home. Hubby let me & the dogs off at home. He drove over to the neighbors to drop off some steps that a customer had left at the shop as he could not take them home in his UTV. Hubby also dropped off some security street orange cones at the Virgin Valley 4x4 Club president's home.

I went home to do bookwork. The dogs took naps after I let them out for potty & water. 

Hubby watched Automotive shows for a while. He put the dogs outside for potty several times.

We updated the Facebook with pictures. 
 
I went to our bedroom to sleep, and put Riley on the bed as she was fast asleep. However, Sage woke her up and Riley peed on the comforter! 

I had to take the comforter and put it in the washer. I was so tired and exhausted, I just wanted to sleep.
 
I finally got into bed at 11PM and slept until Midnight. Then I got up and sent Hubby to bed. I sat on the sofa with Riley. She was playing with & chewing on her toys.
 
At 1AM, I put the comforter on dry again.

FRIDAY / RAIN RAIN RAIN / HUBBY SHOWS CAR AT LAS VEGAS MOTOR SPEEDWAY / SEVERE HAIL STORM

FRIDAY
3-15-2024 






Awake most of the night with Riley. Keep going outside every 30 minutes. She slept for 2 hours beside the sofa and I took a nap on the sofa. 

Up at 5:50AM and took her outside again. She pooped & peed. I saw the fat guy with his wife go walking past our house. IT STARTED RAINING. I dragged the dog beds under the patio.

Then I woke Hubby up at 6AM so he could take care of the dogs while I got a couple hours of sleep. I made a latte for him. I went to bed in our room. 

Sage kept trying to walk on me and at first I could not fall asleep,but then I went to sleep.

At 8:30AM, Hubby woke me up and helped me make the bed. 
 
Tater & Hubby left for the shop at 8:35AM. 
 
I put clothes in the dryer. I put away clean dishes.  

I tried to do books, but Quickbooks was down.

I sat down to have sweet potato fries with Ketchup when Rattler decided to jump on the side table and spill everything. Not blood, just ketchup everywhere. Riley wanted to eat it all! 

KETCHUP SPILLED EVERYWHERE

Hubby & Tater went to Vegas with his Dually to Las Vegas Motor Speedway to drop off the Ranchero in the Barn Finds category so it can get sold. 

He was gone from 2PM to 5PM. He encountered lots of hail in a sudden severe rain storm. 
 
HAIL STORM 20 MILES OUTSIDE OF LAS VEGAS
CARS SLID OFF THE INTERSTATE I-15
HAIL STORMS/SNOW IN LAS VEGAS (CLIMATE CHANGE?)

 
 
Hubby got back and we watched TV for a while. I took a hot bath because I was so tired and exhausted from staying up all night with the new dog. RILEY. 
 
Hubby sat down to watch TV and eat, but Riley walked on the side table and spilled his milk all over. I had to give her a bath (HER FIRST BATH HERE) while Hubby cleaned up the milk.
 
I went to bed at 8PM and got up 1AM. I woke Hubby up and told him to go to bed. I took over watching the dog. 
 
I took Riley out several times for potty. 
 
Riley took a nap from 3AM to 5AM and I napped also. She woke me up at 5AM and I took her out for potty. She peed & pooped. 
 
I went to wake Hubby up at 6AM so I could take a nap.

THURSDAY / MARCH 14 / WINDY WINDY WINDY

MARCH 14 2024
THURSDAY



I sat up with Riley all night again. She did not have any messes in the house. She went to the door several times to go outside. 

I was exhausted after receiving almost no sleep, with a few naps here & there while Skylar slept 

I woke Hubby up at 6AM and asked him to watch the dog for me while I slept.

I slept on the sofa from 6AM to 7:30AM. Then I got up and made a latte for Hubby. I made hot tea for myself. I threw in some sausages for breakfast. 

Hubby had already fed Tater and made breakfast for himself.

I put dishes in dishwasher. I put laundry in washer. 

Then I got sick. Diarrhea. 

Hubby & Tater left for the shop at 8:30AM in the Dually.

I was sick for the rest of the day. Diarrhea all day long. Severe. All my body hurt. 
 
RILEY NAPPING ON SOFA

 
 
I let Riley out all day long. I tried to nap, but could not. 
 
Hubby called and wanted me to meet him to pick up a Jeep at the Tire store, but I could not go because I was so sick.
 
SKYLAR PLAYING WITH TOYS
 
 
At 3PM, I asked Hubby to come home early so that I could take a hot bath.  

I took a hot bath anyway and Riley sat with me in the bathroom. 
 
RILEY IN THE BATHROOM

 

Hubby finally got home and I took a nap while he watched the dogs. 

I was hurting all over. I slept in the bedroom until 8PM. Then I got up and felt a little better. I was hot & sweaty. 

I took another bath. 
 
RILEY NAPPING ON FLOOR
 

Hubby got the bed ready, but I had to sit on the sofa all night with Riley.

WEDNESDAY / MARCH 13 / DIET SHOT / COOLER /

WEDNESDAY
MARCH 13 2024 





Not a great night. Have to remember to run the new dog around before bedtime so she sleeps all night. 

When we went to bed, she would not settle down, biting me-playing. So I got up and took her out to the sofa. She chewed on her beef tendon and toys for a while. 

At Midnight, she fell asleep. So I carefully carried her to the bed and put her on the pillow. She slept until 2AM when she FELL OUT OF THE BED! She is Roly-Poly and did not hurt any bones.

I tried to get up and dressed. Had to take off my socks with cream on my feet, changed into jeans in the bathroom, went potty before I could take her out. But she peed in the bathroom AND WALKED IN IT. I had to run water with a washrag to rinse off her feet. 

Then I took her out for a while, but no poop or pee. It was cold outside.

We came back inside and she wanted to play again. Chewing on toys, chewing on her beef tendon. 

At 2:58AM, a worker came to get the belly dump semi truck and drove it down to Mesquite. WORKING AT THIS TIME OF DAY? WTF?

Finally, Riley fell asleep and then I covered myself up with a blanket and sat on the heating pad. It was freezing in the house, but I did not want to get up to disturb the dog. 

We both fell asleep. 

But then Hubby got up at 4AM. He mumbled to Tater and then went to use the potty. He slammed the door, flushed the toilet, and then back to bed. Yelled at Tater to "Move Over!" Which woke up the little dog.

I had to take her outside AGAIN. She did pee this time. Yippee. But she wanted to play outside. Run around. I am so exhausted at this point. 

She finally got done playing and we went inside again. She sat on the sofa again and chewed on her toys. I fell asleep again. She must have fallen asleep again, too. 

Hubby came out with Tater at 6AM to let him out for potty. I let Hubby take Riley out again while I fell asleep on the sofa for another 30 minutes! 

I got up at 6:35AM and made latte for hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself. 

Then I made some sausage in the air fryer. Hubby had made egg cups and some flat croissants. He did not have an explanation of why they were flat other than "I was tired."

Hubby cleaned cat litter. I put out the new cat box, but Hubby did not like it. The other box was missing a hinge, so it has to go back.

Hubby & Tater left for the shop at 8:30AM. They drove the Dually to the shop.

I took Riley in the FMF and drove to Enliven to get my diet shot. I went up to 12.5 mg. 

Drove back home.

Did bookwork until 11AM. Riley slept on the floor in the corner while I did books.

I made more hot tea. It is still cold in the house.

I fell asleep sitting up on the sofa with Riley sitting next to me. She woke up and I took her outside for potty. 

Hubby & Tater got home at 4PM. Tater went out for potty with Riley. Then Hubby made himself some dinner. He sat on the sofa to do bookwork.

I ordered some racing gloves to put in a speical "bag" that Hubby is going to make up for the Jeep Club enthusiasts. 
 
I did bookwork while Hubby watched the dogs. 
 
We watched some TV. 
 
Hubby went to bed at 10PM. I stayed up on the sofa with Riley.

Tuesday, March 12, 2024

TUESDAY / MARCH 12 / COOLER

 TUESDAY
MARCH 12 2024
 
 

 
Riley slept with us all night in the middle of the bed on top of the pillow. I petted her all night to make sure she knew we were there. THERE NO WHINING AT ALL

At 4AM, I got up to potty, took Riley outside for potty. She pooped AND peed! Then I sat on the sofa with the heating pad. It was freezing in the house. I turned on the fireplace to warm up, but it turned off later. 
 
Hubby got up at 5AM, let Tater out and then went back to bed. 
 
Skylar was snuggled in next to me on the sofa as I was sitting there napping.
 
I was severely tired, but got up and dressed. Made latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself.
 
Heated up sausages in the air-fryer. Hubby had a burrito and made breakfast eggs for Tater. 
 
Tater growled at Riley as she came close when he was eating. Probably making sure she knew not to eat his food. 
 
Hubby made grilled chicken outside on the grille. 
 
Hubby & Tater left at 8:30AM after doing cat litter. 
 
THE TIME CHANGE IS REALLY DIFFICULT ON US.  We used to wake up and leisurely get ready, had extra time in the morning, now it seems like we are rushing and running out of time. Cannot sit to enjoy our mornings.
 
I cleaned up the house. Put away clean clothes. Put away clean dishes. 
 
The Cleaners got here at NOON. Riley and I sat outside. It was cooler, I turned on the fireplace. 
 
The neighbors came over to see the new puppy. Amy & Warren.

SKYLAR SITTING OUTSIDE ON PATIO WITH ME

 
Cleaners left at 1PM. I turned off the fireplace and went inside. 
 
RILEY SLEEPING IN THE CORNER OF MY OFFICE
 
 
Hubby called and wanted me to pick him up at the Tire store.
 
Betty came over at 2:20-2:50PM so I could show her how to take care of the cats. 
 
Hubby called me at 3:10PM to meet him at the Tire Store to pick him & Tater up. 
 
I drove there with Riley and we picked them up. Then we drove to Tractor Supply to purchase chains  for the camper and a new harness (red) for Riley. The harness is too big. We needed cat size, but they did not have it there. We left Tater in the car, but I hurried out to roll the windows down until Hubby was done shopping.

We drove straight home. We decided NOT TO GO PICK UP THE CAMPER as there was a HUGE storm coming in and Ely NV, Wells NV, and Jackpot NV are all in the way of snow, blowing snow, and ice on the roads. We are NOT going to do another trip in a winter storm. 

We got home and watched TV for a while. I was exhausted. We played with Riley for a while. She took a long nap behind the sofa against the wall.
 
RILEY & HUBBY ON THE SOFA
 

At 10:00PM, we went to bed.

MONDAY / MARCH 11 / DRIVE TO VEGAS FOR SHOCKS / DRIVE TO ENTERPRISE UT FOR DOG

MONDAY
MARCH 11 2024 




Up at 4AM. Time change is really doing fucked up things with my head. 

I went to get the red winter blanket from the living room and then slept in the front bedroom until 6AM when Hubby got up and used the spare bathroom. He turned the light on in the bedroom where I was sleeping and woke me up. He did not see me there. Thought I was still sleeping in our bedroom.

I got up and dressed. Made the bed. Let Tater out for potty. Hubby fed Tater some breakfast. Then I made latte for Hubby, tea for myself. I would make Nanogreens when I returned home.

Hubby put Tater's dog bed in the back of the FMF. I brought my pillow for comfort. We took the FMF to Vegas to pick up the shocks from Robert's house at Vital Suspension. 

We stopped to get fuel $3.37 at some out-of-the-way gas station, Hubby had to turn around because all the other stations were $4.45! We saw a Twice-Baked Potato restaurant right across from the gas station and both of said we wanted to eat there some time. 

Stopped at a park to walk Tater on his leash. Lots of memorials plaques by trees. Mountain Crest Park just off Durango. 

Drove home. 

At Mesquite, Hubby had to have breakfast, so he drove thru Wendy's and got a baconator. Maple bacon chicken for me.

When we reached home, I unloaded Tater. Then let the dog out for potty. I went to eat my sandwich, but there was NO MAPLE ON IT. Dry as hell. 

Hubby moved the Dually over so I could get the Jeep out. There was a huge box on the front porch. Brought the box inside. Hubby left for the shop.

I drove the Jeep down to Enliven to get my diet shot, but there WERE 12 CARS PARKED OUTSIDE. I decided to come in at 9AM on Wednesday instead.

I drove home again. Put maple on my sandwich, finished my sandwich. I did bookwork.

I took a nap from 1PM to 2PM. I was exhausted. Tater napped all day.

At 3PM, I called Hubby to let him know we had to leave. He was still helping customers. He finally left the shop at 3:30PM. When he got home, I already had a sandwich made for him. We drove to St George, then north to Enterprise UT to pick up the new dog.

The breeder lived on the end of a street and was a very tall woman, her daughter was there, and her mother. They were about 7' tall! Even Hubby looked dwarfed standing next to them. 

Another female dog that belonged to her mother was feeding the pups and gave Riley one last suck with her brothers & sisters.

We paid them for the dog, got all the pertinent info and left. We named her Skylar (later changed to Riley). She was born January 9 so she is 9 weeks old. Very young to be away from her mother. She has had her first 2 series of shots.


 
 
 
We stopped just outside of St George on the walkway area into town because Riley had thrown up just a little bit of her non-digested food. We cleaned it off the towel that I had over a pillow on my lap. She rode in the car very well. 

Tater & Hubby got out and Tater went potty. But there was broken glass so Tater had to be careful. I walked Riley on a leash (have to get a cat collar - she is so tiny) but she did not go potty. Tater had water. 

Then we drove into town to pick up Wilson's cremains at the Emergency Vet. Tater whined as we pulled into the parking lot. Hubby ran inside the Vet to get the sack. It was .08 pound. A 30 pound dog is cremated into 12 ounces! OMG. The red URN that I ordered will be more than large enough. 

WILSON'S URN
 
 
We got onto the Interstate and then stopped in Littlefield to pick up a lottery ticket. Hubby ran inside to get one. He was hungry and they had no food in the deli. He wanted chicken on a stick and they had nothing. Not a good idea to be out of things when they have competition down the road!
 
We drove to Mesquite and got inside the house. I took both dogs outside and monitored Tater really closely so he would not hurt Riley. Riley went potty right away. 
 
We came inside where Riley had fun checking out the house. I went potty.
 
SAGE THE BLACK CAT CHECKS OUT RILEY
 
 
RILEY'S BAG THAT THE DOG SELLER SENT HOME
 
Hubby made the bed. It was already 7PM and he was tired from driving all day. He made himself some dinner. Leftover Hamburger Helper; I made some sausages.

Skylar sat with me and fell asleep. We watched two episodes of Castle and went to bed.

SATURDAY / MARCH 9 / JEEP CLUB TRAINING

SATURDAY
MARCH 9 2024
 
 
 

Up at 2AM and could not sleep. Hubby had gotten up earlier and sat on the sofa for a while. He said he had leg cramps. He was then back in bed and snoring. I got up to potty, stepped in cat litter from the box we put in the shower. I took my pillow and grabbed a blanket from the sofa, went to sleep in the front room. 

It was too cold after an hour so I went back in the bedroom. I dropped the blanket in the hallway.

I opened the blankets and Sage had been sleeping on my pillow area, so it was nice and warm. I snuggled up to Tater. 

I fell asleep until 6:00AM. Heard Hubby making dog breakfast for Tater in the kitchen. I got up and dressed. Went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself.

Then I went to make the bed, but there was black cat hair everywhere on the sheets, so Hubby and I changed the sheets. We put them in the laundry. Started washing laundry.
 
Hubby wanted to take a shower, but we could not disturb Sage if she wanted to go potty. So I cleaned out the litter completely in the bathroom shower. it was full. ALL the cats had gone in it. I also cleaned out some litter in the armoire cat box. 
 
Hubby got dressed and afterwards, he parked the FMF out front while we took the Jeep to get donuts at Flying J. We left Tater at home while I drove the Jeep. There was some odd family staring at the donuts with mouths agape. Some odd white kid with dredds was with them. We finally got in to choose donuts and Hubby went to pay. 

Hubby drove home. We saw some UTVs going out on the Mesa turning onto Hardy Way. Hubby waved at all of them.

We got home and Hubby watched TV for a few minutes. I vacuumed up all the cat litter in the house.

I sat down to do bookwork. Hubby left at 9:15AM to meet the Virgin Valley 4 Wheel Drive Club at Sun City to do some off road rescue training. They are then going out to the water tower to practice.

FRIDAY / MARCH 8 / GS NAILS / NEW HOIST AT SHOP

FRIDAY 
MARCH 8 2024







Up at 6AM. Heard Hubby in the kitchen making breakfast for Tater. I really miss Wilson. I think about him first thing as I wake up. I miss his little hot body pushing against me while I sleep.

I got dressed and made the bed. Went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself.

I made toast. Hubby had his burrito.

I did bookwork.

Hubby watched Automotive shows until he left at 8:30AM with Tater. I was left alone again.

I worked on bookwork all day. Started doing TAXES.
 
I watched the final season episode of ENDEAVOUR. It was sad to see it end after 12 years!

At 2:30PM, I went to get my nails done with Andy at GS Nails. I drove the Jeep. Parked on the side of the building as some van was parked in the handicapped parking spot. It was sunny, but not really too warm. 

Got done with my nails at 3:45PM and drove to the shop. At the shop, Hubby had no lights/electricity as they had popped a breaker and had forgotten which one was theirs on the front of the building. I got fresh water for Tater, greeted some customers and talked with them. The guys had installed the new shop lift. Crazy Chris had done another recovery in the desert and was hanging out. I left at 4:30PM.

I drove home and waited for Hubby. He got home at 6PM. 
 
We gave more pain pills to Tater. 

I watched the new season episodes of VERA.

He made chili and peanut butter sandwich for me. I had lots of heartburn and thought I was going to die. Took a Nitro pill. 

Went to bed at 9:30PM.

THURSDAY / MARCH 7 / KOKOPELLI MEETING PIZZA

THURSDAY
MARCH 7 2024 




Up at 5AM. Hubby was sitting on the sofa with his iPad. I went back to bed.

Tater crowded me out. Sage was making me sweat as she was laying on top of me.

I got up at 6:30AM and dressed. Made the bed.
 
Went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself. Made toast. 
 
Tried to sit down to eat, but Hubby had other things he needed to order online. I had to do Payroll.

Sent resale info to Harveys again as they are charging sales tax.

I had to post pictures on facebook for the business.

Hubby & Tater left for the shop in the Dually at 8:30AM. 

I did bookwork all day. 

Hubby called several times. I filled out application to accept credit from Customers. 

I put away clean dishes. I put away clean clothes. 
 
Hubby brought Tater home at 4PM. He said he was going to drop the trailer off at Jose's yard, but he did not have time.
 
Hubby met the Pizza Hut Delivery and Domino's Deliver in front of the College where the Kokopelli Meeting was being held. He said lots of people were wearing the RMOR shirts. They all liked the pizza. 
 
At 5PM, it started raining really hard. I brought the dog beds inside under the patio.
 
RAINING AND DARK CLOUDS
 
 
Hubby came home at 7PM after finally dropping off the trailer after the meeting. He had to talk with lots of customers.
 
We watched new episode of Resident Alien
 
Went to bed at 9:30. Both of us were exhausted.
