Amputee life before and after...

~My Wing Aches~ :-)


I don't know what I did, maybe went to bed too early..When
I say go to bed I just mean get on my bed and watch TV as
my only TV is in there.. I don't have one in my living room,
which I kinda sorta wish I did.. its so quiet in here..there is
no noise unless its to hear the clicking of the keyboard when
Im typing.. that's not too often... I really don't get a lot of mail
that needs replied to..Those that are letters I try to reply right
away.. There are a few I have written to that Ive not heard of
in a while and I worry that something has happened or perhaps
they got angry with me.. something I said perhaps..I try to be
very careful..but well stuff happens sometimes.. But I do worry
when I don't hear from someone after 2 years then suddenly
they just stop... I don't know what to think.. I try to not let it bother
me but it does.. Anyway, I have a kink in my back..it goes down
my back from my shoulder..draw a line from the side of your
neck down your back to just below your ribs..Mine hurts there so
bad.. on the right side..That's where the biggest draft is in my
bedroom.. I have been putting a woolbie over my shoulders
though at night when I sleep sitting up...
I know I could use a back rub today.. its just THAT sore! If I take
a deep Breath I notice that makes it hurt too.. or turn my head..
THAT is a big No No.. then it really hurts.. but I do have this cold,
it seemed to lighten up yesterday but by the time I posted I was
so tired yesterday I couldn't stand my self.. I had NO choice but
to go and lay down.. this was about 5.. I got up about 3 times
last nite..and back up this morning at 6...But it is really sore, I
havent had a back ache like this for quite a while.. and my arms
arent long enough that I can rub my own back!
I was so pleased today.. I got an email from my Dolly, from Kelli,
my Grand.. She said her Papa (my ex) came up over the week
end and brought her a very nice dining room table..he didn't stay
long though.. Kelli, bless her heart, is going to cook Thanksgiving
Dinner.. and she invited me to go .. Said her house is very open
and I would not have any trouble getting around in It.. How sweet.
Said Dad could pick me up. I know Donnie would. She is the first
to invite me to their house since my sister did last..and that was
back in 2000.. Ive not been invited anywhere sinceThat made me
feel really good.. shes such a good kid.. We are so very proud of her.

Penny feeds the birds when shes here..we are trying to figure out a
way to make a place for this winter for the birds and squirrels that
wont get full of snow.. I had thought of having a wooden type box
and nail it to the fence there by the kitchen window..get it off the cold
ground.. I just would like a place where those little guys can eat..As
much as we enjoy watching these animals..I can give them a little bit
of food.. bread is cheap and they all love it.. That top photo. look at
the trees across the street..was such a gloomy day today that nothing
out side looks good.. Its not real cold but its going to be and they
predict snow for wed, Thurs, AND Friday.. that is NOT good it being
a holiday.. Penny is having her dinner sunday...her boyfriend is out of
town till then..They have a whole turkey , 12 pound, cooked, mashed
potatoes, gravy, dressing, a veggie, cranberry jelly, and rolls, 12 of
them..for 30.oo I think that is really cheap..considering this is already
cooked, you have nothing to do.. That's a way to do a dinner..when
you really add up the cost of time and the cost of the food..that's really
not too bad.. I think Kelli will be cooking and Im sure others will bring
things to add to the dinner. .Jorge has a lot of family living in Elkhart,
so I bet they will have a house full , specially with all the kids...good
thing Kelli has a nice open house... she will need it :-) be nice for her
to do this..its a way to start a family tradition...

Well I have to get some relief from this back ache.. its my ANGEL
wings that hurt :-) what I call them anyway.. my right angel wing.. :-)
Has to be from the draftys... soon that will be fixed.. very soon..
Im hungry and I have some left over chicken and yellow rice..that was
such a treat.. I want to make some saffron bread..Wednesday I am
going to have Penny fire up the bread machine and make a loaf of
it for me.. I just have to get the saffron and currants.. that's what was
missing last time..I didn't put in the currants..theyre something like
raisens..but not as big.. Im not keen on raisens..but currants I don't
mind at all.. I have a old English recipe for currant cookies my mom
and gramma used to make.. really good.. GORGEOUS WEEBLES
need nourishment and rest, "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
    Like the pictures you put in here.
    Could Penny put up something over the window for you, it might keep the draft off of you.
    I hear it going to get cold here on Wednesday, that not what I wanted for Thanksgiving Day... it just make it harder to bring Becky over here.
    My friend Patsy was here tonight to make her party mix, her stove door broke...she is the one that new the song and what TV show it was on not me...
    Have a good day Lois
    Mary
