SUNDAY / FEB 8 / CLEAN HOUSE /BALL WITH RILEY / CREAM ON FEET/ DOG WALK AT INFO CENTER / MASSAGE

SUNDAY

FEBRUARY 8 2026

Hubby was up at 5AM with the dogs and let them out for potty. Then they all sat on the sofa to nap for a while. Hubby watched TV and used his iPad. 

I came out at 6AM and SAW PEANUT BUTTER SITTING WITH HUBBY ON THE SOFA. She never sits next to me on the sofa. She LOVES her daddy.

I napped for another 30 minutes until the sun came up. Hubby got up and made dog breakfast eggs and gave the cats some tuna and shredded cheese.

Then I got up and made the bed. I got dressed. Went to the kitchen to make hot Amaretto latte for Hubby. I made Nanogreens, hot tea, and hot plain latte for me. 

Hubby had already made my egg bites in the air-fryer. 

I cleaned up the kitchen and started the dishwasher after packing dishes in it.

Then I started the washing machine with a load of dirty clothes. 

Hubby got dressed. 

IT IS REALLY WARM OUT TODAY. WE OPENED THE FRONT DOOR AND THE BACK SCREEN.

Let the dogs out again. Then they came inside and took after breakfast naps.

Hubby started to vacuum the house. I steam cleaned the floors. It was a lot of work. I picked everything up off the floor. I put the counter bar stools and the table chairs outside so we could get under everything. There was huge dust bunnies of dog hair and dirt everywhere. 

I put out the huge fan to dry it all. Hubby put everything back down on the floor. 

I was exhausted. 

Hubby sat on the sofa for a while. Then he made my triangle Xmas tree so I could put BALLS in it. Got that done. 

Hubby watched YouTube for a while. 

I did bookwork on the computer. Uploaded to Facebook and Instagram with RMOR pictures. Hubby came to help. Stuart clawed my back while he was climbing on the back of my computer chair.

I went outside to play BALL with Riley. The other dogs sat in the sun. 

We stuffed the new dog bed from Molly Mutt. Put 2 pillowcases in it, the old comforter, and some of Hubby's t-shirts. It is pretty dark blue with constellations. 

Hubby had to rest as he did not feel well. His tummy was hurting. He thought it was from the sweetness of his latte this morning, but I did not do anything different with it. Just used new flavoring. 

I played BALL again with Riley outside. Re-filled dog water, picked up more dog poo. 

Hubby came outside and put harnesses on dogs. I got ready and we loaded them into the FMF. 

Stopped to get mail at the box.

There were LOTS of people riding bikes in the neighborhood.

Drove to the Info Center where there were many other cars there, but no dogs.

Unloaded Riley & Tater and they immediately got tangled in the leashes. Tater got his foot tangled and is too stupid to lift it out. I had to unleash them both and start again.

We walked the dogs, but PBJR was too tired, panting, it was hot. 

Riley kept barking at trees for birds. 

We drove back home. I AM EXHAUSTED.

Unloaded dogs. 

Hubby watched YouTube for a while. I put cream on my feet. 

Hubby got clean laundry out of the dryer. I cleaned up the bathroom so we can leave the cats in our room.

I walked PBJR all over on the sidewalk. Around the bleachers. 

Hubby had Tater and Riley. They walked in the grass.

We loaded the dogs into the FMF and gave them water. Then we drove over to Smith's for groceries. Parked in the handicapped next to a couple in a big huge white GMC truck, it had steps that came out remotely. 

We got milk, sushi, egg bites, chicken sausages. Checked out, I made a cute remark about a tattoo on the cashier and he ignored me. Rude. We took our cart and left. Loaded groceries into FMF.

Drove home. Unloaded dogs. Hubby unloaded groceries. Then he left in the Jeep to go down to the shop for the Virgin Valley 4x4 Club Meeting to train them on fixing tires. 

Oscar and Mike were there. Then Eric came later. Meeting was supposed to be from 10-11 but I had written the time down as 10:30AM on our calendar. 

I called Hubby for 20 minutes from 11:45AM to 12:15PM. He was not answering his phone. I finally had to yell at him thru the camera speaker. He said he had turned off his phone for the Virgin Valley 4x4 Club Meeting.

Hubby came back from the shop after picking up groceries at Walmart. 

I took a nap on the sofa for 30 minutes. I was exhausted again.

Hubby made me PF Changs chicken from an online recipe that I gave him while I was napping on the sofa. 

Hubby baked potatoes, carrots, snap peas in the oven.

When I woke up, EVERYTHING was hurting. I was even hurting in my sleep. LOTS of pain.

I took a hot bath. Left the water in the tub.

I got dressed and played BALL outside with Riley.

Hubby gave Stuart a bath in my left-over water.

STUART IN BATH

We watched a new series on Britbox TV called The Hardacres.

We stayed up until Midnight to watch the whole 6 episode series. It was good.

Went to bed at Midnight. Put dogs out for potty. PBJR resisted, I really had to coax her to pee.

Then about 30 minutes after we went to bed, PBJR hit the floor and wanted out. I let her out and she trotted quickly over to the side of the house to poo.

I wiped her butt with a washrag when she got back. I put her back into bed. We settled down again.

Had to wash dogs. Hubby took a shower and washed Tater, Riley, then PBJR who tried to run away. I had to haul her in - she is a TUBBY girl. 

I dried off each dog. 

Then I let them play outside to dry off. I brush Riley's hair. She tried to run away because she was afraid. Even peed a little bit because she was so scared. But once I started brushing her, she really liked it. Tater & PBJR had to race along the fence after somebody that was walking past on the sidewalk.

I had to vacuum up the hair from Riley that was blowing around. 

Then I vacuumed the house. Folded the blankets. Vacuumed the cat litter from the armoire. Hubby finally changed the cat litter at Noon. I cleaned the cat box, cleaned & vacuumed behind the armoire. There was urine on the floor from where Stuart pees on the cat rug.

SATURDAY

JANUARY 31 2026

VALEN VALENTINE SCRIPT

Up at 3AM, I took some Nyquil as I was coughing so bad. I went potty and then slept on the sofa. 

Hubby was up at 6AM, let the dogs outside. I continued sleeping. He made egg breakfast for them, fed them, gave shredded cheese and tuna to the cats. 

I finally woke up, but had no energy, and laid back down for a few minutes. 

Hubby answered a phone call at 8AM and agreed to meet a customer at the store by 9AM.

I got up, dressed. Made the bed. Went to the kitchen to make a hot tea for me. We had no milk, so I could not make a latte for Hubby.

I put dirty clothes in washer and started it. Put clothes in dryer and let it run for 15 minutes before we left. 

We put collars on the dogs and took them out to the car. Loaded dogs in car. Barely in time that a woman was walking a tiny dog on the street. Tater would have killed it. Whoops.

Then we drove to the shop and met the customer. I waited in the car while Hubby helped them pick up their vehicle. Some guy stopped at the store to photograph the truck sitting out front.

THE GIRLS HANGING OUT WINDOW CATCHING SMELLS

The customer's wife knocked on my window and apologized for ruining our weekend. I told her not to worry about it as that is business!

Hubby had to get a hot latte at Dutch Bros. I had him order me another Paris flavor black tea. 

We left there and took dogs to the Info Center. Walked dogs around park. I walked PBJR on the sidewalk twice. She was panting the whole time. Riley ran after and barked at non-existent birds.

We then tried to go to the post office but there was a line of 8 people and I was not going to wait. Wanted to mail my Verizon Pension. We drove the back road to Beaver Dam, but the USPS there was closed on Saturdays. 

We wanted to stop at the school, but a WIC program was going. 

We drove to TA Travel Center and got fuel. Hubby bought lottery tickets.

We then drove over to the LDS church and walked dogs there. The grass is burnt and dried there. They are not very good stewards of the environment there.

RILEY WALKING AT LDS CHURCH

PBJR AT LDS CHURCH

TATER WANDERING AROUND AT LDS CHURCH

We drove back to Mesquite and decided to get our Costco rewards certificate and go to St George to cash it in.

We drove Home. Let the dogs out for potty. I got the certificate. Made more hot tea for me.

We loaded the dogs again and drove to St George. 

NAPPING ON THE WAY TO ST GEORGE

Then we drove to St George. Stopped at the Dixie Convention Center to walk the dogs in the grass. PBJR walked around the sidewalk twice, again panting the whole way.

CONVENTION CENTER WALK

Riley ran after more non-existent birds. We gave the dogs water and loaded them into the car.

Then we drove to Costco where there WERE NO PARKING PLACES. The place was packed. Hubby parked in the very back and walked in by himself. He was not gone very long. He came back with $30 out of the $178 certificate because they took $138 out for Membership Dues. Which usually are charged direct to the card in March. It was odd.

We drove across town to the Sandtown Park and walked the dogs there, too. Riley was looking for birds, but found none. Tater peed a lot. PBJR was dogging my footsteps. I almost tripped over her a couple times. We gave them more water and loaded them into the car. 

I gave them jerky treats. 

We drove to The Crepery and left the dogs in the Handicapped parking while we had lunch on the outdoor patio. We both went potty first, I had to use the men's room because a woman and her kids were using the women's room and I COULD NOT WAIT. I had to pee immediately. Hubby tried the men's room, but it was occupied. I guarded the door while he used the women's restroom. HEAVENS TO BETSY! If Utah officials only knew! A MAN USING A WOMAN'S RESTROOM. When you got to go, you got to go. 

THE CREPERY ON THE PATIO

I had to order a Earl Grey tea because Hubby forgot. He got his latte. We both ordered Mac Daddy crepes and Hubby had a latte in a big cup. 

A couple little girls were playing on the patio and were leaning WAY OVER THE railing. Almost ready to fall. The stupid mom was inside, playing on her cell phone, facing AWAY from the door. What an idiot. No wonder kids get killed/hurt.

We left there and drove to Moto Zoo so Hubby could check on the UTV for a customer. 

Then we drove over to the new Smith's and got groceries. Some rude woman while we were at the 12 foot counter where there were 5lb bags of potatoes had to LEAN OVER MY SHOULDER and stand 2 inches from me, to get potatoes. We had to move ALL THE WAY on the other side of the counter. What a bitch. 

Got some discount Christmas peppermint candy and chocolates. 

We paid for groceries. Loaded groceries in car and drove home. Dogs napped in the back while we drove home.

DOGS AND GROCERIES IN CAR ON WAY HOME

At home, unloaded dogs. PBJR was really sacked out in the back. I had to shake her to wake her up. She was really tired. Even struggled to walk into the house. They all went outside to pee. 

Hubby gave them snacks. 

Then all of them laid down to sleep again. Big day. 

Hubby brought in his box from the shop that Fed Ex had delivered here. I had some packages from Amazon. Dog sweatshirts and a new sweater for me.

I had a hot tea again. Then I sat on the sofa and laid down. By 4:30PM, I was sleeping.

The wood guy came at 5PM to put more stuff on the hot tub. 

There was a box delivered for my diet drugs. Zepbound from Lilly. 

I got up at 6PM. Took a hot bath. Everything was hurting. I was coughing again.

I washed and conditioned my hair. Hubby put away clean clothes.

I did bookwork and blogged.

FRIDAY

JANUARY 30 2026

QANSA BRUSH

Hubby was snoring. It woke me up. I had put the heating pad on my neck. Dogs were cuddled and making me warm.

I was coughing from 2AM when I got up, went potty, drank some Nyquil, and slept on the sofa. I fell asleep after a while. 

Hubby was up at 6AM, let the dogs out for potty. Made egg breakfast and fed the dogs, put out shredded cheese and tuna for the cats.

I finally woke up at 7:30AM. I was so exhausted. 

I got dressed. Hubby helped make the bed. 

I went to the kitchen to clean the counter, pack the dishwasher, put dirty laundry in washer. 

I made Amaretto hot latte for Hubby, hot tea and Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby had made egg bites in the air fryer for me. 

I shared my egg bites with the dogs. I did bookwork.

Hubby made cornbread so we had to wait to leave until he was done.

HUBBY HOLDING CORNBREAD ALOFT

CORNBREAD IN PAN

We finally put collars on dogs and loaded them into the FMF at 10:30AM. Stopped to get mail.

Drove to the Info Center to walk them.

TATER ROLLING ON GRASS IN PARK

PEANUT BUTTER DRINKING WATER AND WAITING TO BE LOADED INTO FMF

RILEY BARKING AT BIRDS IN TREE AT PARK

Walked dogs at Mesquite Info Center. PBJR kept panting all the way around our sidewalk walk. Gave them fresh water. 

I had Hubby stop at Dutch Bros to see if they had tea. I ordered a black tea. Never tasted anything like what they served me. It was similar to a medicine taste, but tasty. I liked it. Need to find out what it is.

Drove to America First CU so that Hubby could notarize my Pension documents. I waited in the car with the dogs. They were panting and Hubby had parked so the sun was shining on my side. I started the car and turned on the A/C. The dogs felt better.

We then drove to the Shop and checked to see if Amazon had left a package. Hubby went to get mail, but there was none. 

We drove to the other side and purchased paint from Sherwin Williams. The renter was not there, so we could not collect rent he said he had in cash.

We drove back to the Shop, Hubby opened it up and we unloaded the dogs. Nick from next door came over and talked to Hubby. I went potty and saw what a horrifying mess that the bathroom had so I cleaned it up after I was done. Before I went inside, it was a mass of black stains everywhere. The floor was completely black. The walls were black. The sink was black. There were black stains on the mirror. Greasy, mechanic mess everywhere. Urine stains on the walls, floor, and toilet. Afterwards, it almost gleamed!

GLEAMING, CLEAN BATHROOM AT SHOP

Hubby met a customer at the shop who collected his Ford Raptor. We loaded the dogs into the FMF and left there. 

Drove out to the Scenic Store to buy Lottery Tickets. I had to wait an awful long time because Hubby said that there was a guy trying to rent a too big trailer for his little truck at the U-Haul. He finally came out after 15 minutes.

BURGER KING AUTOMATED RESTAURANT - ORDER BY COMPUTER

PBJR IN A BURGER KING CROWN

We drove to the Virgin River Casino to park in the Handicapped area. Left dogs in car. We went inside and got Burger King at the automated restaurant. We fed the dogs a burger and fries. PBJR wore a King Hat. 

Drove to GS Nails where Hubby dropped me off to get my nails done.

He drove back to the shop and left dogs in FMF while he did some bookwork and prepared invoices. 

Hubby picked me up after I got my nails done. Andy's dad had been there, so they were talking a lot between themselves. I almost fell asleep, I was so tired. This cold has really beaten me down. 

My nails have gotten so much healthier since Andy started putting silk wrap on them instead of acrylics. My cuticles were so badly allergic to acrylic as I aged.

PINK NAILS WITH A PEARL FROST OVER TOP

Hubby had stopped at Dutch Bros to get me another tea because I liked the flavor so much. Paris flavored tea from Harney & Sons. 

We drove home at 4:20PM. I was exhausted. I needed a nap. 

Tater was whining on the way home. He had to go potty. We forgot to stop again for them.

Unloaded dogs and Tater ran outside and peed for quite a while. Poor dog. I told him that we were sorry we ignored his bodily needs. 

I put on a different shirt and put my sweater in the wash.

Then I put the hot tea into my cup, had some cornbread and passed out on the sofa. 

I slept until 7PM. I got up and my whole body was aching. I got up and made more hot tea. I played BALL with Riley. 

At 8PM, Hubby and I looked at stars outside. Not many out there. Too many lights.

At 9PM, I did bookwork. Hubby put away clean clothes.

Hubby watched YouTube videos all night.

I completed my Pension paperwork and packed it all in an envelop so we can mail it tomorrow.

INNER LINE

Up at 6:30AM. I tried to hold off going potty, but Riley jumped on my kidneys. 

Hubby went potty, let the dogs out for potty. 

I went potty. Got dressed. Made the bed 

Hubby started making egg breakfast for the dogs. He gave shredded cheese and tuna to the cats. 

I let the dogs inside. I went to the kitchen to make a hot Amaretto latte for Hubby, hot tea and iced Nanogreens for myself.

I did bookwork. Paid our water bill for the house, paid December sales tax for shop. Filed the Nevada MBT. 

I fitted PBJR with the sweatshirt in the closet, but she could not walk in it. The pink sweater we purchased for her is in the camper. 

Hubby & PBJR left in the FMF, then returned briefly. Hubby knocked on the garage door. He had forgotten his phone. PBJR already had pulled her t-shirt off.

I started the dishwasher and cleaned the kitchen counter & sink. 

I put clean clothes in the dryer.  

I picked up dog poo outside and threw BALL for Riley.

Riley & Tater stayed outside. I did bookwork.  I took down the snowmen that I had up for January and put up Valentine's decor. 

I ordered some sweatshirts for Tater, I started putting away 2023-2025 business folders in the storage box that we had purchased at Walmart. I ordered more file folders. 

Hubby sent many pictures of PBJR playing with people at the shop. Getting pets, getting belly rubs.

I played BALL with Riley outside. I put away clean clothes.

I did more bookwork. Hubby texted and I ran a credit card for customer at shop. 

I conditioned my hair again. It is getting so thin and breaking off. I am in despair. 

PBJR and Hubby came home after stopping at MACU to deposit $. Then they drove behind the house. Tater, Riley, and I went out to see PBJR and the dogs barked at her.

Hubby unloaded her and she rushed into the house to potty in the back yard. 

Even though Hubby said Nick had taken her out for walks and potty several times, she did not go potty. She held it until she got home. 

Then Hubby gave the dogs some treats. PBJR had eaten her peanut butter ball at the shop. 

I did bookwork. Hubby sat down to watch YouTube videos with the dogs.

We watched TV for a while. I played BALL with Riley outside. 

I took a hot bath.

Hubby started snoring on the sofa after we watched Corner Gas. Then we went to bed at 10PM.
