I went to do bookwork. I put wet clean clothes in dryer. 

I loaded and started the dishwasher. 

The Sun City maintenance person came by to replace our sign at the bottom of the hill for our street. About time. It has faded so badly that nobody could read it. 

Then I went back to doing bookwork.

I went potty. Riley was BARKING at the front door about something. I finished going potty, then went to the door. There was a guy out there park with a truck & work trailer. He said Jose was here to bid the rock. I met Jose and escorted him to the back yard. 

They left and I went back to doing bookwork.

Put harnesses on dogs and loaded them into the FMF. Drove to Info Center and walked them. PBJR was out of breath and tired by the time we got back to the car. Gave dogs fresh water. Loaded them into car. 

Drove to the UPS Store to mail a package for customer, Hubby forgot to take in his Amazon returns. 

We drove to America First CU where Hubby went to cash a check and deposit customer checks. 

We drove out to the park in Bunkerville. Walked dogs around the park. Riley ran around, barking at birds. I picked up other people's dog poop. PBJR munched on fresh grass. 

We gave dogs fresh water and loaded them into car. 

Saw an ambulance on our drive back to town. It had pulled over mid-point to Bunkerville on the side of the road beside the walk/bike path. 

Stopped at the shop to see if there were packages, customer happened to pull in the parking lot and Hubby had to talk with him. 

(tires had fallen into the parking lot)

Finally left there and drove to Wendy's because I was hungry. I got all shaky and weak. 

We parked at the gas pump on the far left by Wendy's. Hubby got fuel. $75. OMG. Fucking regime fools. Then Hubby walked into Wendy's to order burgers & chicken nuggets for dogs, a Asiago chicken sandwich with fries for me.

We drove home. At home, we rested for a while. Watched TV.  I made more hot tea.

At 2:30PM, we loaded the dogs into the FMF again after putting on their harnesses. 

Hubby drove me to my 3PM appointment at GS Nails. Andy did my nails. Ma was there and was doing pedicures & manicures on 2 women. Then Andy had walk-ins that wanted manicures and pedicures. He is busy. 

GS NAILS


I got done at 4PM and Hubby came to pick me up when I called. He had been at the shop and gone to UPS Store to drop off his Amazon returns. 

We drove to Bunkerville to walk dogs again. There was a woman there walking her dogs off-leash. We had to wait for her to leave. 

Let the dogs out of the car and Riley ran to bark at birds. 

We walked around and the dogs laid down in the fresh grass. 

We gave them fresh water and then loaded them in the car. 

Drove to Scenic (Hubby missed the back side turn and drove all the way around Mesquite again) and picked up lottery tickets. Hubby bought ice cream for us. I got Cookies-N-Cream on a plain cone. He got Black Cherry on a waffle cone. 

We drove back home. 

At home, let the dogs out for potty. Hubby sat down to watch YouTube on TV. I made hot tea. Hubby tried to give me pasta that I made yesterday, but he had put PEPPER on it and I had to put it down the drain. I hate pepper. 

Hubby got a phone call from his employee, Nick who had borrowed the small trailer to go to St George and get his girlfriend a topper for her truck. They dropped off the trailer here at our house and hooked it up to our FMF in the street.

Hubby and I both fell asleep on the sofas. I got up at 9PM and went to bed.

I slept on the sofa. 

Hubby went back to bed after he went potty. 

I slept on the sofa. In lots of pain. I heard Hubby get up and feed the dogs egg breakfast and give tuna & shredded cheese to the cats. 

I finally got up at 7:45AM. I dressed. 

I went to the kitchen to make a hot cinnamon/honey/vanilla latte for Hubby. He said it was too sweet and I had to add more espresso shot and hot milk. I made hot tea and Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby put away clean clothes. 

Hubby burnt his breakfast on the stove top and we had to turn on the fans, I turned on the A/C higher. It finally cleared out and he made himself a sausage and egg english muffin in the air-fryer.

I did bookwork. Paid credit card bills. Hubby left at 8:30AM in the FMF. I helped him load the garbage from the side of the house that was too large to put in our garbage cannister. 

I did bookwork after Hubby left until NOON. I am so exhausted and cannot think. 

The USPS lady came and brought my hand steamer that I ordered from Amazon. Also a necklace that I purchased thru 

I played BALL with Riley outside. 

PBJR has to go visit the Vet at 4:30PM. She has to have her anal glands expressed.

Hubby got home at 4PM. Put harnesses on dogs and loaded them into FMF. Drove to the Vet and Hubby took the dog inside. I waited in the car with the other dogs. 

It only took about 20 minutes before they were done. 

We took the dogs to the Info Center to walk them. Riley barked at birds and ran around. Walked all the way around on the sidewalks with PBJR. 

Gave dogs water. Drove home.

At home, I got out to get the mail at the boxes. Just junk mail.

Unloaded dogs. All of them collapsed on the cool floor. The A/C was already turned on. 

Hubby made chicken on the grille. He made Uncle Ben's wild & long grain rice. I had to eat something or pass out. I got REALLY SHAKY.

Could not sleep last night after the dogs & Hubby went to bed at 10PM. 

I watched TV until movie was done, then I took a hot bath. By 1PM, I went to bed.

Up at 6AM when I heard Hubby making breakfast for dogs. I helped Hubby make the bed. Riley jumped on the bed. Then Riley played with PBJR on the carpet in our bedroom.

Hubby had already fed the dogs eggs & kibble. He had given tuna & shredded cheese to the cats. 

I made a hot cinnamon/vanilla/honey latte for Hubby. I accidentally dumped a whole bunch of cinnamon when I opened the wrong pouring section. I had to start over again. 

I made hot tea & Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby gave me a diet shot. He could not find the needles and I had to look for them. They were in the drawer, right in front of him.

Hubby was already dressed this morning. He had forgotten to get dressed yesterday morning until he was getting ready to leave. 

Hubby put dirty clothes in washer. I started washer after he left. 

I went outside and picked up dog poo. I noticed that our neighbors had put out a camera under the eaves, directed at our yard. Very odd. Why are they spying on us?

Hubby & PBJR left at 8:30AM. PBJR was so excited, she RAN out to the FMF with her tail wagging.

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

I picked up the crap from the trees on the front entryway. Stuart came in the house at the front door. I vacuumed all the crap up. I cleaned up the front with a Clorox wipe. Then I sprayed Lysol on the door. I cleaned up the cat litter in the armoire and vacuumed it.

There was an Easter egg search at the park next door. It was cute to see lots of little kids everywhere. Lots of noise. 


DOGS AT PARK IN BUNKERVILLE

We gave the dogs some water after their walk. Then we loaded them back into the FMF and returned home.

I washed and conditioned my hair. Put it in a plastic baggie.

Talked to our next door neighbor, Amy for a while. They are leaving in 2 weeks to return up north to Minneapolis for the summer. 

She texted me some hair color that she uses from Walmart. 

I rinsed my hair. Left it to air dry.

Hubby called at 11:45AM and said they were done with the club meeting. 

Hubby picked up a pizza from the Travel Center. He got burgers for the dogs at Wendys. 

The pizza was ok. Not great, but much cheaper than Dominos.

We put harnesses on the dogs and loaded the dogs into the FMF and drove to Bunkerville again for a walk later. 

We walked around and Riley ran around. Barking. Lots of barking.

I picked up dog poo from other dogs. PBJR said hello to the horses. PBJR ate some random grass everywhere. 

We stopped at the shop to pick up some parts for Casey. Hubby took them over to his shop. the wife and kid were there and I had to talk with them. Ugh.

Friday, April 03, 2026

FRIDAY / APR 3 / SHOP/ DOG WALK / LUNCH AT CASA / BANK/ BANK /DOG WALK / HOME

FRIDAY
APRIL 3 2026




Up at 3AM with the dogs and put them out for potty. 

I slept on the sofa. Nightmares all night. Awful weird nightmares.

Up at 5AM with dogs for potty. I went back to bed until 6:00AM. 

Riley jumped on the bed and slept with me.

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

I helped make the bed. Put dirty clothes in washer. Cleaned kitchen counter and put dishes in washer. 

Hubby cleaned cat litter. I picked up the dog poo. Still very watery poo on the rocks. 

Hubby talked to Oscar, the Landscaper out front. He said we had "missed" 3 payments this last year? Weird because he has not come over to do any work and I pay him every time.

We put harnesses on dogs and loaded them into the FMF. Drove to the shop and dropped off signs that direct deliveries to the forklift. 

RILEY HANGING HEAD OUT OF FMF DRIVING TO DOG PARK


Then we drove out to Bunkerville and walked dogs. I let PBJR off leash. She kept close to us. Riley ran around barking at all the birds. She ran SO FAST. 

We gave dogs water and loaded them into FMF. 

We drove to the CASABLANCA casino to have lunch because it was already 11AM and I had not had breakfast. I wanted to try the chicken sandwiches they had opened at the StreatWalk. A play on Street/Treat.  But the chicken sandwich place - BIG CHICKEN was not open until 3PM. Which is odd. Don't people want to eat at lunch time?

HUBBY WAITING FOR ORDER AT CASA


We settled on the Krafted Burger Bar. But you CAN'T ORDER AT THE COUNTER. You have to put your entry at the Kiosk. Yippee! No more one-on-one with customer service. Just enter your order, enter your name, enter your credit card, and phone number. Can't pay without a phone number! Then wait for the mouth-breathing staff to hand you your food. 

Some odd older woman motioned me over and I talked to her & her nieces that were from Utah. Their car broke down and Big O Tire was fixing their car while they waited. See women behind Hubby in picture above^

We left there and took our food outside to the car. 

Left there and drove to the Conoco gas station to fill - Thanks Dump - $85 to fill the car for 1/2 a week. Can't even try to drive the Dually diesel anywhere with our camper because it will cost $3000 to drive to Oregon. Probably $500 to go camping near Cedar City. 

No more travel for us. 

Then we stopped at America First CU to find out why they charged us 87 cents on our business account. Because you CAN'T TAKE MORE THAN $10,000 OUT OF A BUSINESS ACCOUNT WITHOUT INCURRING A FEE! OMG. WTF. 

Drove to MACU to make a deposit of a rent check. They will be charging people to deposit checks, next. WTF.

Drove home. 

Rested for a while. I took a nap.

Got dogs ready again. Loaded dogs into FMF after putting on their harnesses. 

Drove to Vet. I took PBJR in at 3:55PM. She got her shots. 

PBJR AT VET


Then I took her out and brought Riley inside. I waited for 30 minutes before finally going to the front desk and they said that HER appointment was at 4:30! I threw a fit and told them I had EXPRESSLY told the girl when I made the appointment that I wanted BOTH OF THEM SEEN TOGETHER. I did not want to WAIT. The reception girl apologize, but I still had to wait MORE time. I went out to the car and put Riley inside. Then I waited 5 more minutes before the Vet tech came out. 

RILEY AT VET


Then I had to explain what was wrong AGAIN to the Vet Tech. This has GOT TO STOP. I have to explain 3 times before I get to see the Vet. He FINALLY came after another 10 minutes. He checked Riley out because she was biting her belly and back left leg. He finally took her in the back room and said she had EXTREMELY FULL anal glands and they had to express her glands. 

When he brought her back, she smelled like OLD LADY PERFUME AND SHIT. OMG. I was going to vomit. I took her outside and put her in the car with Hubby. I went inside to pay. 

They had also given her a Steroid shot. 

We drove to the Info Center so that the dogs could play around in the grass. Riley rolled over repeatedly. She drank a lot of water. 

We drove home. 

At home, we watched TV. I played BALL with Riley. 

I got tired at 9PM and took a hot bath. Wanted Hubby to come to the bathroom and talk with me, but he "had things to do first" then he thought I had gone to bed. 

I finally got out of the bath, very angry. I yelled at him and told him WHY would I be in bed when I asked him to come to the bathroom? I decided to sleep on the sofa. I stayed up until 11PM because NOW I WAS NOT TIRED. 

I slept on the sofa.
