~A HOT Day~
It is so hot in here I was a mean mom today and have
turned on the ceiling fan here in the livingroom..It does
make a big difference but I feel so guilty that LB is so
terrified of it..Hes been howling all day and staying in
the bathroom sink.. It is a big difference in the ceiling
fan and the other one.. The temperature outside isnt as
high today, its a different kind of humid out there though.
Dawn was here and said how muggy it is out and I can
tell it in here. I had to wipe my forehead many times today
I was sweating so bad .. I just cannot take the heat.
No matter what you do you cant take off enough clothes
to get cool..to get warm? yes..that you can do.. I sat in
the shower for awhile, but by the time I got out of there it
was so hot in that bathroom I needed another one ... I
don't like heat... I will make some kind of arrangements
for a air conditioner.. I am going to call Stanley, he might
know where one is.. I saw some that are portable..those
are neat..on wheels.. I wish this fan was on wheels..
To move this fan into the bedroom every night is NOT an
easy thing to do.. I have to keep scooting it in front of me
and doing a move at a time. I tried to carry it but that didn't
work at all with that round base and It hit the side of the
door going thru it. I have to plan my attack on all this sort
of stuff.. I tried both those ways, and I also tried to go into
my bedroom backing up and keeping pulling the fan with
me.. WELLLL... I am NOT good at backing up, I wasn't
when I drove a car either.. That took forever specially on
that bedroom carpet.. I move half as fast on it as I do out
on this carpet..I think its because its not pulled tight..I can
see waves in it.. I think the easiest way is to move that
fan in front of me , a roll at a time.. I DID move that puppy
right up closer to the bed though..If I didn't have that thing
aimed right at least all I had to do was sit up and move it.
It worked.. :-D Ya gotta make arrangements..
Some times I think of all the stuff I did so easily before..
from every part of my life..from cleaning, to driving, to carrying
something.. I took it all for granted that I would be able to do
that my whole life.. I am amazed sometimes at how things
for me have turned out.. NOT what I planned, let alone wanted.
But well.. not a whole lot I can do about it..And I really can do
But well.. not a whole lot I can do about it..And I really can do
most..... most.. everything I could before.. not near as easily,
I told Kathy that she had to contend each day with things..and
do it that way, I was really talking to my self.. I had NO idea,
even the slightest idea that I would end up like her... But that
is what I do.. I deal with things on that day, do what I can to
fix them and deal with tomorrow when its today.. Works for
me... I will figure out a way to do something..might take a
while..but I will...
I have 2 half years to find a better place and to make all the
necessary arrangements for what I think is ahead...so that
I don't have to worry that someone else will have the burden
of dealing with my problems etc as it will all be settled by
me before hand.. I would love to find a nice place that is all
that I would love to have, but those I call daydreams.. and
they really are good for you..If I didn't have them I would settle
for what I have and just ROLL and that would be it.. I do
want better.. and I think Its out there ..My prince, well I just
have NO idea what has happened to that man, but then you
know how men are with directions anyway ! :-) I HAD to
say that...I think the poor boy is lost, so its up to me...I can
do it.. I figgure I have at the least another 20 years to deal
with this.. I do.. That's why I think I fight so hard to try to get
things better..
My sister just bought a new house, 3 bedrooms all easy to
get to the previous owner was in a chair. Its in a wonderful
area , the house is only 6 years old..She really likes it.. I
was so shocked when she just had redone her other one.
They just decided they wanted something newer and less
up keep.. All the kids are going to help her, She is a pack
rat from the word go..ALOT worse than me. It will take her
quite awhile to get it all moved..The 2 houses arent that far
apart, maybe 5 miles or so..not far. Its a nice house.. Im
really glad for her...They work hard and deserve it..I worry
about her, her legs are not good at all and she can hardly
walk and to me they didnt look good.. I tell her all the time
to keep a close check on them, I know just how she feels
with them..she uses a cane now. I worry for her..
I got up early and I am going to get a snack and watch TV for
a while..I like that travel channel..I watch these guys play poker
for millions and not break a sweat, lose and just walk
away, like oh well.. its amazing.. time for me to roll away,
"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..

Hello Lois a little hot here too,without the air conditioner I would just die I think....or stay in the shower all day and night...
I went to a sales today, got some good buys.DVD, VCR and a shredder 5 dollars each...did get Michael another skate broadsome he likes so well.
I just found out I have to work tonight 11 to 7 A.M. that a hard shift, I will try to get some sleep, if Pam is able to sleep tonight. Some night she is up all night. And that is too hard on me if she does that to night...I have work real hard all day.
I am mom I do not get paid for it, but this way I know how she is really doing...Most of the time I know God wanting to show me something that wrong...and spending the time there I fine out what it is...sometime I wish God would just let me what it is. But it is good for Pam that I spend more time with her anyways.
Oh I am praying you get a air conditioner my friend, the sooner the better too.
I pray for God to meet all your needs.

I live in my basement - it is naturally cool down there. I have a de-humidifier which I empty every few days. I am working about 1/2 to one hour a day to clean and organize it. In my house nothing is chair accessible. Sometimes, I think of selling both houses and moving to a place where there is cheap housing.

You are a good mother, your children are lucky to have you. You take good care of them.. Just dont neglect yourself Mary and over do it. You cant do it all and we all need help sometimes.. Ive been praying for a AC too.. I keep hopin...
Hi Momar...
