THURSDAY and I don't gotta work

 So KR went surfing and came back pretty early.  He had a gash above his left eye, and bleeding, PLUS he broke a fin on his back, tore his wet suit and has a gash on his back too.  BUT He HAD to play pickleball with Joann at 9 and then with Alan and Isaiah at 12.

Lovely had cleaned the garage so so nicely and we found some dishes that Kurt needs to figure out if he wants.  She has the whole front patio full of stuff for Savers or Sally.  

I made bacon early and made Kurt a sandwich.  Alan and Isaiah came after playing about 2 30 and ate some.  I sat out at the pool for about an hour and KR came for a quick swim and we came home.  I went to Sumi's to drop off her pan and my knees are hurting less today.

Isaiah and Alan watch the Chargers and Lovely found my watch charger.  BUT the Beat head;phones are still missing.

Lovely adn Alan took Isaiah to the airport

Wednesday

 Lovely and Alan and Isaiah came back.

Early too

I went up to pick up my name tag HAHHA  She made a good one with  my senior picture and FRANKLIN High.  wait until KR sees it

Sleep score was 75 We went to Norm's and Alan ate a WHOLE rack of ribs, except one, which I had.  We went to church studyoing Job.  It was so nice to have the Alagata's at church with us.

Kurt had work all day.  Corrina came over and spent the night

Tuesday 7/29/2025

 I was able to change my appt with Dr Andrawis for this Friday.

I was on the phone with CheapoAir.  I should have book TWO one way tickets to Turkey, but no.So now I am going to try to book Athens to Iraq.  I also spoke with Grace at Orbridge on the trip to Italy and Switzerland.  Interesting, with Williams.  Into Italy and out of Zurich.

I then went to JJ and bough Dr Kelliny office some pastries.  |Met Monica and her mom there and Dr K opened the tooth, lots of pus and will finish in two weeks.

KR met Kirk Starbird and got the stuff innto the garage and condo for his reunion.  He also went swimming, after drinkig a beer and came home when Sumi was here bringing us bread pudding and scones.  WOWOWOWO

Charity also came by for some glasses.

I took a nnap from 4 - 5 30.  Missed my yoga class, but it was canceled.  HAHA

Angel wennt to the vet and had some antiemetic meds and fluids and ate some dinner and did ont throw up.  Emily said might be dog flu.  REALLY?  She threw up four times and I did so much laundry lasterday.  Twice on our bed, once on bed here, once on Kurt;s bed and once on the carpet here.  AND once in front of her crate.

Monday and what revelation ABOUT MY HIP

 I had such weird dreams last night and the sleep score is still no good.  Something about being on a train and going too far and taking the bus back that was 45 cents but  i only  had dollar bills.  I think Bill Wickwire might be in the  dream, maybe  kind of like a reuion or some kind of get together.

I went to see Dr Tiffany Rogers and she said I do NOT have a back problem.  She thinnnks the cup is ot placed right and I should see Dr Andrawis for a possible revision.  REALLY?????  I have been thinkign that theere is somethign wrong with the cup placement but Shrader just said nope nope it is only soft tissue.  

After that I went to the office and dropped off the meds for Dr Desai's mother.  I stopped  at El Super and spent 100 bucks on meat and stuff.  The rib eye steaks are now 15 dollars a pound.  WOWO

Came home and KR was doing yard work.  I went for a ride and he went to repair the pickleball net and went for a swim.  Kurt had work all day.  He didn't get home until about midnnight.

I spoke to Lovely and Maggie and Melissa about the hip issue.  Guess I am going to have more tests and see what is what

I went to Green Hills to look at the plot where the urn was placed.  It looked very nice.  I took some of our sunflowers and mom's bougainvillea flowers.  While I was there, Karina and Maribel both called me.  Her tooth had fallen out again.  KR says the wire is NOT for maintaining a tooth and I need to get the mesh or the Ribbond.  I drove directly to the office and put her tooth back.

Friday July 4 through Monday July 7 Seattle, Sequim, back to Seattle

 Afrter a hot breakfast at the Best  Western, we started driving to Sequim.  Which is suppose to be about 2 hours plus.  We had several poitns we wanted to see but I missed the turn offs ad got to Port Townsend about 11 30 What a pretty town by the water.  We saw the  ferry loading and going away.  We stopped for a whale skeleton.  We went to Fort Worden State Park.  Oh, KR bought two shirts at Port TOwnsed and we looked for an oyster place.  NO WHERE. 

We saw a burger place called Fat Smitty's in Fairmont and stopped for a burger.  The ceilings were full of tacked up dollar bills.  We got to sequim and saw Bert and Tina and the kids, Gracie and Joseph.  We went to a picnic kind of a 4th celebrationn.  There must been a 100 people there.  All church goers.  Food was great.  We did not stay for the fireworks as Seattle did not get dark until 10.  We went back to the 'trailer' that we were stayingn at and promptly fell asleep.  I didn't even get up to pee.

The enxt day Saturday we went to Lake Cresent to paddle board and play.  It was so beautiful.  Maybe 45 min out.  Couple of hours later we went back to town at Mexican annd had a yummy  meal.  After sayingnn goodbye we went back to Seattle and stayed at The Dylan, a Wyndham property.  Well, it was juyst acquired and  used to be called the Kings Inn.  More like a drug den.  I didn't know when I booked.  But it was innn the middle between Pike Market and The Needle.  We slept on a full bed and they had grab ad go breakfast consisting of a pastry, one bottle water and a granola bar.

Sunday we walked to Pike market first, but the  linne for Original Starbucks was too long.  We saw paroski next door and bought some and they were fabulous.  Then we went back to the hotel to  get read for the Needle.  I had bought the needle ticket and the glass garden ticket the day before.  It was not crowded at 8 30.  We took the fast elevator up and it  was magnificent  view.  We even walked the glass floors, with me whinging all the way.  Then we went to Chihuly Glass Garden.  The stuff was amazing they make with molten glass.

Then it was lunch at Pikes Market.  We had oysters and then more pyrosky and some drinks and seafood chowder.  We staggered home tired.

Monday morning we checked out and found from the front desk Kerry Park up the hill really close by had a fabulous view.  HE WAS RIGHT !!! We drove up there and can see the Needle and Mt Ranier and all that.

The flight home was a mess.  We took a Uber and got  home by 4 30.  It was so nice to be home.  Angel was glad to see us.

Thursday off to Seattle

 What a morning.  Just   feels like there is so much to do.  KR went surfing after we walked to Hickory Park.  I just worked like a mad man cleaning and getting stuff sorted.  Took all of Lovely's stuff to the condo and picked plus.  KR lugged the large box of games she is suppose  to take back.

We had left over, I finished the soup and he ate the turkey sandwiches.  I also had to help him upload the innformation needed for his CCW.  Which was not easy, but done.

He watered and packed.  We brought two suitcases carryon style, back from the garage.  Uber picked us up at 2 40.  Will continue after we return.

Well we left at 5 15  and arrived at Seattle at 8.  Took  the  renntal car shuttle to National.  I had the thought that if I had thee National app, I might get in the front of the line.  We did.  the guy says : take a car, any car.  We got a hybrid Toyota Camry.  VERY nice car.  Ate some chicken sadwich at Super Chix in Tukwila Washinngton.  then went to the Best Western I  booked with  poinnts and passed out.

Wednesday Office meeting

 What  a day.  First is walk to the park then pick up Gains soap, FREE then office meeting.  I adjusted my Snoreguard and pulled my crown (#18) off, and had to cement it back myself as Monica had to meet with the social media guy for the office, and he was late.

Then it was PT and then blood work, at LabCorp.  My appt was 1:25 and they didn't take me in until 1:55.  What is the point about making an appt?  NO IDEA.

Came home and tried to put the house in order so we can leave tomorrow.  Went to  pick plums at the condo and cleaned the  garage a little.

I also cyccled about 6 miles.  Didn't sleep too good.  I thought I did

Tuesday FM and Bible Study

 Well, I didn't sleep any better but at least I slept next to KR.

He went to Bible Study and I cleaned until my Senior Cardio class.  The classroom mix up means the class didn't start until 9.  Oh well.  Andrea and Maribel came to clean.  KR got a lot of zuks and cantaloupe.  We served watermelon and cantaloupe and plums for Bible Study.

I also went to Ralphs about 7 am to buy  milk and lots of maple flavored bacon.  KR went to Mom's to make the bed as the sheets were dried before going body surfing at the beach.

Angel went crazy after a squirrel and I shot at it and missed.  KR finished it and she got blood all over her face.  I threw it on top of the container.  Let's see if it is still there tomorrow.

Bible Study was good.  KR founnd out Zen Del Rio had committed suicide by jumping off the PV cliffs.  He went up after BS to see if he can see Roman up there, who is suppose to be sleeping there in a tent.

Geez, that is just terrible that your father commits suicide.
