July 15, 2013 Monday Afternoon

Friday night we did go back to Bastille Days for a couple hours.  I swear since I feel so much better everything looks so good to eat.  I ate like a pig at the festival and even brought some things home to eat later.  Got home around 10:30 PM and went to bed about a half hour later to sleep.  I was so happy my feet the last two nights have let me walk around festivals.  Guess being off my feet helped my foot problems a lot.

Saturday morning we were up by 7 AM.  Woke up on the same side of the bed and that turned into a morning round of some lovin.  Usually the dogs are between us and we are on opposite sides about to fall off the bed.  Got up and fed the dogs and gave Vito his shot.  I took Vito to the vet at 9:30 AM to get his nails trimmed.  Tony watched the dogs and then cut the front grass when I came home.  I laid on the couch around 11 AM to just shut my eyes for say 10 minutes.  Woke up at noon to find Tony sleeping on the couch in the spare room.  We have to go to a family pool party and should have already left the house since they live an hour away.  Quickly packed what we needed, let the dogs out and drove to the party.  Had a great afternoon eating, talking and swimming with the kids and adults.  They have a big deep pool.  This might be the one and only time I get to swim this Summer so I took advantage of it and spent a lot of time in the pool with a big hat on and a T shirt so I wouldn't get a burn.  Ate so much food and desserts my stomach should have burst.  Left around 5 PM and got home around 6 PM.  Fed the dogs and gave Vito his second shot with food for the day.  Spent the night watching the weeks two episodes of One Life To Live and the past two episodes of True Blood.  Went to bed around 10 PM exhausted from the swimming all day.

Sunday morning we again were up by 7 AM.  Did the lovin thing again this morning before getting out of bed.  Wow, two days in a row.  Got up and fed the dogs and gave Vito his shot.  Went outside and picked a big bowl of black berries from the front yard and made pancakes with black berries in them.  They were so good.  Nothing like eating food you personally pick.   The black berries have just gotten ready to pick and I should get a few days of berries this season.  The berries are huge and we must have had the right weather conditions for the berry bushes.  Around 11 AM we went to the South Shore Frolics on the south side of Milwaukee.  It was getting hot in Milwaukee so thankfully this festival is right on the lake front keeping things a bit cooler.  Spent a couple hours walking around the car show, listening to the band, and just sitting on the grass enjoying the breeze and talking.  Drove the long way home along the lake and got home around 2 PM, after buying the weekly lottery tickets.  Took an hour nap and then watched TV until we fed the dogs supper.  I was not cooking so we decided to walk up two blocks and have supper at a bar called Tracks.  Had a great hamburger and even a drink.  Walked home and spent the night watching the last two episodes of Rookie Blue and then went to bed and soon to sleep.

This morning I was up by 6:30 AM.  Fed the dogs and gave Vito his shot.  Last night was my first night taking Epzicom instead of Truvada.  Funny I did not have a sick stomach this morning?   Maybe the Truvada?  Time will tell.  Hate changing HIV meds but doctor thought it best to switch from Truvada to Epizicom because I might be getting Neuropathy in my feet from the Truvada.  Left the house by 9 AM to go to Walgreen's to buy two 24 packs of water on sale for Tony and his employees.  It is suppose to be close to 90 degrees every day this week.  Working outside or in the shop is very hot.  Thankfully Tony has an air conditioned office which I continue to remind him to spend time in rather than being outside in the heat due to his heart condition.  Then went to McDonald's for two sausage burritos.  Drove across the street to Walmart (my favorite store, NOT) and bought a ton of freezer bars and Popsicles for the employees this week in the heat.  Bought a freezer full of ice cream treats for them.  If the employees are happy they get more work done.  Dropped off the freezer pop treats at the shop, told them to make them last the week, and then headed home.  Spent the day doing things around the house staying indoors as much as possible to stay out of the heat.  Tony will be home soon and he will be hot, tired, sweaty and smelly.  I will direct him right to the shower.  No supper until he showers when it is close to 90 degrees outside.  I swear on hot days like this he comes home like Pig Pen from Charlie Brown with a cloud of stink around him.  LOL.  Will most likely spend the night watching the last couple episodes of Wife Swap and TV from the DVR before going to bed.  Damn it is hot outside and only getting hotter as the week goes on.  Will be catching up on magazines and books this week.
