FRIDAY
7-17-2020


Got up at 5AM from the hotel. People were constantly walking thru the hallways, being very loud. The beds were uncomfortable. Super thin sheets. THIS HOTEL WAS A NIGHTMARE.

Dogs had to potty, so we could not go back to bed. We packed everything up and decided to leave.

Tater was not having any of the elevator any more and pulled away, so we walked down 4 flights of stairs again.

Hubby locked his keys in the trailer and went nuts trying to find them. He pulled forward and had me look on the ground. He had put the Yale lock on the door, so we would have to wait until we got back home to cut the lock.

Drove  to Starbucks right from the hotel to get egg bites & lattes. They were striping the parking lot. Hubby went inside and he took my phone inside to pay. Fed egg bites to dogs.



Stopped at QT to get fuel. Forgot to get ice.

We had donuts leftover from Bosa Donuts, so we ate those for breakfast.

Stopped to potty in Wikiup. Walked dogs behind Travel store.

Stopped in Kingman to walk dogs at the Lewis Kingman Park. Was stopped by a wreck on the underpass while driving on I-40 and Route 66; cops were just cleaning up. Stopped at the Maverik to potty and get fuel.

Dog Walk In Kingman, AZ


Stopped at Lake Mead turn out to walk the dogs in the rocks & bushes. It was SO hot.

Drove the back way thru Lake Mead Rec Area; got lost in Boulder City and had to double back. Then w got past the Entry Guard Shack. Used Hubby's Handicap Park Pass to drive thru.

Saw a kid hitch-hiking from a broken down car just past Lake Las Vegas, we were going too fast to stop with Truck & Trailer.

It took a LONG time to drive this way. Lots of twisty, turny road. Stopped in Moapa to walk dogs at the Rec Center in the grass.

Finally arrived home and unloaded. I took a shower. Felt dirty.

Fed dogs snacks.

Zombied out the rest of the night. So tired.

Went to bed early.




THURSDAY
7-16-2020

Up at 4AM. I took a shower and washed my hair.

Hubby made dog eggs and fed them. I made lattes & Nanogreens for me.

We got loaded and into the truck by 5AM.

John & Dee were waiting in the street for us. We drove ahead of them.

We drove towards Las Vegas. Stopped just past the Dam to potty the puppies.

We stopped in Kingman, AZ to get fuel at the Chevron there. I went inside to get a Arizona Green tea. We walked the dogs again for potty.

Drove to Surprise AZ. We got the directions mixed up and started driving towards the hotel, had to turn around and drive the opposite way.

Got to Kelsei's house (John's daughter) and unloaded everything. Put the dogs in their tiny back yard (where she had not picked up the dog poo...)

Once we were done, they gave us a tour of the home. Tater decided to swim in their pool.


We left by 1PM. Went to Wendy's to feed the dogs and us. I got a chicken sandwich that was not very good.

Drove to Retablo, Mexican Yard Art. Hubby had to park 1 block away, around the corner because he could not pull truck & enclosed trailer into parking lot.

I forgot my mask, and had to walk back to truck. Then I went back and walked thru the building while Hubby sat in truck with dogs.

I purchased a Goat.

Then we walked the dogs at a Grover Basin Dog Park. It was very hot. About 110 degrees. They raced around a lot. Pooped. I had to pick up poop and the park did not provide bags. I had to go outside and get shopping bags on other dog park side.

Wilson hung out in the shade. We gave them lots of water.



I had to go poopy potty and we found a Home Depot on nearby Bell Road. Almost nobody was wearing masks. Hubby dropped me off and I went.

We found a Bosa Donuts.


And we got banana strawberry smoothies. BEST SMOOTHIE EVER!

Purchased a box of yummy donuts.

We drove to Tom & Stacy's house in Mesa, AZ. On the east side of Phoenix. I had to talk with Stacy inside the house while Hubby was loading Joe's truck into the Enclosed trailer.


I was thoroughly tired by the time we left there. We drove another 2 hours back to the La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Phoenix West Peoria. It was the FILTHIEST hotel we have ever stayed at; it was disgusting.

John & Dee had paid for us, otherwise we would have left. Even with Covid, they were not cleaning the hotel.

Took the dogs for a walk around the hotel. It was too late to get anything for food. We finally decided on pizza from Giordano's. It was not that good.

I fell asleep on the bed nearest the door with Tater and Wilson, then Tater jumped off the bed and slept with Hubby for the rest of the night. Sheets were paper thin. I forgot to complain about that on the Google review.

Hubby had to wash Tater's paws as they were black from the blacktop pavement.

I got up when they got back home. I made lattes & Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby said we have to go to Las Vegas to get wheels & tires. He called somebody on Facebook.

So we loaded dogs and drove to Vegas.

In Vegas, we stopped on Durango & Deer Springs Way to walk the dogs on grass with a little dog park and doggy bags.

Then we resumed our trip and got to South Las Vegas and entered the gated community with a code.

I walked the dogs in the awful heat while Hubby paid for and loaded the wheels & tires that we had come to purchase.

Then we drove away. I had to pee badly, but at the gas station, the Restrooms were closed due to Covid-19. WTF. I mean. What The Actual Fuck.

I was so pissed, I told Hubby to find some privacy and I would pee in the dog water bowl.

We drove past a school/waterpark that had porta-potties out front and they were OPEN! I went inside and they were very clean.

Hubby relieved himself at the porta potty also!

We drove to Sin Fronteras Tacos and Hubby went inside to order (with mask). I got Street Taco plate and Hubby got Burrito made Chimi style.



We ate in the truck with the A/C.

Then we drove to Wendy's and got burgers for dogs.


Drove home again. Got home at 2PM. Had to exit at the Bunkerville Exit to avoid the traffic back-up on I-15 in Mesquite.

I took a nap.

Hubby talked to Earl to ask him if he wanted to work RV here at our new building. He called Joe to talk to him about getting the Jeep to him in Idaho.

Hubby woke me at 6PM so we could go swimming.

Put dogs in kennel.

Water in pool was FREEZING. Even after a high of 112 degrees today. HOA Excuse? Pilot Light Keeps Getting Blown Out By The Wind. I call bullshit.

Came back from swimming at 8PM. We ate the rest of our meals from Sin Fronteras. Dogs got treats. It stank too badly to take Tater for another run in the golf cart.

I went to bed at 10PM. Hubby came to bed at 11PM.

TAKE CAMPER OFF TRUCK

MONDAY
7-13-2020

Up at 6AM. My back hurt a lot. It hurt to sleep on it. Tried sleeping on my side and was nauseated, almost vomited.

I made lattes & Nanogreens. Warmed up Egg Bites from Starbucks.

I printed out Hubby's 2016, 2017, 2018 Taxes & the Financial Statement so he can submit it to the Bank for the SBA Loan.

We had to pick up the remains of the pad from the dog's kennel since Tater chewed it up last night.

I picked up dog poo. Hubby vacuumed and cleaned cat litter. We both made the bed. Started Roomba. Started laundry. I put away breakfast dishes & started dishwasher.

Hubby left at 10AM to take camper off and take paperwork to the Bank.

He texted me at 11AM to let me know that the battery in the camper had died and he had to put the jump box on it to charge.

I did laundry.

Rattler Has Missing Fur On His Belly


I saw that Rattler has missing fur on his belly - he must have been playing rough with Robert.

Hubby finally got home at 3PM. He brought milk, ice, and steaks from Walmart.

He grilled steaks on the grille. Then he sat down on the sofa. Said that he had heatstroke. I gave him a cool washcloth and had him drink water.

He did not want to go swimming tonight as he did not feel good.

We watched Johnny Carson re-runs on TUBI.

Went to bed at 10PM.

SUNDAY ALL DAY

SUNDAY
7-12-2020

Up at 6AM. Tater came into the bedroom and jumped on the bed. He licked my face to wake me up, but then put his head next to me. He jumped down later.

I slept until 7:30 and got up to make lattes.

I made Nanogreens.

Then we watched the 1966 Casino Royale which was awful. Neighbor kept texting me.

I filed a dispute with Transunion over the Horizon account which was showing a balance still which was paid off 2 months ago.

We put the dogs in the kennel and drove to Starbucks for a drink and egg bites. Better get that 50 points!

Then we drove back over so that Hubby could get his antibiotic drugs for his nose at Walgreens. He had called it in a couple days ago.

We drove to Star Nursery and got a couple replacement plants for the side yard after putting in our bricks.
 Replacement Plants


Had to take Hubby down to the Pioneer Center so he could pick up his truck.

He followed me home and put the plants in the ground.

Then he took the truck, went to get the trailer to put new tires on it.

I took a nap from 2PM-3PM.

Hubby came back and installed new mini blinds on the window behind the sofa. The cats had eaten thru the mini blind cord again.

Reserved our camper site at Farragut Park. Reserved our camper site at Buffalo Meadows RV Park in Fort Hall.

Went swimming at 6PM. Put dogs in kennel until we got back.

SATURDAY IN ST GEORGE/HEATWAVE

SATURDAY
7-11-2020

Up at 7AM. Heard Tater barking at people outside.

I got up and hurt everywhere. I started making lattes and my Nanogreens.

We watched News on TV. Then Hubby decided that we needed to return the toilet to Camping World in St George.

I cleaned up the breakfast dishes and started dishwasher. I made the bed.

Hubby cleaned up cat litter & vacuumed. We ran the Roomba in both bedrooms. I cleaned up dog poo outside and gave them clean, fresh water.

We loaded dogs in the Expedition. Drove to St George.

Stopped at Starbucks to collect my free 50 points by ordering from Starbucks twice in the next few days by July 13.

So I ordered a Black Tea Lemonade. Not bad. Not great. It was wet and cool.

Hubby stopped at Harbor Freight to get tools. He was in the store for over 30 minutes. We had to sit in the car with the A/C running as it was 108 degrees today.
 
 Hubby ran inside
Then we drove to Costco so Hubby could run inside and get ice, shrimp ring, D batteries, and




We drove over to Joann's so that I could run inside and get yarn. I also found a bunny for the spare bedroom and a bug for the hallway.
 Bunny In Spare Bedroom


  Bug On Hallway Wall

The Bunny and Bug were only $5 each since they were having a 75% Off Sale; then the nice lady at the checkout had a 25% discount for me. The yarn was also 20% off!

Drove to Veyo, UT on the very nice Hwy 18 from St George. Stopped mid-way and picked up roadside Honey from Stephenson Honey out of Delta, UT. It was very good.

At Veyo, we ordered pizza at A Slice of Veyo.

We ordered a large pie Chicken Alfredo. Hubby got green peppers and green chilies on his side.

We drove around looking for a place to walk the dogs and found some grass at the local LDS Church,

 Dogs In LDS Grass



Went back 30 minutes later and ate pie in the car. Parked in front of Veyo Pies so Hubby could go inside and get a Banana Pie that he has been dreaming about for the past 3 days!


We drove home the back way on Gunlock Road. Past Gunlock.

On the way home, we stopped at Wendy's to get burgers for the dogs.



At home, Hubby unloaded. I drank the Raspberry tea that we got at Wendy's. Gave burgers to the dogs.

Hubby went swimming from 6PM-7PM. I stayed home as I was exhausted.

Hubby came back. Norm had called to loan him the Golf Cart for the week so he can run Tater.

We watched TV and went to bed at 9PM. Both of us were exhausted. Hubby thought he had a sore throat.
