THURSDAY / DEC 18 / EXHAUSTED /TATER AT HOME /

THURSDAY

DECEMBER 18 2025

At 4AM, I went to the sofa to sleep. It was freezing in the house.

I was up at 5:30AM to potty because Kokopelli passed the house with a loud, lawnmower, lights on the front & back-that reflected on all the house windows. 

Then back to sleep on the sofa.

At 6AM, Hubby got up and let dogs outside. He started to make them breakfast. I turned on the fireplace and the Xmas tree lights.

Riley jumped on the sofa with me for a few seconds.

I was up at 6:00AM. I got dressed and made the bed.

I picked up dog poo.

Hubby made DOG GROG egg breakfast for the dogs and fed them. He gave cheese & tuna to the cats. 

I made a hot eggnog latte for Hubby, a hot latte, hot tea, and Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby got dressed. 

Hubby put laundry in the washer but did not start it.

Hubby cleaned the cat litter. 

Hubby left at 8:30AM. He left Tater at home.

Dogs went outside. Dogs came inside. Dogs went outside. Dogs came inside.

I did bookwork.

I am OVERWHELMINGLY EXHAUSTED TODAY.

Hubby got home at 3:30PM. He had forgotten cash to pay a subcontractor, so he got cash and returned to the shop. 

Hubby was back home again at 4:30PM. 

I was so tired and exhausted. I could not sleep. 

Hubby went down to get the mail. He painted more shadowboxes in the garage. Dogs went out to help him. 

I finished up the snowmen that I was working on yesterday. 

Dogs went outside for a while. 

I finally was able to take a short 30 minute nap at 5PM. 

We watched TV. 

Hubby made dinner for himself. Then he had cereal with milk. I fed the last of the cereal to PBJR. 

We wrapped up returns for Amazon. 

Hubby put away clean clothes. He threw more clean clothes in the dryer.

I steam cleaned the floor in the kitchen and dining room. Filthy. 

RILEY & STUART WITH HUBBY ON SOFA

I did some brief bookwork. 

I am exhausted again.

We watched TV. Went to bed at 10PM. Hubby had been snoring on the sofa.
