RILEY NAPPING LONG DOG ON THE SOFA WITH TATER

GAVE RILEY HER TREAT PUZZLES. GAVE TATER SOME TREATS.

WATCHED LOTS OF VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE ABOUT THE FLOODING IN TENNESSEE AND FLORIDA FROM THE RECENT HURRICANE HELENE. 

AT 8PM, TOOK THE DOGS FOR A WALK AT THE PIONEER CENTER. THE GRASS WAS WET, TATER THREW UP A COUPLE TIMES, THEY ROLLED IN THE GRASS.

WE CAME BACK HOME AT 9PM. LOTS OF SNOWBIRDS BACK BECAUSE HOMES ARE TOTALLY LIT UP INSIDE. SO MANY LIGHTS...

AT HOME, WE GAVE THE DOGS SOME TREATS. WATCHED A STUPID MOVIE CALLED THE MENU. IT WAS PRETTY MUCH AWFUL.

WENT TO THE KITCHEN TO MAKE LATTE FOR HUBBY, TEA & NANOGREENS FOR MYSELF.

HUBBY AND THE DOGS WERE UP AT 5AM. HUBBY HAD GIVEN THE DOGS THEIR BREAKFAST AT 6AM. 

HUBBY PUT THE COMFORTER IN THE WASHER AND WASHED IT. 

I PUT THE DIRTY CLOTHES IN THE WASHER, BUT COULD NOT WASH THEM UNTIL THE COMFORTER WAS DRY.

AT 9AM, WE LEFT THE DOGS AT HOME AND DROVE TO ENLIVEN INFUSION TO GET MY DIET SHOT. I PAID FOR A WHOLE MONTH OF SHOTS WITH KELLY. RODNEY CAME IN AND SAID HI. 

THEY WE DROVE TO THE $1 STORE. THEY DID NOT HAVE THE FALL GARLAND I WANTED.

WE THEN DROVE TO SMITH'S TO GET GROCERIES AND OUR DRUGS THAT RODNEY HAD CALLED IN TO THE PHARMACY. 

WE STOPPED AT THE SHOP AND PICKED UP THE JEEP. DROVE IT TO THE TIRE STORE. I FOLLOWED HUBBY IN THE FMF. 

PICKED HUBBY UP AT THE TIRE STORE AND WE DROVE HOME.

AT HOME, I DID BOOKWORK. HUBBY PUT THE WARM COMFORTER ON TATER WHO WAS SLEEPING ON THE SOFA, BUT HE WAS NOT INTERESTED. HE GOT UP AND WE HAD TO PUT HIM OUTSIDE.

I DID MORE PUMPKINS.

HUBBY TALKED WITH RALPH AT THE TIRE STORE; THE JEEP WAS READY TO PICK UP. HUBBY SAID WE WOULD BE THERE BEFORE 4PM. 

I SAT ON THE SOFA AND LOOKED AT MY PHONE. IT WAS ALREADY 3:45PM. 

WE TOOK THE DOGS IN THE FMF AND DROVE OUT TO THE TIRE STORE TO PICK UP THE JEEP. THEN I FOLLOWED HUBBY IN THE FMF AND PICKED HIM UP FROM THE SHOP. 

HUBBY GOT THE USPS MAIL OUT OF THE MAIL BOX. THE CHECK FROM ZURICH WAS FINALLY THERE. 

I DROVE TO THE CREDIT UNION AND IT TOOK FOREVER TO GET THE CHECK DEPOSITED. THEN SOMEBODY STARTED SMOKING WHILE IN LINE...

THE TEMPERATURE WAS 105 DEGREES OUTSIDE. I HAD TO ROLL UP THE WINDOWS AS WE WERE DYING FROM THE HEAT. TATER WAS PANTING. HAD TO GIVE DOGS SOME WATER TO COOL THEM OFF. 

FINALLY, AFTER 25 MINUTES OF WAITING IN LINE AT THE CREDIT UNION DRIVE-THRU, WE GOT THE CHECK DEPOSITED. I HAD SENT A LITTLE RED PUMPKIN IN TO THE TELLER; SHE THANKED ME.

WE LEFT THERE AND DROVE HOME.

AT HOME, I ALMOST FELL OVER TATER WHO STOPPED IN THE DOORWAY AND WOULD NOT MOVE. I HAD TO PEE REALLY BAD. 

I DID MORE BOOKWORK.
