~No Kenny, No Word~:-(

It is 5pm Friday, and I havent heard a word from Chris or

Kenny so I am assuming that the work wont be done today

either.. This is what I mean exactly..No consideration for

anyone.. They could have phoned..said that Kenny wouldn't

be by yesterday or today.. I don't understand these kind of

people.. Say your going to do something do it.. Well I have

only to wait till next week when Lori gets back and I am putting

all this in her hands.. I cannot deal with people like this..It

just brings out the worst side of me. I have tried every way to

deal with Chris and have done all that was and is expected

of me.. I should be able to get the same from him I think..but

then slum lords have no consideration for people, only the

money end of it, and as long as that's coming IN and not

going OUT for repairs or whatever..to them, that's good. I

told Chris that I have such a hard time with the fact that he

said his own house is in the same condition as this..and

that he parks on his own lawn...well.. where I come from...

we have pride and try to keep our homes , communities

in a good condition.. I cant say that for Chris..not once can I.

Penny came today and I have to admit I had to apologize

to her today because I was so crabby and just in such a

bad mood..its from all of this.. We got a lot done tho.. My

new clothes rack seems to be serving the purpose.. but

what Penny and I had to go thru..well wasn't easy.. The

clothes rack we put into the bathroom..we had to take the

stackable drawers I had in there back down to the base

ment.. I hated that..this basement drives me nuts knowing

all my beautiful material is down there getting ruined if it

isnt already.. Then we had to re arrange the bedroom so

my new power chair could fit in there as I kept that in the

bathroom too.. We then had to transfer all the clothes out

of the closet onto the clothes rack.. They are so wrinkled,

its pathetic...

I found a steamer at wal mart..I looked on line to see if they

might have something..They built the new one next to Meijers

down there..and 99% of the people prefer Wal Mart as they

have a bigger variety and are ALOT cheaper on most of

their things.. Food, I don't know...But the steamer is 32.oo

which isnt bad.. Tomorrow is the first so I should be able to

fit in into- well take it out of my budget I guess.. Everything

got hung up and we noticed that there is a place for another

shelf in the closet which would be good for me to be able to

reach.. I drove my power chair today and I am just NOT a

good driver in that thing.. Im nervous around the boys in it..

They forget they cant go under it when they see me coming

at them..I worry I would get them caught between the chair

and a door facing..they could easily lose their tail like that..

Penny got me all squeaky clean as she wont be back again

till Wednesday now.. Since Monday is a holiday she is taking

that day off.. She has another client after me and she will be

seeing them tomorrow.. I will have to call Dawn or Donnie to

see if they will come by if they have no plans for the week end,

being labor day they might..but if Dawn has to go to the store

tomorrow maybe she can pick up a few things for me.. I don't

get my food stamps till then..and since Penny wont be here

for 5 days now..I will be out of stuff for sure.. If Dawn cant ..

well that's another one of the joys of this wheel chair life..I

do what I can and that's the best I can do.. I try.. I wont starve

if no one goes to the store for me.. My worry is the trash and

the cat box, that sort of thing.. I can clean the litterbox, but I

cant take it outside..It should be ok if I keep the bags closed.

I don't know the regulations about holidays and that..but every

one deserves a holiday.. I don't think she gets paid for it tho..

and will have to make the time up another day.. I guess I don't

know.. I should find out... they never tell us anything..

Im tired..we worked hard but got a lot done.. I got up early again

at 5 am.. LB woke me whining in my face.. They both think that

breakfast time is at 5 am.. How or where they got THAT from I

have no clue.. They get me up..eat and go back to sleep..I get

up, have a coffee and Im wide awake and cant go back to

sleep.. I did have a short nap tho today after Penny left at noon,

I had to.. I was so tired.. Stress and work..well it will make you

tired..it does me.. I hate being stressed out..and seems the

harder I try to get rid of it..the worse it gets..I don't know.. I guess

I can keep treading this water.. as long as I don't run out of it!!!

Now Im running out to the kitchen getting a soda and some

crackers and heading to my bed for some TV. Long holiday

weekend many will be celebrating.. I will too right here in front

of my wonderful computer.. "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.....
