I opened tuna for the cats and gave them cheese, too.

 

Hubby texted me with the iPad. His phone was charging, so he could not call. He was using the generator to charge everything and get the water heater up to taking a shower. He said the generator is much quieter than the one we had on the boat.

KR called at 8AM. I talked to her about Loan Guy giving us the LOI for the Loan. We are excited. She said that she will continue to work for the contractors for 3 months, then be hired by Amazon. Yippee.

Then I started working on Taxes all day.

Let the dogs in and out several times. 

They chased a little black dog that a lady was walking. Tater did not bark, but I hit him with the remote because he was running down the fence. Wilson was barking a little.

I brought them inside immediately.

Then I did laundry.

I took Tater for a walk to the mailbox, down to the park, then around the back of the house. He walked pretty good with the HEEL command.

Tater is still having problems with the PLACE command and wanders off sometimes. We need to work on that.

A dark grey pickup stopped out back when Wilson was outside. He barked at the truck. Then when I went out to check on him, the truck raced away. Was it Darryl, coming to spy and take pictures of the wall?

 

Hubby called me and told me that Loan Guy had called him about conference call at 1:30PM. 

 

Hubby said Rich was coming over for the plans. Rich was here within minutes. Somebody else is interested in the property and wanted to see the plans. We have shit for luck.

 

I had ordered a Pulse Oximeter because Joe told me I needed to check my oxygen in the blood content. 

It was delivered today and I tried it out. I am A-OK.

I made baked cheese eggs in the air-fryer. 

 

Hubby still had the Egg Bake in the oven. It had another 30 minutes before it was done.  

We watched morning News on TV. 

Then I helped Hubby put away Xmas boxes in the garage. We have more room to move in the garage! Wilson and Tater helped in the garage. I opened the side door to pick up poo. Wilson and Tater went outside. They were at the fence when some people walked by, but they did NOT bark. Wilson "boofed" a couple times. Tater did not make a noise! Not even whines. 

I talked to the couple who said they have a Schipperke-cross named Skippy. We talked for a while about dogs before they walked again.

I went to tell Hubby about Tater not barking.

Hubby got a phone call from Dana to ask about helping to come do parking/backing with him in his trailer. Dana was ranting on the phone about President Biden's border immigration policies.

I came inside and put away clean dishes. Cleaned the counter and put dirty dishes in dishwasher. I put laundry in dryer.

Hubby started nailing my string art so that I can work on it while he is gone.

 

We put dogs into Expedition and drove to Hubby's dentist appointment in Beaver Dam at 12:30PM. We were early, so we walked the dogs at the school. Hubby went inside the Canyonlands Health Center and I waited in the car with the dogs.

Hubby put the UTV on the trailer. He had the camper already loaded on the truck. 

Hubby drove back down to the shop to get the water he left down there. 

At 3:30PM, he drove home. Told me to take the car to the Pioneer Center to pick him up. Then when I had loaded the dogs and drove to the Pioneer Center, he called again and said that he would be parking the truck & trailer in front of the house. 

I picked him up at the house and we went looking at the new subdivision. Then we came back and got the mail.

Hubby took the dogs into the house. I backed the car into the garage. 

Hubby went to the kitchen to start preparing his egg bake for taking to King Of Hammers.

He made sausage and put it in with eggs, milk, bread. He made 2 batches.

I cleaned up the stove for him afterwards. 

Hubby had to clean out the trash compactor afterwards because it was clogged. He got 2 of the plungers out and then had to take the p-trap out to drain it. Lots of egg shells in it which did not go down and a couple straws. He flushed everything down the toilet in the front of the house. 

Then we watched TV for a while. Watched Dead Like Me on Roku Channel, but it kept cutting out and cycling. I had to stop it and re-set the box.

We sat outside for a while with the dogs. Tater ran to the fence a couple times, but I shocked him and he stayed aay. No barking. Wilson barked a couple little times, but not bad. 

 

It got windy and cold outside, even in the sunshine. So we came inside.

PICK UP TATER

 FRIDAY

1-22-2021

 

 

 

 Up at 6AM. I made the bed. 

I put warm water out for the birds. It was cold and cloudy outside. Looked like it would rain.

Hubby made burritos for himself. I made lattes & Nanogreens. Then we sat on the sofa and watched News on TV. 

Hubby got dressed and did the cat litter. 

 

We got everything together. Had to write an email to the attorney for up-to-date information on Pulte retaining wall.

KR called and we talked to her for a while. I forgot some things and had to run back inside. We talked to KR while we were getting ready to go.

We left at 9:30AM and drove to St George. Wilson sat on my lap. 

In St George, we stopped at Doggy Day Care and dropped Wilson off. He was whining to go play. Hubby took him in while I waited in the truck.

We drove to Lowe's and picked up nails and screws.

Then I walked over to the $1 Dollar Store and got spring flowers and heart valentine's candy for Hubby.

We drove to 5 Guys to get lunch. There was a LONG LINE into the street waiting for Chick-Fil-A. We sat and watched it while we ate our food. We also watched a stupid woman in a suburban drive the wrong way thru the drive-thru while looking for a parking place. Then she had to back out of the drive-thru because it was blocked!

We drove to Costco and got fuel for the Dually. Went inside to get stuff, but they had nothing we wanted to buy, so we left. We had parked by the trainer's Grooming Van - Misty. But it was gone by the time we got outside.

Drove to the park a little before 2:30PM. Miriam was there with Tater. Miriam called Bryan, the he & Misty showed up a little while afterwards.

Bryan talked to us for about 20 minutes, discussing the training that Tater had gotten. Miriam entertained Tater while we were talking. Tater wanted to bark really badly, but all he did was whine. She had cured him of his barking! Bryan showed us how the electric shock collar worked.

 

Hubby and I had to go potty, and I had to get a sweater because it was getting colder. Then we took Tater on a walk around the park. Hubby walked him first, then I worked with him. 

We worked with Tater, then it was time to leave. We loaded Tater up into the Truck, but he waited to be picked up. Bryan did not like that, so he worked with him for a while. He would jump into the back of the truck and Miriam's truck just fine, but was scared of our truck door. Finally, Bryan got him to half-heartedly get into our truck.

We drove back to pick up Wilson at Doggy Day Care. Stopped at Wendy's first to get a 4 for $4 so the dogs could have a treat.

 

Tater wanted to bark REALLY badly when Hubby went inside Doggy Day Care to get Wilson, but he just whined.  

I gave Wilson some water when he got to the truck. Then we gave the dogs some burger, chicken tenders, and french fries from Wendy's.

We drove back home. We were going to stop and get lottery tickets in Littlefield, but it was too busy. Oh, well. Not going to win anyway!

We drove home. Decided to get milk tomorrow morning.

At home, the boys went out to potty. I changed clothes and took a hot bath. I was hurting all over and tired.

The boys napped for the rest of the night. 

Tater and I went to get mail later after dark. Tater walked with me, heeling with the leash dragging on the ground. Hubby watched us from the house. He was so proud.

We went to bed at 9PM. All of us were tired. 

Tater & Wilson both slept in bed with us tonight. Kept covering Tater up with his blanket. I woke up at 1AM from a nightmare and went potty. Thought I would stay awake, but fell back to sleep. Hubby got up at 5AM to let Wilson outside for potty.

I made lattes & Nanogreens. I made the bed. 

 

I took fresh, warm water out to the birds.

Hubby made burritos, but forgot to put eggs in them! Fed Wilson the leftover cheeseburger from yesterday's Wendy's order.

We sat watching News on TV for a while. Then at 8AM, I told Hubby he needed to get dressed and do cat litter. I started laundry.

I washed Wilson in the kitchen sink and then took him out to the patio to blow-dry. It took 30 minutes to get him dry.

 

We made a list for groceries to get at Walmart and I ordered them for pick-up at 3PM. Hubby said he would stop to get them.

Then we loaded Wilson in the Dually (with the trailer still attached to it which was parked out front) and drove down to the Fire Department in Mesquite to get Hubby tested for Covid-19 again. He has to have a Negative Test result before he & Joe can attend King Of Hammers next week. 

Hubby had to park the trailer next to the testing area so that he could drive thru the cone-maze leading to the testing. The gentleman in the line was very nice and laughed at the big truck. The ladies in line were very nice and one even petted Wilson. Everyone was wearing masks.

 

HUBBY GETTING TESTED FOR COVID-19

 

When we finally got to the testing area inside the Fire Department, they thought I was getting tested, too - the nurse even tried to run around the truck. We told her just Hubby was getting tested.

We drove to Walgreens to pick up L'Oreal Lip Gloss for me. They quit manufacturing the Lip Gloss that I liked and made different stuff. Hubby picked up a B'Day card for Dana L. I also got some new mascara. Hubby grabbed some cookies "for the Hammers' vacay" and some candy. He gave the cashier his $100 that he needed to split into less cash. She had a problem finding money in the store and was whining about it.

Then we drove out to Scenic so Hubby could buy more Lottery tickets. Some person in Maryland had won the Powerball, but there is still the Mega Millions to win! 

We came back to Mesquite and took Wilson to the dog park. He ran around the fence line, pooped, but did not want to play with any of the dogs! I talked to one guy that had a Basenji/Carolina Bear Dog named Lucy. She was a pretty black & white dog with a fluffy curled tail. We finally left after about 20 minutes.

Hubby drove us home. 

Hubby stopped the truck and I got out to get the mail. We got Tater's Pitbull PJs that we ordered. 

 

Hubby had lunch then left to go down to the shop. He unloaded the trailer at the shop and then went to help

NO SLEEP LAST NIGHT / UNSEASONALLY WARM TODAY

SUNDAY

1-17-2021 

I did not sleep all night long. Felt like I was hyped up on caffeine. Not sleepy. Went to bed at 9:30PM with Hubby last night. Wilson was on the bed between us. 

I got up at 11:30PM after trying to sleep, but nothing happening. 

I took my phone, got dressed, and sat on the sofa all night. 

At 2:30AM, I had to potty. Wilson came out and was squeaking at me. He was concerned about me. Tried to get me back to bed, but I went to the bathroom. He went to sleep on his dog bed.

I went back to the sofa and looked at my phone some more. Just browsing news and funny things. I could have watched a movie, but was too lazy to get up and find earphones.

At 5:30AM, I went to bed, but could not sleep. I heard Hubby get up and go to the bathroom.

At 7AM, he finally woke up. I told him I did not sleep all night. He left the bed with Wilson and put the dog out. I managed to fall asleep for 30 minutes and have nightmares about repair people coming to our house. Then the Roomba started at 8AM and woke me up.

I ordered cream from Surgeon's Skin Secret. 

 

We drove to Beaver to get Lottery tickets. The Beaver Dam Bar was too busy, so we went to Littlefield. The line wrapped around the building. So we headed back to Beaver and Hubby went in to purchase the lottery tickets at Beaver Dam Lodge. I tried to walk Wilson in the dried grass, but he got into cockleburrs and could not walk. I got them on the bottoms of my shoes. I had to carry him to the truck and pick them off his poor little feet. He tried to bite me, but I calmed him down. 

 

Hubby came out and had only had to wait in line behind 1 guy. 

 

We drove to Mesquite and took Wilson to the dog park. An older gentleman with a dog named Daisy was there. He lived in Sun City, too. Wilson ran around with a huge golden lab. Then after about 15 minutes, he was ready to go. 

 

We drove to Walmart and Hubby went inside to get milk and tortillas and orange juice.

 

Drove home. Unloaded groceries. I vacuumed the truck out. It was full of pinecones pieces and cockleburrs. 

 

Hubby took the UTV down to Walmart to wash.

 

Hubby got back at 3:30PM. We watched a show call The Vast Of Night. It was pretty awful.

I was hurting, so took some aspirin and then had a hot bath. 

 

Wilson fell asleep on the sofa. 

 

SLEEPY WILSON

 

We watched The Lost City of Z. Not a very good movie, either.

 

 We watched The Road To Wellvine. Funny movie.

I drank 2 cups of wine. Plus took 3 Benadryl. I will SLEEP TONIGHT.

Got a report card for Tater tongiht at 8:09PM. 

 

 Went to bed at 9PM.

UTV RIDE ALL DAY

JANUARY 26 2021

SATURDAY

 

 

 

I was up at 7AM. Slept late because I drank a lot of Nyquil. 

Hubby had forgotten to put my clothes in the dryer, so I had no clean jeans to wear.

I made lattes & Nanogreens. Hubby had already made baked cheese egg for me in the new bakeware that I ordered from Amazon.

Hubby got dressed and ready for his UTV ride today. I was going to stay home with Wilson today, but I was bored and decided to come instead. 

I put on warm clothes. 2 Sweatshirts, boots, got Wilson dressed in his harness.

We got to the meeting spot about 10 minutes early. Was supposed to meet at 9:30AM. Only Irl & Scott were there. 

 

Our trip was 6 hours and 76 miles. It was a very long day. But fun.

So we rode up on the Flat Top Mesa and down the backside. Went in a huge loop. Found Mormon Mountain and went up on the mountain where the Cell Phone Towers are located. A plane went overhead where we were!

CELL PHONE TOWERS ON MOUNTAIN

Then we drove to the Natural Spring, but it was a 2 mile hike to it. Instead we hiked up to some Petroglyphs. Scott found some animal bones which ended up being a Mountain Goat. 

 

 

PETROGLYPHS ON ROCK WALL

 

 

We got home at 5PM. I could barely walk. Let Wilson outside to potty. Gave him some ham. 

 

I took a shower first. Washed my hair & dried it. I made hot latte. Took some aspirins.

Hubby took a shower with Wilson. I towel-dried Wilson, then took him outside to blow him dry. 

Hubby cleaned up the shower and I put clean dishes away.

We watched TV for the rest of the night.

 

We got a Tater Report Card at 9:12PM.

Hope he is learning well. We really miss him.

 

We went to bed at 9:30PM.

NO SLEEP FOR ME

FRIDAY

1-15-2021

 

 

 

 

Restless sleep all night.

 

Robert Cat bit & scratched my right foot while I was sleeping. I had my foot on top of the covers. I woke up at 3AM and could not go back to sleep.

I got up at 5AM and turned on the heat. Got dressed. Paid bills online. Checked FICO scores. 

Hubby got up at 6AM. 

I made lattes & Nanogreens. 

Hubby made meat breakfast for Wilson. Had to go find Wilson in the front bedroom; he did not want to eat, but as soon as we quit watching him, he ate all his food.

I put warm, clean water in the bird bath.

We sat on the sofa to watch morning News on TV. Saw LOTS of birds in the bird bath. 

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

I washed my hair in the front of house bathroom tub. Then I dried it. 

Hubby vacuumed and cleaned cat litter.

 

I finished up the Xmas decor that I had been working on. Hubby put it in boxes for next year. I cleaned off the dining room table of most the craft projects. 

 

XMAS TREE DECOR

 

 

Hubby worked in the garage for a while. 

 

We took a UTV ride to the Mesa with Wilson from 10AM to 2PM. Stopped at Flying J to get fuel in the UTV. Talked to Ralph. Hubby got Chesters Chicken. I sat with Wilson and choked on cigarette smoke from idiots parked at the Flying J.

 

Rode home, had lunch on the patio. 

Ordered a KWT Filter for the UTV.

Hubby took a nap at 3PM.

Amazon came at 4:30PM. I got some fairy lights for the hallway. Pans to make my cheese baked eggs in the air-fryer, and a mug. 

 

Hubby got his other tools.

Hubby's one set of tires came at 5:10PM. I sent an email to Discounted Wheel Warehouse about the other set of tires. 

We watched TV and went to bed at 10PM.

TOOTH PAIN FOR HUBBY / BUY LOTTERY TICKETS / DOG PARK

THURSDAY

1-14-2021

 

 

I am up most of the night, pottying and having diarrhea. Ate something bad?

 

Awake at 7AM. Horrible nightmares last night. 

 

Hubby is napping on the sofa. He said his tooth is bothering really bad. He needs it pulled. I told him to call a dentist TODAY!

 

I make lattes & Nanogreens.  

We got another Report card for Tater from yesterday.

Hubby polished his wheels. I picked up dog poo.

We watched News. 

Mike at the rental house in Idaho said they just got power back on at 3:45AM. 

 

I tried to do some string art, but my cuticles are so dry that I caught them and they bled. Will have to wait until my cuticles heal up.

Hubby called a Dentist in Beaver, UT and got an appointment with them for next week. 

Then he painted the backs of his wheels. 

I walked Wilson around the neighborhood (MY KNEE WAS NOT HURTING TODAY) and we went to the dog park and got the mail!

At home, I had gotten the Birthday gift for KR that I ordered, more crochet thread. 

Rich, the realtor, called and wanted to find out status on the loan. We sent another email to the loan guy to find out what is happening. Offer to purchase expires Jan 20.

I had to order wheels for Hubby.

We loaded Wilson into the truck and we drove to Scenic to pick up lottery tickets. Hubby said there was a small line, but he got all the tickets out of the self-service machine.

We then drove to the Dog Park and Wilson ran  around with a couple other dogs for a while. They were more interested in their owners' throwing a ball and did not want to play with Wilson. Wilson pottied and we walked around for a while. Then we left. 

 

WILSON STICKING HEAD OUT OF TRUCK WINDOW

 

Drove to the shop where Hubby picked up his welder. We then took it over to Todd's shop - and left it there with a guy. Todd came over to say hi. He is finally going on his Africa trip March 10. 

The internet went down on the phone, so I could not find any websites. 

Went to Walmart where Hubby parked in the front handicapped spot and he went inside to get milk, chex, fake crab, toilet paper. 

There was an old man that came out who could not find his car. He was wandering around in the parking lot the entire time that Hubby was in shopping.

We finally left after Hubby put the groceries in the back.

Drove home. Unloaded groceries. 

Hubby had to go BACK down to the shop and get some parts for the guy again.

Wilson and I stayed home. 

 

Hubby finally got back at 6PM. 

We sat outside with the firepit burning for a while. Saw a couple small planes. Wilson liked getting rubs while we were sitting. 

Came back inside at 8PM. 

 

Hubby watched Automotive shows until 9PM. 

We both went to bed at 9PM. I was hurting all over again.

 

Then I accidentally slammed my left thumb in the bathroom drawer. It started bleeding. Hubby went to get a bandaid for me. 

 

Restless sleep all night.

 

Cat bit & scratched my right foot while I was sleeping. I had it over the covers. I woke up at 3AM and could not go back to sleep.

I got up at 5AM and turned on the heat. Got dressed. Paid bills online. Checked FICO scores.
