HAIR & Craft Show

SUNDAY

Made latte for hubby. Got the dogs ready & went for a one hour walk around the park on a new path. Saw a bicyclist riding thru the park.

Then we came home and unloaded dogs. While I changed, hubby took Bud & Isabelle with him to the dump.

When they returned we packed Bud up in the truck & left.

Drove to Rathdrum to get sausage biscuits at McDonalds because we were both hungry. We ran out of eggs to make breakfast sandwich. Plus, Bud was overwhelmingly eager to eat a biscuit... or two.

Then we kept driving to Spokane. Got there super early, so we stopped at Big R to get Deer Fud and other misc. things that hubby needed. Bud got a lot of attention (as usual).

We decided to drive to KRN's espresso stand to get drinks, but hubby called Don and had to pick up axles RIGHT THEN. Because Don was not returning until 3pm. Hubby had difficulty getting Don to hear him on the phone. Don is almost deaf. So we had to RUSH up to Don's to pick up axles, then RUSH back to drop me off at Hair Salon.

Dominic was 10 minutes late at Hair Salon. I almost thought he would not show up. He said something about getting a "second job" and he was there until then. Supposedly, he is cutting all his costs so that he can purchase an electric car in about 1 year. He is still without a cell phone. His life just keeps getting weirder.

Hubby went to KRN's stand to get lattes and walk Bud. He brought back latte for me & Dominic.

Got my hair done by 1:30. By 2:00, we were at Craft Show at Fairgrounds. Craft show was BORING. Same old stuff there that was WAY too expensive. Almost nobody was leaving with anything. It was very expensive to get inside too, $7 this year per person.

Made the rounds in the whole place in 20 minutes. Also bought two pies, one cherry & one pumpkin for Thanksgiving.

On the drive back home, hubby was hungry and had to spend a Gift Certificate he had in his billfold. He decided we should eat at Outback. The one at the Spokane Valley Mall was almost empty, but they had a huge family come in just before us. The hostess left her station to go set up the tables, and we were waiting for over 10 minutes. We decided to leave because if they had no wait staff or manager to help, that meant they did not have adequate help to even manage to serve anybody.

Stopped at Stateline to get gasoline. I gave Bud water & walked him.

We drove to CDA to eat at the Outback there. Fast service and only 5 people in the whole entire restaurant!

Food was adequate. Not great.

Bud waiting patiently for us and was rewarded with a few pieces of filet.

We then had to go to Wendy's to get cheeseburgers for the dogs. Everybody there fawned over Bud! Love him.

Then we stopped at Albertson's to get eggs & eggnog for hubby's lattes. We got lots of Thanksgiving food for Thursday.

Hubby realized he left his leather jacket at Outback so we had to drive all the way back to get it. He is just like a little kid leaving things everywhere!

On the way, we saw several houses with Xmas lights already & a couple with inflatable turkeys.

Neighbors at Sienna Loop went overboard with lights. Two houses already have Xmas lights up. One house added a bunch of new decor to their home. Suppose we have to put our lights out, too.

Unloaded groceries at home, fed dogs their cheeseburgers. Closed up house that was absolutely cold. It had rained.

Settled down to watch Walking Dead. That show is SO stupid.

Went to bed early at 9:30.


MONDAY

Rain Rain and More Rain.

We woke up at 5:30 this morning because we went to bed too early! It was raining the whole night.

Made breakfast sandwich & latte for hubby. He also took a banana and orange for snacking.

I tided up after he was gone. Made beds. Did laundry & dishes.

Bud naps. We tired him out yesterday.

I LOVE kissing that pink belly!

Maggie is Adorable.

Sewed up a burlap pillow cover.

Then I made Apple Brown Betty for hubby.

Apple Brown Betty

Made Puppy Chow for KRN to take over for Thanksgiving.

Puppy Chow

I took Bud, Isabelle & Maggie down with me to the mailbox to get mail. I fed the deer on the way back. Maggie & Bud wandered off into the woods. They both came RUNNING back when I called. Maggie is a good dog.

When I returned to the house, I decided to light up some of the Christmas lights. It took me over 1.5 hours in the pouring rain to get the lights on the garage lit up, and some of the trees in the circle. One tree in the circle is totally NOT lighting at all. Will have to take down the lights & purchase more. Then some of the other lights on the trees are burnt out. Poo. I took our life-size Snowman and put him out in the circle.

I was exhausted by the time I came into the house at 3:00pm. It was getting dark.

So to warm up the house, I made No Bake Cookies for hubby to take to work.

Watched a little TV.

Called hubby to bring home pizza for dinner. He got home at 6:30. Watched HIMYM on TV, then he went to shop for 1.5 hours. After he got done, he came home & we went to bed.
