5th Day of Spring Break

TUESDAY
3-31-2015

This blows. Another night without sleep.

Got up at 6:30 and made breakfast for dogs. Made egg sandwich for hubby.

It was cold; only 40 degrees outside.

Hubby got the part number on the fireplace finally. It has been forever since that thing has worked.

Hubby left at 7:00. I did laundry & dishes.

Sent $ via Paypal to Matt & Heather to pay for KRN's ticket to Hawaii.

I cannot get warm. It started raining outside. This Spring break sucks.

It was fairly boring today.

Got ready to go to nail appointment. Left at 3:15 and went to Mr Tire in Athol & met Eldon. Paid hubby's bill of $160. Then drove to Rathdrum for nails. Had to sit for a while. Talked to Wendy and her customer about massage class.

Nails done with Rhonda from 4:15-5:15.

 Easter Bunny Pink nails

Then left to go home. Stopped at Stein's Grocery to pick up garlic bread & lasagne for dinner. Got bones for dogs.

Came home and unloaded groceries. Gave bones to dogs. They were happy.

Made dinner - Lasagne with Garlic Bread. Hubby home early. Had dinner. He helped me put out the deck chairs.

Watched TV; last episode of Cougar Town. Was depressing.

Massaged hubby from 8:30-9:30. Went to bed after the news.

4th Day of Spring Break

MONDAY
3-30-2015

I did not hear hubby leave for work today. I was still asleep. Thank goodness.

Finally got some sleep after drinking TWO cups of Chamomille & Lavender tea, taking 2 herbal sleep pills and a Unisom.

I slept until 9:30 when the birds kept banging on the side of the house. We will need to go to the marina tonight to get our owls there and bring them back here to hang up. I getting tired of the birds banging on the cedar siding.

Did laundry. Fed fish. Had violent diarrhea. Was dizzy and still tired. Did dishes & put them away. Drug dog beds out to the porch so they could sleep on them in the sun.

Was a nice day. Opened up the doors. Put on my shorts.

Hubby came home after 2 hours OT, then we raced to load the dogs in the Excursion and took them for a walk in the park. It was dark by the time we got down there, but it was a nice spring night walk. Saw some stars in the sky.

Drove to Bayview Marina to pick up our owls thinking that they will be able to keep the birds away from the house.

Came back home. I made spaghetti. Watched iZombie shows. Went to bed at 10:30 after the news.

3rd Day of Spring Break

SUNDAY
3-29-2015

I did not sleep at all last night. I was up at 1:00 and 2:30 to pee. KRN was still texting to somebody so she was not sleeping, either.

At 6:30, I got up and made egg breakfast for dogs. Started laundry. Filled water bowls with fresh water. Made egg sandwich for hubby. Fed fish. Made bacon.

KRN came down and I made scrambled egg, toast, 1 piece of bacon, and tea for her.

We got dogs ready and loaded. Went to get lattes in Athol. Walked dogs down by the sewage treatment plant in the park.

Got home and KRN left to return home with Bravo.

Hubby oiled the doors on the Excursion. I took the stickers off the window inside.

Hubby tried to shoot the little bird that keeps banging on our house.

I did 6 loads of laundry. Put the sheets on the massage table. Put away dishes.

We watched Super Troopers & Top Gear. I put my hands in the paraffin bath and relaxed for 15 minutes. Ate my pita that hubby had gotten me.

At 1:30, we decided to load all the dogs in the Excursion and go over to pick up the axles at Don & Lucille's. We forgot to take Lucille's plant that I had bought her.

Drove to CDA and picked up some Chamomille and Lavender sleep tea at Pilgrim's Market on 4th. Then we drove to the Farmer's home on Prairie to pick up deer food.

Went to Don & Lucille's in Spokane and picked up axles. Did not have much time to talk with Lucille. Hubby wanted to eat. So he drove to 5 Guys Burgers the back way thru town. Dogs barked at people & other dogs. Was a really nice afternoon. Very warm. Still cloudy, but nice enough to have the windows rolled down.

After 5 Guys, we drove the back way along the Spokane River to Walmart at Stateline. We got some groceries and vinegar for the septic system.

Decided to not pick up dog burgers. Instead we came home and unloaded everything. Hubby fed the deer. We watched The Walking Dead and The Talking Dead. This was the Season Finale and was 90 minutes long. Then I watched 1/2 of The Good Wife. I went to bed because I was SO tired.

2nd Day of Spring Break

SATURDAY
3-28-2015

Got up at 7AM and made breakfast for dogs. Made egg sandwich for hubby.

 Bud & Lil Bit waiting to go for a walk

In Athol, got lattes. Hubby and I took dogs down to the park for a walk.

It had rained, but was now clearing.

Walked dogs down in the campgrounds to keep from getting rained on again.

By the time we got home, KRN was there. We loaded dogs up a 2nd time for a walk in the park. Left Maggie at home so she would not get too tired.

Walked in the park down by the Brig Museum. It was a fun walk. KRN was very animated talking about her upcoming new adventures.

We drove back home. Unloaded dogs. Hubby went down to the shop to work. KRN & I got changed and ready to go into town.

Drove to town in the Jeep. KRN was already getting tired and not talking very much. She wanted food, so we drove thru Del Taco and got something. KRN ate it in the car. She got a turkey burrito.

We shopped at Fred Meyer's to get yoga pants for me. I found a pair for $59; very expensive. But they fit. KRN got shorts.

Then we got car washed at the Hippo Car wash. The other car wash on Kathleen was closed.

Were going to get deer food at Big R, but half of their parking lot was being torn up and there were too many people there. Could not get a parking place.

Drove to Office Depot. KRN stayed in the car while I went inside to look for an appointment book. But they did not have anything. Looks to me like they will be going out of business soon. Shelves are not very full at all.

Stopped at Wendy's for dog burgers.

Drove home. KRN went to take a nap. I unloaded the car and put everything away. Did some laundry. Went upstairs to cover KRN up, but she already had a blanket. Instead, I pulled the mini blinds down to give her some darkness to nap.

KRN got up at 5:00 when hubby came home. He was beeping the horn on the Excursion. We went to Rathdrum to eat at the Oriental place there. Heard kids playing in the other room which was annoying. Then the food was not as good as usual. Too much sweetness.

We boxed everything up and came home.

I did an exfoliation on KRN then did a 55 minute massage on her. She watched tv with us for a while. A very BAD Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Fighter movie. Then she went to bed.

Hubby and I went to bed later after news.

At 1:00, I got up to potty and saw that KRN was texting somebody in the middle of the night. She worries me.

1ST DAY OF SPRING BREAK

First day of spring break. I can't wake up when hubby leaves.

The birds tapping on the side of the house wakes me up at 7AM. Lil Bit wants to get petted and dances around on the bed. Ben has already jumped up and is sleeping next to me.

I get up and give pieces of ham to dogs. Then I put away dishes. I start a load of laundry. I wash my  hair.

I called the pharmacy to refill hubby's prescription. I called Kootenai Electric to find out about our replacing our light. I called Aron, the guy from the Air Force from the hospital the other night to see if KRN can get any help. I pay bills.

Met hubby & Dave 2.0 at The Cabin restaurant in Post Falls. I had an omelette. Rushed to get to my appointment at 2:30. Got my Brazilian Blowout done by 4:30.

Stopped to see KRN painting Sarah's house in Spring Hill suburb in Post Falls. Very nice home.

Drove home and unloaded everything. Fed burgers to dogs. I was exhausted.

Hubby came home late after working 2 hours OT.

TODAY IS THE DAY.

I woke up at 5AM to pee. Laid in bed after that.

Hubby's alarm woke us at 6AM and we stayed in bed for a few minutes to hug each other and pet the Lil Bit who slept in bed with us last night!

Got up and made eggs for dogs, egg sandwich for hubby.

Hubby watched the news until 7AM when he left.

I started getting ready for school. Ironed my shirts, put camera & tripod in car, put purse in car. Put on make-up. Did my hair. Studied for a while. My brain is going to burst.

Going thru the procedure in my head.

Check in, see what room you have. Get towels & wet them. Put them in the Cabi. Get cream. Take Class picture. Sit with teacher in room until 10:30.

Go upstairs, get client. Greet client by name & welcome them. Ask if they have ever had massage before. Take them to the room. Ask CCRIMP health questions. Instruct client to undress, take off jewelry & rings, put cell phones on silent, lay face down on bed under the covers with their head in the face cradle.

Leave room.

Return to room. Start massage. Massage for 55 minutes.

Don't forget to put BOLSTERS & HOT TOWEL ON FACES BEFORE MASSAGING NECK & HEAD. Don't forget to put pillow case over client's eyes when they roll over. & Remove the face cradle.

At end of massage ask client to gently get off table and dress. Ask if they would like a glass of water.

Thank client for coming. Give them a card and escort them to the stairs. Put linens in laundry hamper.

So I leave at 9:00 and get to Clinic by 9:30. Have to follow a REALLY slow truck pulling a trailer going 35-40 ALL the WAY DOWN HWY 41! OMG. Fucking people.

Arrive at school and I am the first one there. I have forgotten my holster. Stephanie lets me borrow one.

We take our first class Formal Pic. I have brought my camera and tri-pod. Stephanie takes the pics! I think I will get them professional printed and hand them out to everybody.

I left school and went to get a couple pitas at Pita Pit. Then I stopped for gasoline at the station on the corner. Then I washed the Jeep. I called KRN to find out how she was feeling. She said that she was at Hala's house.

I drove to Rathdrum and picked up a latte to celebrate. Then I stopped at McDonalds to get burgers for the dogs.

At home, I unloaded everything and washed my uniform shirt.

I fed deer. I ate my pita. I refreshed all the dog water & food. I opened the doors because it was 59 degrees by the time I came home.

Very Warm Today

Hubby had to work 2 hours OT, so he came home by 7:00. Dogs were excited to see him. We watched Archer. Hubby fell asleep on the couch. Went to bed at 10:00. It was a boring night.

I did not sleep very well tonight. Was a very light sleep. I was completely exhausted, tho.

BACK TO SCHOOL

WEDNESDAY
3-25-2015

Hubby got up and left for work at 6:00. I slept until 8:00. I slept. OMG. That was wonderful.

I got ready for school. Put all my stuff in the Jeep.

Left at 9:15. I am very nervous about going back after missing a day. I wanted to have perfect attendance.

I am freaking out because I do not know what they did yesterday. Do not know if there will be a test today.

Gave bones to the dogs before I left.

Got to school and brought in all my bedding and books.

Katie C was there and asked if I needed a hug. I broke down and started crying. Told her about what had happened. I did not think that I was that emotional. Panda got hankies for me. It was really very sweet that everybody cared so much.

I got a pita at Pita Pit on the way home. Texted KRN that I was headed home so she could come get Beebo.

Then I came home. Got the mail. A package had been attempted delivery, but required a signature. So I drove down to Athol Post Office and picked up the package. Then I stopped off at the Vet to get Ben's new license. Purchased a 3 year license for him; talked to Maggie behind the desk.

Came home and gave dogs some ham. Beebo was super excited.

I did all the laundry from today. Put everything away. Got the dishes done and put them away.

I am exhausted.

Kids came at 6:30 to pick up the dog.

Panicked at trying to get the IR Nikon remote to work because the battery is dead. Stupid crap.

Texted hubby to get a new battery at Batteries Plus. He was at KFC getting chicken.

MONDAY DAY OFF/ TUESDAY NOT A GOOD DAY

monday
3-23-2015

I got up when hubby turned on the light downstairs. It was 6:00 and he was getting ready for work. I went downstairs to make breakfast for dogs and an egg sandwich for hubby.

After he left, I took a hot bath. It was raining and cold outside.

Tried taking a nap on the couch, but woke up a headache.

I really did not want to study today. Had a horrible headache all day.

Ordered parts from Summit Racing for hubby.

I did laundry, did dishes.

Went out to feed the deer. They ran away when I went out, but came back later to eat the apples I put out for them. Took another bath around 5:30. 

Waited for hubby to get home.

Hubby got home later after working for an hour.

He had just had dinner and sat down on the couch to watch tv for a while. I was getting ready to give him a massage for practice.

Hubby answered his phone, MN was calling on both his work phone & personal phone. He missed the first call, but answered the second. He got upset and did not want to tell me what was happening. Then he said that KRN was at a hospital in Spokane and we had better get there quickly.

We got dressed and turned off the heaters, took the Jeep. I drove while he was upset and started crying. So I yelled at him to get himself together. We found out what hospital she was taken to in Spokane. Mark & Tami were going there also. Sam, a friend of M&K's was there, she had Bravo in her car. They arrived first and there were also two reps from the Air Force base to help us. KRN saw her dad first, then I sat with Sam and one of the Air Force reps.

I went back to see KRN when hubby came out to get me. Then we sat with her until 12:30 at night. Hubby went to get some awful food from XXX.

We finally got her into a transfer unit called Calispell House. She stayed there the night. We were driving home with Bravo and walked him at Krispy Kreme Donuts (who were NOT open at 2AM), KRN called us and wanted us to come back and pick her up. But we convinced her to stay where she was for just the night.


tuesday
3-24-2015

By 9AM, we were already on the road going over to Spokane. We went to KRN's house first to clean up and start laundry. We went to pick her up. I sat in the Jeep while hubby went inside to collect her at Calispell House.

It seemed to take about an hour before hubby came back out with KRN. He had talked to her Dr. Then we stopped at Einstein's Bagels and got breakfast sandwiches along with lattes.

Drove to KRN's house. She sat on the couch while we did more laundry. Watched TV. Ate breakfast sandwiches.

Kept KRN company all day. Took a long nap. I got up while they were still asleep to do more laundry. Then we played a Family Guy Trivia Game. KRN got tired and went to bed. We watched the latest Blacklist on her tv. Then MN came home at 11:30. We went home.

Got home at 12:30. Cleaned up and turned on heat. Gave dog pieces of ham for treats. Then we went to bed at 1:00AM.

SUNDAY - MUD TREATMENT

SUNDAY
3-22-2015

Got up at 7AM and made egg breakfast for the dogs; made egg sandwich for hubby.

I got ready and loaded everything in the Jeep along with hubby's help. Linens, blanket, towels, and books.

Left for school.

Got to school at 9:30.

The treatment is not very special and I would not recommend it. The mud is not very hot even though it was sitting in the hot cabi for quite a while. The mud goes on and quickly becomes cold and sticky thru the plastic. You are then wrapped up for warmth, but it feels awful and muddy.

We all clean up. Then leave for home.

I texted hubby that I was coming home. He wanted pizza. He tried calling it into Spirit Lake pizza, but they were closed. So I turned around and drove back to Rathdrum to get pizza there. To kill time, I stopped and got milk at Stein's grocery. I also picked up a latte at Jitterz. I was very thirsty and had already drank all my green tea.

Came home around 3:45 finally and ate pizza with hubby. Dogs got leftovers. Then we took the dogs for a walk in the park down by the Brig Museum.

Maggie hanging out the window at the park

Maggie did not do very well. She was hurting and her left leg was bothering her. She was also lagging behind and forgetting where we were going. At one point, she stopped and looked at us like she did not recognize us.

She cried when hubby tried to lift her into the Excursion.

Came home and it started raining. We watched Walking Dead and The Good Wife. Went to bed at 11:00 after the news. I could not sleep all night. Just laid in bed unable to sleep. It was awful.

WEEKEND SATURDAY

SATURDAY
3-21-2015

Woke up from a nightmare that hubby's penis had been chewed off by a rat and hubby bled to death. Awful dreams from sleeping pills - mostly Unisom. Yuck.

Hubby was already up and downstairs watching tv. Bud was sitting with him on the couch. Lil Bit came upstairs to wake me up, but I put him in the bed and he settled down. I finally got up to pee and then had to make eggs for dogs & egg sandwich for hubby.

I fell asleep on the couch again because it was raining and we could not walk dogs. I finally woke up at 9:30 and got ready. We took the dogs to the park in the new Excursion. Had to put the leashes from the Dodge into it; put Lil Bit's blanket on the console; put license plates on it; and then put Park tags on it. Finally ready to go.

Walked in the park around the sewage treatment area. Maggie's left rear leg was bothering her, gave out from her when she tried to pee.

We got loaded and came home. Detoured down Clagstone to see where the fire burn was the other day.

Hubby burned the pit.

Burning the pit

Unloaded dogs at home. Hubby went to work at the shop.

I cleaned up Ben's vomit that he had done before we left. I cleaned the front windows from all the dog spittle. I vacuumed the living room rug.

We went into town to get gas at Costco. Saw a beautiful rainbow.

Bird knocking on the side of the house woke me up.

Gave dogs their morning piece of ham.

Cleaned up dog water & food. Fed fish.

Cleaned house. Vacuumed bedrooms. Ben had torn open his comforter, so there was down floating everywhere in his bedroom.

Lost my phone and had texted hubby & KRN to call me. Finally, I remembered that I had it last in the Jeep when I had driven down to the shop to see who was driving into the yard.

Watched videos of massaging. I don't retain anything. I can't remember what I just watched. Tried to study the bones in the body.

Skeleton doing the "Captain Morgan pose"

Birds knocking on the sides of the house all day long. Spring is here. Whoppie.

Fed the deer & fed the fish. Made sure dogs had clean water & fresh food for the day.

Took the Krispy Kreme 12 donuts in a box with me.

Left at 8AM; drove thru dense FOG today. Almost nobody had on their headlights. A white truck crossing Diagonal did not have his lights on, and it was very difficult to see it. I was going to stop at Jitterz in Rathdrum for a latte because I did not sleep well last night, but there were 4 cars in line on each side. So no time to wait there.

Instead, I stopped at a place in Post Falls-Kokopelli. Drink was OK. Not great.

View from AICM of FOG rolling across Post Falls

At school, I unloaded my drink & donuts.

We took our Quiz today and everybody seemed to do better. I got 100% again. Katie said to the whole room that she deserved a Gold Star, so I pulled out my gold stars from my folder and gave her one, then had to pass them down for everybody to have a gold star!

We cleaned the tables and took them down. Then we left. No test; have to return on Sunday for Mud from 9-3. Ick. Really long day again just like last Sunday and no walk for puppies.

Drove to Pita Pit and picked up a pita. Stopped to wash the car at the Car Wash Plaza even tho there were dark clouds in the sky.

Picked up McDonalds cheeseburgers for the dogs on the way home thru Rathdrum.

Got home and fed burgers to dogs. Unloaded car. Started doing laundry.

Hubby worked OT tonight for 2 hours. He got home after 6:30. We watched Archer. Then hubby fell asleep on the couch. I took a bath and the new sleeping pill. We went to bed at 9:30.

Enjoyed talking to Lucille. Then we went to Taco John's Drive thru and got some tacos for hubby. We drove to Krispy Kreme to pick up donuts for tomorrow. We ate in the parking lot there. Drove thru the Best Buy parking lot. Some stupid parents allowed their stupid little kid to run out of the store into the parking lot and never even tried to get the kid. Almost ran over him. Then parents finally walked out. We just stared at them.

Drove home. Gave snacks to dogs.

Cleaned up dog water. Watched Shitt's Creek & news, then went to bed.

At 1:30 in the morning, I was still awake. So I got up to pee, take a Unisom and an allergy pill. That finally put me out after a while.

90 MINUTE MASSAGE

tuesday
3-17-2015

Got up at 7AM after a long night of no sleep in bed. This is killing me. Hubby had already gotten up before 6AM and left at 6:30.

Cold, dismal, and grey today. Only 38 degrees when I got up.

We are supposed to be at school from 9-1 today to make up for the day we missed when the teacher was sick.

I got ready and put everything together by the door. Studied some more. Left the TV on for the dogs. Fed the fish.

Had to drive back. Forgot books on counter.

Then hubby called & I had forgotten tea on counter. Decided to skip it and get lattes in Rathdrum instead. Mistake. It caused diarrhea later.

I saw a puppy in the window of a truck at the latte stand. It made me sad that I could not stay home and be with my puppies today.

That is Heather (Graaskamp) in the pic.

At school we did exfos.

The two trucks from Thursday were there setting up furnaces still. Banging and making lots of noise all thru our exfos & massages.

Then it was time for an enforced 30 minute lunch. Everybody stayed but Nick & Ken. They went to get Taco Bell.

Then we were finally finished. Got to leave 30 minutes early.

Left school after reading the white board.

We need to be quiet

I went to Rathdrum and picked up dog burgers from McDonalds. Got take-out oriental at the Restaurant there. Hubby had called in the order.

All the dogs were on the deck when I got home. It warmed my heart to come home to all those happy faces. Ate our oriental food. Gave burgers to dogs.

Hubby had an upset stomach, so he waited til 5:00 when we took dogs to the park for a walk.

We walked dogs in park down by the campground area. It was raining slightly.

At Bayview, we saw 6 deer near the edge of the road.

No ducks in Bayview. It started raining harder.

Went home and got warmed up. I did laundry. Cleaned up dishes from hubby's making beans for lunch. He had gassy farts all afternoon.

We watched TV, Darby O'Gill and the Little People then I massaged hubby for an hour. Just on his back. He did not want to roll over & let me work on his front because he gets bad cramps.

I was sweating by the time we were finished.

Came upstairs and watched Walking Dead & Talking Dead. Then watched The Good Wife.

Maggie came up to bed early.

Went to bed. But I could not sleep because of coming off the Ambien, hubby snoring, Maggie snoring. I got up at 1AM to have diarrhea and take 1 allergy pill. Then I finally slept.


MONDAY
3-16-2015

I could not possibly wake up at 6AM when hubby got out of bed. Allergy pills really make me pass out. Ben jumped on bed with me. Then Lil Bit came in and wanted up. So I put him on the bed and went back to sleep. Birds pecking on sides of house finally woke me up. I beat on the wall & opened the window to get rid of them.

Hubby called me at 9:30 to wake me up.

I did more laundry. Gave ham pieces to the dogs.

Washed & conditioned my hair. Felt like crap all day. Still tired.

But my shoulder does not hurt. Good thing I got massaged yesterday.

Got to BB&B a little early so I waited for KRN to arrive. She was driving the Challenger.

We shopped at BB&B, they did not have the twin set sheets I wanted. But I got towels.

Then we stopped at Petco to look at dog Kennels for KRN to ship Bravo to Hawaii.

We took my Jeep and went to Walgreens. I picked up rubbing alcohol, Cold Calm, and a green hat for St. Patrick's Day.

Then KRN was hungry so we went to Olive Garden and had All You Can Eat Salad, Breadsticks & Soup. I mostly ate the soup and ordered some Asparagus with Basalmic Vinegar reduction.

We drove to Sally Beauty Supply afterwards. I got some cuticle cream. Then I drove KRN back to her car. We hugged and both left.

We discussed skin conditions today.

We were done with class a little early and left. I went to get a Pita at Pita Pit. Yum.

Then I washed my car at the Car Plaza. However, it only soaped & blow dryed. I tried to find somebody but there was nobody for service even tho a car parked in front of the office door.

I drove to Rathdrum and was a little early for my appointment. 1:45 to 3:50 for my appointment for my hair. But I love the color that she did. She put an overall color to hide the greys and matched it to the dark growing out. Then she put highlights into it all over. Very pretty but quite a change.

Drove home fast to take care of the puppies. Gave them ham pieces. Fed the deer. Refilled the dog water bowls. Took Lil Bit with me.

Drove fast to Frontier. Hubby was waiting for me, talking to Brad. I loaded everything into the Red Dually. We went to get a drink at Daybreak Coffee at the corner of Prairie.

We drove to Worley so that hubby could pick up a truck. The kid was really nice. Had a dog similar to our old Harriet. The dog was named Marley. I played with her for quite a while. We did not have dog bones in the truck, but I found meat sticks in hubby's truck so that she could have a treat. Could not let Lil Bit down to play with her because I was scared he would run away. The house was in disrepair, but the area was beautiful. A big mountain right behind the house. A tractor was working the field right behind and making dust everywhere from the dry field.

Got going at 6:30. Came back to Coeur d'Alene. Hubby dropped me off at the yard to pick up my Jeep. We drove home.

Dinner for me at home tonight.

Chicken, Onions, Tomatoes, Spinach, Pineapple, Feta Cheese

Hubby was at the shop for a while. I gave ham pieces to the dogs once I got home. Changed their water again.

Hubby got home at 9PM. We watched a little tv, hubby had dinner. Went to bed at 10:00.

Teacher Surprise Day

WEDNESDAY
3-11-2015

Got up after a horrible night sleeping. Lots of nightmares. Anxiety. Hot and Cold. Night terrors. It was awful.

Detoxing from Ambien pills. I am going to cancel my Dr. appointment because I don't want to be on these pills anymore.

Deer were out feeding this morning early. We watched them.

Made eggs for dogs. Made egg sandwich for hubby. Hubby left and I went out to feed deer the apples I had cut up. Also gave them fresh water.

I studied for my quiz today. Got dressed & ready for school.

Drove to Rathdrum and picked up a latte. I needed some coffee to wake up. Got to school by 9:32. I was the first one there.

We had a couple breaks; then they took us on a guided tour upstairs to find out where our clients might be waiting for their treatments.

After the class voting to come in 1 hour early next week to make up for the 3 hours when Teacher was sick, we left at 12:50.

I drove home. Picked up junk mail at the mailbox. Fed ham to the dogs. Made pita lunch for myself. Took a hot bath. I am exhausted, but cannot take a nap.

Called the Dr's office and canceled my appointment.

Dogs were happy to sleep in the sunshine today.

Back To School Day

TUESDAY
3-10-2015

Back to school & back to work. I was restless all night so was exhausted and not able to get up at 6AM. Hubby left by 6:30 trying to yell at me to wake up.

I texted him at 7:00 and told him I was up.

Got ready for school. Did my makeup. Put a load of laundry in to wash. Put all the dirty dishes in dishwasher.

Fed the deer who were out there waiting for food. Gave them some apples.

Made sure fish were fed. Put out clean water for dogs.

Left at 9AM for school.

We went on a tour and the Clinic supervisor showed us the facilities for the clinic and where things were located.

Just before the end of class, we went over the quiz for tomorrow.

When we got outside, it was a wonderfully warm day. Highs in the 60s. Left class at 1PM.

I drove to Rathdrum and picked up a latte. Went to get my nails done. Had Rhonda put the gel polish in a light pink back on. Got a Paraffin dip.

Stopped at McDonalds to get burgers for dogs.

At home, I gave burgers to dogs and unpacked my books from school.

I started a load of dishes; made a pita for myself, made some tea. Gave dogs fresh water.

Gave Lil Bit a bath.

Hubby got home and stopped off at the shop. I took Ben down with me to see him. Ben played with Jack. The dogs tore around, running and panting after each other. It really made Ben tired when we got home. I drove the Grey dodge and hubby drove up his red dually.

We watched TV and had dinner.

Even though I was really tired, hubby would not go to bed with me until after the 10:00 news. I did not take a sleeping pill. By the time I got into bed, I was trying to sleep but had a really bad night.

Hubby Vacation Day

MONDAY
3-9-2015

Got up at our usual time. I made eggs for dogs and an egg sandwich for hubby. We got ready and took them to the park to walk. We went down by the sewage treatment plant area. It was still chilly and the sun felt good. A little breeze was blowing.

Great day being with hubby.

Took bread to ducks to feed, but there were not as many ducks there. Just two small ducks that ate some of the food.

By 10:30, we came home and left keys in the dually for Kevin Reese to pick up. Left the dogs at home. While I was backing the Jeep out of the garage, the UPS lady came and dropped off a package. We went to Country Boy Cafe to eat breakfast. But I looked at the UPS package and it was not for us! We brought it back to the house after breakfast so the UPS lady could pick it up again.

Went to CDA to try on Dansko shoes for me at Tri-State Outfitters. I found out my size. But I wanted a different style. Hubby tried on glasses and got a good pair. He has been talking about getting a better pair of sunglasses for quite a while.

Then we drove to Rathdrum, got a drink for him at Jitterz. Saw Heather Graaskamp after leaving the Espresso stand, get into her truck and talked to her there.

We drove to McDonalds and got burgers for the dogs. Then we went to get groceries at Super1. Got lottery tickets.

Came home and got mail. The t-shirt blanket had arrived! I dropped hubby at the shop because there was a woman there and a sheriff's car that had pulled in.

I put everything away at home. Then walked down to see what was going on with the shop. Lady had stopped because she had lost her dogs. Sheriff was a friend of hubby's that had stopped to say hello.

We came back to the house. Hubby opened his t-shirt package. It is just wonderful. A great blanket. Huge and warm. Hubby fixed his strawberries that he had purchased.

T-Shirt Quilt

Then he went back to the shop and unloaded the dually of all the parts the guys had purchased at the Swap Meet.

Hubby took the Excursion to the shop to air up the tires.

I took Ben with me down to see hubby and rode my bike. Hubby filled the tires on my bike so I can start riding. Ben played with the dog down there.

Hubby came up to the house to get the Excursion so he could change the leaky tires. He took it down to the shop.

I came back and did some minor household chores. Then went back on my bike to the shop with Bud. Hubby was just getting done. He walked up with us. Bud ran back to the house & was on the deck already.

We had dinner. Watched The Walking Dead. Watched Just Call Saul. I am getting into that show a little bit. It takes time to watch it. Not a really funny show, just odd. Really upset about Walking Dead because they said only 3 more shows this season. BOO!

Went to bed at 10:00 after using depilatory on my legs. It burnt a little so I washed it off in the tub right away.

Hubby came to bed around midnight. I had to yell at him again because I could hear the TV and see lights on still.

I did not get good sleep. Hot/Cold, had to pee, just restless all night.

Sunday - Puyallup Swap Meet

SUNDAY
3-8-2015

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME

Got up this morning and was shocked to see that "somebody" had plugged my iPhone in to the outlet upstairs by our bed. I must have been riding the Ambien Walrus last night.

Hubby texted me and said "good morning".

Fed the fish.

Made eggs for the dogs. Had to feed Ben by myself while the other dogs were eating. Cleaned everything up and started the dishwasher.

I got up and started turning all the clocks forward. Spring Forward Fall Behind!

Decided to go into Pita Pit and get a pita. Will walk dogs when I return.

It is already sunny outside. Filled my car with gas at the station by Albertson's. Some panhandler came up to me asking for money while I was at the pump.

Stopepd to get Pita. Then stopped at Walgreens for poligrip and see if they had a hair stick. No hair sticks. Boo.

At home, I put apples outside for the deer. Refilled their grain.

I walked all the dogs today; First Ben down to Clagstone. Then Bud all the way around Sienna Loop. We passed a woman running with her dog, another woman walking 2 dogs, talked to a homeowner with a german accent, and passed another couple that was out walking.

At home, Bud was exhausted. Drank lots of water. I took a break, then went for a short walk with Maggie & Lil Bit. Maggie is getting slower all the time. She is tired. So we came back early.

I took a shower and conditioned my hair at 2PM. Am exhausted.

Rented the two Hunger Games movies - Catching Fire and Mocking Jay Part 1 on iPad from Amazon Prime. Watched both of them while lying in bed on my heating pad. What a great afternoon.

Later tonight, I watched The Walking Dead.

Went to bed at 10:30. Hubby got home about 11:30. 

Travel Time For Hubby

SATURDAY
3-7-2015

Woke hubby up at 6AM; he rushed to get out of bed because he was supposed to have left by 5AM. He called Larry, who was sitting at the shop in the his car. Hubby dressed quickly and kissed me goodbye then took off in the Red Dually.

Larry had said he knocked on the door, nobody came. Dogs did not bark. He tried calling, nobody answered. So he waited at the end of the driveway.

I got back to bed and relaxed for another hour. Lil Bit rolled on his back with me and I gave him belly kisses.

Got up and gave meat to the dogs. Refreshed all the dog water. Started a load of laundry and a load of dishes.

Picked up more dog poo. I am tired of doing this already, and lots of the poo has not thawed, therefore it is still frozen to the ground.

It got up to 60 degrees today. I took Ben for a long walk around the Sienna Loop Subdivision. I really love those houses in that area. Very clean & open homes. 5 acre lots on a paved road.

I came back and took Maggie with Lil Bit for a walk. We walked the opposite way - towards Spirit Lake. Maggie was really dragging by the time we got back.

Rested for a while. Then took Bud for a walk around Sienna Loop. I saw that KRN had called, so I called her back. She was upset because M had finally said he was done. I told her that this was not a surprise. She wanted more sympathy. Like a little kid with a boo-boo. I am done listening to her cry about this. It gave me high blood pressure and a really bad bloody nose the other day.

So she hung up on me. I called hubby to warn him that she was on the war path again. Hubby said they had gotten to Puyallup by NOON; they were already walking around the Fairgrounds. It was supposed to be sunny & highs of 62-65 this weekend in Puyallup. He sounded happy.

Brought Bud home. He was really tired & hanging tongue. I have walked 8 miles today.

I submitted my Scholarship Application for the Successful Hands Grant.

Had some Pita for lunch. Drank tea.

Watched Hunger Games: Catching Fire on iPad with Amazon Prime. Forgot we had that. I don't know if I like seeing a moving on such a small screen.

Continuing Great Poo Pickup of 2015

FRIDAY
3-6-2015

Got up and made eggs for dogs. Made cheese egg sandwich for hubby.

It was 26 degrees outside when we woke up. Much warmer than the 11 degrees the other day.

Hubby said he got an email from JT's Parts, so we went online before he left to check on it. Also applied for an account with Rough Country.

I started laundry after hubby left. Vacuumed rug in living room again. Turned on the heaters because it was cold.

Made cookie bags for the guys that are coming to inspect the VIN on the Excursion.

Baked fish sticks to have something to eat. Gave some to each of the dogs.

Took apples out to feed the deer and filled their bowls with grain.

Fed Ex delivered MCT oil, thought I would try it. Kinda felt clearer thinking.  Also brought my face covers for the massage table.

Went out to pick up dog poo. Was out there for about 45 minutes. Got six bags picked up. Seems like some of the poo is still frozen to the ground and it has not thawed yet.

Hubby called me and said there was a fire burning north on Clagstone. Burnt about 50 acres from 2:45 to 4:10. Bud had howled at the sirens that went by earlier in the afternoon. When I watched him from the window, he turned around and was embarrassed.

Hubby finally got home at 6:45; instead of taking the truck & hauling the vehicle over on a trailer, hubby wanted me to follow him to Spokane in the Jeep. I do not like driving at night. So I was moody & mad. We drove over and met the people at the Cenex Zip Trip on Trent. Then hubby stood talking to them for 20 minutes. Finally he came over and we left. Drove to Spokane Valley Mall to pick up Pita Pit for me. Hubby had AWFUL oriental food. Saw a man there with a cute little 3 year old and a baby in a push cart. He was taking much care with his daughter. Reminded me of the time we had a little happy 3 year old.

Drove to CDA. Got burgers at Wendy's. Dropped hubby off at Pat's (detailers) to pick up the Dodge. I drove home. Hubby called me and said he had to pick up a trailer at some guy's house on Garwood Road. He came home later. I went to bed after taking my pill. Hubby stayed up on the couch. I finally yelled at him to turn off the lights & come to bed.

CLASS CANCELED

THURSDAY
3-5-2015

I was so tired from taking my pills too late last night that I could not wake up. Hubby left at 6:40 and I slept in another 20 minutes.

Got up and gave dogs some sandwich meat. I took a hot bath.

Then I got dressed and went out to feed the deer. Hubby had texted that he saw a couple trying to drink dirty water out of the pond. So I filled a couple buckets with water and took it out to the deer feeding area.

I came back inside and studied for a while.

Then at 9:00 just as I was going to leave for school, (the Registrar) called to say that class was canceled due to the teacher being sick.

So I was really disappointed, but felt relief at having a free day. Totally no tests, no studying, no massaging.

Ordered some black slacks online.

UPS came with a delivery for hubby.

I did several loads of laundry, vacuumed, cleaned the floors. Got a pay-per-view movie Big Hero 6 (which was a boring awful movie).

Put away dishes.

Made an appointment with the Doctor for next Monday at 2:20pm. What a pain in the ass. I WILL run out of sleeping pills and I even started calling when I had 2 weeks worth left.

Tow Truck guy came to get the truck and parts down by the pit. Yippee.

BRINGING IT ALL TOGETHER

WEDNESDAY
3/4/2015

Got up and made eggs for dogs. Made an egg sandwich for hubby.

Cleaned up afterwards. Actually had a whole 30 minutes to sit down and watch the morning news.

Only 11 degrees when we got up today. Brrrr.

Hubby left at 7AM; said he was going to get deer food. I doubt it. He will probably forget.

Then I started getting ready for class. Dressed and put on makeup. Got all my linens together. Studied some more.

Drove to class at 9AM. Got there about 9:30.

I went potty.

My phone started ringing in the other room while I was asking questions; I came back and noticed that the doctor's nurse had called back, finally. I called again, but class was just about to start and I could not wait on hold for her to get to the phone. What a pain in the ass.

So we took about tests about 10:10. I got 100% on my test again.

Then Stephanie said that we would be doing a complete massage and bringing everything together just as if we were massage a client in the clinic.

(our teacher) said no quiz tomorrow because we were going to cover diseases. It would take the whole class.

Thank god. I really need to not study. I am so tired and my brain is mush.

Gathered everything up. I was the last one out of class. Had to go put on my bra in the bathroom.

Then I went to Pita Pit to get a pita. Washed the car at the Car Wash. Drove to Rathdrum and got groceries at Super One.

Came home and some idiot older people in a white truck had to park in our driveway. They were there so long that I drove down in the Jeep to find out what was going on; they had pulled into the whole driveway and backed up in order to turn around. When I pulled alongside them, they would not even roll down their window. Finally, the old man rolled his window down and explained that they were lost. Fucking stupid people! WHY do they have to do a u-turn in our driveway? Do you do that in town? Why do it on our private property?

I came back to the house and gave bones to the dogs. They worked on the bones for a while I unloaded the groceries. I washed my linens & blanket. Put away dishes. Filled the dog food & cleaned their water. Vacuumed up the bone mess everywhere. Took a hot bath because I was hurting everywhere. Went upstairs to lie down on the heating pad at 5:30. Ben came up to take a nap with me. I got up again because I was restless. Turned on all the heaters as it was getting colder & the sun was going down.

Texted hubby to get more deer food.

Hubby finally got home at 7:15. He went down to the shop until 9:15. I had to reserve a room for him at Holiday Inn Express in Puyallup because everybody had backed out that was going to have a room. So he has to pay, regardless yet again.

I was extremely tired. Took my pill at 10:00 and went to bed at 11:00. Watched Schitt's Creek with hubby and some part of CSI: Cyber. I was exhausted. 

TAPOTEMENT DAY

TUESDAY
3-3-2015

Cold out this morning. No snow, tho!

I can't believe it is already the second month of massage class!

Got up and made eggs for dogs; made egg sandwich for hubby. Hubby had to leave early today.

I started getting ready for school. Put in a load of laundry and then it went into the dryer. Cleaned up all the dishes. Got dressed. Put on makeup.

Gathered everything together for class and then put it in the car. Had to still wear my peacoat wool jacket. Cold outside.

Drove to school at 9:00. Got a latte on the way because I was still dizzy and super-tired from taking sleeping pill & melatonin last night. However, I still got real good sleep.

At school by 9:30. Studied.

The Registrar, came in to class and gave us our Monthly Progress reports. The printing on the report was in VERY TINY PRINT. But I got 100% for attendance and am maintaining a 98% grade percentile. So pretty fair.

We did our lesson discussion today about Tapotement.

After class, hubby texted me and met me for lunch at Nate's Pizza. We each got a slice of pizza with the toppings of our choice. Talked together for about an hour. It was a nice interlude. Then hubby went back to work. I went to Sally Beauty supply and wanted to see if they had the new OPI Infinite Shine Lacquer that Rhonda had put on my nails yesterday. But they did not have it yet. Boo. So I got a couple hair conditioners and an ORLY cuticle cream that the salesgirl recommmended. She also had me sign up for a Student Discount with a card. Yippee.
Then I drove home. Gave some ham to the dogs when I got home. Cleaned up their water & food bowls. Put more laundry in washer. Brought in my dirty linens from class and washed them. Put away stuff from dryer. Did a load of dishes. Gave dogs leftover pizza. Typed up study notes. Did a conditioning treatment on my hair after washing it.

Fed the deer.

Another MONDAY

MONDAY
3-2-2015

Got up and made eggs for dogs this morning. Made egg sandwich for hubby.

Hubby left for work at 7AM. He took the Grey Dodge to work.

Woke KRN up at 8:00 and said she had to get ready to go as I was leaving for nail appointment.

She got ready and we left at 8:45; took my Jeep. Stopped at Jitterz in Rathdrum for lattes.

Then drove to Rhonda's for nail appointment at 9:45. I was done by 11:00. Got new Infinite Shine OPI nail polish. Rhonda said similar to a gel. Supposed to stay on longer without chipping.

We drove to Hayden and got honey at the Bee Hive. I suggested KRN should start having honey as she kept sneezing. Maybe early spring weather is activating her pollen allergies.

Drove over to Target to look at underwear. KRN looked at bathing suits. She got a cover up instead. I picked up a couple mascaras. Then we looked at dog toys & yoga pants. KRN got a little upset. So I decided she needed to eat.

We got dog burgers at Arby's. Then went to Qdoba to get burritos. Instead of eating them there, KRN wanted to go home to dogs.

At home, I got the mail. Finally got the rebate check from American Express. Fed the burgers to the dogs. Gave clean water to dogs, put away dishes, put away laundry. KRN was staring at her computer, so I had to remind her to eat. I also put more dishes in dishwasher. Put more laundry in washing machine and dryer. I was exhausted. Had a bite to eat.

Then we went downstairs to massage KRN. Gave her a massage for about 90 minutes. Got to practice quite a few new strokes.

Got done and brought massage linens upstairs to clean. KRN got changed and we both left at 4:00. I took Bud with me, got gasoline in FMF. Then took him to the Vet. KRN went home.

Bud weighs 117 pounds now. He needs to be put on diet.

Came home and typed up questions for quiz tomorrow. Put away more laundry.

Hubby got home after 2 hours OT. He had dinner.

Then I needed some Arnicare rubbed into my back. We went downstairs so I could recline on the massage table. Hubby rubbed the cream into my back. Felt much better.

Hubby wanted a "quickie", so I rubbed his back down only. Probably about 15 minutes on his back only.

Then we came upstairs and watched TV for the rest of the night. Not much on. Hubby fell asleep after a few minutes.

We watched the 10PM news and went to bed. I had to take double the amount of sleeping pills to fall asleep. I was wired. I also had to take some melatonin.

Hubby tried singing and talking to me before I fell asleep. What a nut.

FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY

FRIDAY
FEBRUARY 27, 2015

Got up and made eggs for dogs.  Made egg sandwich for hubby.

Hubby went to work at 7AM.

I did lots around the house. Did about 6 loads of laundry and put them away. Did dishes. Fed fish. Fed deer.

Vacuumed.

Paid bills.

Hubby came home around 6:30PM. He picked me up with Bud & Ben; he had already stopped at Joe's to get the lightweight car trailer. We drove the grey dodge to pick up the Red Dually at Perfection Tire in Rathdrum. Then I followed him in the Grey dodge to the Frontier Lot. Pat met us there so he could fix the rear tail lights on the truck & trailer. Dave 2.0 loaded his Mustang so he could take it to Las Vegas in the morning. Hubby helped tie down the Mustang to the trailer.

I took the dogs for a walk until we were ready to leave.

Hubby and I went to Pita Pit afterwards; I got a pita. Hubby wanted a pizza so we went over to Papa Murphy's and he got a Cowboy pizza.

We came home and baked the pizza in the oven. I ate my Pita.

Went to bed at 9:30PM.




SATURDAY
FEBRUARY 28, 2015

Hubby and I got up and made eggs for dogs. Made egg sandwich for hubby.

Went to Athol and got a latte for hubby.

Took dogs for walk in the park. We were super early getting there so nobody else was in the park. We walked down the Gun Range road. It was windy and a little cold. We saw the Ranger go past us on an ATV.

Went down to Bayview to feed a whole bunch of ducks.

Came home and had to take a truck to Rathdrum, so I followed hubby in my Jeep. We met KRN at Jitterz. She got me a latte.

Drove home. On the way, we stopped at the neighbor's house to get a dozen eggs for $3.00.

Came home. Hubby went to shop. KRN & Bravo spent the day with me.

I gave KRN a massage.

Shared 1/2 of my Chicken Crave Pita with KRN.

Then KRN left at 3:00 to go back to Spokane to meet a friend for dinner.

Hubby came home about 5:30. We watched TV.

KRN stayed at home instead of coming back.

I went to bed at 9:30.


SUNDAY
MARCH 1, 2015

We got up and started making eggs for dogs. Hubby said he did not want an egg sandwich because he would take me out for breakfast.

KRN came back around 8:45AM and brought us lattes from Jitterz.

We took the dogs down to the park for a walk around the campground side down to the museum and thru the woods. Wild turkeys briefly crossed the path in front of us.

Then we went to down Bayview and bought bread. Fed the ducks and Canadian Geese. LOTS of them.

Came back home. Had to go around the long way due to a train stopped on the tracks. I had to pee really bad and urged hubby to speed.

He loaded the garbage in the tan dually while KRN called Matt. Then hubby came back. KRN and I took the jeep while hubby drove the tan dually to CN Diesel. He dropped it off and then we went to The Cabin in Post Falls to have waffles for brunch. It was just about 1:30 by the time we got there. (They stopped serving waffles at 2PM).

KRN got a call from her realtor and received an offer on the house. Not a very good offer, tho.

It was ok food, not great. Waitresses were super skinny. Drugs?

Stopped to fill my Jeep with gas at Stateline.

Went to Pita Pit in Post Falls and got a pita for me so I can eat it tomorrow.

Drove to Rathdrum and got groceries. KRN was going to pick up salmon for us, but it was not the kind she liked to cook. We picked up other groceries. Ran into hubby's Union Rep and he was telling us how to test pineapples. I showed him the proper way.

We picked up burgers for dogs on the way home.

Unloaded groceries at home. Hubby seared his pot roast & started it along with onions and potatoes in the crockpot. He cut the pineapple. Poured wine for us. I put away all the groceries & dishes. Started load of laundry in the dryer.

Hubby and I went out to feed the deer. Bud & Ben came with us.

KRN came downstairs from talking with Matt. She talked for about 2 hours. We watched The Campaign (which was a stupid Will Ferrell movie), The Walking Dead, Schitt's Creek, and The Good Wife.

I took my sleeping tablet around the middle of The Good Wife. Went to bed about 10:15.
