MEMORIAL DAY

Up at 3:30AM when Hubby had to potty, I got up and went potty, too. 

Then back to bed. I was exhausted. 

Slept until 5:15AM. I got up and went potty again. 

I got dressed. Went to the kitchen to make hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for me. 

Hubby got up and put the dogs out for potty. 

Hubby gave shredded cheese and tuna to the cats. 

Hubby got dressed.

I went outside and took the drinks to the car and unlocked the car and opened the back door.

We loaded the dogs in the FMF. 

Hubby had to back up and see-saw the car around the camper plugged in at the driveway in the street. 

We left there and drove to Bunkerville. 

Got to the soccer park late - about 6:15AM and still were the only ones there!

Riley ran around, but there were not a lot of birds in the park today.

I picked up a couple of other dog's poop. Tater pooped. 

We gave the dogs water and loaded them into the car. 

Drove to the Info Center. We unloaded the dogs and not 5 minutes later, the woman in the white car with two little dogs drove in. We quickly put leashes on the dogs and tried to get them out of the park. She was sitting in her car, screaming "It's OK." What a fucking idiot old biddy. She let her dogs out and they ran around. Our dogs wanted to kill them. Hubby had to pull Tater to the car and I had to pull PBJR to the car. Fucking rude old woman.

We drove home after that as it was getting hotter. 

At home, unloaded dogs and they went out for potty again. 

Then Hubby made breakfast burritos for himself using his left-overs. I made him turn on the fan because it was stinky. The peppers were getting to me. I could not breathe.

After that, we worked on cleaning out the camper. Put in more measuring cups and coffee cups. Hubby took out the crap in the bathroom so we had room there. I cleaned off all the counters and wiped them down. I cleaned out the sink. I cleaned out the microwave and cooktop. I cleaned the bathroom and the shower stall where there was lots of dirt. 

Then I re-made the bed and took out the pillow cases to wash. Hubby helped me put the comforters on the bed and re-arrange them. 

I had to take a Nitro because my heart was seizing.

Then we washed clothes. Put 4 loads of laundry in and washed them.

I came inside and made more hot tea for myself. I ate some chicken/apple sausage for breakfast. 

Hubby washed off the waterproof dog beds and put them out to dry. 

I took a nap. Hubby started the heater in the hot tub. But by 2PM, it still was not warm enough.

I took a hot bath in the front bathroom. I put conditioner on my hair. I put away more clean clothes. 

Hubby watched YouTube videos.

MAY 21 2026

Just after midnight, I got up to potty and Hubby said he had cramps. I found him in the livingroom and he came back to bed. 

Hubby was up at 3:30AM with the dogs and put them out for potty. Then they decided to chew on bones. They were out in the living room until 4AM. 

I slept on the sofa until 5:30AM. Got up late. 

I told Hubby we slept late and he said "five more minutes". So I got dressed and went to the kitchen to make a hot latte for Hubby and tea for me. 

I put out shredded cheese and tuna for the cats. Stuart was so greedy to get the tuna that he almost knocked it out of my hand. 

Then the dogs got up and I let them out for potty. 

PBJR HANGING OUT ON THE SOFA UNTIL TIME FOR WALKIES

Hubby got up and dressed. We put harnesses on the dogs and loaded them into the FMF. 

PBJR is so cute. Hubby takes Tater out by the collar in case other dogs are out there, PBJR scoots under the garage door as it goes up and stands there in the driveway by the car, sniffing east-west-north-south. She has to smell the wind blowing. Only then will she load into the car. 

We drove to Bunkerville and even though the other woman's truck was there with the ramp down, we did not see her or her dogs. 

So we let Riley out to run and she went after a bird all the way to the other side of the field right away. 

Hubby put out water for dogs. We barely had 2 bottles left as he did not load another case of water yet.

We walked around the soccer park. PBJR was on a leash. Tater was on a leash. Riley was free dog today as usual. She responds so well to us. Riley pooped and I picked it up. Dropped it off in the garbage can by the street. We avoided the low area that was filled with water as the grass was already too wet today. 

Then we got back to the car and the dogs drank more water. Riley chased a bird and turned herself around when she got to the blacktop. She regulates herself so well. She knows her boundaries well.

We loaded the dogs into the FMF and drove to the Info Center. As we were driving around East Hafen Lane, there was still smouldering fire & smoke from the fire that was there yesterday. The elementary school had been evacuated yesterday and the fire burnt up to the Hafen Lane park.

We continued to Sandhill Boulevard where we saw the same two Latinos crossing the street to join their fellow employees at the Maverik. The one older man does not walk very well at all. Yet he still has to work. 

Pulling into the Info Center, we saw there was nobody else there. So we parked and let Riley out to run after birds. Put PBJR on a leash. Walked around the whole Info Center on the sidewalk. PBJR really likes to walk there. 

Gave the dogs water afterwards and I picked up tiny branches to make a craft. I remember that one of my crafts needs sticks, but I forget which one.

We loaded the dogs into the FMF and drove thru town to Flying J. Stopped to look at the smashed awning at the Tire Store. They STILL HAVE NOT FIXED IT AFTER A MONTH! 

COLLAPSED AWNING AT ROADRUNNER TIRE

We drove thru Wendy's and Hubby got a Bacanator sandwich while I got a Honey Buddy Chicken Biscuit. We also ordered breakfast potatoes. 

Hubby snacked on the potatoes while we drove home. Dogs settled in the back seat and chewed on deer antlers. 

At home, we unloaded dogs. Hubby cleaned cat litter and helped me make the bed. I put away clean dishes. 

Hubby put dirty clothes in the washer. Hubby made a couple phone calls. Then he sat down to watch YouTube on TV. 

I played BALL with Riley outside. I picked up dog poo.

I did some bookwork and checked account balances. Hubby had me email TMS for some warranty on a part.

Hubby left at 8:30AM in the white Jeep for the shop. 

I did bookwork. I put away clean clothes. I played BALL with Riley. It got pretty hot outside today. Dogs wanted to stay inside and nap. 

I am exhausted and have a headache.

Hubby got home at 3:30PM. He said they were re-did the air compressor lines. They cleaned the shop. 

He made dinner. Twice baked potatoe for me. 

Then he took a nap on the sofa. 

I went outside to play BALL with Riley. Then Hubby woke up after PBJR came outside. He came outside with us. I brought the Sonos speaker out and we listened to music. The neighbors down the street have their kids/grandkids were screeching; disturbing the peace. So I played music to drown them out. WHY do little kids have to scream and screech so much?

We came inside at 9PM after it started smelling like shit outside from the golf course watering. 

Watched TV until bed.

WEDNESDAY / DOG WALK / DOG WALK / TATER TO SHOP /

MAY 20 2026

Dogs were up at 12:30AM and 3:30AM. Hubby put them out for potty.

I was up at 5AM and started the ice maker. I made a hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for me. 

I washed and conditioned my hair. 

Hubby got up with the dogs and let them out again for potty.

Put harnesses on dogs and loaded them into FMF. Hubby started his new mini vacuum and cleaned out the back of the FMF. 

FUEL MAY 20 2026 CASH PRICES. CREDIT PRICES $5.60 DIESEL $6.09

We drove to Bunkerville. Nobody else on the roads. Still finishing up the new shopping center at the corner of Falcon Ridge and Hardy Way. 

At Bunkerville, we walked the dogs in the wet grass at the soccer park. Riley got all wet while chasing birds. PBJR was wild dog with no leash. She hung by Hubby a lot. Tater pooped and I picked up most of it. It was still gooey pudding mess. 

Tater ran across the park several times. Even though he is still limping on his left rear leg.

We gave the dogs water and loaded them into the car. 

Drove to the Info Center and walked the dogs there. Riley always has to jump out of the car and race to the trees looking for birds. Barking at birds. We walked around the sidewalk. PBJR was on a leash. Even though she was panting, she did really well. 

We gave the dogs water and loaded them into the FMF. Still a lot of branches down in the area. 

We drove home. 

Unloaded dogs. I let the dogs outside for potty again. 

I did bookwork. Hubby cleaned cat litter. He made himself breakfast. Loaded the car with returns. Vacuumed out the car again. 

TUESDAY / MAY 19 / GARBAGE DAY / DOG WALK / DOG WALK /SMITH'S GROCERIES / PBJR TO SHOP

MAY 19 2026

Up at 3AM. Tater was kicking and shaking all night. Kept me awake. 

At 4AM, I got up and slept on the sofa until 5AM when I got up.

I got dressed. Hubby made the bed. 

I went to the kitchen to make hot latte for Hubby, hot latte & tea for me.

Got all the garbage together before we left. 

Put harnesses on dogs and loaded them into FMF. 

It was 59F degrees this morning. The storm the other day blew in cooler air.

Drove to Bunkerville. Tater barked in our faces at the dogs that were being walked in Sun City.

Riley sat on my lap, then stuck her head out the window. 

We walked the dogs at the soccer field in Bunkerville. Hubby had to shut the gate. Tater pooped and I picked it up. 

I had to potty at the end of the walk, so Hubyb gave the dogs water and loaded them in the FMF. He drove over to pick me up at the restrooms in the park.

Then we drove to the Info Center. Saw kids walking to school. Saw a school bus.

At the Info Center, the old man was picking up debris but we stayed away from him. 

Riley ran around barking at birds. There was an excessive amount of tree debris that was not there yesterday...

We walked around and PBJR was on a leash. She likes the sidewalk.

We gave the dogs water and then loaded them into the car. 

Drove to Smith's to get some groceries. Milk, Sweet tea for Hubby, egg bites for me, maple links sausage, donuts for the guys at the shop, sushi for Hubby. 

We paid and left. Hubby loaded the groceries in the car. 

We drove home. Hubby unloaded groceries.

I went to let the dogs out in the back yard. I picked up dog poo. I cleaned out cat litter. 

Then he got mad at me when I asked him if he had vacuumed already. I was really upset that he yelled at me and I got mad back at him. 

Hubby vacuumed. 

Hubby & PBJR left for the shop at 8:45AM. 

I did bookwork.

I ate the chocolate croissant that I got at Smith's. 

I played BALL outside with Riley.

I loaded the dishwasher and started it. I did 3 loads of clothes. One load of dog blankets. 

I did more bookwork. 

I played more BALL with Riley. It is nice and cool today. Not very hot for May.

Hubby and PBJR got home at 4:30PM. They went to the bank to deposit a check, UPS to returns parts, and then back to the shop briefly.

Hubby sat down to watch TV. 

I took a hot bath. 

We went to bed at 9PM.

MONDAY

MAY 18 2026

I was up immediately after going to bed as Hubby was SNORING. Tater pushed me out of bed. 

I went to the living room sofa and slept until PBJR came out to drink water and wanted outside. She pottied, then I had to wipe off her butt as she had poop debris on it. I had to clean the carpet in our room where she sat down, waiting to be picked up for bed. 

Hubby got out of bed and put her on top of the bed. 

I went back to sleep in bed. 

Up at 6:15AM. We were both tired. 

Hubby let the dogs out for potty. I made the bed. Hubby fed shredded cheese and tuna to cats. 

I got dressed and went to the kitchen to make hot latte for Hubby and hot tea for me. 

We put harnessed on dogs and loaded them into the FMF. 

Drove to Bunkerville to walk them in the soccer park. Lots of tree branch debris and tumbleweeds everywhere. Riley barked at birds. PBJR was walking pretty well. Riley pooped and I picked it up. Tater ran around until we put him on a leash.

Then we gave them water and loaded them into the FMF. 

FUEL PRICES AT SMITH'S MONDAY MAY 18 2026

Drove to the Info Center to walk them at the park there. Tater pooped. Riley ran after birds. PBJR and I walked on the sidewalk. There was a van camper parked on the far side by the cemetery and we did not walk near them. 

We gave the dogs water and loaded them into the FMF.

PBJR SITTING ON ME WITH HER WIDE BUTT

Drove home, unloaded dogs. Took off harnesses Opened the front door as it is only about 66-70F degrees. The wind blew in some cooler air. 

Hubby made himself breakfast. I picked up dog poop in the back yard. 

I did some bookwork. Paid Utility bills. Hubby left at 8:39AM for the shop in the FMF. 

I vacuumed up cat litter in the armoire, put laundry in the washer & dryer, loaded the dishwasher and cleaned the countertops & sink, vacuumed the debris out at the front door, filled dog bowl & cat bowls with fresh water, cleaned and filled dog food bowls. 

Then I did more bookwork.

I got up and made a hot latte for Hubby, hot tea for myself.

I did not really eat today. 

I was sick all day from Altitude Sickness, so I slept. 

I finally took some Gabapentin, some Prednisone, and some Tylenol to counter the side effects. I took lots of hot baths to treat the pain.

I mostly slept. Hubby took care of laundry and the dogs. 

I got up late and went out to pick up dog poo outside. 

I had no energy to walk dogs at all.

PBJR slept most of today, too. I think she might have gotten the Altitude Sickness. She had been panting while in the mountains, trying to find shade and cooler areas to nap, she wanted to go to bed early. 

I went to bed early at 9PM. Hubby had made the bed for me. 

He brought the dogs in to sleep with me. 

FRIDAY / MAY 15 / DOG WALK / PROPANE / PACK FOR CAMPING / CEDAR CITY / ARBYS / DOG WALK /CAMPING AT CEDAR BREAKS

FRIDAY
MAY 15 2026 

DRIVING TO CEDAR CITY

In Cedar City, we got Arby's burgers to feed the dogs. We drove to the local soccer park and walked the dogs. I went potty in the restrooms. Hubby drove down to pick me up.

We stopped at the CAL Ranch store so Hubby could buy some dog food as we forgot it at home. There were some VERY OLD PEOPLE that had driven an old pickup with a HUGE horse trailer. I watched them load supplies into the truck when they came outside.

Hubby had eaten too much bread from Arby's sandwich, so he was having problems with his stomach.

Drove over to Smith's so I could run inside and get SMORES, milk for lattes. 

We also stopped at Beans & Brews where I got blueberry muffins and cinnamon bread for tomorrow's breakfast. And frozen lattes to drink now.

Hubby finally felt better after he burped many times. 

We drove up into the mountains. Both of us felt pretty good because we stopped so long in Cedar City, and we had taken the Altitude sickness pills we had purchased on Amazon.

We got up to the intersection of the Cedar Breaks road thru the park and Cedar Canyon. We took the dogs for a walk down to the creek. Riley and Tater just LOVED jumping and running thru the cold water. Riley kept snorkeling her nose in the water and trying to jump over it. 

Riley ran around so much. She was having fun. I had PBJR on a leash. My heart was not even doing badly with the walk down to the creek and back up. 

We drove towards Cedar Breaks and camped where we always do on Candy Loop and Midway Ridge. 

Set up camp, let the dogs run. Riley ran across the field looking for birds. Tater disappeared into the woods. PBJR just hung around with us.

DOGS CHECKING OUT CAMPER AT FIRST CAMP

HUBBY THROWING SNOWBALLS FROM LEFTOVER SNOW ON GROUND

DOGS NAPPING AFTER OUR 3RD WALK

Hubby started a fire after we came back from our 2nd walk.

Then some idiot in a car decided to drive thru camp and then parked not 50 yards from us. Hubby and Tater walked over to see what he was doing. Not setting up a tent or camper. He seemed to be sleeping in his car? It was VERY CREEPY.

So we decided to move camp across the field. But it was really wet over there on the ground and had no trees for coverage. I was upset. It got really cold. Hubby made a fire, but I could only sit out for about an hour. 

Tater had been shivering, so we put the dogs in the camper early. PBJR keep whining because she did not want to be alone. 

Hubby roasted his bratwurst. I went inside early with the dogs

NEW CAMP ON OTHER SIDE OF FIELD

OUR SECOND FIRE OF THE NIGHT

RILEY PHOTO-BOMBED OUR SELFIE

After I went inside and warmed up the camper with the propane stove, I sat down to deal cars for UNO. Hubby finally came inside after the fire died down a little. 

We played several games of cards. 

Then I could not stay awake any longer. Got into bed. It was impossible to fix the comforters because the dogs were already on top of them. Tater was smashed in the middle. Riley was at my feet. PBJR was next to Hubby. 

At Midnight, the wind started to blow. Hubby went outside to investigate. There was a mist? Or was it rain? He decided to bring everything inside that we had outside. (Packed it up for the 3rd time!)

I could not sleep. Then I could not breathe. Then I became panicky. Took a Nitro pill. 

Told Hubby that I had to get down off the mountain. 

We packed everything up. I was dizzy and disoriented. Got the dogs loaded in the truck. 

Hubby drove us down (we saw quite a few cars driving up the mountain at 1AM)

Finally got to Cedar City. It was deserted. No cars in town at all. 

We got on the interstate. Listened to 1970's music on Spotify. I kept taking shots of Oxygen from the bottle we bought. I took several Nitros. 

I finally felt better by St George. 

We got thru the gorge and into Mesquite. 

At home, we unloaded the dogs. It was about 2AM. 

I took a hot bath. Then sat on the sofa and slept. 

We finally went to bed and slept until 9AM the next morning. 

THURSDAY / MAY 14 / DOG WALK / DOG WALK / BURRITOS / TATER TO SHOP / LUNCH WITH RAVEN / EXHAUSTED / HUBBY HOME LATE

THURSDAY

MAY 14 2026

I went to bed late at 11:30PM. I covered Tater up with his dog blanket, but he kicked me and I could not fall asleep. I went to the living room and slept on the sofa. 

Rattler scratched at the sliding glass door for 1 hour. He wants out. 

We had put Stuart in the cat carrier because he was fighting with Rattler last night, but at 1AM, he started miaowing and scratching, so I let him out. I shut the bedroom door.

At 4AM, Hubby was up with PBJR and let her out for potty.

At 5AM, Hubby was up with the dogs and let them out for potty.  I got up, folded my blanket, and got dressed.

I made the bed. Hubby got dressed. I made hot latte for Hubby, hot plain latte for myself. 

We put harnesses on the dogs and loaded them in the FMF. By 5:40AM we were leaving the house. 

About 68F degrees today. Definitely cooler.

We drove to Bunkerville, on Falcon Ridge where they were just fixing 1 lane at Hardy, they now have that whole right side closed - diverting traffic on the left side in 1 lane going against traffic. The car in front of us decided to slow down to 15mph because they were so scared of on-coming traffic (1 old truck). AGAIN, we were behind a car that was so very slow because they were afraid of being in the wrong lane.

AGAIN, they paved over the road and have the road closed for no reason. There were no construction workers anywhere.

We drove to Bunkerville and walked the dogs at the soccer field. Riley barked at lots of birds, Tater ran around a lot. PBJR was on a leash. She seems MUCH more happy and animated.

We gave them water after the walk and then loaded them into the car. 

Drove to the Info Center via Riverside Road. Tater barked at lots of dogs being walked. 

We unloaded dogs at the Info Center. Riley barked at birds. The garbage cans had finally been dumped. No homeless. No other cars. 

PBJR was on a leash. Tater was off leash. Riley was off-leash but listens to us when we call her. We walked around 1 whole time. PBJR was panting by the end.

We gave the dogs water and then loaded them in the FMF. 

We drove home. At home I unloaded the dogs and let them out in the back yard. I picked up dog poo.

Hubby made burritos out of left-overs in the fridge. 

I did bookwork. Hubby watched YouTube videos for a while. 

Hubby & Tater left at 8:30AM in the FMF for the shop. He unplugged the white Jeep for me. I hope it starts!

I vacuumed the cat litter. I started laundry in the washer. I started dishwasher. 

I went outside with Riley & PBJR to play BALL with Riley.

PBJR stayed outside for a while. 

I put away dishes. I put away clean clothes. I put on my blue tailored shirt (that I have not been able to wear for a LONG WHILE because I was fat) and blue necklace. I did my hair with conditioner. Flattened it out. Not too many styles while it grows out. 

I put on makeup. 

I put cat litter in our room for while I am gone to lunch with Raven.

Lunch with Raven at Scotty's, but it was full with golfers in blue shirts that were walking ignorantly around the parking lot.

Instead, we went to Lama and had empanadas, Raven had pasta with beef sauce, I had chicken with spicy rice. Yum. 

I took her home and returned home. I was exhausted. 

Let the cats out, had to clean up all the litters. Vacuumed. 

Played BALL with Riley several times. Only short amount of time outside each instance because it was over 95F degrees by now. 

Hubby came home late. Had to meet customers after work hours. 

Hubby brought home the camper and truck. 

Then Tater was put in back yard and pooped MANY times. Peed a long time. 

Hubby had to BACK to shop and meet another customers. 

WEDNESDAY / MAY 13 / DOG WALK / DOG WALK / SHOP / HUBBY TO ST GEORGE

WEDNESDAY

MAY 13 2026

I was up at 3AM and could not sleep. Was hot and sweaty. Went to the living room and slept on the sofa. 

Riley was up at 4AM and I had to let her out. She ate kibble and drank water. Then she went back to the bed. 

I went back to the sofa and slept. Until 5AM when the dogs got up again. Hubby got up at 5AM and was sitting on the sofa. I wanted to nap on the sofa, so he had to move. He was looking at his iPad. I fell back to sleep. 

We got up at 5:45AM. I got dressed. Went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, hot tea for me. Hubby gave tuna and shredded cheese to the cats. I made the bed, got dressed.

We put harnesses on the dogs and loaded them in the FMF. By 6AM we were leaving the house. 

About 80F degrees so far today.

We drove to Bunkerville, on Falcon Ridge where they were just fixing 1 lane at Hardy, they now have that whole right side closed - diverting traffic on the left side in 1 lane going against traffic. The car in front of us decided to slow down to 15mph because they were so scared of on-coming traffic (1 old truck). AGAIN, we were behind a car that was so very slow because they were afraid of being in the wrong lane.

AGAIN, they have now dug about 8 feet down below the road service. There were several men standing underneath the road. Must have broken sewer line. 

We drove to Bunkerville and walked the dogs at the soccer field. Riley barked at lots of birds, Tater ran around a lot. PBJR was on a leash. 

We gave them water after the walk and then loaded them into the car. 

Drove to the Info Center via Riverside Road. Tater barked at lots of dogs being walked. 

We unloaded dogs at the Info Center. Riley barked at birds. There was a City of Mesquite truck that was driving around. He had NOT DUMPED ANY OF THE GARBAGE CANS. We believe he chased the homeless out of the area. 

We kept the dogs on leashes. Riley was off-leash but listens to us when we call her. We walked around 1 whole time. PBJR was panting by the end.

We gave the dogs water and then loaded them in the FMF. 

We then drove back to the shop on Riverside to check and see if Hubby had left his money bag there. He had not. It must be at home in the Jeep and he just did not look for it.

We drove home. At home I unloaded the dogs and let them out in the back yar. I picked up dog poo.

Hubby was not coming in, so I opened the garage door. He was talking to the asshole neighbor with the dog that he won't put a leash on. The dog was coming in our garage. 

Finally, Hubby came inside. He cleaned cat litter. He watched YouTube TV while I did bookwork. 

Hubby left for the shop at 8:36AM. He took the FMF because the guys next door were going to fix the A/C. 

I played BALL with Riley outside. 

I put together the new Shark vacuum that came from Costco yesterday. I vacuumed the cat armoire and the whole house. Robert pooped and peed in the cat litter twice, so I had to clean it up again and again. 

I put together the new Canon EOS Rebel digital camera that I bought. It came this morning; left by FedEx. 

CANON EOS REBEL

I washed and conditioned my hair with WOW Money Hair Mask 

I put away clean dishes. I put away clean clothes. 

Hubby got home at 1:45PM. He took the white Jeep and some tea on his roadtrip to St George so that he could get to his appointment (for the 2nd time) at Costco for hearing aids. I also gave him the winning $ Lottery tickets so that he can purchase more.

I took the dogs outside again so I could play BALL with Riley. She ran until she hurt her foot. Holding up her right foot. I rubbed it for her and she felt better.

We came inside because it was too hot outside.

I was up at 3AM and could not sleep. Was hot and sweaty. Went to the living room and slept on the sofa. 

Riley was up at 4AM and I had to let her out. She ate kibble and drank water. Then she went back to the bed. 

I went back to the sofa and slept. Until 5AM when the dogs got up again. I had to let Tater & Riley out. Then let them inside. I was putting Tater in bed when PBJR jumped down and wanted outside. I let her out and then loaded her back into bed when she came back inside. 

I got into bed and Hubby was almost awake. I told him about my bad dream where we sacrificed Rattler by throwing him out of the car when 2 bears were chasing us for their cub. It was an awful dream. 

We got up at 5:30AM. I got dressed. Went to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, hot tea for me. I gave tuna and shredded cheese to the cats. Hubby made the bed, got dressed.

I picked up dog poo in the back yard. 11 loads. I threw a BALL for Riley. Hubby brought the dogs inside while I went to the side yard and took the garbage cannister out to the road. 

We put harnesses on the dogs and loaded them in the FMF. By 6AM we were leaving the house. 

About 68F degrees so far today.

We drove to Bunkerville, on Falcon Ridge where they were just fixing 1 lane at Hardy, they now have that whole right side closed - diverting traffic on the left side in 1 lane going against traffic. The car in front of us decided to slow down to 25mph because they were so scared of on-coming traffic (1 old truck). 

They have now dug about 8 feet down below the road service. There were several men standing underneath the road. Must have broken sewer line. 

We drove to Bunkerville and walked the dogs at the soccer field. Riley barked at lots of birds, Tater ran around a lot. PBJR was on a leash. 

We gave them water after the walk and then loaded them into the car. 

Drove to the Info Center via Riverside Road. Tater barked at lots of dogs being walked. 

We unloaded dogs at the Info Center. Riley barked at birds. There was a creepy dark haired homeless guy that walked thru and then hung out behind the Info Center.

We gave the dogs water and then loaded them in the FMF. 

Drove to FatDough and Hubby got a blueberry danish and I got a bear claw. We paid and left. We had left the dogs in the car with the windows down, but it was not hot yet. 

We drove home the back way on Horizon Boulevard to avoid Falcon Ridge. 

At home, neighbor with the loud voice was other there at his garage, waving at us. 

We unloaded dogs. I took off their collars. I did bookwork. Hubby sat down to watch YouTube TV. 

I had to stop because I HIT A WALL. Had Hubby make me some egg bites & sausage while I sat on the sofa. 

Hubby cleaned cat litter and took it out to the can in the street. 

Hubby left at 8:36AM in the white Jeep for the shop. It was going to be too hot to take Tater today.

I did more bookwork. 

I started dishwasher. I started laundry in the dryer. I took out the blankets that I washed & dried for PBJR. 

The garbage truck came and dumped our cannister. I took it behind the fence again. 

I took Riley outside and played BALL with her before it got too hot. Tater & PBJR sat on dog beds. 

I put away clean dishes. I put away clean clothes. 

MONDAY / MAY 11 / DOG WALK / DOG WALK / DEL TACO BURRITOS

MONDAY

MAY 11 2026

Hubby got up and put Rattler out of our room. He had been walking BEHIND the mini blinds. Hubby locked the door to our room.

It was stuffy and warm in our room.

I was up at 3:30AM. I had a nightmare where Hubby drove the Jeep into a lake and it sank. I got up and slept on the sofa. 

Hubby was up at 5AM with the dogs and I told him to let me sleep until 5:30AM. I was up before then, tho. 

Hubby made the bed. Fed the cats shredded cheese and tuna. 

I got dressed. Made latte for Hubby and tea for me. 

We got harnesses on the dogs and loaded them into the FMF. 

In the FMF on the way to Bunkerville at Hardy Way & Falcon Ridge Parkway, there was a broken water main that had flooded the road with water & mud. There was a crew of 8 working it, with lots of trucks parked around, they had narrowed the road with cones into one lane. ONE GUY WAS USING A REMOTE COMPUTER OPERATED VEHICLE TO FIX IT. All the other guys did not need to be there? It was very odd.

Drove to Bunkerville and walked the dogs. PBJR was quite animated and skipping, sprinting, and galloping. We kept her off the leash and she was ahead of us the whole time. 

While munching on grass and running, Tater was also in a good mood. Riley ran around after birds and barking. 

We gave them water and loaded them in the car. 

Then we drove to the Info Center by way of Riverside Drive. The dogs are quite learning the way we are driving now. They watch for turns. 

We walked them around the Info Center. Riley barked. Tater did rolls in the grass. We again gave them water and drove around Taco Bell to see if they were open. SOME IDIOT OLD MAN WAS WALKING THRU THE DRIVE THRU AND DID NOT SEE US. HE FINALLY LOOKED UP AND JUMPED OUT OF THE WAY.

They were not open, but I wanted a burrito. We drove to Del Taco via the Interstate. Ordered bacon burritos. I had to analyze mine, of course, and Hubby was quite put-off by me opening my burrito and looking at it. I had accidentally bitten into a piece of gummy, undone bacon and did not know what it was. Looked like chicken. Hubby was upset. I put down my burrito.

We stopped at Falcon Ridge Car Wash to wash the car from the mud and debris we got while driving thru the broken water main.

We drove home and let the dogs out. I put them outside. Stupid Stuart had to race out the door. I had Hubby come help me get him. Thank goodness, I grabbed him under a bush. 

Hubby watched TV. I did bookwork. 

Hubby left at 8:30AM for the shop in the Jeep. He almost forgot to drive around the long-way to avoid the broken water main mud & water at Hardy. 

Hubby called me on his drive to work.

I did bookwork. I put away clean clothes. I put away clean dishes. I AM TIRED. 

USPS delivered some boxes. NONE of the dogs barked at the doorbell.

Hubby texted me to do a charge card for a customer.
