RATTLER HANGING OUT IN A BOX ON THE DINING ROOM TABLE



We got into the hot tub at 2PM. Riley came out and swam with us. Then Hubby put things away. Oscar, the Landscaper was over at Amy's, the neighbors doing trimming. Not our place, tho. 

I played BALL with Riley in the back yard. PBJR and Tater laid down on the dog beds. Tater tried to play with a stuffed whale, but Riley got jealous and played tug-of-war with him. Both of them barking and growling. 

Riley dried off pretty fast. 

I got dressed. Then went to do bookwork in the office. 

Hubby sat down to watch TV, but his phone rang. 

Hubby went down to the shop at 3PM. Pat had called and wanted to borrow the trailer. Hubby had to take it over to his shop. 

Then Hubby stopped at Smith's to get groceries. He got some beer, frozen french fries, ribs, milk, cottage cheese, and sour cream. Over $100.

This is getting beyond ridiculous. Prices for groceries are up over 100-300%. What the actual fuck?

Fuel is up 65% Where the fuck are people supposed to get money to pay for all this?

FRIDAY / SEPT 11 / REMEMBERING 9/11 / HUBBY TO SHOP / HOT AGAIN

 FRIDAY
SEPTEMBER 11 2026




I was up in the middle of the night. I went potty and staggered to the sofa and slept there. 

Hubby was up at 4:15 to let PBJR out. She had to potty. Then he went back to bed. He was up at 5:30 and fed the cats some shredded cheese and tuna. 

I took a hot bath, then went back to sleep on the sofa. I was hurting everywhere even though I took Gabapentin. Before the bath, I took some aspirin. 

I finally got up at 7AM. I dressed. 

I was hurting everywhere all night. Still hurting this morning. 

I went to the kitchen to make crepes. Hubby had fried chicken with bacon last night, but it was a little bit too dry. He made more this morning. 

I boxed his crepe up in a plastic container so he could take it to work. 

Hubby cleaned the cat litter. 

I went out and picked up dog poop. Lots of pudding poo. No more liver treats.

Hubby left for the shop at 8:50AM. 

I did bookwork. I cleaned counter in kitchen and put dishes in dishwasher. 

I did more bookwork until 11:30AM.

I put away clean clothes. I put away clean dishes. I vacuumed. I picked up more dog poo in the back yard.

Put cats in bedrooms. Rattler and Robert in front room. Stuart in our room by himself. Put water in rooms.

Left dogs at home.

I went to GS Nails at 2:30AM for my 3PM appointment. Andy's mom was still there. A woman named Wendy came in to get a pedicure with Mom. I got my nails done. Andy fixed my split toenail. 

Andy re-scheduled my new 2 months appointments because he is leaving again to take his Dad & Mom back to Vietnam so his Dad can do a religious ceremony before he dies. 

I was a bit irritated. I don't like him leaving. He will be gone when the majority of his customers are returning. 

I got done there and Hubby asked me to come pick him up at the shop to get vehicles that were at the Roadrunner Tires. I drove him up there and he got a Raptor pickup. Then I had to meet him at the store and take him back AGAIN to pick up another car.

I finally got home to the dogs at 4:15PM. They were happy. I let the cats out. I let the dogs out for potty.

We waited for Hubby to arrive at 5:15PM. He had to stay over time to wait for a customer to pick up a vehicle. 


RILEY & PBJR ON THE SOFA



When Hubby came home, we got in the hot tub late. 

We watched TV for a while, then we went to bed. 

Hubby put Stuart out of our bedroom and into his kennel.

I was experiencing too much hand pain, so I went to the sofa to sleep.

Hubby got home late. He said all the Snowbirds returned to town and it was extremely busy.

We had a late hot tub soak because it took forever to warm up. 

Went to bed at 9PM. 

I could not sleep in bed because of neuropathy pain in my right hand, so I went to sleep on the sofa.

Tossing and turning all night. Sweating. Woke up again at 1:15AM. Was disoriented and thought we had to get up at 3AM. I was totally out of it. Fell back to sleep. 

I was up at 3:45AM. I was hot and sweating. Turned the A/C to 70F. It was 77F degrees outside. 

I opened the front door, opened the spare bedroom mini blinds. 

I got dressed. The dogs woke up and I greeted them quietly. 

I unlocked the sliding glass door, then I put out shredded cheese and tuna for the cats. 

I let the dogs out. Hubby got up and went potty. Got dressed. Made the bed.

I made hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself.

I put the collars on the dogs. 

We loaded the dogs into the FMF. Hubby had left the truck at the shop. He had also forgotten his phone in the truck at the shop. 

Hubby and Tater got home from the shop at 4:30PM in the FMF. Tater collapsed on the floor because he was so hot. Hubby brought in all the groceries he picked up from Walmart. 

I put the groceries away. 

Hubby left & took the Jeep to go pick up Clint's truck. Then he went to the shop.

I had to call him at 5:15PM to remind him to deposit the check. He said he was leaving.

Hubby had to COME BACK HOME because he forgot the check. It was still in the money bag. 

Then he DROVE BACK DOWN to Walmart to deposit the check at the America First CU.

He got back home again by 6PM. 

Then Hubby cut up cucumbers for the dogs. 

I was doing bookwork since 3PM. The computer was responding slowly, so I had to shut it down. 

My hands are burning, so it is difficult to do the books.





He returned home.

I went potty in the front spare bathroom. 

Then I went to sleep on the sofa. Heard Hubby snoring again. 

I had restless sleep. Hand burning - neuropathy pain. I finally fell asleep. Had restless sleep. Nightmares. 

Hubby was up at 6AM and let the dogs out for potty. He put shredded cheese and tuna out for cats.

Hubby made burrito. I made hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself. I warmed up chicken/apple sausage for myself. Hubby gave Tater his morning pill.

Hubby sat down to eat his burrito and drink his latte. Then he vacuumed the floor and changed cat litter. He took it out to the garbage and then took the garbage can out to the street for collection today.

Hubby put on PBJR's pink collar. Hubby & PBJR left for the shop in the Dually at 8:30AM. She RAN out to the truck. 

I called Hubby to ask how to turn on the hot tub heater. 

I put the dirty dishes in the dishwasher and washed them. Then I put away clean clothes. 

I tried to take a nap, but there were noises everywhere. I unplugged the ice maker. 

I called the Desert Pain Clinic to make an appointment. I am TOTALLY sure that they are using an INDIAN service to make appointments. The stupid person kept putting me on hold without telling me. 

It took FOREVER for her to make the appointment. I have to wait another week to get the Prednisone injections in my hands. 

Hubby & Oscar brought PBJR home. They came at 4PM. They were SUPPOSED to be in Vegas picking up a truck that I arranged on Facebook Marketplace.

I gave PBJR a shower. Got her all clean from being at the shop today. She ran outside and dug around in the dog beds. 

They grabbed some drinks and left. They still had to go get the trailer. I checked at 5PM and they still were not even in Vegas yet. 

PBJR kept walking to the garage door because she was upset that Hubby had left her behind. I kept telling her that Daddy would be back.

I did bookwork.

I put a new light on Tater's collar because he lost his at the park the other day. 

We loaded the dogs into the truck. We were 15 minutes early. 

Drove to Bunkerville. 

Rookie cop at water plant on Falcon Ridge. Several spots smelled like sewage, at the new shopping center. At Lama. We thought a main had broken.

It was very cool today, only 67F degrees. I had brought a sweater, but it was humid out and I was hot & sweaty still. 

67F DEGREES


I carried an extra ball in my pocket in case Riley lost hers, but we walked around. Hubby wanted me to take a picture of PBJR with her "underlighting". 

PBJR WITH GREEN GLOW

PBJR saw COWS.  She stayed for quite a while, standing by the fence watching all the cows. There was a little baby drinking milk from a mommy.

We kept on walking and I finally had to put a leash on PBJR to get her to come with us. 

A car pulled up across the street and a woman raced into the bathrooms. We thought they might be walking dogs, but by the time we got to the truck, they had gone.

We gave dogs water and loaded them up. Drove home. 

Unloaded dogs. 

Let the dogs out for potty. There were sirens going, so we all went outside. Riley barked. Tater howled. PBJR made grunty noises.

I picked up dog poop.

Stuart accidentally got outside.

Hubby turned on the hot tub heater. 

I cleaned out the ice maker as it was slimy inside.

I cleaned up everything and put dishes in the dishwasher. 

I put dirty laundry in the washer and started it.

Hubby watched YouTube videos on his iPad. We listened to Jazz music on YouTube TV. 

I did bookwork. 

Hubby left for the shop in the Dually at 8:30AM. He was going to work on the Bronco today.

He met Larry, the HVAC guy there so the A/C could be adjusted and cool the front sales office & bathroom better.

Eric stopped by just before Hubby left the shop.

I put away clean clothes. I put away clean dishes. I picked up more dog poop.

DARK CLOUDS OVER MOUNTAINS

Then I made a huge crepe for Hubby so he can put burrito fixings into it. I heated it up on the back burner, which has controls COMPLETELY DIFFERENTLY SET FROM THE FRONT. OMG. What stupid man does this? Of course, a MAN would design and engineer this. ALL the knob settings need to be the same. Because people have the habit of using the same switches over and over! MUSCLE MEMORY. I HATE MALE CEOS. I HATE MALE ENGINEERS.   

I made a regular size crepe for myself. I put chicken, bacon, mozzarella, &dill sauce (made with fresh dill & sour cream). 
HUBBY'S CREPE/BURRITO

Then Hubby was down at the shop until NOON when he finally came home. 

I took a nap when Hubby came home. 

Hubby made a burrito. Even after I fed him Crepes this morning.

MORE CREPES


I woke up at 3PM. I went down to get the mail. My new hormone creams were there and had gotten warm. I put them in the fridge. 

The new SONOS MOVE had been delivered, so I brought it in and had a NOT fund time setting it up. Had to bluetooth add it to the phones, Had to add it to the SONOS app, Had to charge it. Had to find the WiFi Password. WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS. 

I picked up dog poop outside, but Riley did not want to play BALL.

PBJR sat down beside me and I rubbed her all over. She was not impressed. 

PBJR OUT ON THE PATIO


We sat out in the sunshine for a while, then came back inside.

Hubby watched YouTube on TV. 

Hubby and I left at 7AM. We drove to Tractor Supply and got dog food. I wished the checkout girl a Happy Labor Day and she looked at me like I was an alien. 

Then we washed the Jeep at Falcon Ridge Car Wash. Had to drive thru several water pools all the way thru Mesquite.

I took a painkiller and went to bed at 9:30PM.

We drove back to Mesquite. Drove home. 

STUART ON DOG BED


At home, Hubby made bacon in the oven. We had to turn on all the fans. 

I made the perfect crepe. They were very filling. Hubby had all of his and ate 1/2 of mine. 

PERFECT CREPE


I went outside to pick up dog poop. Hubby had left his cornbread in a plastic container outside beside his chair from last night. I picked it up and gave it to him.

I threw BALL for Riley.

Hubby and I put cats in rooms. Stuart in our room with water, food, potty. Rattler went in front room. Even after calling for Robert, we could not find him. We looked everywhere. Under beds, sofas, hidey holes. 

We left in the Dually. Left dogs at home. Drove to Littlefield to get fuel. Over $6.49 now. Hubby filled up with Diesel at Maverik. It went up $1 overnight dure to LABOR DAY WEEKEND. Price Gouging. 

Then we drove back. Was going to Smith's for groceries, but they were CROWDED with old idiots. Walking everywhere into traffic, blocking the way in the parking lot. I told Hubby we will come back tomorrow at opening to avoid this mess. 

We drove to UPS where Hubby dropped off an Amazon return. 

We drove home. 

I was in so much pain when we came home, I could barely walk from the truck to the house. 

We let the cats out of the rooms. Robert was in the front room with Rattler!

Hubby made lunch for himself. I took a Gabapentin for the pain and a Prednisone. 

I fell asleep on the sofa from 10:30AM to 3PM. Because of the pain pill, I slept so long.

I cleaned the counter, put dishes in the washer and turned it on, I put clean clothes away. 

I got more Spring water from the garage and put it in the ice maker. 

PBJR SLOBBERED A HEART ON THE SOFA


We watched 1 episode of Reacher. It was disappointing.

I did bookwork for 1.5 hours. My hands are going number and it is difficult to thik to place the fingers in the correct keystrokes.

We went into the hot tub at 6PM to 6:30PM. It was 102F degrees. Hubby let it get too hot. Riley came to swim with us for a while, but then started panting. I made her get out, but she tried to walk the railing and get back inside. She fell down on the side. I thought she was dead or had broken her leg, but she popped up. She is made of rubber!

We watched another couple episodes of Ted Lasso. 

I went to bed at 8:45AM. Hubby loaded the dogs onto the bed, but did not wait for me to get in. He got on my side and decided to "SAVE THE SPACE" so the dogs would not crowd me. I got into bed. 

I slept for a while, then yelled for Hubby to come to bed.

Hubby came to bed and we both fell asleep. I slept thru the night because I had taken another painkiller Gabapentin.

THURSDAY / SEPT 3 /NO DOG WALK / LIGHTS ON AT NEIGHBORS /

 THURSDAY
SEPTEMBER 3 2026


We were up at 4:30AM. I had turned off the alarm because I was so tired last night.

I asked Hubby to turn the A/C down because I was sweating in bed.

Hubby went potty. I let the dogs out. 

Hubby let dogs inside and laid down on the sofa. I told him that I wanted to sleep there. 

LIGHTS ARE STILL ON AT NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE.

I slept on the sofa until we got up at 6AM. I needed sleep and was hurting.

Hubby got up and let the dogs out for potty. He put out shredded cheese and tuna for cats. 

I helped Hubby had made the bed. 

Hubby made himself a burrito.

I made a hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself. 

I put dirty dishes in dishwasher .

Hubby sat and watched YouTube videos.

I did bookwork all morning. 

Took picture of Fall decor at front door.

FRONT DOOR FALL DECOR


Hubby walked down to the mailbox to get mail with PBJR. She was wagging her tail, all happy.

I asked Hubby to turn UP the A/C because I was freezing. I turned it off later. Nice morning. Breeze.

Hubby left at 8:30AM in the Dually.

I continued doing bookwork. I put laundry in dryer.

I started the dishwasher. 

I let dogs outside. I put away clean dishes. 

I made more hot tea. 

I vacuumed the cat litter in the armoire. I cleaned the tray from the armoire outside by the hose. 

Lots of cars passed by going up the street. A UTV drove past. VERY LOUDLY.

I put away the cat tray in the armoire. I cleaned the front bathroom. 

I put out my pumpkin in the front of the house for Fall. The FALL sign was broken, so Hubby has to put another screw in it. I put out the spiders that Hubby made me.

Sad to think that once we are dead, KRL will sell or donate all this stuff that we lovingly made and cherished. 

Hubby got home at 4PM and I told him about complaining to HOA about neighbors' lights and he said that his customer is married to the woman that handles this stuff at the HOA, so he called his customer.  The guy was really nice. His wife was not so nice. She never replied back to me at first even though it was handed off to her, and when she did reply, she was rude and abrupt. Nobody teaches these people how to handle customer service.

STUPID NEIGHBORS LIGHTS. TURNED ON BY EVEN STUPIDER REALTOR


We soaked in the hot tub. It was VERY HOT. Riley swam with us for a while. Then she got out and dried off. PBJR and Tater had come out with us because it was nicely cool. 

We all went back inside and dried off. Hubby put the cover on the hot tub. 

Watched some more episodes of Ted Lasso.

We went to bed at 9PM.

Wednesday, September 02, 2026

WEDNESDAY
SEPTEMBER 2 2026



I had slept on the sofa all night. PBJR had pushed me out of bed. Tater was snoring louder than Hubby.

Up at 4:00AM when the alarm rang in the bedroom. 

I got up and dressed. Let the dogs out for potty. Hubby got up and went potty. He dressed. Then he made the bed. I let the dogs back inside the house. 

I put out shredded cheese and tuna for the cats. 

I made hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself. 

Hubby put harnesses on dogs and we loaded them into the Dually.

It is 79F degrees outside. 

We drove to Bunkerville. Drove around to make sure the gates were closed. Hubby got out and shut the big AND little gates.

It was 76F degrees at the park.

Walked the dogs in the soccer park. I threw BALL for Riley. PBJR walked with just her pink collar and green light. Tater had his blue light special. Ran all over the park. 

Could REALLY see the stars this morning. Totally clear with no clouds.

We gave the dogs water and then loaded them into the truck. I threw away the empty water bottle.

We drove home. There were 3 semi trucks going thru the round-about. They turned into Walmart. Hubby drove around the block and remembered he wanted to wash the truck. We drove back. 

Drove thru the car wash. 

At home, I unloaded Riley. Hubby let Tater and PBJR out of the back. Took off harnesses. I put out ice for the dogs. 

We watched another couple episodes of Ted Lasso on  Amazon Prime.

Hubby cleaned cat litter at 8AM. I went outside to pick up dog poop.

Put Tater's collar on him and he left with Hubby out the front door. I had to hold back PBJR because she wanted to go out so badly. 

I put laundry in the washer to wash it. I cleaned the counter and put dishes in dishwasher. 

I made crepe breakfast for myself. With chicken, bacon, onion sauce, cheese.

I did some bookwork. 

I was just about to nap on the sofa, but the doorbell rang with UPS dropping off Hubby's new iPhone. It was just packed loosely in a box. Amazon did not require a signature. Very odd. They used to come like guarded with high security. 

RILEY & STUART PLAYING
RILEY NAPPING ON THE SOFA



I did some bookwork. I put away some refrigerator magnetic clips that I bought. Unpacked Hubby's iphone and put it in the new case. Charged Hubby's iphone. 

I put away clean dishes. 

WAITING FOR DADDY & TATER TO COME HOME


Hubby and Tater got home at 4PM after going to the Credit Union and picking up groceries at Walmart.

Our neighbor way-laid Hubby and would not let him come inside the house. Had to talk loudly to him.

Tater went out to potty. Riley kept biting at his ears. PBJR was delighted to have him home.

I got in the shower with Tater immediately because he was leaving black paw prints all over the white tile. 

Hubby dried Tater off and let him outside. He dried immediately.

I went to do bookwork. Made another hot tea. Did a return for a fan that I bought for the truck from Amazon. It would not charge. 

Tried to hook up Hubby's new phone, but it would not "FIND" the old phone.

Turned off both phones, hours later I tried to set it up again and it finally worked.

Just before we got into the hot tube, the neighbors behind our house turned on their lights (supposedly it is a realtor that comes over to "show" a house, but WHO THE FUCK TURNS LIGHTS ON IN THE MIDDLE OF A SUNNY DAY???)

We soaked in the hot tub. It was 101F degrees. Very hot. We only sat in it for a while. I had to wear a bathing suit because the neighbor is home.

We watched more episodes of Ted Lasso until I was falling asleep on the sofa at 8:30PM. 

I went to bed. Hubby brought me Gabapentin and put my heating pad under my back.

Neighbors lights were still on when we to bed. FUCKING ASSHOLES.

TUESDAY
SEPTEMBER 1 2026
FALL



I was up at 12:45AM. I went potty. A cat was yelling, but when I got up, he quit. 

I slept on the sofa and turned off my alarm on the cell phone. I needed sleep and was hurting.

Hubby got up and let the dogs out for potty. He put out shredded cheese and tuna for cats. 

I got up at 7AM from the sofa and got dressed.

Hubby had made the bed. 

Hubby made himself a burrito.

I made a hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself. I made the rest of the crepe with chicken, cheese, and bacon. Had that for breakfast. 

I put dirty dishes in dishwasher and started it. 

Hubby left at 8:30AM with PBJR in the Dually. She was happy to leave with her beloved daddy.
