Hellooooo! Well, I see I hit an all time high in visitors today. It’s nice to know that if I want more visitors, I just have to do a few stupid moves. HA! A 40% percent increase in visitors today – an all season high! Everything is good here today…..

The veterinarian called me today from down the street where I took Jake yesterday. She wanted to know how Jake was doing and I told her that he’s doing great and it was like he’s got a new set of batteries inside of him, he’s running around everywhere, and I’ve never seen that tail wag so much in one day! He’s doing excellent.

Now, Jake has always been on dry food most of his life, so today we had to sit down with him and introduce him to canned food. I bought some Prescription Diet food for him – dry food which he loves, and canned food which was foreign to him until today. So we sat down with him and put some canned food in a plate – looks like paste of a tan color – ugh. So, with patience, and a tiny, tiny cheese bait on the food, he tasted it and reluctantly ate most of it and I gave him his medicine (2 times a day) and one Prescription Diet Treat that he can have twice a day. Now, you don’t have to say it, I can read your mind from here……High Maintenance! You betcha’, but he’s so worth it!

As for me….I relaxed most of the day on the couch. Got an ice pack on the knee and bruises are showing in more and more places, but overall I’m fine. I’m sooooo fine that I found the energy to take a trip to the Cocopah Casino this evening. Hey, whatever makes me feel better, right? Anyways, I lost money there, but it was nice to get out of the RV for awhile.

But, basically that’s it. Lounge around all day and casino tonight. Tonight I’ll take some more pain medication for the pain in my knee and the “pain” in my wallet. I lost about $80 bucks tonight – ugh!

Not sure what we are doing tomorrow, but I don’t think we are going too far. Probably just going to spend a lot more time with Jake getting him more comfortable with his canned food.

Hope everyone is enjoying their week. I’ll be back tomorrow Nite Nite.

Hi! I put so much information in my title, huh? I say that because that’s basically all we did today – but I’ll walk you thru my day Hey, you’re checking on me, and I can’t ask for anything more than that
Okay, we went to Walmart (typical trip for our weekly stuff), and came back to the RV….real exciting, huh! Then we all (us and our neighbor) went to the Quechan Casino because today was Senior Day there, and if you are a senior you can get $10 free from the casino to play the slot machines with…..this was exciting to everyone but me….I don’t qualify for the free $10 dollars , but of course, I tagged along…..
I lost $80 dollars there (I figured I just funded 8 senior free plays). We left the Quechan Casino and went to the Paradise Casino (the Quechan Casino and the Paradise Casino is owned by the same indian tribe), and at the Paradise Casino, I lost $40 dollars more…..
So we returned to the camper and attended card bingo here at the recreational hall. That’s always fun! I like that. Tonight there was 172 people at card bingo! We didn’t win anything there……
After card bingo, we went to Walmart to pick up some water for our neighbor who is preparing her dry camping trip to Quartzsite. Yes, Quartzsite is coming up soon!! It about 1 hour ride north of us and it’s a piece of desert (yeah, I think it’s safe to state it that way, no disrespect to the town of Quartzsite intended), and for three weeks a year they have huge expos and trade shows. We will be attending the Quartzsite Sports and RV show, but we don’t dry camp, we try to avoid dry camping unless it’s en route to another destination and we have to stay in a Walmart or casino parking to get there – that’s the extent of our dry camping, so we will take the pick up truck and go up for the day to explore the RV trade show. I’ll bring my camera!
Okay, so I got off track a bit…..back to today…..Walmart was sold out of gallon containers of distilled water (for her RV battery), so we went to another Walmart and kid you not, sold out there too!
Between the two Walmart trips we detoured to Cocopah Casino for an hour and I was playing the Wild Cherry slot machine and hit a triple symbol on the first reel, a single bar on the second reel, and a triple symbol on the third reel, for a payout of $180. So I profited today, but not by much.
Yeah, pretty busy day, but uneventful. Tomorrow we are going to the flea market in the morning and don’t know what’s in store after that. Should be fun…..check back tomorrow! Have a great night!
