~Penny Made It!~

Talk about a rainy blah day, all it did today was rain. My stumps

sure told me it was.. Penny came today and the boys and I were

very happy. I tried to keep up but sure isnt easy. I cant reach my

knobs on my sink to turn the water on to even wash dishes..so I

couldn't even do them, nor could I reach the boys litter box. That's

why I said we all 3 were very glad she came today and was feeling

better.. The boys especially, they are really fussy.specially LB he

doesn't put his feet in the litter box, only to quickly cover then hes

out..he perches on the side of the box, like a bird sitting on a perch.

He would do real good on the potty. Ive seen cats that do that. My

sister had a Siamese that was potty trained, only thing she couldn't

get him to do was flush it, :-)

I still am working on balancing my checkbook and its already the

end of the month..I need to do this as soon as I get it..but I get

so discouraged when I mess with it cuz it never balances for me.

It seems it always has to be off just to keep me riled up and get

a headache..THEN it hides the mistake so well it takes me for

ever to find it! That's why balancing this book gives me such a

pain. I call my bank so much they know my voice! :-)

I got a call today that they will be coming to pick up my rented power

chair. They have stopped paying for it even though I don't have my

own yet..The funds were cut on this just as it is for a lot of stuff we

get here. They will cut Pennys hours the first of the month too. I

don't know what to do then, she barely has enough hours now to

do everything. This state is so broke and we are always the first

to get the cut backs.. I heard the state of Illinois is good as well

as New York. Indiana is worse than Michigan, I used to live

there, so I know.. my nephew is disabled and he is having an

awful time getting any help and he has 3 kids still at home.. He

hurt his back years ago..and it has steadily gotten worse. Hes a

good kid though..handsome too and a good son, hes good to my

sister and that means a lot..

I would like to take a holiday and I have been saying that for 3 yrs

now..I wonder what year I will finally get to take one.. I would love

to go to Europe..London, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Germany,

all over..I would be just as pleased to take a holiday and NOT

leave the states :-)... Every state is a wonderful place.. I have been

through most of them and lived in quite a few.. I do have my favorites,

but each one is great and all are just beautiful... I would love to have

a huge bus, or a big RV and just travel the rest of my days.. Stop

when ever I wanted,, go to a new town every day or stay for a week

or longer if I really liked the place..Go North in the summer, south

in the winter..How wonderful that would be.. I just have to get someone

to donate that RV or bus to me..and I don't know anyone that has a

spare one..I could ask Monaco Coach to donate one to me..They

make some of the most beautiful coaches of any company and what

is so nice is they will build them to suit the owner and some are

even TOTALLY wheelchair accessible..That company does great

work and make some of the finest coaches anywhere. I just wish

they had a donation program that I could apply for... THEN I would

have to find a driver...that would be fun..I wonder who would be

willing to travel around North America for the rest of their days

keeping me company and of course driving.. I bet I could learn to

drive it though..with hand controls I think would be very possible..

I bet I would do as good with that as I would that riding lawn mower.

I could just see me driving under a bridge and getting stuck ..that

would be about MY speed too :-) But I sure would love to do that,

travel..not get stuck under a bridge :-)

I was sitting here at my desk and I have a lot of stuff up on top of

it, which I guess I really shouldn't have up there, since the boys

like high places.. Although it wasn't the boys that did the clearing

off of the desk this time. I have some cat figurines up there that were

given to me and they look so nice there too.. I have some candles

in these brass holders , in back of them.. I THOUGHT I could

reach the candles..and of course being blind in my left eye I

have NO depth perception and I thought I was grabbing for the

candle and went past, moved my hand , the candle fell out and

hit 3 of the cat figurines and like dominoes they all fell off the top

of the desk one by one.. None of them broke and thankfully did

not hit me or anything of value, like my keyboard or monitor. They

would have only dented my big box, my computer, and Im glad

they missed it.. I don't know why I try to reach for stuff and even

THINK I will touch what I am aiming for...I have so many joys..

being blind in one eye, and have the joy of being in a chair.. Its

wonderful ..so exciting never a dull day. :-D life is fun.. I love it :-)

Time for this chair to roll off towards that room where my TV is

waiting for me to watch it, LOST is on tonite and I still am lost

in that show.. I guess I missed too much of it to understand

what that place really is.. its ok though..I still like that Medium

its pretty good...I bet that poor woman never sleeps...all those

dreams she has... good show though.. TV's are a good thing

just like pets.. "Nitey Nite"

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? love ya..and thanks :-)

ALways, Lois ****
