Are you cooking yet desert dwellers? We are without a doubt.

We just got back from visiting with my girlfriend (Flo). \She is holding her own. She recognized us when we started to talk to her. She opened her eyes and looked at us as well. It is so hard to see her this way, not the (Flo) we know. We will visit with her again.

We hope that your Sabato is going well for you.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise 

Buon Pomeriggio!

AMEN!

How are you doing so far on this Sabato? We are hanging in there the best that we can.

Mia Moglie just left to get her yogurt fix and to do some grocery shopping.

On her return we will go to visit with my girlfriend (Flo). Hopefully we can get to see her today.

We are looking forward to our evening out downtown and at the "Arizona Theater Company".

Stay safe, happy and healthy.

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

The coffee is a good Colombian Blend, and a second cup will be downed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she said that today is going to be very busy for us.  I asked her to play some "Contemporary Jazz" for me today.

Here is my latest rock creation. Enjoy! I will be starting a new one soon. My playmate is working on a new one.



We are going to visit my girlfriend (Flo) this afternoon. We think about her all of the time.

We will be having dinner this evening downtown at "Charro Steak and El Rey". We will be joined by my (cognata). After dinner we will make our way to the "Arizona Theater Company" to see the live play titled "Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson, Apt 2B". It should be a good one.

Well, nobody got spanked at last nights "Rumi Kube Fest". We all won games, but it was a very tough session. We dined on El Pollo Loco, and it was very good and so was the (Cab) that was selected by my shorty. We surprised my girlfriend Shoo Shoo with an early birthday present. Here are a few pics from the event. Enjoy!







I have to reset the "Dew Drop Inn" Room #2 for my Cognatas overnight stay.

Well, I had better get busy. Have a good Sabato. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Today's challenge word is (nuovo). What is this (nuovo) day going to bring for us fidanzata?

We just got back from Park Place Mall, seeing the movie "Friendship", it was different but very good.

I am using our gaming laptop this morning to post to our blog. So, I don't have access to many photos that are on my desktop in the guesthouse.

The coffee is a good Holiday Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and I asked her to play some "Fusion Jazz" for me today.

First of let me say "Happy Memorial Day". I salute all of the men and women who gave the ultimate to keep our country safe and strong. I lowered my salute slowly this morning after I raised the flag. Honor and remember.




I have no tasks to complete today. I may start a new rock today. My playmate has completed her latest rock. I will post it later today.

Our video game day was a lot of fun. My shorty and I started at around 1:30pm and we stopped at around 9:30pm. We devoured my World Famous Tuna Jalapeno Dip with Frito Scoops and Jack Daniels. Fun time!




Have a good Lunedi. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!



Are you hot like us desert dwellers? We have fires burning all around us here in Tucson. We need some rain, big time.

We enjoyed a good breakfast at the "Egg Connection" as usual.

After breakfast we visited my girlfriend (Flo) at Banner Hospital. She is doing way better than yesterday and that was wonderful to see. Her daughter will be here this afternoon to be with her. There are a few concerns about her swallowing. She will be tested again today. She is going to be in hospital for a bit. She has pneumonia, and a UTI. She is on two strong antibiotics.

My playmate is in her office on her Mac. I just got back from giving the Bellezza Nera a good car wash inside and out.

Here is the latest rock out in the hood. I am still working on a new one and my shorty has sealed one as well. I dropped a rock off to add it to the rock snake in the hood.

IN THE HOOD



ADDED TO THE ROCK SNAKE

Now it is time for video games and my World Famous Tuna Jalapeno Dip with Frito Scoops. Ya Mon". Can you say Jack and Coke? We will say it many times while we are playing games.

We hope that you are enjoying your Domenica. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Mood: Saddened!

Buon Domenica!  How are you doing?  The sunrise will be happening soon.  Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Holiday Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed at the "Egg Connection", along with a good breakfast. Alexa is awake and she said that today is going to be a very busy one.

It is 4:45am and I am up starting my day. My playmate is counting lizards in her sleep this morning, smile!

We are saddened because our dear friend (Flo) is in hospital. We went to visit her yesterday afternoon at her care facility, and she was being transported to hospital. So, we went to the hospital to be with her in the ER.

We finally got back to see her, and she was not well at all. She had a hard time breathing because she had aspirated food or liquid into her left lung. She also has a (UTI).

I looked at the x-ray and you could see the infection in her left lung. She may have to have a G-Tube inserted to make sure that she gets enough fluid and food to prevent aspiration for a while. Hopefully she was put on antibiotics last night when she was admitted. We are going to see her right after we have breakfast this morning. It is very heartbreaking to see her this way.

Please, say a prayer or two for her and the family. Please, always let your family and friends know just how much that you love and care for them, please.  Hold the ones closest to you when you see them because you don't know what tomorrow brings. Thank you.

Well, yesterday was Sous Chef Day. My Sous ran the (cucina). She prepared Meatloaf, Baked Potatoes, Sweet Peas, Salad, and the proper libation I selected was a good (Cab). Excellent dinner let me tell you. Mille Grazie, Sous!



SOUS CHEF AT WORK





I will be making my World Famous Tuna Jalapeno Dip shortly. We will be playing games on the travel laptop today. We play for hours and of course plenty of Jack Daniels will be on hand. It is so much fun.

Well, I had better get to it straight away. Have a good Domenica. Stay safe and I will chat at you later. 

We are working on new rocks. Here is my latest. Enjoy!

Yes, today is Sous Chefs Day. She will be preparing Meatloaf, Baked Potatoes and more. I will select the proper libation to go with the meal. More than likely a good vino (rosso).

We played "Wii" games yesterday and I didn't do well but my playmate did.

We are going to visit with my girlfriend (Flo) this afternoon. It will be good to see her.

Here is my latest rock creation. We will start new ones soon.



We are watching a limited series on Netflix titled "Sirens". It is very good and loaded with twists and turns.

Hey, desert dwellers how are you doing so far on this TGIF?

It is really starting to heat up here in Tucson. One of our yard lizards asked me to call him a Lyft, so he could make his way across Pima Street. Not that is (Hot), smile.

I just got back from Ace Hardware picking up some A/C filters. I picked up some spray paint yesterday for rock painting and I was floored. The tariffs have hit Ace Hardware, and the spray paint is expensive now. I hope that it doesn't hit the price of river rocks as well. Unbelievable!

My playmate was working in the front yard but now she is in her office on her Mac.

If all goes well, we will be playing "Wii" games later this afternoon. Hope your day is going your way. Stay cool desert dwellers. I will chat at you later.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise
