Sat., 1/14/26, Went to Faith Riders Chapter breakfast, stopped at Vikki’s to drop off food, came home and played with Asher, took naps, Bill blew leaves, I went to Meijer and got at 25.5 lb. Butterball turkey and a Meijer 21.6 lb turkey, also a ham.

Had 21 of us at Faith Rider Chapter Meeting today.  That container behind my cup is for my creamer.  It’s Tupperware.

Asher chewing on his bully stick

Such a cute good puppy

He got tired of chewing his bully stick, and I looked down and he was sleeping on his back

Asher woke up at 5:30.  I took him outside, then fed him.  I put a little water on his food and he loved it today.  I played with him and he is doing good at coming when I say Asher come and show him a treat.  He is coming faster all the time.  I weighed him and he weighs 4lb. 8 oz.  He’s gained 4 ounces.  We went to Faith Rider’s Chapter Meeting for Breakfast at the Bringer Inn.  They have such great breakfasts there.  I had their breakfast sandwich on homemade toast.  I had to bring half home with me.  Bill had oatmeal because he is still eating soft food.  He hasn’t taken any pain medication for it since the first day he had it done though.  Vikki texted me to see if I could order breakfast for her and drop it off on our way home.  I told her yes and ordered what she wanted.  I took my new creamer container Vikki found for me and loved it.  It holds more creamer but isn’t real big.  Wes forgot creamer and was happy when I had some to share.  Sometimes I forget and he shares his flavored creamer with me.  We dropped Vikki’s food off to her.  She came out to get it which was nice since we wanted to get home to Asher.  When we got home, he was being good in his crate.  It was 3 hours we were gone and he still had no accidents.  I took him out and he went right away as always.  I love that he goes fast.

I played with him and did some practicing calling his name and saying come, then sit.  He does it every time and is getting faster at it and is paying attention from a farther distance to the treat in my hand.  He ate his little 1/8 cup lunch an then I took him outside again. 

I played with him, then put him in his crate and went to Meier to get 2 turkeys and 1 ham, plus some other things.  I came home, left Asher in his crate, and put the groceries away.  He was excited to see me, but waited like a good boy til I got done.

Then we played more.  I hooked his leash end in a kitchen drawer, and gave him his bully stick while I fixed dinner.  We had soup and a ground bologna sandwich.  Asher ate his supper while we ate.  He played with Kit Kat through the sliding glass door.  Kit Kat played back.  They are getting to know each other through the glass.  

I worked on my blog, while Bill slept in his recliner and Asher fell asleep on the floor.  

I talked with Vikki and she is babysitting Thomas and Abigail.  Abigail was happy to talk to me.  I said hi to Thomas and heard him answer too.  They are sweet kiddos.  I told Abigail I was going to be her Sunday School Teacher tomorrow and she was super happy.  She always comes and takes my hand when I teach and we walk to class together.  Vikki is supposed to stop in after she’s done babysitting.  

I talked to Melissa for a few minutes.  Now I’m going to rest while puppy is sleeping.
