~A Fixed Ceiling !~ almost...

I woke up this morning, at 7:20 I want you to know.. I slept

late..I think I probly could have slept longer but I was waiting for

Kenny and I thought he would be here early..he didn't get here

till after 10 or so.. He plastered the ceiling..The hole that was

above the bedroom door it still doesn't look dry to me..but then

Im not a ceiling repairer..He said hes coming back tomorrow

and sand or something.. He wanted to move the couch and I

asked him not to. It would be major moving because of the

risers..and it really takes 2.. He worked around it which I really

appreciated..he covered it with a tarp.. He left about noon

and came back with a de-humidifier for the basement.. He

said he will check it tomorrow or to have Penny check it

when she is here.. as damp as it is down there I bet it will

fill up fast...
I rolled into the living room this morning..and I smelled some

thing..and it wasn't something I could put my finger on as to

what it could be.. I rolled into the kitchen and it wasn't as

strong there..THEN..as I rolled thru the hall and into the bath

room past the heat register I felt the air coming out of it...

the smell was from my FURNACE ~!~ it was so cold in here

that it clicked on.. I had my thermostat set way down to 40.
I am NOT ready for a higher gas bill..That is the one thing

I dread about winter.. Maybe If I make sure the window is

done and the front door is sealed good..put some heavier

drapes in the bedroom maybe that will help... I was not

expecting to feel the heat, but I have to admit as cold as I

was it really did feel good :-)
I got a call from Sherry this morning at COA, and I was really

surprised and very glad.. She said that Robert wasn't able to

do yards for a while and they had so many that needed help

that they decided to hire a yard service to cut peoples grass.

I thought that was really great... It didn't take him long, and he

didn't come to the door at all..he did a good job.. who he was

or what company I couldn't see as the truck was parked too

far away for me to read the sign on the side of the door.. I

was, am so glad to have it cut.. I told that to Sherry, she said

if the city did give me a ticket for not keepin my grass cut to

just let her know and she would explain I was with COA..that

made me feel better...all I need is a ticket for that... :-)
We had to watch of course, the boy doesn't miss too much.. I

don't need to say where LB was..his highness was on his

usual perch on the back of the recliner..Those two will miss

that thing if I get rid of it and put my sewing machine there...

They will probly just lay on that.. They lay on the floor a lot and

it may sound weird but I hate when they do that.. I would

rather they lay on the chair, or couch, my bed..any where but

on the floor where people are walking and who knows what

they have stepped in .. :-) well that's true, lots of stuff can stick

to shoe bottoms.. Lots of times Ive watched how on different

peoples shoes they will smell and try to rub every part of them

selves on that shoe... Its funny though I wonder what they think

when they see these other people with shoes and feet and

then see me with none... Hmmm.. doesn't seem to matter to

them but I know they LOVE shoes..toes especially..my sister

can tell you that...

When she would come over in the summer and have sandals

on with her toes showing..LB used to first lay all over her foot

rub his face on her toes.. then he would move in front of them

and start to wedge his wet nose BETWEEN her toes and it

would drive her NUTZ...she would laugh and push him away

only to have him turn right back in a circle and do the same

thing again ... She didn't wear open toed shoes too much

after that...

I miss shoes tho.. I loved those nice high spike heels.. I wore

them every chance I got.. I just looked at a online catalog which

thank God didn't take paypal..and they had some really great

shoes.. I always look at them...This catalog had lots of other

stuff too..clothes that were just beautiful..but WAY too pricey

for my budget.. I need to make the black top for the leopard

outfit.. I may leave them as pants just to take a photo to show
I have ACTUALLY put pants ON after all these years. ... 5

now ... long time... I still prefer skirts..lots easier and I would

think more comfy to wear... plus I think they look so much more

feminine which is a good thing..specially when.... your a

GORGEOUS WEEBLE :-)

I have a little of my meat pie left after Donnie had a TASTE of

it..TWICE last nite.. He mumbled a few times "This is SO good"

He hasnt had mine in awhile.. And meat pie the next day is even

better...I didn't have lunch so im hungry ,, SO.... its 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.....
