Hubby left at 8:40AM in the Dually. Tater stayed home. 

 

I ordered aluminum braces on Amazon for Tater's leg.

Vacuum, Steam Clean, Clean counters. Put away clean dishes. Load more dishes. 

Put away clean clothes. Load more clothes. Wash comforter as there was more anal leakage from Tater on it. 

Hubby called for code on Barnes 4WD.

I did bookwork.

At 2:30PM, I left the dogs at home and went to get my nails done at GS Nails with Andy.

Afterwards, Hubby called and I went to the shop. Betsy & Dennis the Menace were at the shop. We talked to them for 30 minutes.

Then we locked up the shop. Denis was having problems with his seatbelt, so we went over to help him with it. They drove away.

We drove to the Post Office in my Jeep and mailed the IRS tax documents. The USPS guy was bitching because they were closing in 5 minutes and he we got there about 7 minutes before they closed. He helped us do our Return receipt and then we left. Hubby gave him a $30 tip when he paid. 

We drove to Walmart and washed the Jeep. We drove home.

I ordered some cheese bread & chicken for the both of us from Dominos. It was not good. Hubby and I were arguing over the tip when the guy delivered-Hubby wanted to give him $5 I told him to give him $10 as $5 was too cheap.

Riley pooped on the rug in the dining room and we had to clean it up. It was runny. What a stinky mess. Had to find a dustpan to pick it up. Hubby opened all the doors because of the smell. There is still a brown stain there even though I used Mr Clean and hydrogen peroxide to clean it up. I will have to call the cleaners to clean the carpet & rugs as it is Spring.

We rented and watched Singing In The Rain and The Absent Minded Professor.

Went to bed at 11PM as Hubby had been snoring on the sofa since 10PM.

Hubby was up at 3:30AM with Riley. He kept saying he had to get his pants on; he went to the bathroom so I picked up Riley from the bathroom and put her outside. Then Hubby STILL had to get pants on; then he went outside with Riley.

 

I went back to bed.

IN THE MEANTIME

Hubby got up with Riley & Tater at 5AM. He had explosive diarrhea while he was standing on the patio - it just poured down his legs. So he had to get the dogs inside, rush to the front bathroom where feces fell along the hallway, and get to the toilet where more diarrhea came out. Then he had to clean it all up so the dogs would not get into it. He had to take a shower, put the dog food/water and cat litter boxes out until he was finished. Riley was barking the whole time at him in the shower and she even stepped into the shower with him!

I was dead asleep an

 

Hubby told me the story of his explosive diarrhea and he said it was probably from the Jack-In-The-Box he ate last night. I told him to report it as food poisoning. 

 

We cleaned up the dog food/water in the bathroom where Tater had eaten all Riley's puppy food.  Then Hubby cleaned up the cat litter. I had to vacuum the shower. Then I steam cleaned everything.

I got dressed and went out to the kitchen to make a latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for me.  

 

I picked up dog poo outside. Had to refresh the dog water several times. 

 

Then I packed up my carrots that I finished making into plastic ziploc bags. I made a list and Hubby locked the doors after letting the dogs out to potty. We left the dogs at home. 

Delivered the carrots to Dawn, Nancy, Chris, LeAnne, Amy, Judy, Joe's wife, Kerry, Sharon C, and Colleen H. 

 

Drove to see the new house on the hill in the Falcon Ridge subdivision. Drove to see if the new mexican restaurant is open, but it was closed. Abuelita's. 

Drove to Smith's and got groceries on sale with coupons. Last day of the sale.

Drove home. At home, I was exhausted. I let the dogs out for potty, picked up more poo. Did laundry. Hubby brought in the groceries and made food.

I did my blog

SATURDAY / MARCH 30 / WALMART / TSC

SATURDAY

MARCH 30 2024

 

 

 

Hubby was up at 4AM and sat on the sofa. He let the dogs out at 5AM. I slept in until 8:30AM. Sage came to wake me up. She slept with me for a while.

I dressed and made the bed. 

I went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/ Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby had to answer many phone calls this morning from customers. Then had to talk to Mark for quite a while. 

Finally took the dogs with us in the FMF (that is falling apart and Hubby refuses to fix anything). 

Drove to UPS Store, but they had no Notary on staff (with a sign on the door). Then drove to Checks In The Mail across from Ace Hardware but they had no Notary (even though they advertise it on their front door sign) They gave Hubby a business card of somebody that does it out of their home, but there was no answer when we called.

Drove to Walmart where Hubby went to the Credit Union and got it done free! They had a notary on staff! Then he found me. I had to get mascara (some old biddy in the aisle blocking everything, I had to circle around several times) get rope for my carrots crafts, I suggested to Hubby when he found me that he should get Easter candy for the Credit Union girls because they helped him, but the Easter candy was really picked over. Hubby found some chocolates (and some old biddy had to stop her cart in front of him instead of going around him while he picked up the candy-fucking stupid old people).

Finally got in check out lane, but all the check outs were full. Had to wait. I took the keys to go out to the car as we had left the dogs out with the windows rolled down. Even though it was a really cool day, they were OK. I saw Jose (Walmart employee) on the way out and gave him a hug!

Hubby got done and out to the car, we drove to Mesquite Business Center to drop off carrots for Suzie. Of course, Hubby had to waste time talking to Pat. 

We finally left there and stopped at Tractor Supply to get puppy wet/dry food for Riley. She is getting dandruff and scratches at herself constantly. 

 

Got home and I worked on making more carrots. Hubby sat down for a while and watched TV. 

 

He went out and put new screws in the trailer. 

 

At 5PM, Hubby panicked and I had to make Bill of Sale for him. He forgot until the last minute.

 

Then he left with the Dually, trailer and Ranchero. Drove to the shop to meet the buyer. 

 

But the buyer took it for a test drive and did not want to buy it. After driving from Minnesota. OMG. What a fucking asshole. Hubby was upset. Mad. Incensed. He was pissed.

 

Riley did not do so well today. She peed and pooped in the house again. Just not quite getting it.

 

Hubby took the trailer to Jose's yard and left it there. He stopped on the way home at Jack-In-The-Box to get some stupid new hamburger. 

 

He ate his gross fast food dinner when he got home.

 

We watched TV. Went to bed at 10:30PM 

Riley was restless during the night but went back to sleep.

 

FRIDAY / MARCH 29 /TIRE STORE / WALMART / TSC

Up at 4:42AM when Riley started making noises in her kennel. Hubby took her outside with Tater. I went potty. Then I got dressed.

I made the bed. 

I went out to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself.

 

We let Riley out several times for potty. She was a good girl who pooped & peed outside.

 

Hubby sat down to watch Automotive shows for a while.

 

I did bookwork.

 

 

Had to take Hubby out to Tire Store with the FMF (mirror falling off) and he picked up a customer's white truck and then we had to deliver it on the other wise of Mesquite behind Smith's. Hubby lost me because he was speeding as usual.

Finally dropped off truck.

THURSDAY / MARCH 28 / RUN PAYROLL / WALMART / RILEY'S VACCINES

THURSDAY

MARCH 28 2024

 

 

 

 

I was up at 4AM; could not sleep. Sweat was pouring off me. I went to the front room to sleep, covered by a think comforter. Robert slept on my feet, but moved off after 15 minutes.

At 5AM, Hubby got up to let Riley out for potty. Then I got up and took a hot bath as I was freezing. 

I got dressed. Helped make the bed. 

Hubby made breakfast for Tater, rice & chicken again to keep his tummy calm. Tater is pooping hard poops now. 

I let Riley out again and cleaned up the poop in the yard.

I went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself.

We watched an episode of Animal Control and the newest Resident Alien. 

 

Then we left the dogs at home and went to Walmart to get milk, rope for carrots, coffee pods, cat litter. 

 

It was disgusting as usual at Walmart. The manager does not manage anything; no carts cleaned in the cart area, no shopping baskets, garbage and dirt in the parking lot. Too many stockers putting stock out and getting in the way of shoppers. 

 

Was checked out by Karen who was a REAL Karen. She was whiny about everything. We finally got out of there and went home. 

At home, Hubby brought groceries inside and I put groceries away. I put clean laundry in dryer. 

Hubby was panicking about getting his Rough Country air-bags to deploy on his Dually. So he was trying to down-load the QR app, but the i-Phone had TURNED OFF THE QR CODE SCANNER, so I had to research that, sit thru commercials on YouTube to just figure out how to do it. FRUSTRATED!

Hubby left for the shop at 8:30AM. 

I did bookwork. I did payroll. I ordered the Free Dominos Pizza for the guys today.

At 11AM, I ordered pizzas from Dominos for the guys at the shop and used our "free pizza" coupon. 

I watched TV and fell asleep on the sofa while sitting up. The dogs slept.

I got Riley ready for her Vet appointment. I put out the keys for the FMF. 

Hubby got home. We took the car and drove to the Vet. I took Riley inside and the Vet assistant took her back and gave her vaccines & her bordetella vaccine. 

I watched some people drop off their 16 year old dog, Hercules for euthanasia. They refused to go back with the dog to say goodbye to him. The man told them, "don't touch him because he has cancer bumps everywhere, he can walk really far, he can't climb over 2 inches."  Like the Vet assistants were taking him elsewhere and going to be doing things with the dog??? It was really sad as the dog did not want to go with the Vet assistants into the back, the woman just kept saying "I can't do this." The dog threw a look over his shoulder to the people. It was so sad, I started crying. The people ran out the front door. I hate assholes like this. The dog will look for its owners of 16 fucking years and not be able to see or hear them in his last moments. 

I got Riley back, took her out to the car, Tater was barking. Then I went back inside and paid. The receptionist said she would love to steal my puppy.

We drove home. 

At home, I took Riley down to see Carmen & Dave, neighbors. Hubby parked the car at the house and let Tater out who immediately ran down the street. 

Had to wrangle Tater up to the house.

I went inside and stared making turkey bacon. I was tired. 

I took a nap on the sofa. 

When I woke up, I took a hot bath. Then I did bookwork. 

Found titles for the Ranchero and Trailer for Hubby.

Went to bed at 9PM.

RILEY ON HER DOG BED IN BACK YARD

 

 

At 6:30,  I got changed, wore tall sandals. We left the dogs at home and drove to Casablanca Katherine's for dinner. After giving the FMF to the Valet, we walked thru the cigarette stinky casino, stopped to see the band playing. We got seated at the restaurant in the very back. Hubby said his seat was broken down. Reuben was our waiter. He hugged us.

We ordered Spinach salad for Hubby, and French Onion soup for me. 

Then we got appetizers instead of entrees. I ordered shrimp cocktail and bacon wrapped scallops. Hubby ordered crab cakes.

My French onion soup was so hot, it burnt my mouth. I had to wait to eat it. 

Hubby's order of Crab cakes were burnt and did not taste good he said. My shrimp were soaked in a SPICY HOT cocktail sauce which almost choked me. The scallops were also too burnt. 

We got done after talking with Reuben and went home. Decided against shopping at Walmart because we had been gone 2.5 hours from the dogs. 

Let the dogs out when we got home.

Both of us did not feel well from eating the food. Never again. 

Went to bed after watching Will Trent new episode. IT WAS NOT A GOOD EPISODE. QUALITY OF THE SHOW HAS GONE DONE DRASTICALLY.

 

TUESDAY / MARCH 26 / HUBBY SCREAMED AT ME /CLEANING

Up at 5AM with the puppy to let her out. We decided to stay up anyway. Had to turn the heat on as it was very cold in the house.

I got dressed and made the bed. Hubby made chicken & rice for Tater's breakfast. 

I made latte for Hubby and tea/Nanogreens for myself.

I was very upset with Hubby and his screaming at me set off a Lupus Flare up and I was hurting for the rest of the day.

 

I let the dogs in and out all day. Played with Riley. 

 

RILEY SMILING ON MY LAP

 

 

I sat on the sofa and watched TV, taking too much Tylenol because I hurt too badly.

 

Hubby tried to schedule a massage for me to make up for yelling at me, but I said I did not want to go anywhere. 

 

Hubby got home at 4PM and let the dogs out. I made him put away dishes and laundry.

 

Watched TV. 

 

I went to bed at 9:30PM.
