~Scarey Alone~


I still am not up to snuff and I feel fevery today, I get to feeling a
little better then the next minute I notice I really don't feel very
good at all. Then I have to make a B-Line to go and lay down.
Its not a feeling that I can put down into words other than to say
its a blah feeling. up and down. I didn't sleep real well, the same
thing of just not getting comfy and my hips starting to ache.I did
notice thru all this though that being by myself with no one by
me and being so sick Its kind of a scarey feeling. The only two
that were looking after me were my boys, not that they did not
do a good job, they did, but its not quite the same thing as a
person in the next room or someone if I called out would get
me something or answer me back..Well the boys do answer,
LB is very vocal and will meow, but I still am not the very best
at KittyEnglish. I try but I havent quite mastered it. But it is a
sort of uneasy feeling when you are laying in bed and know
there is no one to really answer or to help you when you are
very very ill...

Lori is due here tomorrow probly about 10 she said she would
be here and of course Penny is due.. Dawn came by today for
a little while, she was going to the store, seems Donald was
out of Rice Krispies for is breakfast, now starting a day off
wrong for him is no cereal.. like the rest of us with coffee. Hes
doing good though as well as can be expected for him..Donnie
is not one to be down for long and has not had anything very
serious serious happen to him so hes not used to being so
restricted in his activities.. They did put the pontoon into the
lake today she said, so hes happy and ready to start fishing
off of that now. The lake he is on is a really good one for fish.
He usually always catches something when he goes. His dad
loves to come and fish off the pontoon..but then that to me is
the very best way to fish, so much easier than in a boat, so
much room to move around and not all cramped up.

Ive been working on a story and being sick I have really
gotten behind on it.. I havent written too many stories as of
late Its been quite a while since I have..The one I am working
on is going to be really good and I am co-writing it with a
dear friend of mine that is a very good writer. We have each
written parts then we put them together and edit and it is
turning out to be really good I think.

Its really nice out side today and the sun is shining, I bet most
everyone is in the middle of spring fever. I know my sister gets
it really bad, Stanley has been in Haiti for 2 weeks and is back,
She always gets new flowers to plant but I think she is getting
to where she plants flowers that she doesn't have to replace
every year. She has the most beautiful yard all summer with
all the flowers and especially roses she plants. They have a
big yard and a nice deck and a screened in porch that she
uses all summer as she is like me and loves sitting outside
in the evenings.. She used to have a swing that I loved to sit
on..reminded me of my grandmothers that she had on her
front porch that I sat on many many times..

I havent eaten anything today and really don't know what I
want. I know as soon as I do eat I will get tired and head
back to my bed again... I have to send Penny to the store
tomorrow to get a few things..the boys are almost out of
cat food.. I was so worried when I read about that cat food
that was not safe..thank goodness my boys don't eat any
of those listed..I only give them Friskies, canned they seem
to like that the best..I tried a lot of others and they do know
what they want..Dutch if he doesn't like something will try
to bury it..like he does some of the lunches I get from COA.
He knows the good stuff from the bad..


I am hungry tho and I am going to go and fix myself some
thing..Im early again and I have no choice ..If I wait till later
there is no guarantee I will be able to make it back here
so I have to do this while I can.. The photo is one of the
ones I took for last week I didn't have the energy to dig
out my cam and hook it up and try to look half way decent
for a picture..and if I look like I feel..well I would give every
one night mares Im sure :-) Food time, TV time and
Time to say "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..

    Hi, Honey.
    Been thinking about you a lot to-day. Had a little word with the Lord - asked him to take good care of my fav . Weeble. Managed to get the heaters on in church this morning. Trouble was, I forgot to override the timer and it went all cold about half way through the service! ;o( I had to get up in the middle of a hymn and turn things on again - boy, was my face red!!
    I've been on my own since Thursday last, but it is a very different proposition for me than it is for you. I can get up on my hind legs and get about the place, reach the faucets and the sink and the closets and the cooker. Yet again, I WISH I were closer, to be able to help. Take care, my dear, L.O.L. & G.B.H. from
    Raife

    p.s. Love the pic - thank you. ;o)

    Dearest honeydear!
    Its allways good to read about when you feel well, and that seems to be more seldom nowadays.... I am worried over you. My dear Lois shall have a GOOD life, and i cant give her that, that is so sad!
    Now for the second part.. You write with a friend? Well we shud write a fiction together, about your thoughts and mine. Like this--- You write: She waited there for him etc. and i write: When he arriwed he looked into her etc. As a sort of reply on your writings, but from another point of view, mine...
    I shall present the ideas, next time we chat!
    But until that:
    Get well and KAO´s
    ****+*
    Your own

    Good evening Lois.
    Sometimes it take a while to get over the flu.
    The weather here has been great. Becky and Pam came over for lunch, had a good visit with them. Easter Sunday they will spend the day with us...
    I think they want to color egg this week, going to let the staff do that with them this year...
    Get well my friend.
    God bless you.
    Mary

    So that yucky stuff is still sticking around! Sorry to hear that.

    My first early irises opened yesterday, so it seems like good times are coming.

    Feel better soon!
