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.
