~Re-Arranging Stuff~ :-)
As today as moved on Ive gotten a really bad stomach, I
wont go into details, but Penny came today and she hasnt felt good
either.. I told her we BOTH better not be coming down with crap..
Then we WOULD be in trouble. I hope its not the flu. I hate when I
don't feel up to par. We got a lot done though and I have earned my
tired again today..Friday will be even more so.. I plan to move my
credenza I have in my bedroom next to my bed out here by my desk
in front of my window. I wanted a filing cabinet and had thought of a
new desk with a file drawer in it..but I cant do that either I checked
either.. I told her we BOTH better not be coming down with crap..

new desk with a file drawer in it..but I cant do that either I checked
the prices on those.That's why I havent gotten a filing cabinet.Theyre
not cheap either.. So I decided I need this storage that I have in the
credenza..It is up off the floor by about a foot and has sliding doors
on it.. Its full Of stuff now and I would have to take all that out, to put
the stuff I want to hide in here in it. All Im really doing is re-arranging
stuff, but I would need some place to put the things I have in it now.
I looked on line for a metal cabinet with shelves..I thought that
would be handy in my bedroom to keep all this sewing stuff in
it too, to neaten it up a bit.. Well I didn't find one, not at Meijers Or
Wal Mart, so I looked at 6 shelf wooden pantries are what
theyre called.. Meijers has them under GARAGE storage. fancy
Garage with Oak cabinets, :-) The price on those are almost
100.oo.. Everything is so expensive.. I had a nice wooden one,
just like what I want now, I had it in my kitchen for all my baking
and spices, noodles.. I kept in it.. When my ex packed up MY
things..well of course..he kept that. I sure could use it now.. I
wonder if he took it to Mexico with him ?
But I have to make a plan of how to do all this moving of stuff..
But I have to make a plan of how to do all this moving of stuff..
Penny and I talked about it today. If I move my credenza out of
my bedroom then I have no table by my bed to put my lamp,
or anything on it..and I need that, but I could get a smaller one
like a night stand for in there..but then Im right back at the cost
factor.. But If I can get some of these storage things..and can
re-arrange this stuff it wont be so cluttery in here which drives
me nutz.. I hate clutter and stuff everywhere. I told Penny that
even though I do plan to move, I need this place to be in a
better organized way. I watch those shows on TV where they go
into someones house and redo it for them.. Boy would THAT be
nice.. Or have one of those extreme home makeovers..where
they build a whole house and furnish it..and fix it to the needs of
the people..Sadly they never do that stuff for single people..which
is understandable..Kids need a good place to be raised and to
be safe, big familys need that.. Its a good thing they do.
I plan to IF I feel better in the morning, to start to undo the credenza,
and I don't know how, I havent figgured out how I can move it by
myself..Its not on wheels..so I cant pull or drag it.. I would have to
move it , just move by move..which..wow, with that carpet in that
bedroom I bet would take me a while.. But I bet I could do it.. I bet
I could get in my power chair and move it easier..I have to plan so
I could get in my power chair and move it easier..I have to plan so
that Penny doesn't have to do it all.. I think I can, wanna come here
and help me? :-)
Sandra phoned today to inquire about the visiting Physicians, had I
heard from them, I told her I hadnt but I hoped I would so I could get
back on their schedule..I wouldn't have to worry anymore about blood
work or Dr visits or anything..They come once a month. Its been a
long time since I had them.. I bet..4 years at least If not longer..before
I got my computer...that was the end of 02.. She said she is going to
get me a new cordless phone.. I dropped mine and there is so much
static its hard to hear it..Its a hearing impaired one. Sometimes I get
calls and I cant hear what theyre saying and there is a button on this
one I can hit and it makes it louder with a control just HOW loud.. I
thought my phone before was bad..then I realized it wasn't the phone,
was my ear.. I have a broken ear drum and it has gradually gotten
worse, so I cant hear out of my right ear very well.. My sister is REALLY
deaf.. You can stand right next to her and she wont hear you.. When we
talk on the phone I can hear her TV loud as can be in the background
until she turns it down.. so I can hear HER better..Sandra said the phone
is on the way.. I have put off asking Donnie to put a phone jack in my
bedroom.. I could ask the phone company but they would charge for
that.. If I could get down the basement.. I would have a phone in every
room.. I can wire that my own self.. Ive done that before ..all you need
are splitters..
Well im done for today and I am ready to get out of this chair.. I hope I
don't have to keep rolling back and forth to the potty WIth this stomach
tonite..that is the hard part of being sick and in a chair. Its hard enough
to get up and stand and WALK when your sick..well.. think how NOT
easy it is when you have to scoot around in the bed, back up,, and do
ALL that 3 more times before you can get back INto bed... Aint easy...
that includes On and off the potty and back on to the bed :-) Im off to
get on my bed, lets hope I can stay there for a long while.
But,.First my GORGEOUS WEEBLE "nitey nite" :-)
Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and Thanks! :-)
Always, Lois ****

In NY, we had a stomach virus or flu going around I had it for 4 days or so. I took chamomile tea, pepto bismal, chicken soup and rest. They say it was the flu, - I have the vaccine and got it anyhow. They say the flu vaccine was not effective this year - follow my regimen and you will feel better.

Hi, Honey,
I hope that tummy of yours has stopped playing up this morning. Some of these bugs going round are pretty tenacious, I'm still coughing with one I picked up at Christmas - I'm a bit brassed off with it now - been there, done that, got several T-shirts!!!
Do you have an under $100 column in your local rag? (Sorry, Newspaper!!) You might find the furniture you need there, without paying an arm and a leg for it. (You can't spare any of those!!) There might be a second hand furniture shop in town? We bought a lovely, solid oak, hand crafted, Welsh dresser at a second hand shop in Minehead for a very reasonable price. The proprietor even delivered it. Our dining table and 8 chairs and our full height corner cupboard (Sorry, closet!) were bought at auction. Perhaps you could get that filing cabinet that way??
Look in Yellow Pages for "House Clearance" - they have to sell the stuff somewhere!!
Take care, Honey,
L.O.L. & G.B.H. from

Hi Momar,,,
Its going around here something awful.. everyone I talk to seems to have some stage of it.. Ive heard the same thing about the vaccine.. I havent gotten a shot for flu in a few years.. I dont think it works..
Hi Raife,
Yes, I check the paper all the time and different stores etc that I know of..there are not many here that I know of anyway, Goodwill but they dont have much furniture.. I will keep looking..
How is your cough? I hope getting better...
So nice to hear from y'all hope you had a great day today..Take care and stay warm and dry ! :-)
