SUNDAY
MAY 3 2026
Awake early in the AM. I went potty and slept on the sofa. Had an overwhelming feeling of dread. Something bad is going to happen.
Riley came out at 3AM to drink water, then she went back to bed.
I slept again, but cats woke me up by eating kibble on the table quite loudly.
I climbed back into bed with Hubby and dogs then slept until 7AM. Dogs got up and Hubby let them out for potty.
I made the bed, then I went to take a shower.
Hubby fed cats shredded cheese and tuna. He gave the dogs fresh water.
Then Hubby took a shower. He also washed PBJR and Tater. They were still dirty from going down to the shop this week.
We washed all the towels and the large dog blanket on our bed.
We put harnesses on the dogs, loaded them into the car, and drove to Bunkerville to walk at the soccer park. Riley really ran everywhere. She was really happy. Got to chase several birds. PBJR was even walking better. She is losing weight and feeling better. Tater ran, too. We happened to see a dog running next to a motorcycle and got all the dogs loaded in the car quickly. The dogs had water in the car.
RILEY OUT THE WINDOW
We drove to Wendy's and got a chicken sandwich for me, breakfast potatoes, and a sausage egg & cheese biscuit for Hubby.
We drove home. I was not really hungry at home because I ate too many of the breakfast potatoes.
I made more hot water. We put cats in our bedroom. Put Rattler in the front room with water, food, and potty because Stuart was fighting with him.
We left Tater and PBJR at home while we took Riley in the white Jeep and drove the back way to Beaver Dam. On the way down the boulevard, Hubby accelerated too quickly and got a DEATH WOBBLE in the Jeep that he said he would fix this week. He has the parts at the shop. It was scary.
At the Beaver Dam Jam, Hubby looked for Eric, Eric's dad. We walked all over and finally found Eric down by the red food van. Eric could not find his dad. Finally found out that his dad HAD LEFT JUST MINUTES BEFORE WE GOT THERE.
Riley got petted by some nice kid that asked to pet her. He was a polite kid.
We walked past a huge kennel with Jim's dog Michael (Eric's brother) in it. He barked loudly at Riley. Some Bloodhound, Saint Bernard mix.
So Hubby hung out with Eric, got a beer. Hubby took off with Eric's friend that had a refrigerator go-kart. I hung out with Riley. It got hotter and I was sweating. My right knee was hurting badly. I do not do well in the heat with my Lupus.
HUBBY IN GO-KART REFRIGERATOR
Hubby got back and we had to leave. Jim's brother walked to our Jeep with us and Hubby gave him the gun that he needs to fix.
We left there, drove to the Maverik station so Hubby could buy lottery tickets. He came out with Drumsticks to eat. They were NOT good and tasted like plastic. We both threw ours out the window on the side of the road.
At home, I unloaded Riley.
I was almost collapsing from exhaustion, I put the chicken sandwich from Wendys in the microwave, made tea. I sat down on the sofa. Took a nap from 2 to 4PM.
Got up at 4PM and did bookwork.
Storm over the mountains and the mesa. It seemed to pass around us. No rain. Just dark clouds everywhere.
STORM OVER MOUNTAINS
At 6PM, We took the dogs to Bunkerville and walked them in the soccer park again. They had lots of fun. The gate was open again, so Hubby had to close it.
We gave the dogs water and I had picked up several dog poos, so I had to put those in the garbage can.
We drove home.
Unloaded dogs and Hubby sat down to watch YouTube videos.
Dogs were dog-tired and collapsed on the floor when we came inside the house.
DOG TIRED
I did some more bookwork. Hubby bought A LOT OF STUFF ON AMAZON FOR THE SHOP THIS WEEKEND. So I had to log all that into the bookwork.
