~Meet My Brothers~

I would like you to meet my 2 brothers..They are gonna spit if

they saw this..well its MY photo and MY blog..so I can do what I

want .. yes?? On the left..in the red shirt we have my oldest

brother Kenny..He is the 2nd oldest..MaryJane was the oldest

of the 6 of us..she passed away 3 yrs ago on my birthday..Kenny

was never adopted like the rest of us were..he was sent to one

foster home after another..He had it really rough..He knew our

mother though as she found him or he found her I don't know.

but from what I can gather he and our mother were very close..

She lived in Milwaukee and he lived in Racine..very close..I

got a call a few months ago and Kenny is starting to have some

trouble with his legs.. He had to have a bypass..which I remember

quite well having my self.. Worries me.. Hes a strong active man

and is doing quite well..Hes retired now and lives only a few

miles from my sister and my other brother up there on the right,

that's Frank...

Frank is a year older than me.. He and Kenny and my sister

Shirley all live with in a few miles of each other but sadly they

don't see each other very often...which is sad..we need our

family.. I try to stay in touch with them as often as I can.. Frank

drives semi, has 3 grown children and I think probly about 12

grands by now..His daughter Punky blessed him with 7 or 8

grands I think..Frank is a diabetic..like Shirley..Im not, neither

is Kenny hes like me with PVD..I think they look a lot alike

and I think my sister Shirley looks like them.. I don't know WHO

I look like although Ive been told I do look like our mother but

Kenny said our sister Rose that also passed away is the one

that most resembled her...But those are my 2 brothers..good

men..stinkers at times..but good guys..
I was sitting here yesterday after I posted the blog and I hear this

mower..I look out to see who it was and it was Robert coming to

cut the grass.. I was so glad..it was really getting long! was looking

really shabby..He rides on his mower then goes around the edges

with lawnmower and does the edges..He uses a weed whacker

to trim around the trees and poles..
He had a guy help him yesterday I didn't see him come with him ..

but after I looked at this photo I think it might be the guy that lives

next door on the east side..<>

blow the grass off the sidewalk and I know Robert doesn't have

one.. He had been sick and went to hospital with food poisoning.

said he got it from subway up on main street..yet his wife ate the

same thing and nothing happened so I think maybe it was some

thing else.. I was glad he was better so he could fix my yard...
That bowl the squirrel is eagerly eating out of is full of the sun

flower seads that I had Penny pick up for the animals.. The

squirrels LOVE them.. This squirrel is so funny..he will see us

watching him and he will deliberately turn and look right at us,

then run up the end post on the fence and sit there and twitch

his tail at us.. He acts like hes mad cuz we spied on him.. I

know the rabbit came up to try to eat and that squirrel ran him

off.. I don't think the birds like him too well either..the way he

twitched that tail at us he might be a squirrel with an attitude!!!

I sent Penny to the store today to get a new hose and apparently

that's not the problem..Penny said the pipe is bad or something.

it may need replaced..she said when she turns the hose on it

sprays all over where its connected..she thinks something is bad

cuz it did the same thing when the new hose was connected too.

So hopefully when and IF Donnie comes tomorrow to put in my

AC for me I can have him check it..I don't want a water leak cuz

then my water bill will go sky high and then it may leak into the

base ment and I already get water down there I don't need to

add more!.. If Donnie doesn't come tomorrow I will call Chris,

he will probly send little Kenny and he may not know how to fix

it.. Kenny was sposta come and pick up all the branches out

in the yard for me too and he hasnt.. These guys never keep

their word.. But my morning glories are doing great .. I cant

wait for them to go all over that fence..

Now, Im gonna go eat my lunch that I didn't eat before..its fish

today which I do like but this..I dunno but I will check it out..if

Dutch doesn't eat it when I offer him a taste I know then its not

very good.. and I aint eatin it either !..I got up early too and my

butt is telling me to get out of this chair for a while..So..that

means I have to write 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.....
