We had to put Stuart in the cat kennel because he was scratching at the bedroom door.
Riley was up REPEATEDLY last night. I left the bed and went potty. Then slept on the sofa in the living room.
Hubby was up with dogs at Midnight.
I was up with Riley at 2:30AM. Again at 3:30PM. Tater got up a couple times with her and then PBJR went out once with her.
At 5AM, Hubby had set his phone alarm and it was going off.
I got up, turned it off. Told Hubby to get up.
I started making hot cinnamon/honey latte for him.
He came to the kitchen to make egg breakfast for dogs.
I got dressed. Made the bed. I then made plain latte, Nanogreens, and Paris tea for myself.
Hubby got dressed. He put harnesses on dogs. We put Tater's electric collar on him.
Hubby loaded dogs into FMF. I made sure the toilet was not flushing (need new interior mechanism for it) then shut off lights and ice maker.
Got in FMF and we drove to St George. Went to FleetPride at their new building out by the airport. Dropped off the driveshaft that was cut wrong.
Then we drove to the Convention Center. Walked dogs. I got PBJR to run. Tater pooped. I picked it up. Gave them water. Loaded them into the FMF.
Drove to Maverik on the other side of the interstate and Hubby got a tasteless bacon burrito and a couple things called sausage egg and cheese Bundles. They were under baked doughy.
Drove to Littlefield and got Lottery tickets.
A HUGE bug hit Hubby's side of the windshield.
Drove to Mesquite. Unloaded dogs at home.
Hubby made cheese egg bites in air-fryer for me. I had to clean up ALL THE POOP THAT RILEY DID LAST NIGHT. In the front room, in our bedroom. It was disgusting and ,made the house smell AWFUL.
I had to put fans in every room to dry the carpet.
I started washing all the dirty clothes.
Hubby cleaned cat litter.
Hubby & Tater left for the shop at 8:20AM.
I put away clean dishes. I put clothes in dryer.
PBJR and Riley went outside. I picked up dog poo. Along with the rags I threw out from cleaning her mess inside, I put it in a plastic bag to throw away.
We came inside and I sat on the sofa to rest for a while. I did not get ANY SLEEP last night.
At 11:30AM, the USPS lady came and left packages. Riley barked at her. Hubby's new iPad came from Amazon today.
I slept on the sofa for 30 minutes. PBJR slept on my feet.
When I woke up, I went potty. Made more hot tea. Went outside to play BALL with Riley again.
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.
I synced Hubby's new iPad to his phone. Then he sat down and used it.
I did bookwork until 8:30PM.
We watched LoveBoat until 10PM and went to bed. Put dogs out for potty. PBJR walked around in the whole back yard with me before she finally went potty.
