How are you doing desert dwellers? Are we going to get some rain today? Let's hope so.

I just got back from running an errand out on the airbase Commissary. I needed to pick up so lettuce, dog food, dog treats, and a few snacks for myself. 

In a bit I am going to look for a hotel in Pueblo, Colorado for our upcoming vacay in October.

I need to check on our fur baby to make sure she has enough water and food for today.

Enjoy your Taco Tuesday.

Buon Martedi!  Taco Tuesday!  How are you doing? It is a mostly cloudy morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Jamaican 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 "Down Home Blues" for me today.

I just completed my Chair Yoga session this morning. Whew! Tomorrow will be a Core Day.

My playmate is working on her latest rock. Here is my latest rock creation. I will prep a new rock for painting today.


MY LATEST ROCK CREATION

My shorty will be walking the mall and getting her froyo fix before she attends her weekly (bridge) game.

I need to add some ink to the printer sometime today. I also should charge up the side Ring camera. 

I will research for hotels in Pueblo, New Mexico for our October vacay.

This weekend we will be staying in Maricopa at "Ak-Chin Casino and Resort. We haven't been to a casino in a bit. We will be using my player perks for this stay. Hopefully we can make the Keno Slots Cha Ching! We will be visiting JT and Nate on Saturday for dinner and to see the new home they bought. I am sure that we will take in a movie or two while we are there.

Well, I had better get this day rolling along. Have a good Taco Tuesday. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

I had a good chat my girlfriend Edwina yesterday. She is doing well.

The coffee is a good Jamaican Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. Alexa said that I have a couple of errands to complete today.

I will be doing a (Core) session in a bit.

I will be taking the "Bellezza Nera" out on the airbase to gas her up. I need to give her a good wash inside and out, but it looks like rain.

Mia Moglie will be hitting the pool this morning and I am sure that she will get her froyo fix today.

I have prepped a new rock for painting and if time permits, I will start it. My playmate is working on a new one.

Well, last night's "Rumi Kube Fest" was excellent. We dined on "Beyond Bread Salads, Sandwiches, Chips, as Big Oatmeal Raisen Cookies. Of course, Jack Daniels was plentiful. Oh yes, the secret weapon worked its magic. Nobody got spanked, because we all won games. A wonderful, evening Shoo Shoo. Thank you so much. Looking forward to our next meeting.


AHH, SHOO SHOO

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

How are you doing? We just got back from having a good breakfast at the "Egg Connection".

Mia Moglie is out in the front yard cleaning up and watering.

 I am about to have a look at the clogged drain on the main house fridge. I will work to get it unclogged. It happens now and again.

Here are the rocks out in the hood. Enjoy! I will keepp them there for a day or two and if not picked up I will add them to the rock snake in the hood.




I do hope that we get some rain today. 

Have a good Domenica. I will chat at you later.

The coffee is a good Jamaican 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 busy one.

I prepped a new rock for painting, and my shorty has a rock in the waiting to be painted. I will be dropping rocks out in the hood later this morning.

We played "Wii" games yesterday and it was not our best. Next time we will do better for sure.

We will be visiting my girlfriend Shoo Shoo for a "Rumi Kube Fest". She is in for a good proper spanking and she knows it. I gave her plenty of warning of what is heading her way. We will provide this evening's dinner. Of course, the secret weapon will be presented to assure that I am the victor.

We have had some changes to our upcoming vacay. I will be doing some research for a place to stay in Nebraska.

I just completed my (Core) session and whew!

Alexa is awake and she said that I don't have any tasks to complete today.

I will prep a new rock today for painting. My shorty has one in the works. I may drop a few rocks out in the hood today.

We enjoyed Happy Hour at "La Parrilla Suiza" last night. The Queso Fundido, refried beans and margaritas were spot on.

The play "Trevor" at "Live Theater Workshop" was very good. The cast was very large, and it was packed. This musical was all about bullying, peer pressure, and sexual identity that is placed on kids these days.

We didn't play "Wii" games yesterday because my shorty was not up to it. We may play today. 

We will be making some changes to our vacay in the Midwest and making sure that we have a plan (B) set up. A contingence plan is always must for me.

Tomorrow is "Rumi Kube Fest" at my girlfriend Shoo Shoo's home. We will surprise her with dinner, because I want her relaxed when I give her a much-needed spanking that she deserves. Of course, the secret weapon will be deployed to make things interesting, smile!

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

MINION WAS THERE

DEB LOOKING GOOD IN THAT HAT


After that we made our way to "Snooze" for breakfast and the food was good. Deb treated us to breakfast. Thanks Deb.

After that I dropped in at Discount Tire because one of the tire sensors alerted that the front drivers side tire was low. So, I had them all checked and now the "Bellezza Nera" is good to go.

After that I stopped at the Ufficio Postale to drop of some mail.

My playmate left to walk the mall, and I am sure that she will get her froyo fix before she goes grocery shopping.

When she returns will play some "Wii" games.

This evening after Happy Hour we will make our way to the "Live Theater Workshop" to see the play "Trevor".

I need to give my girlfriend Edwina a call to see how she is doing.

Here is what "Chefs Day" looked like. It was delicious.



I received a very nice call from Pima Council on Aging. The Agency that I used to work for. The administrator Rebecca called to see if I could attend a three day retreat up in the Foothills. The wanted me to be there to talk to new caregivers about caregiving and its trials and tribulation. I was humbled and very honored to be asked to do this. I had to decline because it falls on the weekend that we will be up in Phoenix visiting JT and Nate for dinner and to see their new home that they just purchased. Wow, what an amazing honor and I would have loved to be there.

Well, I had better get ready to beat my shorty at "Wii". I will chat at you later.
