~The Same, But Different~

! was answering a letter today from a friend. a lady that is a dak, like me, and really having a hard time. She is a widow and close to my age. We both have had heart bypasses. Its surprising how we have the same health issues..the cause for the amputations may be different, but the end outcome is the same.The pains and trials..and tribulations we all face. The things that some of us have a real hard time accepting I guess would be the right word.. Some I know are so mad. just HATE the chair... which no. they dont really hate the chair.. they hate the fact they have to LIVE in that chair. Thank God it was invented.. or we would be on the floors. or bedbound.. I say many times when I get so frustrated that I HATE my chair.. when No, I Really dont, I just get so upset at what I have to do now.. to do what I could do so easily before. We all, of course, discuss devotees, and we gripe, complain and warn each other of ones we have had run ins with that have proven to be very disrespectful of us. I think that is the key word.. RESPECT.. I told my friend.. I refuse to accept anything less.. I give it.. I expect it back. If I find I dont get it.. then I will break contact. She feels the same way. I have some of the dearest, kindest, most wonderful FRIENDS.. if they want to say they are devotees.. well ok.. but they to me are my friends she has some herself, that she trusts and give her support with uplifting words and sweet letters to encourage her.. which we all need... I would be so lost if I didnt get email or read comments to this blog.. I LOVE them... I answer every email I get. I appreciate them all. .. I told my friend that we all need to have someone to complain to or to whine a bit .. and that I do mine by writing.. ask those I email lolol specially after they read a 10 paragraph letter from me and their eyes can go back to normal lol.. Writing is a good out let for me..I have always been that way... I really enjoy it.. I told her to try it.. She is having trouble with the loneliness.. which we all suffer from.. I do, but not all the time.. I have always been a "house mouse" I never did get bored if I had for what ever reason be confined at home. Was never a problem.. But too. I have always been a seamstress and a crafter, i can stay busy doing something.. let me find a good movie even.. I just dont get bored.. Now dont get me wrong I do like to go.. I miss fishing.. I do.. I was a great fisherwoman.. My ex kept the 32" Northern PIke I caught and had mounted.. I know hes saying is his lol...naaa MINE MINE :-)...I caught that puppy in ICE LAKE.. lol. . I have got 2 of the sorest arms today lol.. RATZ..cutting those fuzzies!!. I told my sis what I stupidly did.. plowed a path thru them.. She laffed at me.. said "See what you get. should have waited for Candis to come and do it." . She would have had a good time with Dutch all he did was aggravate me since he wont give up on anything he really wants hes so stubborn..It was funny tho.. There is a path out there thru my dining room.. I dont have a digital camera so I cant take a picture to show it.. but trust me its there. I talk so much about Dutch, well hes such a CAT, and not very much about LittleBoy, hes so good and never gets into trouble but gets some of the side effects of Dutch's punishment when hes bad when I have to lock them out of my bedroom. And LB hasnt done anything .. so unfair. But I have no choice sometimes.. Thats LittleBoy's picture tonite. In case they get to read this I woudnt want LB to think I only talk about his brother.. They look almost identical but are not related..LB is a totally differnt, laid back, don't worry type of cat, His Royal Highness is LittleBoy..hes quite regal .My big boy... :-) .. Well my arms are sore and Im going to log off and watch tv for a while ya, I will be asleep in 10 minutes if I lay back on my pillows..the trick is to NOT lay back~!~ then Sometimes I make it thru a whole show.. That QVC has some great stuff on there. My sis usually gives me a gift certificate for there for my birthday and then I can pick what I want and I have seen some great clothes and RINGS lol...:-) I do have an empty finger that needs a new one lol.. Well Im off to my bed, by way of the kitchen, just soda tonite, I KNOW! I am NOT hungry..now isnt THAT a first? lol..Never thought you would read THAT did ya? lol...:-) Y'all have a good one now y'hear? Luv ya.. Thanks... ALways, Lois*** May God Bless you today, I'm so honored to call you friend, I pray the Lord will keep you safe, Until I write again...
