~ A RED Day ~

Well today was just FUN.. not really but.. well I did it to

myself again.. made the biggest mess possible and of course

had to clean it all up.. I got the box of the angel food.. every

thing in the box was VERY cold , mostly frozen.. well one

of the items was a bottle, a plastic bottle of ketchup.. RED

ketchup.. I was taking things piece by piece out of the box and

had set the catsup over to the side, as it was a salt free kind

and Dawn is trying to help Donnie stay away from salt.. So I

wanted to give that to them..

As I went through the box I put things here and there, where

ever I could find a clear place... I took some green beans

that were in a bag and set them by the bottle of catsup on top

of a bag of frozen fries.. The bag of green beans slid..hit the

catsup..the catsup fell off, the floor and HIT just the corner of

the catsup bottle and knocked a piece out of it .. Well the

catsup went ALL over.. It shot out of there just like my Icee did,

only this time was RED. :-) It was so cold..the plastic was hard..

why it broke like it did.. I would think that's the reason, what

ever it was.. It was EVERYWHERE!!! and GUESS who had to

clean it up::??? :-)

It got my white floor..my white refridgerator..my white garbage

can.. and.. my tire.. That was fun.. I just did my usual survey of

all the damage..rolled back..and just at that time the phone

rang..and I had to roll INTO the living room..to get there I had

to go thru the ketchup..but I didn't see that then, I did when I

had gotten to the phone and started back ...well I left a line

behind me..and by rolling onto the carpet.... THAT cleaned

OFF my tire!!! now I had to clean carpet TOO.. So I roll back

into my now RED kitchen .. and had to decide just what I was

gonna do.. I mean ..this was a major cleaning.. I knew Dawn

was coming ..but I didn't know when.. she had a full day..so I

knew if Ieft it and didn't get it up..it would be worse by the

time she got here.. So I had to clean it.. I bet I went thru a whole

package of napkins.. :-(

I must have bent over, sat up..bent over again.. well I KNOW

at least a dozen times..and had to unlock and move..lock down..

start all over.. Both the boys sat on the table and just watched..

I know they both were thinking.."the crazy woman did it again"...

I swear.. we were so nice and clean.. and then I go and do this..

I cleaned it best I could..before I just couldn't do anymore.. my

arms ached so bad and from squishing my self in half .. my

stomach ached.. Bending forward.. I can only JUST barely

reach the floor..so that makes me have to really stretch when I

wipe up stuff.. plus I have to hold on to my chair too.. I automatically

reach behind to the back of my chair and hold before I lean over

at all... its safer.. Only good thing was.. I hadnt eaten.. so I had

even more room to fold in half..

Needless to say.. I am tired.. I don't feel like cooking so Im just

making a ham and cheese sandwich.. I sure got my exercises

in today..my whole body got a work out in that cleaning session..

I do this to myself.. well I don't think it would be nearly as much

drama if I wasn't in this chair.. it would have been a lot easier to

clean up..thus is the joy of chair life.. we just have to adjust and

try to figure out plans of attack to accomplish what we need to.

I already know my plan for the rest of this day..and it is in there on

my bed.. but first I better say my GORGEOUS RED WEEBLE

words.. "Nitey Nite"..

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and thanks :-)

Always, Lois ****
