~Saturdays Are Lazy Days~

Saturdays are such lazy days...I didnt get up till 10 am.

Talk about a lazy bones.. :-) I do feel alot better today tho.

My sis called and said she wasnt coming up to see me,

but like I told her I sure didnt expect her to!!! I know she

is having a rough time getting around..I feel bad for her,

I know exactly how she feels.. I do worry about her tho as

she was diagnosed not long ago as diabetic.

When I hear of breaking a leg just reminds me of how

mine started..with mine breaking that november..didnt

take long for it to really deteriorate,..went fast..well from

November to January..about 2 months of agony that was

a really bad time and I remember some..but not alot. I

think I mainly sat in my dark room and either slept or

cried the whole time.. I was a real pain in the patooty.

They really did try to stop the pain..but when gangrene

is eating away at your foot and you watch it turn black

the pain is excruciating..Perhaps it is a good thing I

dont remember all of it...

I remember that first morning after the bk amputation,

laying there thinking.. I dont feel any pain..and trying feel

what DID I feel..and I felt like I was ALL still there and maybe

I was dreaming..that I wasnt where I really was .. till I looked

side to side and saw I wasnt at the hellhome...until I REALLY

looked..then I felt maybe I was still dreaming when I saw the

flat part where my foot should have been...but I was SO NOT

dreaming.. the foot was gone.. I dont know how long I sat there

staring at that.I think in just disbelief wondering how this could

have that this just sneaked up on me, one day I had a foot

and the next it was gone..and NEVER to come back-.was a

very sad, odd, weird sort of feeling.. so many thoughts go

thru your head.. specially . "what am I gonna do now?"

I was thinking of the rehab that I had almost from the very next

morning they made me get up and move around...the rehab at

the hellhome was to just use a walker and hop up and down

the hallway.. and sit for a little while and do arm pulls on some

weights .. and that was only for 6 weeks after surgery.. The rest

of the time I was in there I had to amuse myself if the daily bingo

didnt amuse me.. I did play once in a while and they did off and

on, have some wonderful dedicated people that came in there

to visit us or bring us things..Many clubs or people that played

music came in quite often..The activities lady did a good job

sometimes..

I had talked to a friend about how I learned to do alot of

the things that I do.. where did I learn them. well I made

up most of my own way of doing things that I felt were the

safest, and easiest to do things..Only way you can.. we

can get tips etc but I think we all have to just make our own

individual adjustments as to how we do things.. like my

sister, I can tell her different ways.. but she is built so much

different, that the way I can do something she may not be

able to.. such as sitting backwards on the potty.. I dont have

the leg thingys on the front of my chair.. so when I pull up

against something I am flush up against it.. now for her if

she has her foot thingy she wont get as close as I do..which

may mean more open area..for her to navigate.. Plus she

has no side rails by her potty. well she did I guess, till she

tore the towel rack off the wall LOL.. :-) I can just see her..

I laughed at her lol..she did too tho..and wasnt funny at the

time..but like I told her she had to look like a big mad bird

floppin all over tearing up her bathroom... LOL...

I had to show my lazy LittleBoy and you can see he is enjoying

his saturday...All 3 of us had a nice dinner, I had some frozen

ravoli and sauce and they had a can of their favorite cat food..
I am so glad Rae knows of a cheaper place to get food for

them.. I like to give them 1 can of food a day and of course

their dry food.. I never have gotten them any treats tho.. They

have never had them I guess I should get them some..they

are good kids and Dutch HAS been behaving lately *knock on

wood* lol.. I know better than to say that lol..well I guess I can

there are NO bags of powdered milk or marshmallows where

he can reach them.. Hes up in the closet on the shelf. :-)

Well I am off to watch cops.. I hope they have something interesting

I get tired of watching them arrest all these prostitutes and all the

stuff they go thru to arrest those people..I would think other stuff

like murders or drugs be more important..but its illegal so I guess

that makes it newsworthy..I have more than one channel anyways

I LOVE this cable...what a treat...We bid you good nite !

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...
