~I Was Up For A Few~

I made it up for a little while..I still am not well at all.. I did stay

awake while Penny was here which surprised me as I havent

stayed awake that long in 2 days now.. I have no idea what it

is. I think it is just a flu..I got a serious chill when I went to the

Dr as it was cold out..and there have been quite a few

people here as well.. so there is no telling what I have been

exposed to.. But this is the sickest I have been in awhile and

needless to say I don't like it a bit.. :-(

I got the risers delivered today, I was glad UPS delivered

them while Penny was here as the just left the box out on the

porch .. I got them for my bed..but if I can get my new bed

I will use them for my couch so that I can sit on that.. I have

THE most comfy one ever..Its old but to look at it or sit on

it you would never believe its 40 years old..Was my mom

and dads..When Stanley comes the first thing he does is

lay down on that couch and go instantly asleep and tells

me every time how comfortable it is..its 8 feet long and

he can stretch out totally..to look at it ..you would never

know how old it is.. I miss sitting on it..and many many

times I have slept on it..

I did eat a little today when Penny came.. I told her these

trips to the potty are just awful..so I have been afraid

to eat anything to make me have to make even more

trips in there.. But I did eat some mashed potatoes and

gravy and she got me my favorite ICEE..I love those things

and it sure tasted good.. I just have NO appetite at all

and I know I need to eat or I will get weaker, then pulling

this body of mine into this chair a dozen times I have to

keep that strength up, Ive not had anything since sunday.

My boys have been sticking to me like glue..LB makes

sure he has his favorite spot between my stumps and if

the boy tries to lay down there he makes him move real

fast..Dutch has been sleeping on my chest right under

my chin..They got into a serious fight to day and would

not stop..Penny noticed the clumps of hair in the living

room so she knew they were fighting.. THey fight horrible

make each other scream..and then are all licks and pets

on each other ..Kids..:-)

I am headed back to my bed..and again sorry for the

early post but I have to do this while I am up and "on

my feet" so to speak.. My right stump in all of this has been

a real buggar ..aching and sleeping as much as me..It

has woke me up a few times even its bothering me so

bad.. I go to the vascular Dr on the 3rd so I will be asking

some questions..this just doesn't seem that it should be

like this..Anyway..

Thank you so much for all the get well wishes and offers

to come and help me.. I sure wish you could and I deeply

appreciate your loving concern..it makes me feel better,

it really does to know you care.. thank you..Time for

this Sickly GORGEOUS Weeble to go back to bed..

"Nitey Nite".

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? love ya..and THANKS!

Always, Lois ****

God Bless you is my prayer today,

I'm so honored to call you "friend";

I pray the Lord will keep you safe

until I write again..
