We enjoyed a very good breakfast at the "Egg Connection", and the food was as good as ever.






GETTING OUR GRUB ON! 



GRUBBIN' AND THAT GINGERBREAD COOKIE IS STILL WORKING!

We are taking it easy today because this is the Anniversary of Chris's Memorial Celebration of Life. Today brings back a lot of memories of that day because it was so special to us. A day does not go by without the thought of Chris. I was looking at his pictures from the Celebration, and it was wonderful.

Mia Moglie and I are going to touch up the Memorial Rocks that are around his tree.

We are watching football for the most part of the day. Up until when we leave for the wedding. 

Enjoy the day and stay safe.

Ciao...Jessie con Elise

Buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!

How goes it desert dwellers? Have you filled your Sabato with things to do today?

My playmate is off walking Park Mall, and after that I am sure that she will get her froyo fix before she goes grocery shopping.

I just got back from running an errand on the Eastside. While I was out, I gave the "Bellezza Nera" a good washing.

Today will be loaded with football games. Go Cats! And the Wolverines.

We were informed that our neighbor's car was broken into during the night. I adjusted the motion zones on our security cameras. If the break in was from the north it didn't pick it up. Azalya didn't bark because she is on calming meds to lessen her barking. She is a very good watch dog, and she will let us know if someone is near the house. Our alarm went off two nights ago when someone opened up our mailbox at around 2:00am. We got up to take a look and there was a guy across the street just standing there. He took off when we opened to door to see what was going on.

Well, I had better go and get ready for some football. We will be attending a wedding tomorrow at around 3:00pm.

Stay safe and well.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Buon Sabato!  How are you doing? It is a nice, sunny morning here in the valley of Tucson.  Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Morning Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she said that I don't have any tasks to complete today.  I asked her to play some "Fusion Jazz" for me today.

My playmate has completed her latest rock, and I will post it later today. Here is my latest rock creation. Enjoy!



We enjoyed a nice visit yesterday from Javier. He was the original caregiver for Chris. It was good to see him. Elise showed him some of Chris's Memorial items and photos. She gave him a bag of items from the Memorial. Javier and I worked together at Pima Health Systems for many years.




Tomorrow is going to be a day of sadness and reflection because it is the anniversary of Chris's Memorial. It doesn't seem like it was a year ago.

We enjoyed our evening at "La Parilla Suiza". The Happy Hour snacks were good and so were the margaritas. After Happy Hour we made our way over to the "Live Theater Workshop". We saw the live play "Silent Sky". It was very good.

Here are a few more photos from our vacay in LA. Enjoy!
