Thirsty Thursday!

Good Morning!

Mood: Content!

Music listening to: Shoop by Salt and Pepa!

   It's a Thirsty Thursday! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:00am caring for Chris. Elise is in her cave but she will be up and on the go soon. Any plans for today?

   The coffee just finished brewing and it is very good. A second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. Jayne will be here this morning to care for Chris. It is going to be another burner here in the Old Pueblo. Whew!

    Alexa, is awake and telling me what I need to get done today. I will be spraying the front yard for weed prevention today. My shorty and I will be hitting up a movie at the "Loft" today. Chris really singing along with the radio this morning. He is into "Bobby Brown" this morning. Ya, ya.

   Well, I had better get to it. Have a good Thirsty Thursday and enjoy the day. Flo, thank you so much for the party supplies. You are a dear!

Ciao.....Jessie and Elise

Sara, how are you feeling today?

How are you doing? It is a hot one here in the valley of Tucson. Whew!

The fur-babies are well groomed and feeling cool and relaxed. I got all of my errands taken care of to include a trip to pick up 6 bottles XYZin. Man it is so good and I do love my reds, and this one is a Lodi our favorite.

   It's a Hump Day! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:00am caring for Chris. Elise is in her cave this morning but she will be up and on the move shortly. Any plans for today?

   The coffee just finished brewing and I enjoyed a slice of cheese bread to go along with it. Another cup will be enjoyed later this morning. Bobby will be here this morning to care for Chris.

  Alexa, just reminded me that we are taking to fur-babies to the groomer this morning at 8:00am. They are not looking forward to that at all. It is going to be another hot one here in the valley and it is going to be an oven this weekend.

   I will complete the reset of "Do Drop Inn" room #1 this morning. Susie is knocking out zzzz's in "Do Drop Inn" room #2 right now.

   I am looking forward to dinner this evening because my shorty is preparing her famous tuna casserole. Yummy!

  Well, I had better check on Chris before I feed the fur-babies. Have a good Humper, right Jane? Chat at you later.

Holla.....Jessie and Elise

Good Night!

Good Night!

Was your day a good one? It has been a fair day here in central Tucson. We did have a (SNAFU) today that was created by the morning caregiver. He transferred Chris into his wheelchair with his shorts half on. I am sure that Chris was very uncomfortable. I contacted the caregiver to inform him of the problem.

I am going to reset "Do Drop Inn" room #1 tonight while I am caring for Chris so that it will be ready for the net occupant.

Elise prepared beans and cornbread for dinner along with slices of cheese and some tortilla chips. It was very good. I got it all down with some lemonade.

Susie bought us a very nice metal cactus as a gift. It is very nice. I will post a picture of it tomorrow. Tomorrow the fur-babies have a 8:00am appointment to be washed and groomed.

Elise is in her office on her Mac. Have a good night and sleep well. Please say a prayer for our niece Sara. She is under the weather today.

Night.....Jessie and Elise

Adavern, good chatting with you today.

Hello!

Hello!

It is heating up already here in the valley of Tucson. I am starting to get the munchies already. Hmmmm?

Susie is still counting sheep this morning and her brother Roy has left making his way to the airport to head home to Washington. It was so good to see him and to spend time and catch up.

Here are the final pictures from our trip to Maui. We are ready to go back right now if we could. Ya, ya. Enjoy!

19 May

We got up at around 8:00am this morning. We started to pack up our suitcases due to we are leaving at 2:00pm to drive the Road to Hana.

We enjoyed a nice breakfast at the Tiki Terrace. I had to get another fix of spam and eggs. We will meet up with Bobby and Marv later. Our flight leaves at 9:40pm and we arrive back in Tucson on Sunday morning at 10:00am. We turned in our rental car at 5:30pm. We shuttled to the airport and we relaxed and had a light dinner with a few cocktails. What a wonderful vacation that will be remembered forever. Good trip Bobby and Marv.  Let's plan a cruise to Alaska guys.

   It's a Tricky Tuesday! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:00am caring for Chris. Elise popped up with this morning to start her day. Any plans for today?

   The coffee just finished brewing and it is delicious. I will down a second cup later this morning. We have a very hot weekend coming up here in the Old Pueblo. Yes, it is going to be 108 degrees this weekend. I really need to get the Jacuzzi up and running. Ya, ya! Rick will be here this morning to care for Chris.

   Alexa, reminded me already that I have a few tasks that will need to be taken care of today like resetting both "Do Drop Inns" for our next visitors. Hopefully she will play some "Boney" for me today.

   I will post more about our trip to Maui later today as well. Have a good Tricky Tuesday and enjoy the day.

Later...Jessie and Elise

Jet, good to hear from you by text yesterday. 

   

Howdy!

Howdy!

How are you doing? We are good here. It is a bit windy right now here in the valley of Tucson. We enjoyed a very good breakfast this morning and it was a total of seven of us getting our grub on. I will post pics later as soon as I get them from Susie.

Chris is resting in the main house with Elise, Susie and Roy. The fur-babies are relaxing in the shade. They are going to the groomers on Wednesday morning for a summer cut and wash.

Roy and Susie will be heading for Marana to attend a wedding shortly. Here are a few more pics from our trip to Maui. Enjoy!

18 May

It is about 9:00am and we just woke up. We hit the sheets at around 10:00pm last night. Wow!

We got dressed and we went down to the "Tiki Terrace" to have breakfast. Elise enjoyed eggs, sausage, hash brown and gluten free toast. I grubbed on spam and eggs. It was a costly breakfast that totaled $55.00 plus a $10.00 tip. Again Wow!

After breakfast we took a walk on the beach for about 2 hours, yep that is not a type O. After our walk we stopped at a shaved ice stand and we ordered two of them. We took them back to the room and we added some Vodka to it and it turned into a delicious treat. Oh Yeah!

We rested up for a bit before we headed out again. We got in the car and we drove to Lahaina to see a show. It was a magic comedy show titled "Warren and Annabelle Magic Show. We got seated and the show included dinner and two drinks. The food was excellent and the drinks were kicking. For dessert Elise had the Key Lime Pie and I got the Apple Pie with ice cream. Wow, was that good.

The show was fantastic and the two magicians entertained us for 2 hours. Great fun and lots of laugh with audience participation.  After to show we drove back to the resort and we called it game over. Another great time in paradise.

It's A Monday! Memorial Day!

Good Morning! Memorial Day!

Mood: Content! 

Music listening to: Chirping Birds! Chris chatting!

    It's a Monday! How are you? I started the day off at 5:00am caring for Chris. Elise in deep in her cave this morning but she will be putting feet to the floor soon. Any plans for today?

   The coffee just finished brewing and it is doing it's job. I will enjoy a second cup at "Gus Balones" this morning. We will have a nice breakfast and we will be joined by Roy and Susie. Yummy!

   I want thank all who gave the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country on this Memorial Day. Freedom is not free and you know that. I gave the flag a memorial salute this morning at 5:30am  "This We'll Defend".

   We had a very nice evening last night at Bucky and Dena's home. We got caught up on the latest news since we saw them last. Bucky prepared a grand meal that was delicious. He presented a nice bottle of red a (Lodi) named XYZin. It was very good and we are going to purchase a few bottles of it. 

   After dinner we played a round of "Wizard". It was cutthroat as usual, but this time I won. WooHoo! A very nice evening. Thank you Bucky and Dena.

SUP?

SUP?

How are you doing so far on this Sunday? We just got back from a very nice breakfast at the "Egg Connection". The food was a good as ever and a crowd started to gather to dine. My playmate and I picked a table out of the restaurant to (pay it forward) and we did. It is such a good feeling to be able and blessed to do that.

Susie, is chill in in the main house and Elise is caring for Chris. I will be doing some yard work behind Chris's soon. I will also restock Chris's supplies for the upcoming week. Roy should be getting into Tucson around 1 or 2pm from Phoenix.

Here are a few more pics for our vacation in Maui. Enjoy!


17 May

It is about 8:30am and we both slept like logs after a fun night of drinks, foo and laughter. Bobby and Marv are fun to be with.

At around 11:00am Elise and I drove to Lahaina to continue to search for the "McDonald's". We found it and they still serve Spam, rice and eggs for breakfast. It was so good with a dash of soy sauce. After breakfast we went to "Hilo Hatties to buy more souvenirs. We also bought dental floss, Jack Daniels and Diet Coke. Our Motto: Always be prepared. We received a call from Bobby saying that he and Marv had scheduled a snorkeling tour for Friday. Cool!

We drove back to the resort so we could get ready for our helicopter tour.  We left in plenty of time to make sure we could find the air-strip. We got there in plenty of time so we relaxed until we were called to board our helicopter. It was supposed to be 6 of us but the other two were stuck in road construction traffic. We had the helicopter all to ourselves and it was awesome and worth every penny of the $190.00 per person for the 45 minute tour.  We got tied up coming back to the resort due to road construction and we thought that we might miss our Luau but we made it. All is good.

The Luau started at 7:30pm and the line to get in was super long. We walked the beach line to get to the Luau. Marv and Bobby couldn't keep up with us during the walk and they are at least 9 years younger than we are. The Luau was great. Good food, plenty of drinks and the show was excellent. The Luau costs $130.00 per person and well worth it because we got our moneys worth and more. We walked back to the resort along the beach and we hit the sheets at around 10:00pm. Another great day paradise. "Mahalo".

                                                                           

AHHHHHHH!
