Doctor’s Day For Scout!

Not today, Big Guy!

Colleen and Mark have been married twenty-four years today!  We are so happy for them; they are a perfect match!  We wish they were closer to us; New Hampshire is too far away!

Happy Anniversary, 24 years!

Scout has been itching, and we tried all the OTS items we could find.  We decided it was time to go to the doctor and get him some meds to stop the itching.

“Please, please!  Not the doctor!!!”

We went to the nursery after dropping him off but found nothing of interest, so we went home and found a Del Taco on the way.   Lunch time!!

We shared an Epic Fresh Guacamole Burrito – Loaded with a choice of freshly grilled, marinated chicken, freshly grilled carne asada, or Beyond Meat®, slow-cooked beans made from scratch, cilantro lime rice, fresh house-made guacamole, and fresh house-made pico de gallo, all in a warm, oversized flour tortilla.

In the afternoon, we walked the garden and checked on yesterday’s plantings; all looked well.

At 5:00 PM, we headed to TTrue Food Kitchen in Fashion Island; Mary did the Grilled Korean Steak, which is sliced 100% grass-fed sirloin, forbidden rice, mushroom, bok choy, gochujang glaze, miso sesame vinaigrette, and herbs.  I went for the Grilled Sustainable Salmon, served with smoked grains, cilantro pumpkin seed pesto, broccolini, charred onion, and basil.

Dinner time!

We had a ball sharing and teasing.  Chick and Lisa will be back with us on Friday to go to the Valentine’s Day dance at the Elks.

I asked Chuck, “Have you read Dr. Seuss’s book about organic food?  It’s called  All Natural Eggs & Gluten-Free Ham.”

According to the latest news I heard on TV, healthy eating does not have to be troublesome.  Nutritionists claim it is easy to say whether you follow healthy eating rules.  It is all about colors.  Fill your plates with many bright colors: reds, yellows, and greens.
I did that precisely this morning.  I had an entire bowl of M&M’s.  It was fantastic!  I wouldn’t have thought that healthy eating could be so easy!

We gather together at the table.

They are a delightful couple; we met Chuck as the bartender at Partty’s Place many moons ago.

Chuck and Lisa

Returning home, we crashed.  The healthy food and wine did us in!  Scout seemed to be resting, and we did see him itching.  We have a load of meds for him; he might have more than Mary and I.

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
