~Start With a Bang~

Today started out with a bang.. a massive thunderstorm woke

us up.. The kids ran and of course when they did that they woke

me up cuz they were laying on each side of me ! LB was on my

right so when he jumped straight up I didn't notice that much..but

Dutch when he took off he ran straight across my chest and THAT

woke me. Usually one of the rules for living here you have to adjust

to the fact that when we have a bad storm we will either lose cable

or phone or both.. Usually cable it was really bad for a while just a

light flash and it would go off...As the morning wore on though it

cleared up and got warm its 80° out as I write this.. and it sunny

and nice, the boys are layin in the sun.. I was going to put the pics

of LB and his girlfriend today but I got in a discussion with a friend

and the time slipped away and I had lots to do so...I didn't get a

chance to write it..I will maybe tomorrow..The piccy is just of one
of the little birds out by the feeder..I love taking pics :-)

My Angel Food was delivered today and boy did I get some good

stuff I ordered 50.oo worth. the main bunch is 30 then you can

add other boxes of meat that you want.. I got a nice steak and

ribs and sausage as the extra.. it will last a long time.. plus there

were 2 TBone steaks..those I like.. not often, as I'm really not a

meat eater.. A nice salad with vinegar and oil dressing..is good

for a meal for me, but every once in a while I like meat and usually

I have a burger or meat loaf..The food today was great and it

will last me for a long time.. Since I wont be getting the canned

food box anymore from CAA I just have to start watching the sales.

Although I did look up on line about CAA and their food boxes..We

get one a month, and then every 3 months you get a 2nd box.. I

looked on line at how you qualify..so unless theyre fibbin..I don't

have to do anything for the 2nd box but ask for it.. I refuse to give

the CAA my personal insurance card info OR my social security

number.. I'm registered with the Dept Of Human Services and I

have been getting this stuff for 6 yrs.. I don't know why I never

paid attention to this.. yes I do.. I NEVER had to fill out anything

when I was renewing my card..like what would change anyway?

I was gonna grow back legs and not be disabled anymore? I'm

not giving them that information..it was the same with COA they

wanted ALL my personal info too.. I'm NOT giving out my SS

number to anyone for any reason.. its too easy now to have your

id stolen..not that I have anything worth stealing - but still why

take chances.. I plan to call CAA Monday to verify what I read..
I have a feeling they made up their own qualifications. I hope

they keep better records over there now.. that one woman kept

everyones file in a box under her desk! I had needed some paper

work from them before and the woman took the envelope in HER
CAR and it fell on the floor..a month later I called to inquire what

happened.. well she found my mail..under her car seat.. bad

job skills I say and if that's any indication on how Nonni does her

job..well I think they need to revise their work hapbits a bit...

The kids were due to stop by and as of this writing ive not heard.
They were going to check out a new kind of wood stove that burns

green wood,, no smoke, ash, creosote ..nothing.. and it costs over

7000 dollars.. a lot but he plans to heat his whole 4 bedroom house

tri Level .. and his garage.. AND his hot water..He gathers wood all

year, hes got a fire place now he uses to heat and only uses the

furnace for back up.. Its a great wood stove I read up on it, its by

GREENWOOD... So the kids may be getting one of them Its worth

it if it does all it claims.. I know they will be here as I told Donald I

had some food for them so I KNOW he wont go by with out stopping.

They have to go right down 131 which is only 2 blocks, in fact I can

see the light down there thru my living room window...Which the sun

is pouring thru right now making my ceiling fan not much good. I may

have to turn on the AC.. In the winter the gas is outrageous.. in the

summer its the electric.. I don't know how much energy this fan

pulls, I know its really nice in here when its on.. the air circulates and

it helps spread the cool from the AC since its in my bedroom..

Well not much news for today, I am working on another story that

I promised a friend I would write, I had told some of my escapades

and they asked that I write it out in story form.. I plan to and

then maybe add it to my other life stories..I bet if I wrote every

single story I would be writing every day for 6 years :-) Now its

time 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 .....
