MONDAY / JULY 21 / HOT HUMID RAIN / STEROID SHOTS IN HANDS AT DESERT PAIN

MONDAY

JULY 21 2025

I got up twice to let PBJR out the sliding glass door after all the other dogs were out. Hubby was with the dogs outside on the patio. 

Up at 6:30AM. I slept late because of 2 Prednisone, 3 Tylenol, 6 Aspirin, and a Marijuana Gummie that I had taken yesterday.

I made the bed. I went to the kitchen to make hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby, hot tea and Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby made breakfast dog grog and fed the dogs. I spoon-fed Riley because she has been picky about eating her food. PBJR came and sat with us after she had finished her own food. I gave her a couple small spoon bites.

Then we cleaned up the plates and napkins. Hubby got dressed. 

I wetted down my hair and put conditioner on it. 

I put dirty clothes in the washer and started the washing machine. 

I went outside to pick up dog poo. It was just spitting rain. I put the dog beds under the patio. 

Hubby watched YouTube TV. Hubby cleaned cat litter. 

Johnathan finally called and reported that he would not be coming to work for a while.

Hubby left at 8:30AM in the FMF. We all watched him from the front door.

I put away clean clothes. I put away clean dishes. I folded plastic bags into tiny triangles to fit better into the armoire drawer.

I let the dogs out several times.  I put the cat food into our bedroom so that I can leave later.

SUNDAY / JULY 20 / GS NAILS / WALMART/ MASSAGE

 SUNDAY

JULY 20 2025

Up at 6AM. Hubby had taken the dogs out for potty at 3AM and 5AM. 

I made the bed, got dressed. 

I went to the kitchen to make a hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby. Made hot tea and Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby made egg grog for the dog breakfast and fed them. 

Hubby got dressed. We took PBJR and Riley for a ride in the trailer on the motorbikes around the neighborhood. They really liked it. We drove to the new subdivision and back. My hands started hurting.

Then we took Tater. He yelled the whole time. Barked. We stopped to pick up golf balls at the end of our street.

Rode home, unloaded Tater. 

I put dirty laundry in the washer and started it. Made chicken/maple sausage and cheesy egg bites in the air-fryer. 

Sat down to eat when Andy from GS Nails called and wanted me to come down in 10 minutes. 

So we closed up the house and left the dogs at home. Put the cats with litter in our room and shut the doors.

Drove to GS Nails, Hubby dropped me off. I got my nails done. Hubby came to pick me up.

We drove to Walmart and I picked up a brace for my ankle. PBJR had slept on my left ankle last night and it feels sprained. I can barely walk on it. We got cucumbers, carrots, Milo's tea, cheese for our cats. 

We paid for groceries and loaded them in FMF. Drove home.

Hubby unloaded groceries. I gave nugget chicken to the dogs on the back patio.

We put away groceries. Hubby grilled hamburgers and chicken sausages. 

We ate lunch. It was Noon. 106 degrees F. Too hot here.

I had to take a nap because I had already taken Prednisone and 3 Tylenols for my pain. It was not going away.

I woke up at 2PM and had endo cramps. I had to take a hot bath and more aspirin so I shaved my legs, too. 

I dried off and dressed. Played BALL with Riley. Hubby re-filled the dog water, cat water, and ice for the dogs. 

We got ready to go for massage at 3:30PM. Closed up the house. Left the dogs at home. 

SATURDAY / JULY 19 / DOG BIKE TRAILER RIDES / HOT / TALK TO JASON M / DOMINOS CHICKEN /

SATURDAY

JULY 19 2025

FRIDAY / JULY 18 / NOT SO HOT / FEED RAVEN'S DOG & CATS / SMITHS / WASH CAR / ICE AT WALMART

FRIDAY

JULY 18 2025

I heard Hubby get up with the dogs earlier, but I was still so tired and slept longer. 

Up at 6AM when I heard the dogs barking. I got dressed and went to the kitchen. Made Hubby a hot cinnamon/honey latte. Made hot tea and Nanogreens for myself.

I fell asleep on the sofa again until 8:30AM.

I got up, folded my blanket that Hubby had covered me with. I went to get ready to take a shower and give baths to the dogs. I washed Tater first. He just walked into the shower. He is used to it by now. Then Peanut Butter Jelly Roll had to be pushed in the shower stall as she put on her brakes. Then finally came Riley who walked in on her own. She is such a good girl.

Hubby dried off all the dogs and let them do zoomies and play outside. Then I finished my shower, cleaned the shower from dog hair, wiped down the glass. 

I turned on the fans in the bathroom to clear the moisture. 

I got dressed.

Hubby sat down to watch YouTube videos.

I made cheese egg bites in the air fryer with some chicken/maple sausage.

I did my hair.

Hubby helped me make the bed. 

Hubby put his shoes on. We closed up the house. Left the dogs at home. Put the cats in our bedroom.

Drove the back way to Raven & Michelle's house to feed their dog, Jasmine and cats. Put out more water for them. R&M are supposed to be home this afternoon.

We drove to Smith's and went shopping. Saw Dana as we walked inside the doors. Talked to him. He is going with Shauna to Colorado for camping for 3 weeks.

Lots of people at Smith's. Reminder. Don't shop there in the mornings on weekdays. It used to be less people in the summer as all the snowbirds left, but it was CROWDED. Lots of people standing in the way, using handicap carts, blocking aisles. 

Finally got done shopping and checked out. The girl that was bagging our groceries gave us a warning about the sushi (that Hubby loves to buy) and told us that her manager was out for 3 days with stomach poisoning due to the sushi.

We bought such new weird drinks and tried them. I hated my vanilla. Too much sucralose flavor, Hubby liked his strawberry caffeinated drink.

Drove to Walmart to wash car. Some woman in front of us at the car wash found it impossible to get her credit card accepted, so she finally drove off. 

We washed our car with a wave of my phone and the APP on it.

Hubby dropped me off at the front of Walmart to buy ice. I ran inside and bought 3 bags of ice really quickly. Then I went outside and he had parked in the BACK ROW. He finally saw me but had to wait for several cars backing out of parking spaces. 

Finally got ice loaded in front seat and we drove home. 

At home we unloaded groceries. Let dogs outside for potty. I started the dryer again. 

Hubby baked chicken, potatoes, and the bacon wrapped tenderloin we bought at Smith's. 

I napped. My body is hurting so much. Everything. Even behind my eyeballs. My brain, shoulders, arms, inside my chest.

I took a couple Prednisone and it did not even touch the pain. It used to make me feel better.

I put away clean clothes. Hubby put away clean dishes. 

I took a hot bath that did not help.

I watched TV with Hubby for a while.

THURSDAY / JULY 17 / HOT / WINDY /

THURSDAY

JULY 17 2025

In the middle of the night, Sage had started eating the hair on the left side of my head. I pushed her away, but she slept beside Riley instead. 

I got up and put on a silk head tie. Then went potty and back to bed.

Up at 6AM. Hubby was up at 3AM with the dogs. He was having trouble falling asleep last night.

Hubby decided to stay up with the dogs and slept on the sofa.

I got up and dressed. Made the bed. 

Hubby was feeding dogs when I got into the kitchen. 

I made a hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby, hot tea & Nanogreens for myself.

I vacuumed the cat armoire. Hubby took the cat litter out.

Hubby left for the shop at 8:45AM in the FMF. Dogs and I waved him goodbye.

I did more bookwork.

Hubby called and said Rodney wanted to call in prescriptions and Testosterone for him, so I sent all the pictures of our Meds to Hubby.

I picked up dog poo outside, replaced dog poo bags, played BALL with Riley, and cleaned the top of the grille. I threw dog poo bags into the garbage can. Gary next door was working in his garage and had the side door open.

I went inside and put away all the clean dishes. I put more dirty dishes in the dishwasher. I put away clean clothes and put Lysol inside the washer.

I did more bookwork. 

I took the dogs out for potty several times. I play BALL with Riley. Took pictures of the storm over the mountains. Hope the animals up there are getting enough water. 

Hubby found Johnathan drunk and passed out in utv at shop. He thought he was dead. Woke him up and sent him home. 

Hubby got home at 4PM. He said Johnathan was drunk again today. Johnathan's mom called. Then his parole officer called to say he tested him and he will be going to jail on Monday as he failed his alcohol test. 

We went to feed Raven & Michelle's dog & cats at 7PM. Dark skies. 

We took dogs to Info Center and let them Wild Dog. Tater & Riley pooped. PBJR panted. 

Supposed to rain and get cool at 9PM. So we did NOT stop to wash the car even though it is dirty.

At home, we let the dogs out for potty. Hubby made the bed. I took painkillers for my hands. 

I started laundry.

WEDNESDAY / JULY 16 / DESERT PAIN CLINIC /FEED DOGS & CATS AT RAVENS

WEDNESDAY

JULY 16 2025

Slept all the way thru the night as I took a Benadryl. I was woken up once during the night with horrendous pain, but fell back to sleep.

I was up at 6AM. Hubby had been up since 5AM with the dogs. He said Tater is usually the one up first. 

Hubby was busy feeding the dogs. I got dressed. Felt like I had a hang-over. 

I made the bed. I went to the kitchen to make hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby, hot tea & Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby fed the dogs. I picked up bowls and Hubby packed the dishwasher. 

I took another nap on the sofa. PBJR slept on my feet. 

Hubby cleaned cat litter and unplugged my Jeep from the wall charger. 

Hubby left for the shop at 8:45AM with the FMF. 

I did bookwork and paid bills. 

I picked up dog poo outside. I vacuumed and cleaned the armoire. Cleaned out the tray and put the fan on the armoire to dry up the urine that the cat had exposed to the wood.

I closed up the house.

At 12:45PM, I drove the Jeep to Desert Pain Clinic and had a "consultation" They don't do procedures except on Mondays. They scheduled a prednisone injection for my hands on Monday. Woot. I get to be in pain for 5 more days!

I barely had strength to drive to Walmart and pick up some hair coloring. My underneath hair looks dark and weird with my curls. I picked up dog chicken and some "scrub mommys" which I hate. I like the Scrub Daddys. 

Drove home. Unloaded stuff. Put everything away. Let the dogs outside. Riley was screeching as usual.

I put the haircolor on my hair. L'Oreal 

Watched TV. My hands are still burning. Took 3 Ibuprofen. 

Hubby got home at 3:45PM. I made a hamburger with mayo & onions for dinner. 

I rinsed the conditioner out of my hair and dried it. I don't really like the lighter red it brought out, but oh well. My hair did not fall out. It had been burning my scalp when I colored it. 

I still don't quite like the color. My hair at my scalp is still darker than the hair on the ends. It looks odd. I really need an overall color. 

I am really exhausted and everything hurts. My hands are hurting very badly. I took some Ibuprofen but it does not seem to help.

At 7PM, the sun has gone down behind the mesa, so Hubby and I closed up the house and left the dogs at home - too hot to take them. 

We drove to Raven's house the back way. Lots of water running in the street at their house we had to drive thru. Inside, the dog food bowl was full of ANTS. It was so gross. I dumped them in the sink, but forgot their disposal is on the LEFT side as ours is on the RIGHT side. Hubby went to change the pee-pads. I cleaned out the cat vomit in their cat tower and cleaned out the cat bowl. Put more cat food in cat bowl and then put it in the tower. 

Hubby dug out the dog food and ants in the sink and put them in the disposal. He found the switch for the disposal on the wall. NOT under the sink like ours. 

Hubby stomped on ants on the floor. We put the dog food down again. 

We left and locked the door.

Drove to Walmart to get ICE. We also picked up 

At home we unloaded the car and I took the dogs out for potty. Riley was screeching, she was so happy to see us home. PBJR did a backwards dance as I walked inside the house. 

I took 2 Gabapentin to help my pain. It did not seem to work. So I took a 3rd Gabapentin. Still in pain. I also took my night-time hormone pill and it made me somewhat tired.

We went to bed at 10PM. Hubby had trouble falling asleep. 

TUESDAY / JULY 15 / HOT HOT HOT

TUESDAY

JULY 15 2025

I could not sleep. Hubby kept snoring for hours, Tater crowded me out of the bed because he was sleeping sideways. I got up and slept in the living room on the sofa for a while, but my hands were burning so I got up again and went to the front bedroom. Threw off all the cat beds and pillows.

I brought my own pillow from the sofa, brought the red blanket and slept on my back with my hands at my sides to make the pain go away. 

I finally fell asleep, but Hubby and the dogs were up at 5AM. Hubby came to bother me and wake me up. Do you need anything? Do you want a blanket? I just wanted to sleep.

I washed my hair. I blow-dried my hair. I steamed my hair. 

Hubby left for the shop at 8:40AM in the FMF. 

I walked out and brought the garbage cannister in and placed it behind the fence. I talked to Betty, the neighbor from across the street. She said that Stan had his surgery but is not recovering very well. She left to go get her nails done.

I put away clean laundry. I put away clean laundry. I made lunch. Another hamburger with onions.

I watched TV for a while.

I called Desert Pain Specialists and got an appointment for a steroid injection into my hands for neuropathy pain. 

Hubby's TRT came today. Whomever delivered it did NOT ring the doorbell and I found it by opening the front door. It was just sitting out there in the heat. 

I brought the package inside.

I let the dogs out for potty again.

Hubby got home at 3:45PM. I paid a bill from Whip It Flags and put the check in an envelope. 

We loaded the dogs and put them in the FMF. Riley's and PBJR's harnesses were still in the car from this weekend. 

We drove the back way to take care of Jasmine and the cats at Raven & Michelle's house. Did not see the cats. Jasmine tried to bite me. We change the water and food.

Then we took the dogs across the street to walk in the grass under the shade of trees. It was still too hot. 

We drove back home. Let the dogs out for potty. Tater collapsed on the floor because he was panting. PBJR was panting.

MONDAY / JULY 14 / HUBBY UP ALL NIGHT / OVERCAST / HOT / TIRED

MONDAY

JULY 14 2025

SUNDAY / JULY 13 / BOAT IN GUNLOCK RESERVOIR WITH RILEY & PBJR / MASSAGES

SUNDAY

JULY 13 2025

I was awake at 4:45AM. I went potty and then slept on the sofa. Hubby was up at 5AM with the dogs and let them out for potty.

I got up and folded my blanket, went to get dressed. Opened the sliding glass door-dogs were sleeping on dog beds, Hubby was sleeping on the patio chair. I asked him if he wanted to leave early and go take boat to Gunlock Reservoir. He said "give me 5 more minutes sleep". 

So I went to the bedroom and made the bed. Did my hair. 

Hubby came inside and made dog grog eggs for dog breakfast. He put out tuna for cats. 

I made a hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby, hot tea & Nanogreens for myself. I warmed up cheese egg bites and ate 1/2 of one. 

We got the dogs ready. Tater stayed home by himself. We took PBJR and Riley.

Left at 6AM Mesquite Nevada time and drove to I-15 and old Hwy 91. 

Stopped at Maverik in Littlefield to get Lottery tickets, Hubby picked up a breakfast pizza for himself and a soft stuffed breakfast roll with sausage, egg, and cheese. He also got ice. Expensive ice. $3.96/bag.

HUBBY AT MAVERIK

Arrived at 8AM Gunlock Utah time. Loaded boat into water. I stayed with PBJR & Riley at the boat while Hubby parked the FMF and trailer. 

Hubby came back and we got loaded into boat. I took off my shirt and jeans with just my bathing suit & life preserver - which really does not fit as well as our jackets that we had in Idaho. This one almost chokes my neck because it works its way up my shoulder no matter how tight I strap it.

PBJR ADVENTURE ON BOAT

PBJR AND RILEY RUNNING AROUND ON THE BEACH

We took the boat out after 1.5 hours of riding around really fast on the lake. 

Some asshole was not observing the no-wake zone and came in hot & fast. He caused lots of waves. Then he power-loaded his boat causing even more water disturbance. Our boat rocked against the dock.

Hubby took Riley and went to get the FMF with trailer. I got PBJR out of the boat and pulled it around to load it. 

Helped Hubby load the boat, then we pulled around to the parking lot (motorbikes were in the no-parking zone) and tied everything down.

We left and drove home. At home by 11:30AM. Tater was happy to see us home. He had taken a nap. Let all the dogs out for potty.

Hubby prepped hamburgers to put on the grille after our massages tonight. PBJR and Tater stayed in the kitchen helping.

We watched YouTube videos on TV. Mostly forest fire burning in Prineville where our property is located, RV videos, automotive videos. 

I was really tired and took a nap for 30 minutes before we left for massage. 

I got up at 2:30PM and packed our bag, started getting the house closed up. Put the cat stuff in our room so we got Robert from the front bedroom and Rattler from under our bed and put them in our bedroom. 

Hubby took a marijuana gummy to relax. I did not. The gummies make me feel weird.

We left the dogs at home and went out to the FMF which still had the boat attached in the front of the house. We both smelled gasoline. It was SO HOT OUT that the gasoline had vented from the boat. Hubby opened the gas tank and let out some air. I went to get the shop keys so we could drop it off and store it inside at the shop instead outside in the heat & sun.

We drove to the shop and dropped off the boat. Had to squeeze it in front of the Dually.

Then we drove to Casablanca from the shop and parked in the back. 

Walked inside and there were quite a few people there. We got our robes, but they had gotten new AWFUL robes. Grey fur on them. It was SO HOT and these just made us sweat more. They also don't fit very well and I had to request a bigger robe. 

I saw a girl in the changing rooms that had beautiful long braids and I complimented her on them. Black hair with yellow ends. So pretty. 

I met Hubby in the relaxation room. Tried to cross my legs and the robe gaped open at my crotch. STILL NOT FITTING CORRECTLY. I HATE THESE NEW ROBES. 

SATURDAY / JULY 12 / JACK IN THE BOX / PEDICURES / BOAT / CLEAN FLOORS

JULY 12 2025

SATURDAY

I was awake at 4:45AM. I went potty and then slept on the sofa. Hubby was up at 5AM with the dogs and let them out for potty.

I got up and folded my blanket, went to get dressed. 

Hubby vacuumed, I steam cleaned all the floors in the house. Then I collapsed on the sofa and could not move. 

Hubby went to the mailbox to pick up the USPS delivered Stringberry cell phone case that had arrived. 

We watched the new season of Resident Alien.

We watched the next couple episodes of Poker Face.

FRIDAY / JULY 11 / HUBBY BLOOD DRAW IN ST GEORGE / MEDUSA'S PIERCINGS / ST GEORGE MED SPA / ARBYS

JULY 10 2025 

FRIDAY

I could not sleep very well last night. I had intense anxiety. I had Hubby come in and talk to me before we fell asleep last night. 

I got up at 2AM, went potty, and slept on the sofa. 

At 4:45AM, I got up and went potty again. The dogs got up and I let them outside. Then I got my phone, took pictures of the beautiful sunrise. 

FRIDAY MORNING 5AM SUNRISE

Hubby came out on the patio at 5:45AM. I wanted to let him sleep until 6:30AM, but he said he was awake. 

Hubby started making dog breakfast grog eggs. I gave tuna to the cats and Riley.

I made a hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby, hot tea & Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby forgot he was not supposed to drink as he is getting his blood draw in St George this morning.

I got stuff organized in a bag, but forgot my pictures for doing my piercings. I did not realize this until I got to Medusa's. I put cheese, jerky, hair clip, lip gloss, billfold in the go-bag.  

Hubby put collars & harnesses on dogs. He took them out to the car. 

Tater's tail hit Hubby in his left eye. Hubby said he felt like passing out. It looks bruised. He could not take aspirin because he has to get his blood drawn.

So we drove to St George on the I-15. Not bad traffic. Made it pretty good time. 

Hubby got his blood work done at St George Labcorp. I waited in the FMF with the dogs. 

We drove to the St George Convention Center to walk the dogs in the grass (in the shade of the trees).

PBJR AND RILEY WALK IN GRASS AT ST GEORGE CONVENTION CENTER

TATER RESTS IN GRASS AT ST GEORGE CONVENTION CENTER

We drove to Beans & Brews. Hubby got an iced creme de brulee latte. I got an iced green tea with honey.

Hubby ate his burrito and drank BOTH lattes. 

We stopped and did the drive-thru at Arby's. I got two Chicken cordon bleu sandwiches. Hubby got 2 Arby sandwiches, one for the dogs. He got wedge potato cakes and I got curly fries. The girl handed us a brochure for signing up to points online. 

He drove me to St George Med Spa, but my appointment was for 2PM, I was supposed to be at Medusa's getting my piercings. 

HUBBY GOT CRAMPS IN HIS BUTTHOLE. HE WAS SCREAMING IN THE CAR. 

So Hubby drove me over there. He parked in the front PARALLEL PARKED! and waited with the dogs in the A/C car. 

I was in Medusa's for about 45 minutes. Ally replaced my earrings on the right side with hoops. Then she gave me another forward Helix on my right ear to match my other two. 

She gave me an Inner Conch on my left ear and another forward Helix on my left ear. I bled just a little, but it stopped. 

I paid and gave her a tip. I was about to leave when I realized that she had not given me my old earrings. I returned and she had accidentally thrown them away with everything else. 

So we then got in the FMF and drove to Sandtown Park. We walked the dogs in the grass. Hubby used the potty. PBJR waited outside the door for Hubby. Riley chased birds. Gave the two Brawler twins a LOT OF WATER. 

Some people parked right next to us. We loaded the dogs hurriedly as they had a dog in their car. Instead of getting the dog out, the woman used the restroom, the man sat on the sidewalk-smoking a cigarette. They left the dog in the hot car with the windows rolled up and just one window cracked for air. Idiots. Fucking stupid people.

We parked in the shade at the other side of the park. 

At 1:55PM, Hubby drove me to St George Med Spa where I checked in and got my Laser treatment with Sarah. They had gotten a new machine. This one really hurt me in a couple spots. 

We finished at 2:45PM. I paid and tipped Sarah.

Jumped in the car with Hubby and we drove BACK to Beans & Brews for another drink for Hubby. This time he got a Granita creme brulee. 

We left town and drove to the Maverik in Beaver where Hubby got lottery tickets. 

PBJR WITH HEAD OUT OF CAR

PBJR NAPPING ON DOG BED DRIVING BACK TO MESQUITE

Then we drove to Mesquite. Hubby drove to Smith's. I stayed in the car with the dogs while he got Sushi, potato buns, honey. 

RILEY RELAXING IN BACK SEAT OF FMF

We drove home, I unloaded the dogs and let them out for potty. Tater was exhausted. He collapsed on the floor. 

I took off the dog collars. Helped Hubby put away groceries. I put laundry in dryer. 

I vacuumed cat litter from the armoire. I helped put away clean laundry.

Hubby watched YouTube videos. 

We sent a message on Facebook Marketplace for a guy in California that has a shortbed F150 that Hubby wanted to buy.

I was exhausted. 

We watched some shows on TV. Another episode of Nautilus. 

We went to bed at 10:30PM.

I got up and put out tuna for dogs. Made hot cinnamon/honey latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself.

I also made an omelette. A "picture-perfect" omelette according to Hubby.

PERFECT OMELETTE

I woke Hubby up at 6:30AM and the dogs all licked & kissed him. I put out a bath mat and started the shower for him. He took a shower. 

I started making egg dog grog for the dogs' breakfast. 

I washed my hair and put the new conditioner in it that I purchased from ColorWow - Dream Coat for Curly Hair. My curls came out pretty good overall with definite texture. I really like it and will continue to use it.

You can still see on my right side where the cat ate 1/2 of my hair. It looks awful.

Hubby warmed up egg bites for me in the air-fryer while he ate my omelette. 

Hubby watched YouTube videos on the TV. 

Hubby cleaned cat litter in the armoire. Sage had peed down the side of the litter box and onto the tray - NOT on the wood of the armoire. Hubby had to clean out the tray. Yuck.

I picked up dog poo outside. I watered the plants outside while getting cooler water out of the hose for the dog water. 

Hubby left at 8:30AM for the shop in the FMF. 

Hubby got back to the house at 9AM. He had lost his phone. I called his phone # and it rang. It was under the sofa, between the cushions.

Hubby left again.

I watched TV. Let the dog outside again and sat with them. PBJR gets too hot and has to come in within 10 minutes.

I put away clean dishes. I put away clean clothes.

I watched TV. Played BALL with Riley. Let dogs out for potty.

Hubby got home at 3:30PM. 

We watched TV. I played BALL with Riley again.

Went to bed at 10:30PM.

WEDNESDAY / JULY 9 / MORE SUN AND HOT

Could not sleep in the night. Too much pain. Lots of neuropathy hand pain - pins, needles, burning. At Midnight, I got up and took a Prednisone. Still could not sleep. At 1AM, I was up to take a hot bath and aspirin as I had endo cramps. 

I took a hot bath and soaked for 45 minutes. Still, the pain in my hands would not go away. 

I got out of the bath at 2AM and slept on the sofa. 

Hubby got up with dogs at 5AM and I went to the bed. Hubby sat on the sofa with the dogs. 

Riley kept coming into the bedroom to wake me up. Jumping on the bed.

I got up at 6AM and made the bed. Got dressed.

I picked up 11 loads of dog poo. Hubby cleaned the cat litter. 

Hubby left for the shop at 8:45AM in the FMF. 

After Hubby left, I put out the 4 hamburgers and seasoned them with Montreal Steak Salt. 

USPS dropped off boxes of cat ramps that I ordered from Amazon. Fun things for cats to play with. 

I put laundry in washer and then when it was clean, I put it in the dryer. 

I ordered some more hair care products from ColorWow. Shampoo, Clarifying conditioner.

I warmed up a hamburger with onions for myself.

I am already exhausted. Took some iron and vitamin C.

Hubby got home at 4:00PM. He was hot. Made himself lunch. He had stopped at Walmart to get more ice, hamburger patties & buns.  

Fed Ex delivered Costco orders. 

Hubby helped me put away things that were delivered from Costco by FedEx. 

Hubby made hamburgers on the grille.

Sat down and watched TV.

I did bookwork. 

Hubby fell asleep on the sofa. 

We went to bed at 10PM.
