Our baby Tex is sick. He has a kennel cough. Called the vet but couldn’t get in. But they did prescribe some coughing pills. Trying to make him feel better. He is eating and drinking and acting fine just coughing fits. We feel so bad for him.

We have a Dunkin’ in our town! Jeff went out of his way one morning and got me a coffee. I have to say they are just as good as the one we like in Green Bay. So excited. I can be excited for coffee. lol!

I finished these eyeball coasters. Turned out great!

I made this tiger too:

Well, my computer says no to the vacation video. Just too much for it to handle. Ugh! Seriously. Anyway just gonna post some pics of my faves instead here.

Dignity Earth was amazing! She’s so beautiful!

Prairie Dogs were the cutest and some you could walk up too

Mt Rushmore was cool to see. It was the hottest day though. So sweaty. lol!

At Custer’s state park, the donkeys came right up to the cars. Wish we had bought them something to eat. They were so cute.

The Badlands were our favorite. Can’t believe this used to be the ocean.

Driving through Needles Highway was amazing!

Ellsworth Outdoor Museum was very cool.

We had such a fun time. I can’t wait for another vacation.

I am back from vacation. It went too fast! Jeff and I had a wonderful time except hotels. The first hotel was gross! There was mold in the shower and nail clippings on the side of the bed. Yuck! Thankfully only had one night there and the hotel gave us our money back for that. These were all Hampton inns. The second one was so clean! It was a nice hotel and that is the one we spent most of the time 3 days at that one. The last one was gross as well. The chair in that room smelled like urine. We were so tired that got there around 11 at night and just wanted to sleep. So all night for me was urine smell and I didn’t get enough sleep. I’ll have to say that they couldn’t care less what condition the hotel was in for the last hotel.

I have to say this about South Dakota people in general are the nicest people ever! It was crazy how nice they were. I am making a YouTube video on vacation and I will leave it here. So, I can remember our wonderful vacation.

Went to my cousin’s wedding. It was nice. Everything was unconventional and I liked it. The actual wedding was all of maybe 20 minutes. The strange thing was the wedding was at 2pm but the actual dinner and dancing weren’t till 6. It was too much time in between. We left before dancing because our dog needed a potty. It was fun to see cousins who live in other parts of the USA. The place was pretty where they had it.

Then after that day, we went to Mom’s bday. It was supposed to be a lot of people but ended up being the same crew along with my aunt and uncle. Which was fine to me. Mom loved her pillow and we also gave her a Hobby Lobby gift card. It was a fun day. Then the day after we went on vacation.

Last week I couldn’t get myself together for some reason. It’s just one of those life things, I suppose.

Hmm, what happened last week. I went to the dentist for 5 mins. To get my nightguard adjusted. I was having some real pain in my upper jaw; all I could figure was the nightguard. It was that but now it hits in a different spot. I can’t get back in so, don’t tell my dentist. I am going to try and shave some off my guard by myself. Lol! It worked out! No longer is my nightguard hurting me.

My husband bought me 2 gifts! He’s so sweet. I really wanted a colorful hat. I was thinking of Green Bay Packers hats but none of them I liked or was colorful. Then he got me this:

I love it! Then he got me a shirt. It’s me and I find it funny!

ROFL! That’s me! I am a Dunkie Junkie. I love Dunkin’ coffee it’s so yummy!

Next week no blog post. Going on vacation! I can’t wait haven’t been on vacation for a long time.

It has happened. Jeff pierced my ears on Sunday. All good and they look nice. I got the smallest earrings too. I feel that would be perfect for healing and so far so good.

I made a pillow for Mom’s birthday. I have never made a pillow like this before. I think it turned out good.

I also made these coasters. The flag ones are my favorite.

I didn’t get my ears pierced even though I really wanted to. The wait was insane to get them done. So, thought of getting them done at a tattoo place but damn it’s so expensive. Now, I know I shouldn’t do my own ears but I am going for $7 dollars. Well, Jeff is going to pierce my ears. lol! Oh well, it’s happening this weekend.

WTF???? Pay money to get Tex groomed and it was shit! I told Jeff we have to get Tex groomed my allergies are bad. So, we took Tex to be groomed and they did a shit job! I am mad! They got shampoo in his eye and did somehow hurt his upper back. Went to hug him like I always do and he whimpered. Found he had a little bump that hurt. It finally went away and he is fine. WTF?! They never said anything about it. Also, Jeff and I brushed Tex for 20 mins and he looks much better. WTH! I mean that’s the reason why we got him groomed. UGH! Every pet place in our town is shit. We will find another place next time. Just ridiculous.

It’s finally here my medal for completing this YES.fit.com race. Dolphin discovery 69.7 miles.

It’s really heavy. It’s more than I thought it would be and I love it! The pic doesn’t do it justice but it’s fantastic!

Today I am getting my ears pierced. This will be the last time I do it. If my ears reject this time, I am done for the rest of my life. Going for one piercing on each side, traditional piercings. I will just get more tattoos instead. LOL! But really I am getting another tattoo next year. A lot smaller one and I can’t wait.

I am on a path of finding myself and it’s beautiful! I decided to go on a spiritual journey. I am finding I am worth more than I give myself credit for. I am starting to understand more about my surroundings and how I project myself. I feel this is the way to go. For years I have been trying to figure out God in my life. I believe in God but I don’t feel any kind of religion. This makes me feel good and I am trying meditation. Taking one day at one time.

I got an implant last week Thursday. It was crazy! It bled so much. It was swollen for 4 days. I don’t remember any other dental implants that were that swollen for days like this one. The stitches like always were bothering me. I am glad to have them out.

I have been thinking lately. It would be nice if someone asked me how I was doing. I am always the listener but rarely the listened to. It gets tiring after a while. That is just how I have been feeling lately. This also goes with why I don’t think I am an interesting person. Jeff said I am but he can be biased. lol!

I watched three scary movies in a row and that’s super rare. I also watched 2 fun movies as well. I have been wanting to watch something scary and just couldn’t find anything super scary. I finally watched Halloween Ends. Can that be the end? Ugh, those movies are so very stupid. But I can say I have watched all the Halloween movies. I watched on Netflix Choose or Die. It was scary but not super scary but fun! I also watched on Tubi Borely Rectory 2017. That was fun! It was live-action animation. I love that stuff! Then I watched on Tubi Hell House LLC trilogy really scared me. That’s rare to have three movies in a series that is equally scary and even more so scarier than the first. I thought Hell House LLC 2 was the scariest!

It will be okay. I will be okay with my stomach. I now have a fire to lose weight and get better. I know I can do it because I have done it before. Go me! I walked 2 miles this week and I am super proud of myself for doing so.

Sigh…..April is getting on my nerves again. It’s on and on forever, it seems. I have told her many times that this summer I am busy. That the one time we planned for her to be here was your last chance till maybe fall. She couldn’t come to see me because I had COVID earlier this year. She didn’t come because of her mother. She is 39 years old. She can make up her own mind. Her mother was afraid she would get it but that was several weeks after I had it and was all better. I am mad about it because she hasn’t been to my home since 2019. But I have driven there so MANY times and even helped her move. She can’t come to my house? Ugh! I am done with it.

Sometimes I just to the point that I am done with certain things. I have noticed lately as I have been thinking about my mortality for some reason. It’s a strange thing to explore. Which makes me just be done with certain things.
