TOO BUSY TODAY

saturday
october 21 2017

Got up at 7:30AM.

Hubby made eggs for dogs. I made lattes.

Hubby fed all the dogs, Ben, Wilson, & guest - Elle.

Elle took her food very gently and lady-like.

Puppies went outside to run around in the yard.

We got ready to leave.

Left the house at 8:45AM to go pick up KR.

Stopped for latte at Jitterz. They had a long line. My drink was ready by the time we got to the window. Great Baristas there!

Picked KR up. She was frantically trying to remember everything. I pottied upstairs because there was no toilet paper in the downstairs bathroom. Hubby and KR left by the time I got downstairs. I was talking to myself. Went outside and got into the Jeep.

Drove over to Spokane Airport. Dropped KR off at Departures gate.

We drove home with Beebo with us. Hubby stopped to get a latte at Dagny's Coffee Company.

Stopped to let Beebo pee & poop. He pooped right in front of a business door instead of the grass that we had stopped for him to use.

Picked up grain in Rathdrum at the Feed & Farm Store. Stopped in to talk to the owner at Piper 9 to find out about Acrylic Nail techs there.

At home, picked up mail.

Let Thomas into the big shop to winterize a boat.

Unloaded grain & filled deer feeders. Took out a pumpkin and carrots.

Hubby packed up the garbage in the back of the Grey Dodge pickup (without a topper).

We loaded the dogs including Ellie & Beebo into the Dodge and took them for a walk around the Brig at Farragut Park.

Then we stopped to unload garbage. Also stopped at Lil Town Market to get oatmeal because I had to feed the last of my oatmeal to the Moose the other day when we did not have grain.

Hubby dropped me and the dogs at home. He went to drop off a tool at Charles' and then go look at a truck by Careywood.

Dave came over right when I was washing my hair. He had helped Matt & Nichole Z move into their new home.

Talked to Dave for a while, hubby came back from looking at the truck.

Dave stayed here while we waited for Vera, but she went to Silverwood parking instead and waited for us. We got dressed. I wore 2 sweatshirts and my long fur coat, plus a scarf. Poor hubby could not put on his tennie shoes as his foot hurt and had to wear his sandals.

Met Vera at 7PM exactly. LOTS OF RAIN. TEMP WAS 41° .

Had to pay an additional $5 to park. Ridiculous. That should be included in the purchase of your ticket.

At the park, after parking in the "D" section, we waited for Mercedes & Tony, Dave's sister & her boyfriend. We met Matt & Nichole at the Pizza place that we stopped at to have dinner. It was nice & warm inside for a while.

Matt & Nichole brought booze to put in their drinks. They shared with Dave.

Walked thru Total Darkness & Caved In, Clown Town, Planet Zombie and finally 3Dementia. It was a lot of walking. My knee was really bad and I could tell that hubby was limping badly.

We decided to leave and the walk thru the park seemed ENDLESS. Too many people walking 3,4,5 abreast coming at you all the time. Almost pushing you off the walks. The FOG was the worst. You could not see at all when walking. Made it very dangerous. Hubby decided he HAD TO HAVE A CARAMEL APPLE from one of the vendor shops. So I waited on a park bench getting wet while he waited in line to get his apple.

After walking for MILES, we finally made it outside the park and to the truck.

Drove home.

Peeled everything off as we were both soaked. I took a hot bath. Took lots of aspirin. Everything hurt. Hubby tried to relax on the couch for a while before bed.

Dave & Vera came & picked up their truck at 11:30PM. I was already in bed.
