Drove to TA Travel Plaza and Hubby got diesel fuel. He went inside to get more Lottery tickets from the $33 he won in the past month. 

There was a Mormon mover white van next to us getting fuel. All of them dressed in white shirts/black pants. Mormon wear. Not going to get you into heaven, tho. LOL. The dad gave us a glare.

I warmed up the eggs I made from yesterday. I made toast. Hubby cleaned out the cardboard boxes in the garage and vacuumed the truck carpet.

I started washing our clothes. 

I picked up dog poo outside. About 20 loads. Threw BALL for Riley. Tater laid on his dog bed. PBJR was inside helping Daddy.

Hubby made breakfast for himself. He sat down to watch YouTube. 

I called Amazon to get a refund on the melted candy that arrived Friday. I had to take pictures to submit. Suban helped me and told me they would refund to a gift card balance.

MELTED CANDY

Hubby and I tried to work on the new roofline that the HOA wants 4/12 pitch. But we will have to give it to an architect to draw it. Need to get it done within 2 weeks.

We took the girls in the dog trailer and the motorcycles around the neighborhood. The first park was being watered, so we went to the 2nd park. Hubby put PBJR on a leash. I threw the BALL for Riley. It was hot, so we gave them water and loaded them again. We drove thru the new construction on the hill and then came home. Unloaded dogs. Put them in the house. Tater wanted out because he had stayed home. I put him in the back yard. I got ice water and steak pieces for PBJR.

Got into the hot tub at 11AM. Stayed in for about 30 minutes. It was on the cooler side. We put Riley in the hot tub with the inflatable dog mattress Hubby bought. 

Still doing laundry. 

Hubby warmed up pretzel bites that we got from Walmart groceries the other day. Dipped them in mustard. 

I got done logging the Amazon purchases he made this weekend for the business. Then I was trying to update my blog. 

Hubby sat down to watch YouTube. 

I joined him and we watched the rest of Bookish episode from last night. Then we watched Mannix. Hubby slept on the sofa for 2-3 hours. He snored.

I woke up at 5:15PM and we went in the Hot Tub for a while. Tried to play BeeGees music on Spotify, but it played one BeeGees song and then went off on a tangent. I could not stand it. I got out, let the girls outside for potty. Then Tater barked to go outside. 

Hubby got out of the Hot Tub a few minutes later. We got dressed. Put our wet towels in the washer. 

We made the bed with the clean bedspread and comforter.

When we loaded the dogs back into the truck, Hubby released the leash and it snapped back and hit my leg. I immediately had blood RUNNING & GUSHING DOWN MY RIGHT LEG. It had hit the bone.

PBJR was chewing on the new fastener for the dog gate and Hubby yelled at her. Tater was chewing on a deer antler in the back seat. PBJR was really upset when Hubby reprimanded her. Like he had beat her! Her beloved daddy raised his voice! When we got to the park, Hubby apologized to her and petted her.

Upon driving into the parking lot, we saw LOTS of bunnies. They were hopping everywhere. Surprised not to see them in the grass. So Hubby waited until thebunnies moved away. We had to put dogs on leashes because they saw them, too. Wanted to run after them. 

We finally let the dogs off the leashes after we got a ways from the parking lot. Riley ran after birds. It was quite cool today. I was almost freezing.

Riley barked at the trees, but no birds would fly out and play with her. 

We gave the dogs fresh water and loaded them in the car. We drove home.

We got back home and unloaded dogs. I let the dogs out in the back yard for potty. I put more ice in the dog bowls. I refilled clean water again. 

I put more dog food in bowls. 

I opened the front door for the cats.

I put sausage and egg bites in air fryer for my breakfast. I made oatmeal. 

I picked up dog poo. I then came inside and made more hot tea for myself.

Hubby went to the shop to meet customer and work with Oscar for a while. Nick never showed up. Supposedly, he had worked late last night with Pat and his Emergency Semi service. 

At 10:30AM, Hubby came back and took me to GS Nails to get my nails done by Ma. Andy just left for Vietnam. 

She did not put the powder with glue on my nails, ground them down very thin with motorized file and then painted them. They feel too fragile. Hubby sat in the corner waiting for me. 

NAILS DONE BY MA AT GS NAILS 11AM

Got done at Noon and Hubby drove us home. 

I got home and was exhausted. My body just shut down. I had to sleep on the sofa for HOURS. Could not go up to St George today. 

I slept the rest of the day. Everything hurt. 

I could not even eat. Felt horrible. 

I woke up from a nap and found that Hubby had put his empty plate on the sofa cushion. PBJR had put her head on it for a pillow.

We went to bed at 10:30PM.
