DAY 2 - FIRST Aid Training

SUNDAY
5-31-2015

Got up at 7:00. Dressed to go into class.

Drove Jeep to Albertson's to pick up some snacks. Got 2 for 1 mini muffins; watermelon, fruit, and pineapple, raisins, m&ms, and peanut mix, & cookies.

Got 2 lattes at Jitterz to make it thru class. Then washed the Jeep at the car wash.

Had Emily help me carry everything in to class.

The trainer was a jerk again today. The chairs were impossible to sit on for that length of time and he did not give us very many breaks.

At lunch, Ken & Emily & I went to Olive Garden. We had to rush because we got seated late, and the waiter was rushed and could not come to our table. We had a 10 minute wait. I had texted Mark, but he had already gone to Tomato Street again. Nobody else wanted to come out with us.

While I was at school, hubby mowed the yard.

Finally got released at 6PM. I drove over to meet hubby at CN Diesel. He had to take the Red Dodge there. Already another $600 spent on it and it still does not run.

Hubby wanted food, so we drove to the Beachhouse on CDA Lake Drive but it was torn down. Boo.

Then we stopped at UVA Italian Trattioria which was the former Godfather's. It was AWFUL. I left a bad review on Google Reviews. Tasteless, Bland, Overpriced food that was delivered by a pretentious waiter that ignored us. It was $45 for the awful food.

Drove home. We were both angry for having a wasted weekend.

Went to bed at 9PM because I was SO tired.

DAY 1 - CPR TRAINING

SATURDAY
5-30-2015

Got up at 7AM.

Drove to CDA and picked up a latte at Jitterz. Stopped to wash the car at the new car wash.

At the CPR Central training class, the trainer refused to unlock the door until 9AM.

So we waited. No snacks to eat as promised. So we starved.

The trainer is a real asshole. Control-freak.

At lunch, I drove Kate, Mark, and Panda (who did not want to go because he was broke, but I told him that I would buy his lunch) Katie met us there. Ken & Emily were supposed to meet us there, but they flaked out and went to Red Robin.

We had a great lunch. I had Lasagne and an Angry Orchard beer.

Had to take a test. I got 96 percent. Only missed 1 question.

We got to leave at 6PM. I drove home.

We walked dogs when I got home.

HATE THIS CLASS

THURSDAY
5-28-2015

Bravo & Lil Bit wanted into our bed at 4AM when the sun came up. So I put them on the bed and fell back to sleep.

Hubby got out of bed, but I felt paralyzed and did not want to move. Finally, I got up at about 6:10. Got dressed. Gave ham to dogs. Maggie had trouble coming down the stairs. She got confused and went into Ben's room, settled down on the floor next to the bed.

We finally got Maggie downstairs. Hubby watched news. I got dressed and gave fresh water & food to dogs.

Then I started getting ready for school. Did a load of laundry.

Turned on all the fans. Supposed to be warm today.

Left for school at 9AM.

Got to school at 9:30AM after getting a soy latte at KoKoPelli.

Dropped a black straw down behind the dash on the Jeep. Whoops.

The carpet still had stains all over it from the flood. Still stinks.

We took 10 minute break. I went to potty, then went out to Jeep to get water. Nick and Ken were driving away to the gas station. I went with them. Saw a really cute white Boxer at the gas station.His name was Popeye. He was adorable.

I went outside at break to lie down in the grass & watch clouds along with a jet plane that went overhead. It was very relaxing. I played music on my iPhone. Then Kate, Katie, and T came over to talk to me.

We went back to class. Did homework. Teacher let us go at 12:45PM.

I went down to get a Pita, then went over to tan at Slick Rock.

Afterwards, drove to Rathdrum and got groceries. Picked up a couple Lotto tickets. Wish we could win.

Drove home, gave a bone to Jack down at the shop, unloaded groceries, got mail, cleaned bugs off Jeep windshield, refreshed water & food for dogs, started laundry, started dishes.

Did homework. Went upstairs to take a nap. Maggie, Bravo, and Ben came upstairs with me. Bravo slept on the bed next to me.

Woke up and did more homework. Hubby got home at 7PM, but stayed at the shop for 30 minutes. I rode my bike down there to get him. Ben came with me and played with Jack.


Hubby came to the house, we loaded dogs into Excursion and went down to the Park to walk before it started raining. Dark rain clouds overhead.

We only walked a little ways because Maggie's back legs were getting bad and she was panting.

On the way home, we saw 3 deer cross right in front of us on Hwy 54 beside the on-ramp to Hwy 95.

Unloaded dogs at home, hubby fried up some Spam for a sandwich then went down to shop because Josh was coming to get the trailer.

I did more homework.

MEMORIAL DAY AND WORK WORK WORK

MONDAY
5-25-2015

Lil Bit got into bed with us at 5:00AM. He was all excited. Then he was upset because he saw that Bravo was already in bed with us.

Got up and started to get ready for Clinic. Talked to hubby about what he was going to do today.
It had rained, so he could not mow the yard or do the trees in the back yard.

Back Yard

I left for work late at 8:15 because I had not realized what time it was. I got to the Clinic at 8:40.

Hubby came for a massage. But they over charged him. I was pissed. They also made him pay instead of using my pre-paid account.

After I got done cleaning up in the Clinic, hubby and I went to Pita Pit and got pitas. Then we stopped at KoKopelli to get lattes.

Drove to Big R in our separate vehicles and hubby picked up some things he needed to finish a truck. We dropped his vehicle off and then drove around looking for suitable neighborhoods to live in within town. Did not find anything great.

Had to pick up a pedicure tool at Walgreens, then we drove home.

At home, hubby spent a couple hours at the shop. Then I came home and fed ham to the dogs. Cleaned up the dog food & water, started studying, started laundry. Cleaned up the house.

I soaked my feet and used the Pedi tool to take off the dead skin.

Took the dogs for a walk in the National Forest Lands area towards Spirit Lake. Lots of stinky sewage smells (hubby says dead body smell) and lots of stagnant water that Bravo loved to walk thru.

Dog Walk

Nate was the old that sold Dave 2.0 his new home. Nice kid. Very enthusiastic about some racing track adventure that he had just gone on in Vegas.

Our Jeep & Realtor's Jeep

We drove to Liberty Lake, but got frustrated when we could not find someplace to eat. I was very hungry.

Drove to Spokane and ate at Red Robin. Not a good idea. Drove back to Rathdrum and got groceries at Super One.

Hubby decided to come home then. It was too dark to walk.

Ate the awful dinner. It was a waste of $17. Hubby did not get a popcorn nugget and the food he did get was not edible. I filed a complaint online with KFC. NEVER going there again!

We watched tv and went to bed early. I was hurting all over again.

Got up at 7:30 and helped hubby make breakfast for dogs.

He put asparagus in with the eggs. We need to go get groceries today. He wants to go to Costco.

Loaded dogs in Excursion. Drove to get lattes in Athol. In the park, we walked the road by the Day Use area. There were some Camp Hosts back there even tho the road was still closed. Dogs saw some deer and tried to pull us after them.

Bravo & Bud in back seat

Came home and changed. Called Dave & Vera and agreed to meet them for lunch at 1:30. Costco was too busy to shop, so we got gasoline instead then went to the new Car Wash and bought an unlimited pass for Jeep at $29.99 a month.

Wash the car and cleaned the floor mats. Vacuumed the Jeep.

Drove to MacKenzie River Pizza Co and met Dave & Vera. Had pizza for lunch. Lots of liquor! Talked a lot.

I drove home because Hubby had too much to drink. We stopped at a Model Home just off Canfield Avenue in the new subdivision - Lake Forest West. I fell in love with the Sycamore Model home. But it was too expensive at $291,000.

But it had a great covered concrete patio, lovely fenced backyard, no stairs-one level only, Huge master bedroom, huge walk-in closet, fireplace, big kitchen, separate laundry room, an open Library/media room. I could live there happily for the rest of my life.

We drove to Rathdrum and got groceries. Ran into Chris there and as we were going inside, Kurt & Tamara Reese & family.

Tamara is always so happy. Hugged Greg & Me. Her mother was with them and she is very friendly, too.

Got up at 6AM when Lil Bit woke up us by wanting into bed. He whined & scratched so I put him on the bed.

Hubby got up out of bed to potty, then I followed him.

Bravo was super happy to see us this morning. He started doing ZOOMIES everywhere in the house, then picked up a bone & pranced around with it. I chased after him so ALL the dogs started barking & running. We ran outside on the decks and around inside the house.

Gave the dogs some ham.

Started making eggs for dogs. Hubby decided to fry up the last of the potatoes in bacon grease. The house stunk, but the dogs sure liked it. Made an egg sandwich with bacon, cheese & potatoes for hubby.

Got dressed. Hubby wore jeans, but I put on shorts. We loaded dogs in Excursion.

Went to get a latte for hubby. The fat girl was there and they had fired Danielle. We had wanted to give her a grad card with money, but probably will never see her again.

Then we went to the park. Walked the Gun Range Road. Went to see the gun range. Gave dogs water on the road. Maggie started walking really slowly.

As we left, some idiot people pulled in right next to us so they could go get Morell Mushrooms in the woods.

We left at 2:00 to go pick up Emily. Emily was waiting and got right in the Jeep. We drove to Calypso's Coffee.

We closed up shop at 5PM. 

Hubby came in to the Coffee Shop to pick up on one of the chairs. I also took out a box that I told Stephanie that I could return to the school on Monday.

Hubby, me, and Emily went back inside to get hubby a drink & give him a chance to potty.

Then we drove Emily home. Hubby was hungry, so we ordered a pizza from Spirit Lake. Drove there and purchased it. Hubby stopped at a road-side vegetable & fruit stand in Spirit Lake to get cantaloupe and asparagus.

Probably going to fail the Chemistry Quiz today in A&P because I just don't understand it at all. So difficult to comprehend.

Drove to get latte at KoKoPelli Coffee in Post Falls. Got Coconut milk instead of regular milk.

Went to school to study. Instructor said we are not having a quiz today! Yippee.

After class, I went down to wash the car. Hubby & Dave 2.0 stopped behind me at the car wash in their Frontier truck. Hubby jumped out and kissed me & hugged me. We talked for a few minutes. Then I had to go in the car wash. At 1:20, I went back to Clinic and signed in to get my massage.

Nick was really, really good. Worked out the kink in my right shoulder. He has some good moves that I will steal.

Then came home.

At home, I gave ham pieces to dogs. UPS package for my jeans was outside the front door. Did laundry. Did dishes. Ate pita from yesterday. Took a nap upstairs on bed. Was very tired. Hubby texted at 5:46 to go for a dog walk when he got home.

Hubby had a brief snack at home, changed into shorts. We loaded dogs in Excursion and went down to park to walk.

Came back and hubby took Excursion to shop (along with Maggie) and left trailer there. Then he worked on a truck down there for a while.

A&P More Learning

WEDNESDAY
5-13-2015


Got up and my shoulder still hurt a lot. Dressed & came downstairs to give ham slices to dogs. It was raining. Forgot to bring the dog beds in from outside last night. Now they are soaked.

Hubby watched news and then left for work at 7AM.

Started laundry and put it in dryer.

I got ready for school, studied more for the test and then left for school at 9AM.

Stopped at Kokopelli Coffee in Post Falls to get a drink with Soy milk.

Went to school and re-arranged the tables. Sat in the back next to Mark.

Mark talked to me before class, so I had no time to study more.

At 1:00, we left school.

I stopped at Pita Pit  to get 2 pitas. They were observing the slain officer from the other day by donating 50% of their sales for today only to the family.

Then I drove to Rathdrum and got my nails & toe nails done at Rhonda's.

Afterwards went home. I was exhausted. My arm was hurting again.

Got the mail.

I cleaned up dog water & dog food. Gave them fresh. It started raining really a lot. I put in a couple loads of laundry. Started dishes & put them away. Studied. Completed the Notecards for Chapter 4 to give to Katie C tomorrow.

Hubby got home at 7PM after going to the Union Meeting. I tried to study for tomorrow's Quiz on Chemistry. Yuck. Nothing makes sense.

Kinesiology AGAIN

TUESDAY
5-12-2015

Bad night. Had to sleep on heating pad for my left shoulder because it hurt so bad. I can move it, but it just aches deep down. I am going to have to finally call the Chiropractor.

Gave ham to the dogs. Made egg sandwich for hubby. Gave leftover eggs to dogs.

Hubby left at 7AM.

I started getting ready for school and studying.

This quiz is going to be DIFFICULT. I am not getting the bones in the arm. It is very difficult to study the different names without actually locating them.


8 Carpal Bones
Ham Cap Trap Trap
Pisi Triq Lune Scaph

14 Phlanges

5 Metacarpals

O-T-C-R-U

Tunnel of Guynon! 

These are the helpful little tricks I have learned to apply so that I can remember things. 



Before leaving for school, I added some Willie Nelson & Neil Diamond easy listening music to my iPhone.

Made a strawberry, protein, & spinach smoothie this morning. Drank all my Green tea before going to school.

6 cars on either side waiting at Jitterz this morning; so I picked up a latte from Kokopelli at the corner of 41 & Poleline Road. Think I will start going there instead of Jitterz.
 
Studied at school. Drank water & latte. Took the Quiz. Got 84%. Not good, not bad. Just need more work learning bones.

Teacher showed us some moves to work on. AND I GOT TO FEEL A KNOT! I got all teary because I had not been able to touch anything before like this. It was exciting. She had us feel other pieces of tension and stuffiness in the body.

We stayed over for about 15-20 minutes then finally left.

I drove to Costco on the Interstate. It started raining. Too many cars from WA driving over here in Idaho. Not just 1 every so often, but about EVERY car had WA tags.

Filled up at Costco; then drove to Ragan Equipment John Deere dealer to pick up belts. Of course, they did not have all 3 in stock, but I paid for all 3 and they will call me when the 3rd one comes in to the store.

Drove home. More idiots on the road going slow. Some idiot from Oregon STOPPED in the thru late at the Walmart corner; she was on her phone and then got in the turn lane for Walmart. OMG. STOPPING in the road because she was on her phone! OMG.

At home, gave ham to dogs. The air stank like rank horse manure. It was awful. Still raining.

I studied for Quiz tomorrow.

Hubby texted that Jason was coming over to fix the fireplace. I had to put the dogs in the back yard. Then when Jason got here, he had the wrong parts and could not fix the fireplace.

Dave 2.0 drove hubby home because I could not pick him up with Jason here. After he left, hubby and I had to drive up to Millwards to pick up some parts. I studied the whole way up there. Hubby had a beer with the guy. Then we drove back to Spirit Lake and picked up more strawberries.

At home, hubby made hamburgers. They were good, but spicy.

I studied some more and went to bed at 10PM because I was exhausted.

MOTHER'S DAY

SUNDAY
5-10-2015

Got up and hubby had already started watching his car shows on TV quietly by 8AM. Gave the dogs some ham. Hubby made eggs with potatoes & ketchup for the dogs.

Hubby (and the dogs) made me a mother's day card. It was sweet. 

Then I made a strawberry smoothie with spinach & banana for me. We sat on the deck enjoying the sunshine. Played "Here Comes The Sun" by the Beatles on Youtube via my iPhone. Watched a hawk circle on the air currents right above our heads.

Texted KRN. She wished me a happy mothers' day.

We took the dogs in the Excursion to Athol. Had to wait for a train. Got lattes. Drove to the park and walked them in the Frisbee area. Lots of people in the park.

Came back and had to wait for another train. There was a sheriffs' car sitting at the Fire dept.

At home, I got out the weed pump sprayer from the garage. Hubby drove the Red dually up to the house. Then he had leftovers for lunch.

He mowed circle driveway area. The weed pump sprayer had decayed and broken a fitting so liquid was coming out the wrong area. Need to purchase another.

We decided to drive up to Garfield and reserve a boat dock. Took the Jeep. Stopped to get hubby another latte in Athol. At Garfield Bay, the marina has been demolished. Gone. Everything was up on the parking lot. We asked a guy walking by what was happening and he said that they were done.

Depressed, we drove back. I wanted to go home, but hubby talked me into going to Spokane to Manito park and eat at Rocky Rococo's. Drove all the way there and I did not want to go to the park. Just went to eat. Parked at the Parking ramp and walked over. Food was not very good. We left and drove back to Rathdrum and got ice cream at Dairy Queen. Hubby got a cherry dipped cone. I was tired. Drove home. Did laundry, cleaned up dog food. Gave ham slices to dogs. Watched TV and went to bed early.

A boring Mother's Day.

Got up and dressed. We watched the older movie Total Recall instead of watching news this morning. Hubby did not want to listen to depressing news.

He left early at 6:45. Dogs & I waved goodbye from the deck.

I kept getting ready.

Left at 8:00 so that I could get there early to prepare. Today is my first WOW treatment with Katie D. The people are coming in together. I don't think it will be that difficult, just have to get everything set up correctly.

Got to school at 8:30 and clocked in; Panda was already there and Katie D came later. I put her notecards in her mail box.

We got ready together. Panda helped us. That was very nice.

At Pita Pit, I purchased a Chicken Crave pita. Drove home. Very tired. Ate my pita, changed dog water. Was exhausted and took a nap. When I awoke, I had explosive diarrhea several times. Was still very tired.

BIG A&P Quiz

THURSDAY

Got up and dressed. Made cheese eggs & bacon sandwich for hubby. Gave leftover eggs to dogs. Bravo is greedy and likes to eat everything. He stayed in his kennel really good last night. Did not even have to close the door.

Hubby pooped up on the top of the toilet and I made him clean it up. Gross!

Hubby left at 7AM.

KRN texted me from Seattle that she was walking her friend's dog. Then she packed up her stuff & sent me a pic. She took a shuttle to the airport. I am so proud of her for doing everything alone. She is very brave.

Drove to school. Picked up a latte on the way.

At school, studied some more. Then talked with Panda, Nick, and Ken.

Then we took our test. I only missed 2 out of 35. So that was a good 94%. Pretty good. The test was TOTALLY different than what I had imagined or studied.

I had no clue. Just tuned out. Will have to have hubby help me thru it.

At 1:00, went to get a Pita at Pita Pit. Then came back for my massage with Ben. He really got the knots out of my right shoulder. He did a great job. I gave him a $10 tip upstairs on my credit card.

Drove home. Got gas in Rathdrum.

At home, I gave dogs some ham. Did dishes. Did laundry. Did notecards for our next class in Pathology.

Woke up to freezing cold temps this morning. Made hubby turn on the heaters before I got up at 6:15. Hubby left early to stop at Richie C's to discuss a truck title.

Hubby forgot his phone, so I got into the jeep and raced down to the espresso stand to give it to him.

KRN texted that she was already on the road to Seattle.

I tried to put together the dog kennel, but there are parts missing and the door seems not to fit.

I studied and got ready for school.

Drove to school and stopped in Rathdrum to get a Soy latte. It was ok.

At school, studied for Quiz some more.  So I got 20/20 or 100% for the Quiz. Then we took a Pop Quiz over the next chapter which I had not read AT ALL! I was panicking. But with a little thinking and ingenuity, I got 8 out of 10 on that (80%). So not a bad day after all for Quizzes.

We went to Office Max to see if they could do other business cards for me; purchased some pencils. They did not have good note cards, so I could not get any there.

Drove to Rathdrum and got groceries at Stein's. Bones for the dogs. Beer Brats to cook on the grille at home. KRN called to ask if we wanted burritos. We said no thanks, we had mexican the other night. Too much.

Picked up bird seed at The Hardware Store by Stein's; they did not have belts for lawn mowers there. Then drove home. Hubby unloaded groceries. I replaced the dog water, fed the deer, put out bird seed in the bird feeder. Hubby started the push lawn mower and mowed the back yard.

I had gotten a call from Clinic but had missed it because my ringer was on mute.

So I listened to the voice mail message. They wanted me to come in early by 12:00 to do a massage. Somebody had not shown up for their clinic hours, so they had to get somebody to cover.

So I quickly called them back and told them I would work. Amber threw in a bonus 1 hour for Business Hours. I changed quickly and got ready for work.
