Buon Martedi!  Taco Tuesday!  How are you? It is a cold, windy morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?




The coffee is a good Del Sol Blend, and a second cup will be downed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she reminded me that "Chris" the iRobot is coming out this morning to clean the main house carpet.  I asked her to play some "Funk Jazz" for me today.

I will be finishing up my latest rock creation today. After I am done with the rock I will seal lit. My playmate is going to start a new one soon.

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

Today's challenge word is (stacanovista). I used to be a (stacanovista). How about you fidanzata?

Buon Pomeriggio!

YA MON' JAMAICA!

Have you thawed out yet desert dwellers? It feels good in the sun, but as soon as you get out of it is icicle time again. Brrr!

I just got back from the post office and the airbase. While I was out on the airbase, I filled the "Donna Verde" with gas.

I am now going to start working on a new rock. I am sure that my playmate will start on soon.

Hope you day is going your way. Stay safe, warm and healthy.

The coffee is a good Founders Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she reminded me that I have to make a trip to the post office and the airbase.  I asked her to play some "Down Home Blues" for me today.

Well, one of my teams lost and one of my teams won yesterday in football. Looking forward to the playoffs to see who is going to the Superbowl. Let's get it done "Chiefs".

I will be working on a new rock today. Here is my shorty's latest rock. It is a (keeper).

What is up around your way? Desert Dwellers have you warmed up yet? Smile!

We just got back from having a good breakfast at the "Egg Connection". They were very busy this morning, and that is a good thing.

I have to make a correction on this morning's blog posting. We are not going to the "Roadhouse Cinema", because we are going to be glued to the TV watching NFL Football. 👍.

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

Buon Domenica!  How are you doing?  It is a cold, clear morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Founders Blend, and a second cup will be downed at the "Egg Connection", along with a good breakfast. 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.

I started my day very early this morning. I am up at 4:00am. I am not feeling well so I got up, so I didn't disturb Elise's sleep.

I am feeling way out of sorts, and I am stressed big time. I am playing a game of skip, skip to the (loo) for one thing. My home team the Detroit Lions lost last night as well.


MY DETROIT LIONS LOST 

We had an expensive plumbing issue yesterday, the heater in the guest house was only blowing out cold air at around 9:30pm last night. What is going on around here, eh?

A good thing is our "Chiefs" won yesterday. Go Chiefs. We will be glued to the TV today for more NFL games today.

We will be hitting up the "Roadhouse Cinema" to see the movie. For dinner we will be dining on pizza.

Well, I had better get busy. Have a good Domenica. Hopefully I will feel better as the day goes along. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Today's challenge idiom is (Farsi in quattro). I feel I do this and at times I don't think I do. How about you fidanzata?

Our daughter Tangye is recovering nicely from her recent surgery. We enjoyed a good breakfast with Tangye and Dave at "Gus Balons". The food was as good as ever.


DAVE AND TANGYE AT GUS BALONS



Our staycation at "Casino Del Sol" was relaxing and restful. We were joined by Rosemarie in the evening so we could teach her how to play the "Keno Slots". It was good to see her. She was Chris's massage therapist. Here are a few pictures from our short stay. A few "Cha Chings" are always a plus.





 





On our way back home, we stopped and picked up a bucket of rocks for painting. We also stopped at Desert Diamond Casino to pick up our wins and loss statement for taxes. Of course, played a few slots while we were there.

When we got home, we got all set up for my "World Famous Jalapeno Dip". We set up the gaming laptop and we played a Visit Italy Game for about 6 hours. Lots of fun and of course plenty of Jack was on hand, smile!




Today is going to be loaded with NFL Football. Our "Chiefs" are playing Texas. Go Chiefs!

Well, I had better get this day moving forward. Have a good Sabato. Stay safe and I will chat at you later. 

Today's challenge word is (paffuto). I am feeling a bit (paffuto) from all of the tuna dip. So, do you feel that way at times after a good meal fidanzata?

MY DEAR FRIEND ROSIE IN MELBOURNE

Are you still cold? We desert dwellers are. When are we going to heat up?

Our daughter and son-in-law are here staying with us. Tangye got through her surgery, and she is taking it slow and easy here.

My playmate just left for one of her book club meetings. When she returns, we will be meeting up with Bev and David for dinner.

We hope that your Humper is going well. Tomorrow we will be on a staycation at "Casino Del Sol" for an overnight. We will meet up with Rosemarie to play some "Keno" Slots. Hopefully we can make them "Cha Ching".

Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Buon Mercoledi!  Hump Day!  How are you? It is a cold, clear morning here in Tucson.  Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Holiday Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she reminded us that our daughter Tangye is having back surgery early this morning at TMC Ortho, Wyatt Surgery Center. If you could please say a prayer or two for her. Mia Moglie will be there during the surgery. Thank you.

I completed my latest rock yesterday. I will seal it today and then I will place it out in the hood. Here it is. Enjoy!



MY LATEST ROCK

We will be joining Bev and David for dinner this evening at "Ha Long Bay". We have never been there, and we are looking forward to it.

Our latest puzzle was glued yesterday and when it is ready we will frame.

My playmate brought back my dinner from "Leo's" last night. She met up with one of her book club meetings. I downed two ground beef tacos, rice and beans. It was delicious. I got it down with a little some "Apple Moonshine" that my girlfriend (Edwina) has made for us. I have to tell you it warmed me up quickly and I slept very well, smile!

Well, I had better get busy and get this day moving along post haste. Have a good Humper. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Here is a picture of my playmates "Tai Chi Punching Bag". It will feel good not being the punching bag anymore, smile!



TAI CHI PUNCHING BAG

Today's challenge word is (pernacchia). I gave out this sound as soon as my feet hit the floor this morning. Have you ever given a (pernacchia) to start your day fidanzata?

Buon Martedi!  Taco Tuesday!  How are you doing?  It is a cold, clear morning here in the "Old Pueblo".  Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Founders Blend, and a second cup will be downed later this morning. Alexa is awake and she reminded me that Chris the iRobot would be coming out to clean the main house carpet. I asked her to play some "Funk Jazz" for me today.

Mia Moglie will be making her way to play her weekly (bridge) game in a bit.

We are without a puzzle to start since we completed our last one yesterday. We will glue it together and then we will put it in a frame. What are we going to do without a new puzzle? Smile!

I started my latest rock yesterday, and I will complete it soon. My playmate has a new one in mind.

I will also complete setting up my shorty's Punching Bag today as well. She is looking forward to giving it a beating.

Well, we booked a 15-day cruise to Panama for February 2026. We have never been away for that long, never.

We will be joining Bev and David at a Vietnamese restaurant tomorrow evening. Should be interesting.

We are really looking forward to this weekend, because our "Chiefs" will be playing football. 

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

Today's challenge word is (prezzo). Have you noticed that the (prezzo) of many items have soared  lately fidanzata?

Have you warmed up yet desert dwellers? If not, I get it because I am still shivering.

I got my errand taken care over on the eastside, and now I am going to work on my latest rock.

Later I will work on my playmates Punching Bag assembly. 

For some reason I am starting to get hungry, and I am thinking about doughnuts of all things.

We hope that your Lunedi is going your way. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.
