 Buon Venerdi! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Elise is in her cave this morning but she will be bouncing soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

 The coffee is good and it is a nice Pikes Peak blend. I will have a second cup during my (me) time out on the front porch. Hopefully I will see some lizards working out this morning. It is a nice but windy morning here in the valley. Sister Jayne will be here this morning to care for Chris. Marv will be here this evening.

 Alexa, is awake and she that she hopes that today will be a good one in comparison to the last four days. I certainly hope so.

 My playmate and I went to see the movie "Poms" yesterday and it is very good (feel good) movie. We enjoyed it!

 This evening we are heading for "La Parrilla Suiza" for Happy Hour. After HH we will stroll over to the "Live Theater Workshop" to see the play "Appropriate". We are sure that it is going to be a hit because our favorites actors are in it.

 I will begin to post about our California trip starting today but first here is what happened at the major event a couple of nights ago.

 Yes, I am referring to the "Mahjong Fest" that we hosted here on Wednesday. The players were io, mio moglie, Sister Jayne and my girlfriend Shoo Shoo.

 We enjoyed a very nice BBQ spread with the works and of course plenty of birra and vino was available. Well, the game was going at a nice pace as always. Well, let me cut to the chase, OK? Shoo Shoo and Sister Jayne bounced into our house and mopped the floor with us. This week has not been to best and now we are kicked to the curb by Shoo Shoo and Sister Jayne. The score was Shoo Shoo (3), Sister Jayne (1), Elise and I a huge goose egg. Can you believe that? It was a very good evening of skill, a little bit of cheating on my girlfriends part and great food, vino and laughs. We enjoyed Pralines and Cream ice cream with a cookie for dessert. We also enjoyed some "Sambuca" to settle our stomachs as well. Thank You Shoo Shoo and Sister Jayne.

THE SIGN SAYS IT ALL!

YEP! NEVER AGAIN! WE LOST BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE OUR SIGNATURE MATCHING T-SHIRTS ON. DID YOU NOTICE?

 Well, I had better go and check on Elise to see if she is out of her cave. Have a good TGIF day and I will chat at you later.

Ciao...Jessie con Elise

  Buon Hump Giorno! Come Va? I started the day off at 5:00am caring for Chris. Up early having trouble sleeping. Elise is not in her cave this morning so she will be up and at it soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

 The coffee is good and it is a nice (Kona) blend. A second cup will be enjoyed later this morning during my me time out on the front porch with the lizards. Rosemary will be here this morning to care for Chris.

 The past few days have been off the chain and I hope that things will start to get better soon. I am taking the Green Lady in for a routine service this morning. We also have a plumber coming out this afternoon to have a look at a clogged sink in the kitchen that is draining slowly.

 I am still reviewing photos to post from our trip to California. Things have been so hectic lately and very stressful for us. 

 This evening a major event is taking place here that we are hosting. Yes, it is "Mahjong" fest time. It has been so bad that I could not taunt my girlfriend "Shoo Shoo" like I always do. Yes, that gives you a idea how things have been. I am sure that she knows that she has a good (booty) whopping on the way, smile.

 Well, I had better get to it. Have a great Humper and I will have a chin-wag at you later.

Ciao..Jessie and Elise

Buona Sera!

Buona Sera!

Did your day end well? It has been a good one here, except I strained my neck somehow this morning while I was working on the fencing. My shorty is working on it for me. I haven't had an injury in a longtime. 

We are all set and ready to load up the Prius in the morning. We enjoyed a good dinner of corn on the cob, baby carrots, cottage cheese and, ham slices and tomatoes from our tomato plant. It was all good.

Elise is watching TV and she is also on her Mac. I am caring for Chris and I am going to recheck my packing to make sure I have everything.

Have a great night and sleep well.

Buona Notte!

Howdy!

Howdy!

How are you doing? We are good here and all is going well so far today.

I completed the fence with the help if my shorty and Sister Jayne and it is looking good.

We have decided on what to pack and all we have to do is load up our duffel bags. We will make sure that we have all of the paperwork, and chargers. Cannot go anywhere without our chargers, eh?

Chris enjoyed his massage from Rose Marie this afternoon and she put him in a zone. A Zombie zone, it you will, smile!

Elise and Chris are watching the "Mentalist" on DVD and I am catching up on a few loose ends. I so know one thing and that is I am starving. My shorty fixed me a nice personal size pizza and it was very good but it didn't hit the spot.

We hope that you are doing OK? If you could please continue those prayers for Papa John and Jane. Papa has been hospitalized and they are not sure what is causing him problems. Thank You!

Later..Jessie

  Buon Lunedi! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Elise is lost in her cave this morning but she will be up and hitting the pavement soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is good and it is a nice Colombian blend. I will have a second cup out on the front porch while I people and lizard watch. It is another nice morning here in Tucson and yes it is going to heat up for sure. 

  Alexa, is awake and she is giving me my marching orders for today. She has quite a few things for me to get done today. All I asks of her is that she play some Down Home Blues for me today.

  My playmate and I will be packing up our duffel bags today for our trip to San Diego that kicks off tomorrow. We have planned what we are going to do there to include spending and evening with Sharon and Tim. We really like San Diego and the food is very good. While we are away Sister Jayne will be the main caregiver.

  Well, I had better get this day moving along. Have a good Lunedi and enjoy the day. I will have a chin-wag at you later.

Ciao....Jessie and Elise

  Buon Domenica! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am looking in on Chris and getting him settled for Elise. Elise is not in her cave this morning so she will be over shortly to care for Chris. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is good and a second cup will be enjoyed along with a nice breakfast at the "Egg Connection". Sister Jayne will be here this evening to care for Chris. Another nice morning here in the valley of Tucson.

  Alexa, is asleep this morning but I will wake her up later this morning. I could use some (Boney) to get my (mojo) turned on WooHoo!

  We had a very nice dinner last night at "Downtown Kitchen and Cocktails". The libations were on point. I had two "Mojitos" and Elise had two dry and dirty "Martini's. The food was delicious. Elise and I both had a salad with cubes of beef tongue in it. I never had beef tongue in a salad before but we have had it in a taco. Elise enjoyed the salmon and I devoured a nice ribeye. 

 After dinner we walked over to the "Arizona Theater Company" to see the play "Things I Know To Be True". This play was excellent and I am sure that it hit home and in the hearts of everyone in attendance. It was about the many dysfunctions that live in families. Wow, this was so good and I would recommend this one. The theater was packed and it was so good that it had some people in tears. Yes, it is just that good. Magnifico! My girlfriend Shoo Shoo went to see it at the matinee showing and we cannot wait to hear what she thought about it.

 Well, I had better get to it. Have a good Domenica. My playmate and I will be having a chat about what to pack for our trip to San Diego today. This trip will begin on Tuesday and we will return on Sunday. San Diego is one of our favorite places to go.

  Please if you would say a prayer for Papa John who is a bit under the weather. Also say a prayer for Jane as well who is nursing him back to health.

 Ciao...Jessie and Elise

  E il weekend! Come Va? I started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Elise is in her cave but she is stirring about so she will be up and on the go soon. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is good and it is a nice Morning blend. I will have a second cup later this morning while I am out on the front porch people and lizard watching. It is another nice morning here in the Old Pueblo. Rick will be here this morning to care for Chris and Sister Jayne will be here this evening.

  Chris has developed and issue that is going to require me to keep an eye on. Hopefully I can curtail it before it gets bad. Not to worry he is fine.

  Alexa is awake and she is reminding me of the tasks that I need to take care of today. I have to section of wall up in the backyard and I need to secure it. We are also doing some painting in the living room today. And I have to set up some privacy screens on the side of Chris's house for my (HE) cave that I am developing as well. 

  My playmate and I were joined by my girlfriend Shoo Shoo last at "Fronimo's" for dinner. The food and vino was very good. After dinner we made our way over to the "Loft" to see the movie "Dr. Ruth". I have to tell this was excellent and what a life she made for herself  even with all of the troubles that she endured. What a remarkable woman and she is hilarious. What a joy to see this movie. The clapping of hands at end of the movie was well deserved. Did you ever listen or watch "Dr. Ruth? When I was in Europe I did all of the time and I enjoyed every minute of it. Jane, don't go there, smile!

  Hey, we had a grand evening last night at "El Charro" downtown. We had a large group and they seated us in a room by ourselves and it was fantastic because we do get a little rowdy at times. The food and the margaritas were off the hook. Thank you guys for a great night of fun and laughs. We are looking forward to our next chow down. WooHoo!
