Woke up at 6AM. Hubby was already in the kitchen make breakfast for the dogs.

I got dressed and made the bed. Went out to the kitchen to make latte for Hubby, tea/Nanogreens for myself.

Hubby cleaned cat litter. I vacuumed.

Hubby left for the shop at 8:30AM. 

Tater stayed home. His leg has been bothering him and he is limping.

I slept most of today. Trying to recover from KRL's trip & going to Vegas.

Up at 7AM. Made the bed. Fed the dogs & cats. Cleaned up cat litter. 

Made coffee for KRL. Started laundry. Put laundry in dryer. 

Took KRL to Golden West for breakfast. I drove the White Jeep and they were yelling at me about driving and where to park. It was very crowded at Golden West. About 9AM and all the old people were out eating. It was too smokey in the front room. There were no seats in the back room.

We decided to go eat breakfast at the Casablanca Cafe. Hubby drove instead. We had Valet park the Jeep. Teased Hubby about forgetting the Jeep keys in the Jeep with the valet. 

Ate breakfast. It was pretty good. I had small stack pancakes and only ate a little bit. KRL had an omelette. 

We drove back home and got ready to drive to Las Vegas.

Could not access Ticketmaster via cell phone for tickets. KRL was upset. Paper tickets Not Good Enough! Finally had help from employees who had our tickets online and could find by name. Then had to wait for a reservation that had a bar cart rolled onto the platform. Good thing I did not reserve that. Looked cheap. Drunk, loud people. We waited for the 3rd platform and got on it.

Could not find access to KA theatre. Waited in line for 20 minutes in a line that ALL employees said was KA theatre. But it turned out it was some Comedy Show. A guy in line recognized Hubby from RMOR. We tried to use our tickets, but stupid employee needed supervisor help and we were told it was wrong theatre. Fortunately, we had enough time to get to other theatre. KRL got upset. Some helpful girl who was NOT an employee told us to just keep turning right and we would find the theatre. Very nice.

Too cold for Bellagio fountains. Went to Valet at MGM Grand to pick up FMF.

Hubby was hungry. Drove to 595 Craft & Kitchen Bar on Rainbow Boulevard. It was a dump. I was hurting too badly to sit on bar stools and they had no warm drinks. Hubby ordered food. I left to go out and sit in the FMF and wait for them. I turned on the heated seat and heating up high. I took several aspirins. 

Hubby & KRL came out later and we drove home.
