Tater peed on the wall & floor by our bedroom. I had to clean it up.

He is just not understanding to NOT relieve himself in the home.

About 60 people in the pool, 15 people in the hot tubs, lots gathered around and sitting at the patio sets under huge umbrellas. Many people in the gym area exercising and some people swimming inside.

When we came home, we discovered that Tater had gotten into the fireplace storage on the patio and torn open a bag of fireplace glass. Hubby had to vacuum it all up. We hope that Tater did not eat/swallow any glass. I looked it up online and found that if he is lethargic, or has poop problems we need to take him to the Vet, but otherwise it should just pass thru his system.

We will need to lock Tater in his kennel from now on when we leave.

Watched TV for a while. Then went to bed at 10PM.

Got up at 6AM. I actually did not have to use Benadryl to sleep last night. Slept in our bed all night long with Robert by my head, Tater & Wilson at the bottom of the bed by our feet.

Made the bed, got dressed. Then I made lattes. Hubby made eggs for dogs.

I vacuumed the house. Lots of black dog hair.

We drove down to Mesa View Medical where I checked in; the front desk did not like that I did not have a "card" for my insurance. I just had the paperwork on my phone. So I sent them an email with the information. I saw Dr Briggs after nurse Katie took my temp, BP, and weight. Yuck. Gained weight.

Dr said that he would call in a prescription for steroid cream for the bug bites that were driving me CRAZY.

We drove to Walmart and picked up groceries/cat litter. Had quite a few problems checking out. It would not ring up the asparagus. 

Then we drove over to the Pharmacy and NOTHING was called in yet. So I called the Doctor's office and left a message.

At home, we unloaded groceries. I ordered tickets for July to see The Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder at Tuacahn Theatre. 

Hubby called the NV Department of Environmental Protection Air Quality and left a message for them regarding the watering at Conestoga Golf Course. 

Tyler from Southwest Awnings came out again to give us a bid on roll down shades.

Had lunch.

Had to clean up Tater's poo in the hallway on the carpet & some in the cat area. Then he peed at the living room. 

We watched TV for a while.

Went to TRIVIA at the Pioneer Center. Played from 4:30-6:30PM with David and Greg. Greg had to leave early. We lost. A lot of questions that we did not know the answers. Lots of them were not in our age area of expertise. The group we play with is 20+ years older than us and ask questions pertaining to the era.

Came home and watched TV.

Went to bed at 10:30PM.

HOT TODAY

TUESDAY
6-11-2019

Got up at 2AM because I was all itchy in bed.

Went to sleep on sofa after getting blue blanket in closet.

Woke up and went to sleep in the front room again.

Slept until 9:30AM after Hubby came to check on me and the trash truck came.

I vacuumed cat litter; picked up dog poo. Filled dog water.

I updated playlists on my iTunes.

I washed laundry.

Hubby made lunch.

Took a hot bath later because I was hurting.

Hubby called the doctor for me to get an appointment because of my bites.

We watched Hello Dolly.

BENADRYL NIGHT

MONDAY
6-10-2019

Woke up at 2AM to sleep on the sofa; there were too many animals pushing on me in the bed.

I slept on the sofa until 4AM, then went to sleep in the spare bedroom. I slept there until 8AM.

Got up and made lattes; Hubby had already made eggs & fed dogs.

Hubby had already made the bed.

I got dressed and put away the blanket I slept with in the night.

Still zonked out on effects of Benadryl.

We sat around the house most of the day.

Walked the dogs later.

Watched Santa Clarita Diet on TV. I am so upset that they are canceling this great show. Fuckers.

We went swimming from 5:30-7PM.

At home, I took more Benadryl because I was itching everywhere.

Hubby had me take a shower and scrubbed everywhere. Then he poured vinegar over my hair and all over my body. Supposed to kill any bugs.

Dried my hair.

Went to bed at 10PM.

I got up and slept on the sofa, then went into the spare bedroom to sleep.

MIMOSA BUFFET AT CASABLANCA / STILL BURNT / iTUNES FOLDER FOUND!

SUNDAY
6-9-2019

Woke up at 5:50AM.

I was hurting everywhere from the sunburn on my legs and neck and face. My left big toe was injured and throbbing.

Reminder to self - NO MORE RIDING AFTER A MAXIMUM OF 4 HOURS.

In the bathroom, I had to clean up cat food vomit.

Then I had to clean up dog piss in the kitchen.

Hubby put the dogs out (again) as he had gotten up at 4AM to put the dogs out and could not go back to sleep. He was sitting on the sofa, surfing his iPad.

I made lattes.

Then I put away clean clothes from the dryer.

Hubby made dog eggs and we fed them.

Hubby started looking up a 4-door UTV on the web that he wants to bid upon. I had to get his CoPart sign in.

Hubby got dressed and we finally left to go down to the Casablanca for Sunday Mimosa Brunch.

It was only $8.99 per person. Very nice. Not very smoky.

We had a nice breakfast and then sat for a while, drinking coffee and sipping Mimosas out of tiny plastic cups.

Then we left and drove to Beaver Dam. Hubby went inside to get lottery tickets.

We drove back on the interstate to Walmart and picked up groceries. A cantaloupe rang up twice at the register and instead of waiting in line for a return, the clerk suggested that I go get another cantaloupe.

The dually needed fuel, so we drove to Flying J and hubby filled it with Diesel.

We drove home and unloaded groceries.

When we arrived home, I noticed that while we were GONE, Tater had knocked over a chair on the courtyard patio set, he had gotten up on the top of the glass table, chewed out the plastic hole cover in the middle of the table. So I had to clean the table and find what was left of the plastic cap. 

Hubby put the cap back in the glass table top.

AT 12:45PM, I FOUND MY iTUNES FOLDER!!!!!!

I spent the next few hours updating album artwork and arranging my iTunes. 

Hubby went outside and re-buried the drainage pipe that Tater had pulled out of the ground.

I went down to the mail box to pick up the mail. We got registration tags for the BarkArk, but not new plates that we had BEEN FORCED TO PURCHASE. They were supposed to be mailed later.

Hubby watched shows on Youtube on our TV while I uploaded artwork for new iTunes albums.

We sat outside for a while. No breeze was blowing.

Could not go swimming as I was too burnt and did not want to be in the sun again today.

I was getting bit today by bugs; I put on cream and pain relieving spray with Lidocaine.

Finally took 3 Benadryl to try to sleep. We went to bed at 10:30PM. 

SXS RIDE IN MOUNTAINS

SATURDAY
6-8-2019

Up at 6AM.

I made lattes. Hubby made breakfast eggs. We sat on the courtyard to eat. It was a cool morning. Fed dogs.

I vacuumed. I put breakfast dishes in dishwasher.

I put away clean clothes.

Hubby put air in tires of Can-Am. While he was out there, 2 ambulances came to LeAnn's house. They did not take anybody out.

Steve was out talking with hubby along with his dog, Cosmo. Dawn came out to see what was going on. I got to talk with her, briefly.

Then we left at 8:20AM to meet Oscar and Geri, (actually thought her name was Gail at first!)
They have a really nice house on Sundance Way. Very big house with a pool.

We stopped to get fuel at Terribles on W Mesquite Boulevard.

Gone from 8:30AM to 5:30PM.

Passed a ranch on BLM land with cows, then stopped to look at the Valley at a point that was 5995 Feet, then stopped at a old abandoned mine. After this, we drove out to an abandoned Government BLM Landing strip with out buildings for Fire Suppression. Looked all around.

I had to potty, put burn gel on my legs and chest. We had snacks and water, then resumed the journey.

The last few miles were pure torture. Just driving over huge boulders on the track, too much bouncing, my legs & chest & face were all burnt. It was SO hot.

We finally returned home. I put ice & aloe vera on my legs. Hubby took a shower. Then I took a shower much later.

Went to bed at 10PM.
