~New Photo~



Well I took a new picture..hope you like it.. I kept my word..lol
And I just took it this morning plus - you got Dutch too!! :-)
I do believe this hand problem is carpal tunnel as I can hardly
move my wrist today at all..I called and asked my sis how hers
acted and mine is doing the same way. I cant move my thumb
or wrist..well I can but lets say why would I wanna make it hurt
even more? lol. I guess its time for it to act up..I used to wear
a brace on it that kept it still, I have NO idea where that thing
is now...Tomorrow is a day of phone calls..eyes, dr. teeth..
sheesh..I'll have a cauliflower ear by the time I'm done lol...Oh,
my sis is doing ok..just SO ready to get that "DAMN" cast off
and thats a direct quote LOL....

I have been seriously thinking of taking a holiday..I think it
would do me good to get away..Anyone want a house guest?
lol..only for a couple weeks lol..There is a nice casino over by
the lake and I am thinking about going there. I had thought
about going to Europe, just to say I have been there, but I
dont really think I should. not alone anyway. But Its a nice
thought to go...I went to Atlantic City once and I had a great
time..I won $500.oo.. I won it on my 3rd pull of a slot machine
handle soon as I got there..Needless to say I just kept it and
didnt spend any of it.. I still won even more later that day.. This
was a long time ago when I was with my 2nd hubby, He had
a daughter lived by there then and it was great ..we went to
Caesars Palace...I had a wonderful time, I've never been to
Las Vegas either.. I wanted to go when they had those white
tigers..what great animals...

Today was fight the shower day..I mean what a major thing to
do.. Took me over 2 hours from start to finish I bet, if not longer.
I need to come up with a better way.. Its really hard since the
shower head is mounted on a wall slider thingie to adjust for
height..but it makes me have to go up so close to the wall to
get under it..well how close can you get in a wheel chair?
This shower chair is NOT comfy by a long shot..I have NO
idea why it is so uncomfortable to sit on..sure makes me want
to HURRY up and get the shower over with. I do feel safer in
it but its still alot of work to take a shower specially when you
have long hair and have to really hold on with one hand. It
works tho and I guess thats the main thing.. And a nice hot
shower sure does make you feel better.. I dont shower every
single day as it is such a procedure i do perhaps every other
or so..I take what I call a bird bath between...LOL .. I wash all
the major body parts of course, and it keeps me fresh and
sweet smellin. :-)

Poor Dutch has been working on trying to tear this bag of
kittie food open since Becky brought it.. I had to put it in
another bag as he almost got me when he spent 3 hours
last night trying to rip it..The picture up top is of Dutch and
I - he HAD to get in it...What company these 2 are tho..and
its really amazing how different they are . LittleBoy is so
laid back..and just fluffs around..where Dutch is so active,
anything he finds is a toy, even a piece of food.. I was so nice
to them I got them some treats!! and would you believe they
DONT Like them? Now is THIS picky or what? some peoples
kids I'll tell ya...saves me some money not having to buy them
treats tho doesnt it? lol...

Well I got up again pretty early today..I fell asleep at the end of
Cops..I didnt see the end of it and it was on between 8 and 9
so I fell asleep TOO early is why I got up at 4 am..lol...and no
nap today...I did get my inbox cleared out and caught up on all
my email and scolded the ones that quit writing to me.. I wonder
why people do that tho..start to carry on a email correspondence
then just quit..no rhyme or reason...I hate when that happens..
Ok food time I was lazy most of the day and didnt cook..*sigh*
wanna come cook for me? lol.. naaa its ok... Ill grab a snack and
head to my nice soft bed and gather all my pillows around me
and snuggle down and watch tv ..HAHA I KNOW what you're
thinkin too.."she will be asleep in 10 minutes " lol.well you
probably will be right :-) Hope you had a great weekend..

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...
