Riley had problems getting the ball and started shaking. I thought she had something wrong with her butt because she kept stopping and looking at her back. So she came over to me and I held her, looking for poop? But she was shaking. Quivering. Then I remembered that yesterday she hit her head on the post that holds up the awning. She hit it really hard. She was running for the ball and looking behind herself when she banged into it. It was quite hard. She was staggering around for a while, so we came inside. She seemed to be OK after that. 

Hubby had stopped to deposit checks at the Credit Union.

Hubby called and said he and Tater were driving in the back, so I told him that we would wave at them. 

Hubby and Tater pulled in the driveway. I let Tater outside. Hubby greeted the girls.

I had made chicken meatballs in the air-fryer, but they were too spicy for me to eat. So Hubby made spaghetti and used the meatball in sauce for dinner.
