Ciao!

Ciao!




How are you doing so far on this Domenica? We just got back from having breakfast at the "Egg Connection", and it was all good.

We received a call from (Flo's) daughter letting us know that (Flo's) husband John passed away. We were going to visit (Flo) after breakfast but now we will wait and go visit on another day. So sad. John was a very good man, and we enjoyed him over the years. Seems like the sad days are becoming the norm, that is my feeling.

We will rest up until it is time to meet my girlfriends at "Applebee's" at noon. Enjoy your Domenica. Stay safe, healthy and happy.

If you love someone, please let them know often, please!

Ciao...Jessie and Elise  

Buongiorno!

26 APRIL RALLY AT THE SOCIAL SECURITY OFFICE

Mood: Content!

Music listening to: Chaos a Book on CD!

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

The coffee is a good Italian 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 asked her to play some "Smooth Jazz" for me today.

Well, the puzzle that we have been working on is finished. My playmate will glue it together and put it into a frame.

I have prepped a rock for next project and my shorty is working on a new one as well.

We enjoyed a wonderful evening last night at "Zaynas". We met up with Paula, Marty, Shoo Shoo, Bert and Lori. It was so good to see the gang together again. We got all caught up with the latest and our meal was very good. Great evening, thank you.

We will be having an early lunch at "Applebee's" with my girlfriends Shoo Shoo and Edwina. After lunch we will be making our way over to the "Arts Express" to see the live musical "Kinky Boots". It is going to be very good. Mia Moglie and I have seen it before at a different venue but is worth seeing again. My girlfriends are going to enjoy it.

Well, I had better get ready for breakfast. Have a good Domenica. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

We are going visit (Flo) after breakfast. It will be a short visit.

Today's challenge idiom is (tanto di cappello). (Tanto di cappello) to my fidanzata and all of my girlfriends.

Buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!



What is going on around your way? We just got back from the protest rally at the Social Security Office here in Tucson. A pretty good crowd of motivated citizens were there. We stood next to several of our Garden District Neighbors. It was great!

Mia Moglie was out in the front yard watering plants and trees. She is now on the heavy bag working out. soon she will be making her way to do some grocery shopping.

I am still reviewing the pics from our trip to the mountains, and I hope to have them completed today.

Well, our dinner last night at the "Doughbird" was excellent and we are going to make a return visit back soon.

We were joined my girlfriends Shoo Shoo and Edwina. The food was very good and so was the vino (rosso). Here are a few pictures from the "Doughbird".

After dinner Mia Moglie and my girlfriend Shoo Shoo made our way over to the "Invisible Theatre" to see the live play titled "Garbologist". This has been the best presentation this season at the "Invisible Theatre". The theatre was packed. The acting was outstanding and yes, it is about NYC garbage collectors and the ups and downs about the job. We recommend this on for sure.

This evening, we are meeting up with Paula, Marty, Bert and Lori at "Zayna's" for dinner. We are looking forward to it, and yes, the Mediterranean fare is excellent.

Well, I had better get busy and get a few things done before tonight's event. I took a photo at the rally, but I am having some download issues right now. Stay safe and I will have a chinwag at you later.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Please keep those prayers going for everyone who is not feeling well or are going through some major health issues. Thank you so much.

Buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!




How is your Monday going so far? It has been a busy one here today.

I took Bellezza Nera to be washed inside and out. She has a smile on her name plate for now. Tomorrow she will be very angry at me when we hit the mountains and the dirt roads. I am worried about the weight of the ice chests, luggage and other items. She is a sedan and not a SUV or a Truck. I also hope that the rocks don't damage the paint and under carriage because she sits low to the ground.

Our suitcases are all packed and ready to be loaded in the morning. I am still don't want to stay at the cabin. I would prefer a hotel stay instead. I have a bad feeling about this trip, and I have had it for several days now.

My shorty is out walking and then she will get her yogurt fix. Later she has a doctor's appointment.

I am watching a silly horror movie about killer ants that have invaded a high-rise building. Could happen, eh?

Enjoy your Lunedi. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Buon Lunedi!  How are you doing? It is a cool, sunny morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Italian Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. Alexa is awake and she said that I have a few errands to take care of today.  I asked her to play some "Down Home Blues" for me today.

We both have our suitcases out and we will start to pack for our trip to the mountains that starts tomorrow. 

Well, Chef Day was delicious. We dined on Sirloin Steak, Filet Minon, Baked Potatoes, Sweet Peas, and for dessert we enjoyed White Russians. All good, and my Sous Chef was pleased.
















Well, I had better get this Lunedi moving forward. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Today's challenge word is (baci). I miss (baci) from my fidanzata and girlfriends.

Buon Pomeriggio!

Buon Pomeriggio!




How is your Easter Sunday going so far?  It is a very nice sunny day today here in the "Old Pueblo".

We changed breakfast venue this morning from "Hungry Fox" to our main stay "Egg Connection". We didn't thing that the "Egg Connection" would be open today, but they are.

I just got back from taking care of a task out on the airbase. Mia Moglie is out in the front yard watering plants and trees. I will be cleaning behind the guest house, and I will clean out the cactus garden.

My playmate has begun to pack for our trip to the mountains. I will get my suitcase out so I can start to pack as well. I still don't want to stay at the cabin, so it is not going to be a good time for me. I would have rather stayed in a hotel near Portal instead. My cognata is supposed to join us at the cabin.

Hey, today is Chefs Day. My Sous Chef and I will be grilling up some Sirloin and Filet Minon Steaks. My Sous will be preparing Baked Potatoes, and she will select the proper libation to go with the meal. For dessert my Sous is going to prepare White Russians with Soft Serve. WooHoo!


MIA SOUS CHEF!

Well, I had better get to it. Enjoy this Easter Sunday. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

We attended the Rally at Reid Park yesterday and another good crowd was in attendance.

Mia Moglie has a new rock prepped for painting. I will start a new rock when we return from the "Chiricahua's".

We will be gathering items that we need for this getaway today.

Well, I had better get to it. Have a Buona Pasqua! Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

How is your Sabato going so far?  Well, we are back from the political rally over at "Reid Park". A very nice crowd. I got all of my steps in at the rally.







Mia Moglie is in her office on her Mac. She will be going grocery shopping soon.

We enjoyed the movie "The Lady in the Chair" yesterday at Park Place Mall. It was very good, and it kept us on the end of our seats.

Here is my playmate's latest rock creation. Enjoy! Also here are the rocks out in the hood.

19 APRIL ELISE'S LATEST ROCK



19 APRIL IN THE HOOD

We will be starting to gather up what we need for our staycation in Portal and the "Chiricahua Mountains" that starts on Tuesday.

We received more info about my girlfriend (Flo). She is making progress, so please keep those concerns and prayers coming. Thank you.

Well, I need to find something to eat. I still have munchies. Ya Mon'.

Today's challenge word is (pulcino). This (pulcino) made of chocolate is looking good.

Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

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

The coffee is a good Italian Blend, and a second cup will be downed later this morning.  Alexa is awake and she said that I have couple of tasks to complete. I asked her to play some "Boney" for me today.

We both are just about to complete our latest rocks. We are still working on our puzzle, but it to is just about complete.

We will hit up Park Place Mall this afternoon to see the movie " Lady in the Chair". It is going to be a good (horror) movie. WooHoo! We saw "Sacramento" yesterday and it was really good.

I will be gassing up "Bellezza Nera" this morning out on the airbase.

We dined on "Taco Bell" yesterday and it was pretty good. As a matter of fact, we have a few leftover Tacos for tomorrow.

We will start to get out items that we need to take for our trip to the mountains. This trip is not going to be a pleasure stay for me.

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

Today's challenge word is (Venerdi Santo). Hope you have a (Venerdi Santo) fidanzata.

Buon Giovedi! Sete Giovedi!  How are you doing? It is a nice, sunny morning here in Tucson.  Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Italian Blend with a splash of vanilla. A second cup will be downed at "Gus Balons" along with a good breakfast. After breakfast, my shorty will go to an appointment. Alexa is awake and she said that I don't have any tasks to complete today.

I am still working on my latest rock and puzzle. My shorty is working on the puzzle, and she has prepped a rock for painting.

We will be hitting up Park Place Mall, after my playmate's appointment. We will see the movie "Sacramento", it should be good and funny.

Next week we will be spending a couple of nights in the "Chiricahua Mountains". We will be spreading Chris's ashes there. We will stay in the cabin. The reason for going is a good one, but I would prefer not to stay in the cabin. I have a bad feeling about that, and it will bring up many memories of friends who have passed as well.

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

If you could keep those prayers for my girlfriend (Flo) during her recovery. Also say a prayer or two for my (angel) who resides in New Orleans as well. Thank you.

Today's challenge word is (uovo). Can you still afford an (uovo) or two fidanzata?

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Hey, how is your Hump Day going so far? I have started my new rock, and it is coming along nicely.

I also got quite a few puzzle pieces in place as well. Mia Moglie left to get her yogurt fix and after that she is going to one of her book club meetings.

I am watching a nice mild horror movie on "Tubi", it is pretty good and funny at times.

We hope that you Humper is going well for you. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.
