  Buon Domenica! How are you doing? I started the day  off at 5:15am getting  Chris settled for Elise. Elise is not in her cave this morning so she will be over to Chris's house soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is a good  Kona Blend and a second cup will be enjoyed along with a good take away from the "Egg Connection".

   It is another nice morning here on the "Old Pueblo" but is is going to be smoking hot again. Sister Jayne will be here this evening to care for Chris.



  Alexa, is awake and she said that I have a couple of things to get done today to include a trip over on the eastside. She reminded me that my new (Boney) CD will be delivered today. WooHoo!

  I have my normal tasks to take care of today like restocking Chris's supplies for next week. I also have a little yardwork to do behind Chris's house and on the southside of Chris's house in my (me) time area.

We are still working on our #Hide Tucson Rocks. I will be dropping off and picking up this morning and I will be dropping off in the hood as well. Here is what I will drop of at the Cortez location. Enjoy!



ELISE'S LATEST 4 JULY

We enjoyed our 4th of July dinner in place. The BBQ King did a very good job on the smoker and it all turned out great. We were stuffed! Here are a few pics!

Howdy!

Howdy!

What is going on around your way? We are taking things slow and easy today. My playmate just got back from grocery shopping. And now she is watching TV with Chris in the main house.

I am about to load up the smoker with some Mesquite coal and chips. I just wrapped up the corn on the cob and I buttered it down but good. My shorty made a sour cream mixture and the potatoes are in the oven cooking away. I marinated the Sirloins over night and they are looking good. I will be donning my BBQ King apron and glove that my (angel) friend in New Orleans made for me a few years back. Now you know that a photo opt is coming for sure right?

It is getting a little windy here in central Tucson. I just opened a bottle of Vino Rosso from Toscana. It is a nice Stephano di Basci. It has a 93% rating, of yeah!  I am letting it breathe. Can you hear it?

The fur-babies always gather round when the smoker starts to permeate the hood. My fidanzata is waiting to get a whiff I bet. Smile!

Hey, here is a pic of the new puzzle that we are going to start to put together. This Covid-19 really does make you do things that you may not normally do, eh? Our friend Sheila said that working on a puzzle would drive her crazy. Well my playmate and I are not too far from that. We do miss all of the things that we used to do. Big Time!


NEW COVID-19 PUZZLE

We hope that you are enjoying the holiday the best that you can. I will have a chin-wag at you later. I am enjoying a refreshing Jack and Coke right now. I may need spell-check, NOT!

Ciao.....Jessie and Elise

Barbara B, stay safe!

  Buon Sabato! Felice 4th di Luglio! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Elise is not in her cave this morning so she will up and about soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is a good Brazilian Blend and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. It is going to be a hot one today here in the valley of Tucson.

  Sister Jayne will be here this evening to care for Chris. I  am caring for Chris up until this evening. Alexa, is awake and she said that I have nothing to do today but fire up the smoker and get those Sirloins and corn on the cob ready to smell up the hood and my fidanzatas hood too! I asked Alexa to play some Allstar Smooth Jazz for me today.

I dropped a few rocks on the hood this morning and I will not be making a trip to the Cortez location until tomorrow. Here is our latest creations. Enjoy!

How are you doing today? I hope that you are well, happy, safe and wearing a mask? Oh yeah washing those hands and keeping a good social distance when you are out.

It has been a different kind of day for me but I got a lot done. I visited the Cortez location and dropped off and I picked up. I also loaded up the hood as well.

We have been working on our latest #Hide Tucson Rocks. We are doing the July Challenge and today is a UFO. Here is what we came up with today. Enjoy!  Tomorrow's challenge is  fried egg!

Hey, this Covid-19 is almost out of control here in the Sunshine State. This thing needs to turn around very soon. 

Well, I seasoned up the steaks for tomorrow and they are setting a a nice marinade. A change to our meat selection though. We thought that we had T-Bones but instead we will have Sirloin. Ya,Ya.

I am sure when I light up the smoker tomorrow that my fidanzata will be taking in all of the good smells that will be heading her way. WooHoo!

We hope that the rest of your day will be excellent. I live by my mantra "Still I Rise" and I will continue to do so.

I will have a chat at you later....Jessie

 We are still rocking it with our #Hide Tucson Rocks. We have agreed to take on the July Rock Challenge. It dictates a different rock creation for everyday during the month of July. We can do it without a doubt. I will be making a trip over to the Cortez location to drip off and pick up this morning. Here is our latest. I will also be dropping off in the hood as well. Enjoy!

What is going on? How are you doing? We are good here but we are taking things very seriously. Covid-19 is out of control here in Arizona.

Please to wear a mask, clean you hands often, social distance as much as you can. Stay home when possible. I have been informed that another virus is making it's way through China.  It a resurgence of the H1N1  (Swine Flu) do you remember that one? We do because I had t-shirts made up for it a few years back. Be careful.

My playmate is working on a set of (keeper) rocks to be given as gifts. I am almost finished with my latest rock. It is a good one!

My shorty will be meeting up with one of her groups on (Zoom) very soon. I like Zoom. Chris is up in his chair watching Gunsmoke.

Stay safe!

It has been a different kind of day for me but I got thorough it. It started off with a major headache that is still with me but not as bad.

I ran an errand today and my playmate and I worked on #Hide Tucson Rocks. I have to say that I am very proud of my shorty and her artistic skills. It is very hard not to keep every rock she creates. Here is what was done today. Enjoy!

Here is a picture card that was gifted to me today by my (girlfriend) Flo. It was good to see her at a distance. No fun but good to see her smile! Great pic.




My shorty prepared breakfast for dinner this evening. We had homemade blueberry pancakes, sausages, eggs and plenty of coffee. We watched "Hawaii 5 O" with Chris.

The caregiver had a issue this afternoon that I had to take care of. I am caring for Chris this evening and he is enjoying his supplemental drip while watching the Big Bang.

Elise is in her office on her Mac and she is listening to the news at the same time. Well, I had better get back to Chris. Have a good night and sleep well so you will be ready for Hump Day.

Buona Notte.....

  Buon Martedi!  Taco Tuesday!  How are you doing? I started the day off at 4:454am caring for Chris. Elise is not in her cave this morning so she will be up and about soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is a good Kona Blend and a second cup will be downed later this morning. Another nice day here in Tucson but no rain in sight.

  Rosemary will be here this morning to care for Chris. Alexa is awake and she said that I have a lot of things going on today. The first task today is that the IRobot will be coming out of its home this morning to vacuum the main house. So I have  to get all of the electrical cords up off of the floor.  I also have to make a trip over to the eastside today as well.

  I will complete my #Hide Tucson Rock today and my shorty and I both will start new ones. I will not be making a trip over to the Cortez location today.

 Hey things are getting worse here in Arizona with Covid-19. As of last night the gym's, movies, bars are closed again. School will not start as planned as well. Cabin Fever is alive and well in the Sunshine State.  What can you do?

You can do what I did last night. I popped open my pony keg of Warsteiner birra and I filled up (das boot). It was very good, so good that I am going to repeat that action again today. Ya Mon'.

Have a good Taco Tuesday and stay safe. 

Ciao....Jessie and Elise

Was your day a good one? It has been a fair day for a Monday.

Chris enjoyed his massage this afternoon from Rosemarie. Chris has developed an issue at his G-tube site that I will have to keep an close eye on. My shorty and I are treating the area with anti-bi's. I also replaced his G-tube to be on the safe side.

I prepared grilled ham and cheese sandwiches for dinner. We also has baby carrots and pickle spears. It was very good. We watched "Game of Thrones" on Netflix with Chris.

I am caring for Chris this evening and my shorty is watching the news on TV. Chris is watching the Big Bang and enjoying his dinner.

I started a new rock today and it is just about finished. I have to say that it came out way better than I thought it would. Two Thumbs up! So good that I am going to pop open my pony keg of Warsteiner. I will enjoy a good ice cold glass full. Prost!

Tomorrow is going to be a very busy day for me. I have to get things set up for my upcoming continuing medical education classes that start on 1 July. 

We hope that you have a good night. Sleep well!

Buona Notte....Jessie and Elise
