 5 SEPT GET READY SHORTAGES AGAIN!


Mood: Relaxed! Cautious! Surprised!

Music listening to: Nessuno!

Buon Domenica!  How are you doing? We started the day off at 5:20am caring for Chris. Actually Elise is caring for Chris this morning. I am  putting the Keurig on, smile! Any plans for today?

The coffee for me this morning is a Rainforest Blend and I brewed up a cup of Blueberry Vanilla Blend for Elise. It is another sticky morning here in Tucson. We will enjoy a second cup at the "Egg Connection" along with a good breakfast.

Alexa is awake and she said that I have many tasks to complete today. To include clearing out the easement behind Chris's house. It will call for some long pants to keep the mosquitoes at bay along with some repellant. I will also complete my usual Domenica tasks as well.

My playmate and I will be dropping off and picking up rocks from the Cortez location this morning. We will also be starting new rocks today if time permits.

Hey, today is Chefs Day. My Sous Chef and I will be preparing "Baby Back Ribs" with Baked Beans. My Sous Chef prepared the Baby Backs for cooking last night. She will also decide on what this evenings libation will be. Last night we enjoyed "Sloppy Joes" on buns. One of my favorites eats since childhood and it is still good. We enjoyed a few Jacks along with the meal.

In the middle of this month we will be making our way for a vacay in San Diego, California for about 5 days. We are looking forward to it and we love San Diego. We will be using our perks for a stay at the Viejas Resort and Casino for the first night. Hopefully we will be able to make the slots "Cha Ching".

We hope that your Domenica goes well today. Have a good one and be careful when you are out and about. Mask Up! I will chat at you later.

Ciao....Jessie and Elise

buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!

How are you doing so far on this Sabato? I am hanging in there. My fidanzata said that my Saturday is a long one and will not end until Wednesday. She is correct about that.

Chris and I are listening to some Smooth Jazz. I will be getting him dressed and up into his chair shortly.

Here are our latest rock creations. Enjoy!

Our stay-cation in Bisbee was very much needed and it was restful and surprisingly no drama this trip, but it was very a very short visit. We stayed at the Schoolhouse Inn B&B. Our hosts were spectacular and we were treat very well along with the other guests. The Inn is totally booked for the weekend and that is good news.

We stayed in the Geography Room and we loved it. Here are a few pictures inside of our room.

We enjoyed a good lunch in Bisbee with mio cognata, Estefania and her two little ones Raven and Athena. It was good to see them. We thought that Tucson had a bad fly problem but Bisbee has one as well. Here are a few pictures from lunch.

Later we got together at the "Table" for dinner and the place was packed. Many eateries close up very or they have been attacked by Covid. The food at the "Table" was very good. Here are a few pictures from there.

2 SEPT RAVEN AND THE LOVELY ESTEFANIA!


2 SEPT RAVEN IN CHARGE!





After dinner we returned to the Inn to get more rest. We read books for a bit and i played a quick video game before we decided to call it game over. We got up the next morning and we went down for breakfast. The breakfast was very good and we met of the other people who were staying at the "Inn" Our host surprised us with a question about did we have anything strange happen to us or did we hear of see anything during our stay. We all said that we didn't . So she told us that the "Inn" is haunted by a Lady in White" and again she makes her presence known. She told us of her and her Mom 's sightings of her and also by other other guests of the "Inn". It was great! This our third time at the "Inn" and we love it there. On our next visit to Bisbee we are going to say there and hopefully we can get the "Geography Room" again. It was a good trip and mio moglie con io rested well. Here is a picture we took on our way home on a wall in Bisbee. Papa John will love this!



3 SEPT BETTY BOOP OF BISBEE!

Tomorrow is Chefs Day. My Sous Chef and I will be preparing Country Style Spare Ribs with Baked Beans. Hungry right? Sure you are! This evening we are having Sloppy Joes on a bun with fries. Of course some type of libation will be served. Ya Mon'.

Well I had better get back to Chris. I will chat at you later if time allows.

Buon Sabato!  How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Elise popped up before I did like bacon in a hot skillet. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Blueberry Vanilla Blend and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. It is a nice but sticky morning here in the valley of Tucson. We got a little rain overnight and hopefully we will get more today.

I am caring for Chris this morning and up until Sister Jayne returns on Wednesday morning. Alexa is awake an she reminded me that I have a class to complete online. I asked here to play some (Boney) for me for the next few days to help me get through without no problems hopefully.

We enjoyed our very short stay in Bisbee. I will post about it as soon as I review the pictures. It was a much needed respite for us for sure.

Well I had better get this Sabato moving along. Have a good weekend and stay safe, sound and happy. Keep that mask at the ready. I will chat at you later.

Ciao....Jessie and Elise

Buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!

How are you doing? Is your Hump Day going well? I am doing OK. My doctor visit when very well but he mentioned that I have been stressed out for a while. At least he got that from my bloodwork over two weeks ago. I confirmed that I was going through a stressful patch. He also said that my (Uric Acid) level was slightly elevated and that I should keep an eye on that.

I ran an errand over on the Eastside after my appointment. I got back home and I was a bit hungry which is a good thing. 

Hey I completed another one of my continuing educational medical classes a bit ago. I have one more to go. Looks like we may get some more rain today. Lots of clouds out there.

My playmate and I are going to start new rocks today. Here are a few pictures that I have been having fun with. Enjoy!

Buona Sera!

Buona Sera!



I CAN RELATE!

How are you? Are you being rained on like we are? It is a light but steady rain and that is good. 

I am caring for Chris tonight and Elise is in the main house watching the news and she is on her Mac. She prepared French Toast for dinner with sausages, eggs and plenty of coffee.  My appetite is not good tonight. We watched "Offspring"  with Chris on Netflix.

It has been a long day and I am tired. Chris is relaxed and enjoying his TV and downing his supplement. I am hoping to sleep well tonight if I can.

I have a early morning doctors appointment at 8:00am. Here is my latest rock creation. Enjoy!

Buon Martedi!  Taco Tuesday! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Elise popped up along with me this morning to start her day. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Butter Toffee Blend a as second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. It is a sticky morning here in Tucson. We got about 10 drops of rain yesterday. Hopefully that will improve today.

Alexa is awake and she said that I don't have any tasks to complete today. I asked her to play some (Boney) for me today.

Chris the IRobot will be coming out of his cradle this morning to clean the main house carpet.  My shorty and I will be getting back to our rocks today if we can. 

We are heading for Bisbee on Thursday for a overnight to see our niece Athena. We will be staying at the Schoolhouse Bed and Breakfast. I am not that overjoyed about the trip but I can use the rest at the Schoolhouse.

Have a good Taco Tuesday and I will chat at you later.

Buon Pomerrigo!

Buon Pomerrigo!

How are you doing? I am way better than I am right now. I just returned from my doctors appointment and I am fine.

The problem is that the caregiver was a no-show. Can you believe that? Elise called the agency and they said that the caregiver is afraid of Buttercup. Bogus! She also said that we asked her to suction Chris? Bogus! Chris doesn't have a need for that and if he did I would take care of it. She should have told us when we met her that she had problems with Chris's care. I believe what turned her away is that she is not vaccinated and refuses due to religious reasons.  Also we asked her to stay masked during her shift at all times. Also we asked her to get a Covid test weekly since she will not get vaccinated.

You have no idea at how pissed off I am today. Unbelievable! Todays work ethic has just disappeared totally. With Chris you have to work and not sit all of the time. I told Elise that I am considering to quit totally and just retire, but that is not me because I never quit. That would mean that Chris would go into a facility and I promised that would not take place. There I had to vent and I really don't feel any better. This agency wants me to let them hire me to care for Chris. I don't like the way this agency works and we are being told that this agency has a good reputation. I don't agree at all with that.

That is where things stand right now. Not good at all from my standpoint.

Ciao.....Jessie

The coffee is a good Rainforest Blend and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. It is a very sticky morning here in Tucson. Will it rain some more?

Sister Jayne will be here this morning to assist with the training of the new caregiver. Alexa is awake and she said that I don't any tasks to complete today. I do have a routine doctors appointment this morning.

My playmate and I will be working on rocks today. So I had better get ready for my appointment. Have a good Lunedi and I will chat at you later. Stay safe!

Hello!

 Hello!

What's up? We just got back from having a good breakfast at the "Egg Connection" and it was packed. 

Elise is now caring for Chris and I am about to start my normal Domenica tasks. Hey the forecast says that we have more rain on the way for the next couple of days.

Today is going to be a relaxed day hopefully so we can be ready for what next week brings for us. We hope that your day is going your way so far? I am going to play around with pictures today. I love doing that for my  girlfriends.

Please say a prayer or two for my dear friend Shirlene who lives in New Orleans. She is in the path of Ida. Thanks!

Ciao......Jessie

Buon Domenica! How are you doing? I started the day off at 5:30am getting Chris settled for Elise. Elise is not in her cave this morning so she will be swimming her way over to Chris's house soon to start her day. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Donut Shop Regular Blend and a second cup will be downed at the "Egg Connection" along with a good breakfast. It is a nice morning here in the valley of Tucson. Hey how about that drain last night? Wow! I was out in it because I left the "Green Ladies" windows cracked open. So I had to dash out to save her. Problem was that all of the umbrellas were in the cars. So I donned a bag and put it over my head as I ran out. Elise and Chris were at the front cracking up because they thought it was hilarious. I got soaked big time! The rained flooded many streets to include right out in front of our house. If there were fish in that lake I could have gone fishing. Are backyard turned into a lake as well. Here are a few pics of the backyard Enjoy!

Sister Jayne will be here this evening to care for Chris. Alexa is awake and she said that I have my usual Domenica tasks to complete today. I asked her to play some "Funk Jazz for me today. I am feeling a bit somber and nostalgic today, due to today is my Mom's birthday.  My brother Herman I miss her dearly, but we know that she is watching over us and guiding our every step. Love and miss you Mom!

My playmate and I will be starting new rocks soon. Here is our latest creations. Enjoy!

Hey Chefs Day was delicious. We enjoyed "Chinese Pepper Steak" over Jasmine Rice. My Sous Chef choose "Jack Daniels" as the libation to go with the meal. Great choice indeed. We loaded up Sister Jayne with a plate as well and she was as stuffed as we were. I had planned on having "Cherry Amaretto" ice cream for dessert but we just could not do it. Here are a few pics of that meal. It should make you very hungry too!

28 AUG CHEF AT WORK

Well tomorrow the new caregiver will be here to start her first day of training with Chris. We hope that she works out. Sister Jayne will be here to assist with the training. I also have a doctors appointment in the morning.

Well I had better get this Domenica moving forward. Stay safe, sound, and happy. I will chat at you later. Keep that mask near by.
