I put cream on my feet. 

We loaded the dog and were leaving at 4PM. There was a yellow corvette that was in front of the house. Some guy had to talk with Hubby. 

We left and drove to get Pedicures at Chrome Nail Bar. There was an ambulance that came out of a side street as we were driving on Sandhill Boulevard. Wilson was sitting on my lap. He let out a Whooo! As the Ambulance had already passed us. It was so cute. Surprised both of us!!! 

WILSON RIDING IN TRUCK

 

Got our Pedicures, left Wilson in the truck with water to drink. 

 

PEDICURE BEFORE GETTING HOT TOWEL

 

Out of there in 40 minutes and took Wilson over to the park for potty and a walk. 

Drove to Walmart and Hubby ran inside to get milk, rotisserie chicken, tortilla shells. 

At home, we unloaded everything. I let Wilson out for potty. Went outside with him. He tried barking at the neighbors. I ran around with him outside.

UTV RIDE

 SUNDAY

Up at 7AM. Made bed. 

Went to the kitchen and made lattes & Nanogreens. Baked my cheese egg in the air-fryer.

Hubby made eggs for Wilson and fed him. He was not too enthused.

We ate breakfast and watched morning News on TV. SO depressing.

I showed Hubby that we got another Report Card for Tater, so that made him feel better. Tater has not been thrown into a barn and made to freeze.

At 10AM, Hubby finally gets dressed and we get ready for the UTV ride. Find extra Data Cable for the UTV that Tater broke off the other day. Find all our warm clothing to ride. 2 Sweatshirts, blankets, gloves, scarves, hats. 

Hubby already set up a sling in the UTV for Wilson to ride. 

 

 We get ready to leave and Dave & Carmen drive by and we talk for a while. It gets colder. The sun is not shining. It is cloudy.

We start out finally and it is VERY cold. Wilson really does not like the sling. He hits his head on the bar. Just as we are ready to leave the road, I decide not to go. I am TOO COLD. We drive back and walk Wilson in a park. 

 

The zip-tie holding the sling breaks. I have to hold Wilson on my lap the whole way home. We go thru the back way which is quicker. Hubby kicks up sand on me and Wilson. It is a horrible ride. 

At home, my knee hurts already. I put Wilson out to potty and give him some sausage as he did not eat his breakfast.

I potty again.

While in the garage, Hubby nails more hearts for me. He puts away the UTV. It is all dirty now. 

We load Wilson in the Dually and drive to Desert Springs to buy Lottery tickets at the Flying J.

Then we drive back to Mesquite Flying J and get meat sticks there. Hubby picks up chicken for us. 

At home, we eat chicken and watch Automotive shows. Hubby has the music playing quietly instead of listening to the show. 

I fall asleep TWICE. 

I wake up to darkness. Put away dishes. Put away laundry.

 

We watched Automotive shows. Then we watched My Name Is Trinity. 

Watched a Buying House show. They showed the people 3 homes, they pick 1.

We finally slept better without Tater in the bed. Wilson slept on the floor in his dog bed as usual. Robert slept between us all night.

Cats were playing at midnight, making noise which woke me briefly.

I had to get up and potty a couple times.

Up at 7AM, Hubby went to make eggs for breakfast. He made burritos. I got up and made the bed. Then I started lattes & Nanogreens. I started my baked cheese egg. 

Then I went to take a shower. Used the new curtain we had put up in the shower. It is much warmer. I had also turned on the new heater we purchased yesterday. Much more comfortable in the shower.

 We watched morning News on TV. 

 

WILSON ON SOFA

 

Then Hubby got dressed. He made a "Sling" for Wilson to ride in the UTV.

 

I put flowers in my "Ball Jar String Art" 

 

 

I lost the Walmart receipt and can't record my award points for the Starbucks purchase. 

Started laundry. 

Miriam Barlow is the little girl that is training our dog in Newcastle, UT. She sent us a "Report Card" for Tater.

We loaded Wilson in the truck and went to town. Stopped at $1 Dollar Store. But they were so crowded, so I immediately left. 

We saw a bunch of motorcycle riders in the parking lot behind the Taco place. They had a huge American flag on one of the motorcycles. 

We drove over to Mesquite Business Center. Suzy was driving on the road. We waved. Saw Pat there. Hubby mailed the box to KR. 

Then we drove back to Walmart. Hubby dropped me off to shop. I got more chalk paint, bath salts, denture cleaner. 

I walked out to the Car Wash where Hubby was washing the truck with Wilson inside. I went looking for change at the vacuum area. I found 11 cents!

We came home and unloaded stuff. I put everything away. Put away the pots & pans that I had washed from Costco yesterday.

I was exhausted. Could barely get my chicken salad and make latte. Dragged myself to the sofa. I told Hubby that we could not do UTV ride today. It was already 1PM. Too late.

We watched movies on TV. The Transporter 2, Deja Vu, My Name is Nobody. 

I took a hot bath. Went to bed at 11PM.

Went to bed at 10PM.

TATER TO DOG TRAINING / KNEE HURTS ALL DAY

FRIDAY

Up at 7AM. Hubby stayed in bed. 

 

I fed the cats tuna and shredded cheese. They were crying for breakfast. Miaow! 

I made lattes & Nanogreens. Poured orange juice for myself. Made baked cheese egg.  

Hubby got up at 7:45AM and made eggs for the dogs. Made several burritos for himself.

He sat on the sofa, ate his burrito and drank his latte. We watched morning News on TV.

 

I stripped the bed of the sheets and washed them.

Hubby took a shower at 8:30AM. He washed Tater, too. I dried Tater off with a towel.

Tater went into our bedroom and laid down on the comforter. I need to wash the comforter.

 

I made the bed with new, clean sheets. 

 

I put the other laundry in the washer. Put the sheets in the dryer.

 

Dogs in Dually. Take Tater's bed, leash, collar, bones, toy, meds

 

Stop at ANIMAL FARM to get dog food. 

 

Drive to St George. 

 

Pick up steel at THE STEEL YARD. I walk the dogs. 

 

Drive to get fuel at the station around the corner. Have to wait FOREVER. Idiot guy getting fuel in 2 slip tanks & truck. Drive to other side. Dumb guy in front of  us can't figure out how to use credit card. Then talks to other guy before leaving. Somebody behind us honks! Idiots.

 

Drive to park. Drop Tater off. He is being taken to live for 2 weeks with little Mormon girl in Newcastle. I urge them to give me a physical address. We just paid you a lot of money, we are meeting at a park? and you are taking our dog WHERE?

 

Then we drive to MICHAELS. Waste of time. They still have NOTHING on their shelves. Looks like the place has been wiped out. 

 

I try to buy things at $1 DOLLAR STORE. There are 25 people in line, reaching to the back of the store. Only 1 cashier. She apologizes that her other cashier went to lunch. I put the stuff back and leave.

 

Hubby is circling the parking lot. He picks me up.

 

We drive to HARBOR FREIGHT and he can return his tool as it broke. I wait in the truck with Wilson. Give him water and dried Oberto steak pieces. 

 

Then we drive to COSTCO. I walk Wilson again. He potties. Put him back in the truck. We shop at Costco. People (mostly white women) are walking around the store with masks pulled down, mostly around their chins. What assholes. Stupid Republican Utah. They are all going to die of the disease. We make our purchases and leave. I am never coming back to Costco again. Rather shop online.

 

We drive to the other side of town on Bluff Street to get printer ink refills at ST GEORGE INK AND TONER. Hubby goes inside. I wait with Wilson in the truck.

 

Then we go to a wood-fired pizza that we see every time but forget to stop. BLAZE PIZZA. It is really good. Just like MOD pizza back in Idaho. We eat our pizza in the truck. I share little pieces of chicken with Wilson.

We leave and drive home. On the way, Wilson gets in the back and sleeps.

In Desert Springs, we stop and Hubby goes inside to purchase the Lottery tickets.

In Mesquite, we have to stop at Walmart to get paint, more shredded cheese, and milk.

We check out and leave. Drive home.

Unloaded groceries. I put most of it away. I make a hot latte. My knee is killing me. I have been wearing 2 knee braces and the velcro knee brace over that.

Start washing the comforter. Hopefully it dries in 3 hours before we go to bed.

The girl training Tater sent us his first Report Card!

 

We watched a movie called Flawless. It is pretty bad. 

Wilson sleeps on the sofa with us. He is quiet without Tater here. Hope Tater is doing OK.

 

I take a hot bath at 9:30PM to help my leg.

He fixed them and I told him I would not come Friday, but would come back in 2 weeks. Andy had raised his prices in the New Year and my nails will now cost $45. I had Hubby give me an extra $10 when he came back.

 

 BLUE NAILS

Hubby had dropped KR's stuff to mail off at Pat's UPS Store. He mailed the snowman string art and the Christmas snowflake we forgot to send her.

We drove to the dog park at 12:15 and let the dogs play for quite a while.

 

Tater At Dog Park

 

A big black Poodle named Ramey was trying to run around with Tater and mount him! Tater barked at him several times, but there was no fight. I talked to the owner and she was nice. Picked up dog poo with me.

Then we left, the dogs were tired. 

On the way home, we stopped at the Food Truck at Lee's Liquors to get the "Artisan" brick-oven baked pizza. It was $15 for "meatlovers". It stank awful and was not baked all the way thru. The crust was thin like paper. It was AWFUL. Never again. Too bad. This city needs a good pizza place. The nice food truck lady did give me some small treats for the dogs.

At home, there was no mail yet when we checked. Let the dogs go potty outside. We ate the AWFUL pizza. 

 

Hubby took all our Xmas outside decor and lights down as our neighbor, Dave had taken his down. Dave came over to talk. I told him it was his fault because Hubby said that Dave is the neighborhood "barometer" for leaving decor up & taking it down. Dave laughed.

Hubby took Tater and went to the dump with all the cardboard boxes. 

Then he got home and decided to go mount his new wheels and tires that he bought. He took Tater with him to Roadrunner Tires out by Flying J.

I put dirty dishes in dishwasher.

I then sent an email to Harbor Freight because we STILL have NOT received the gift certificate that I ordered Hubby on 12-21-2020. It was supposed to get here within 5-7 days, but they have no tracking on the order. 

Still no response from Panda on why our gift certificates don't work.

YOGI cleaned windows until 11AM. 

 

 

I had to go out again and pick up poo.

I vacuumed. I steam cleaned floors. I did laundry. Washed comforter and other clothes. I put dirty dishes and started dishwasher.

Tater was following me around, so I had to do everything twice on the steam cleaning. Then he had to go drink water and make a mess thru the house with dripping water. He wanted out. He wanted in. I was getting so tired.

Finally sat down at 1PM and had lunch. I hurt everywhere. I need a house cleaner.

I cleaned off the counter, cleaned up breakfast dishes, and started the dishwasher.

I finished the Large snowman. Good thing I waited until morning as the dark black was actually a blue and would not have looked good on the snowman hat! I can't distinguish colors at night here. Not enough light for my old eyes!

I paid bills. 

Hubby got dressed and started laundry.

Still doing bookwork at 1:30PM and I get hungry. Hubby makes me chicken salad. He opens up the shrimp that we were supposed to have last night...

Drove to Wendy's for burgers, chicken nuggets & french fries for dogs. Hubby ordered a sausage/pepperoni pizza at Flying J. We waited 10 minutes for it.

At home, we unloaded groceries. I made tea. We ate the pizza. 

 

Hubby got on the phone to fix his Health Insurance after having Ambetter cancel him and being tole he is eligible for Medicaid due to his Disability. They don't know anything.

I verified that my Ambetter payment was made. Got written verification.

Hubby watched Automotive shows. Sun was going down at 4PM. It was getting cold again.

Spencer was sent his "Quarantine" Card game. I told them that USPS had delivered it.

Hubby and I watched some of The Expanse again. 

We watched the NY Times Square Ball drop at 10PM. Celebrated the New Year. I went to bed at 10:30PM. Hubby stayed up for a while.
