SATURDAY

OCTOBER 10 2026

At 2:30AM, I was up to potty and went out to sleep on the sofa. 

At 4AM, the alarm rang and I turned it off. I was hurting too much. All my joints ached.

I got up at 7AM. I made hot latte with Irish cream and white chocolate powder. 

I put out shredded cheese and tuna for the cats. I put out clean bowls with dog food and clean water for the dogs. 

Hubby made the bed. 

Hubby cleaned cat litter. Hubby vacuumed at 9:15AM. 

I changed the dog water yet again.

I went out to pick up poop outside. It was dark from overhead clouds (coming storm). I put the poop bags in the garbage cannister on the side of the house. 

I picked up the dog beds so it won't rain on them; Hubby is going to rake the back yard. 

The LANDSCAPER is across the street yet again for the 3rd day in a row. Noise. 

It is starting to smell like sewage outside.

Hubby went out to rake rocks at 10AM.

I took a hot bath because my right hip is hurting.

We watched Self/Less movie on YouTube. No commercials! 

At 12;30PM, we ran Riley & PBJR on the Treadmill for 7 minutes each. 

Nothing but dark skies overhead. There were broken clouds earlier, but now it is just grey.

At 1:30PM, Hubby got a phone call from a customer. They were stuck with their UTV on Cedar Pockets. Hubby had to leave and go get the trailer from Jose's yard, stopped to get fuel in town at Maverik, drive on I-15 to Cedar Pockets. Drove back with the trailer. Dropped the UTV off at the shop. 

HAULING CUSTOMER UTV WITH THE JEEP

Andy from GS Nails called and asked if I could come in today instead of tomorrow. I told him that I would call Hubby to see if he was back in time. 

Riley played with a bird on the back fence.

BIRD ON BACK FENCE

Hubby got done at the shop by 3:30PM and he came to pick me up with the Jeep and the trailer still attached.

PBJR BEING SILLY & ROLLING AROUND ON DOG BED, GRUNTING, GIVING ME SIDE EYE

We left cats in the bedrooms. Left dogs at home. 

Drove to Andy's where Hubby dropped me off. The wind started blowing hard. Hubby drove to Jose's yard where he unhooked the trailer. Then he came back to get me. 

GS NAILS BROWN FOR FALL

Andy did Hubby's nails, too. Then we took the Jeep to Beaver Dam to get fuel & lottery tickets, but THERE WAS NO POWER IN BEAVER DAM. We drove to both fuel stations, then drove back home on the I-15. 

Hubby was upset. We stopped at Walmart to run the Jeep thru the Falcon Ridge Car Wash because the Jeep was full of bugs on the windshield. 

We drove home. Hubby wanted food. I suggested Pizza at Walmart, but it looked like imminent rain with black clouds in the sky. So we drove home.

At home, we let the dogs out for potty. Let cats out of rooms. 

I called for a meat pizza (free with rewards) and a sandwich for Hubby, Hubby also wanted the dessert Lava Cakes. 

The guy was quick. Only about 20 minutes later and he brought the food. I gave him a $15 tip. The wind started blowing really badly, so the receipt blew into the wind as he gave me the food.

I went out back to bring in all the cushions because it was windy.

We sat on the sofa and ate dinner.

STUART SLEEPING ON STUFFED TOY

We watched some TV. Sat on the back patio for a while as it was cool and smelled like rain (instead of sewage). Then went to bed at 10PM.

DARK SKIES SATURDAY NIGHT

FRIDAY / OCT 9 / NO DOG WALK / RILEY SHOWER /

 FRIDAY

OCTOBER 9 2026

Up at 3:33AM and turned off the alarm. I hurt everywhere. 

I went to sleep on the sofa in the living room.

Awake at 5:30AM when the sun was coming up. Riley was looking at me with her paws on the sofa. 

EARLY MORNING STORM CLOUDS

I got up and made a hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself. I put out tuna and shredded cheese for the cats. 

I started the shower. I got in and showered. Washed my hair, then Hubby brought Riley in and I washed her down. I rinsed her and Hubby came to dry her off.

Did bookwork.

Hit a wall.

Made a crepe. 

Hubby was being irritating. His ADHD showing thru. 

Tater's leg still hurting. Limping. Gave him 1 Tramadol for pain.

I went outside to pick up dog poo. 

Hubby cleaned cat litter and took bag out to garbage can as I took the dog bags to the garbage can.

I did bookwork. Made more hot tea. 

I took the dogs outside while Hubby vacuumed. Tater is limping a little bit better on his leg. I brushed Riley. Had to follow her as she tried to get away. I did not chase her, I just walked after her and found that she was hiding and shaking behind the hot tub on the side patio. She peed in fright when I came. I don't know why she hates being brushed so very badly.

While I brushed her, I tried to talk softly to her and tell her that she was beautiful, brave, and strong. She was a good girl. 

PBJR ON DOG BED

We watched a movie called The Ballad of Cable Hogue on YouTube. 

Hubby left at NOON in the Jeep for Vegas picking up shocks from Robert. 

I did bookwork. Did laundry. Put away clean laundry. The DRYER STARTED MAKING SQUEAKY NOISES. I put away clean dishes. 

I played BALL with Riley. Tater limped outside to sleep on a dog bed. 

Hubby dropped off shocks & picked up more shocks at Vital Motion with Robert. 

He stopped to get a hot dog from Chevron gas station. He said he got sick from it.

Hubby got home at 3PM. He stopped at the shop on the way home. 

He took a nap on the sofa. Said he had gotten sick from the gas station food. He was also concerned about the black on his foot. I think it is a bruise. We will have to take him to the Immediate Care on Monday. They are not open on the weekend.

I could not take a nap because Tater was sleeping stretched out on the sofa and I did not want to bother him. 

At 6:30PM, Hubby made more bacon and chicken with butter. For the crepes.

He sat down to watch more YouTube videos.

The dryer was SQUEAKING AND SCREECHING. I told him we either fix it or get a new dryer. Hubby had me order new parts on Amazon that will be here Monday. I don't think it will last that long. We do a load everyday.
