~I Was Up Early~

I want you to know I got up with the birds this morning.

4 am.. I just couldn't sleep any longer..I tried.. I laid there

for what seemed forever but I just did not go back to

sleep..I got up..made coffee and of course checked my

email and rebooted..but this was AFTER I fed the boys.
They have to come first..they only allow me ONE stop

before they start to nag me to feed them, and I don't think

I need to tell you where that first stop is.. :-)

It was so nice out last nite I sat in the doorway and watched

and of course listened to the traffic going up and down this

street out here.. I did enjoy listening to my chimes though..I

love those things, I can even hear them when the door is

closed, I didn't realize how much I missed them until I got

these put up..

I was going to take a shower today and boy what I have

to go through to get set up.. I mean Im already totally give

out by the time I get into the shower.. Gathering at least

4 towels..then pulling and dragging that shower bench

to where it goes is MAJOR.. I have to totally LIFT it up,

then swing it around and THEN put it back INTO the tub.
Part of it sticks over and then I have to get in there.. Its

not a very easy thing to do..and takes a lot of energy and

TIME...

I was tired before I started and by the time I got the bench

set up..the towels out..my clothes and everything I sat there

for I bet at least 5 minutes wondering did I want to just take

a bird bath or go through this whole ordeal of a shower?
I braved the doubts and slid across that cold slippery bench,

turned the water on and I will admit it did feel good.. I just

wish I didn't have to go through so much to feel that.. I cant

believe when I stop to think of all the little minor things that

I had to do with legs..it wasn't hard at all.. I am sure finding

out just how easy I did have it.. But I did get my shower ...

There are parts of my life I have never written about much less told

about..but in the past few days things have drastically changed and

I am sincerely hoping which I am convinced they are..for the better..

I know my life will be changing from what I knew.. A long time ago

when I was in my first phase of my life..when I was married.. I had 2

sons.. due to circumstances I have not been in touch with them

for over 35 years.. As of today, I have spoken to both of my

sons.. I have learned I am gramma to 5 wonderful children as

well.. This was a major step for me..but it was time..I was

adopted.. I never knew my birth mother.. I wish I had- I had so

many questions.. as do my sons.. Im glad I found them and

made contact.. its good for them and for me.. That's why I

was up so early this morning.. I have been so excited about

this I cant stand it.. This is such a good thing..Im pleased..

But now I am hungry.. So now I need food and I am gonna log off

this puter and take a 5 .. Im kinda tired...even though I didnt do ONE

single thing today..just getting up early makes me tired and makes

my butt sore from sitting for so long...You know what THAT means..

Time for my GORGEOUS WEEBLE "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.....
