~Drips N Drops~


I got up early again today and while I was drinking a coffee
I heard some thunder and it started to rain ..as time went on,
it got harder and harder. I noticed the boys were like guarding
a spot over on the rug, they both sat there staring at the
same place. I went over and as I got closer i saw something
go past in front of me falling downward..yuppa..the ceiling
was dripping again..Apparently Kenny didnt fix it.. I put a bowl
under it and I should have put something in the bottom of it,
but I didnt and I sat here drinking coffee listening to that bowl
fill with water, I heard every drop, drip and plunk into that bowl.
Now, you KNOW how tempted I was to phone Chris at 530
this morning to tell him my ceiling was leaking AGAIN.??. I was
nice and I let him sleep till 9 before I phoned him.. He even
answered on the 2nd ring, I guess he wasnt afraid to talk to
me this time..maybe thinking all was well hey? little did he
know..bless his little heart :-D...

He said "I guess Im gonna have to replace that ceiling" I asked
him if there was a crawl space to get in the attic ..he didnt know,
I didnt, its his house, I looked tho afterwards, and I didnt see any.
But if hes gonna keep this house, hes going to have to fix the
roof.. or hes going to have some serious water damage, no telling
where the rest of that water is going..maybe only a part comes
out over there, Could be going down the wall..wouldnt THAT be
just cute? the whole front wall fall out to the yard..that would not
be good... He needs to do something..

We talked or rather I asked him if he had any other places and
what I was looking for, that I wanted a bigger place and that I
hoped it could be on the water.. That I would like it to be my
own if I could buy it..or if Donnie could and let me rent from him.
I could do that too..But I told Chris I have to have some sort of
security.. I would like a bigger place and perhaps have a room
mate if the house is set up right.. Even 2 floors would work,
depending who the mate was..and if they could climb stairs.. I
would like a more easily accessible house.. This carpet in here
kills me ..but I dont want to take the chance that the floor is bad
under this either then what would I do? And Chris said what is
under it is whats under it..he wont replace that since I would be
pulling up pretty decent carpet.. I dont know..but I need to get
this show rolling though.. and sooner is better than later..

I tried to get my appointment changed so that possibly I could
go to Chicago this week but I cant, I had to wait 3 months for
this one with the vascular guy so I guess I should go and see him.
I just will put off going to spend a few days touring the town when
I dont have any plans and too someone may want to help me
tour that place..I know there is lots to see.. I think it would be a
great holiday, that or take that train ride I want out to Boston.. I
have so many things I wanna do or get or have or need.. I dont
think there is an end to the list..but i think thats so for everyone,
if we didnt have that we would settle for what we have and not
TRY to get better or easier or what we want.. I know my list just
steady grows....

My wants and needs right now of course is food. lunch was chicken,
roasted I guess, mashed potatoes and all the stems from brocolli..
you never get the buds..and the chicken I had a wing and a leg.. Its
ok for me..I think of these ones, that could use bigger portions so
they have some supper..I wonder if they think of that when they put
the food in these crappy looking containers.. Well I have some
good tv dinners in the freezer that I KNOW are good..thats what
Im going to have, just one of those small ones..I dont like to eat
heavy in the evening..I dont sleep good then..and LORD KNOWS,
I NEED ALL my beauty sleep to keep this GORGEOUS
WEEBLE just that way :-D... "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.....
