Amputee life before and after...

~TRY is THE Word~ :-)

Not a lot going on today, but it sure is a nice sunny day
out there. We are enjoying the WARM :-) I did know
about the heat escaping through your head.. like Raife
mentioned.. but I just didn't put a hat on.. The cold air
was the hardest part, but I made it and none the worse
for wear and tear... :-) When you try, things will work
out.. in time, sometimes the wait is TOO long.. but in
the end.. things seem to work out.. for me anyway. They
will if you TRY!! :-)

Ive been looking at the calendar and plotting my months
budget, which I sure have to do this month as its almost
a five week month.. It started off rough, as they changed
the date of my food stamps.. from the 1st to the 8th now.
So that meant I was a week behind in getting them, which
meant that they didn't let me know in enough time to do
a better budget in case my food stamps run out, which they
did the end of last month.. about the 29th.. I didn't think
this change started till May! I was wrong.. I re checked
the letter they DID send and I read where it was started
THIS month.. So I had to use cash for what I needed this
past week, well since the 29th.. So THIS month has already
started out on a kinda bad, but not really, note.

Hopefully things wont get too scarey this month.. I am glad
to say that there is a new program something like the Angel
Food, but it has a new name now, "Food For All". and the
packages they have are LOTS better it seems.. more to
choose from... Peggy from the church sent me a flier on it
and phoned last nite.. So I did order my usual.. and the
delivery is the 18.. which the other waited till the last
Saturday of the month.. I am anxious to see if its any
different at all.. Its a great deal and I sure missed it
the past while Ive not gotten it.. I'm glad its back.. :-)

I, well Penny, got the box mailed to my son for Easter
and his birthday.. I hope he likes it... He reads this so
I'm not gonna say what I sent... I'm sure he will though.
Nothing spectacular.. but just for him.. Mark told me that
Tyler loves the Power Rangers.. I had some material at
one time of them, I wish I had it now ! But I did get a
action figure of one of them, theres five .. I remember
the Power Rangers from years ago.. What I didn't know
was that they are a Disney creation.. I sent Ty 2 space
guns too that hopefully his mum and dad wont mind.. :-)
Theyre water guns.. :-) I tried them and they DO WORK.
Ask Dutch :-) theyre powerful too.. So Mark and Tyler
can have a water fight on a nice hot day.. I think they
have them in the UK.. :-) I'm kidding.. I KNOW y'all
have MORE than just RAIN over there ! :-) Never see a
Brit without a bumbershoot though :-) Know what a
bumbershoot is? :-) come on Raife, YOU know !! :-) I
will let y'all guess in the comments.. guess right.. hmmmm..
well I can send you a video if you guess right :-) Hows
that? :-) Hey a vid of this GORGEOUS WEEBLE? well...
what better prize is there? :-) Plus I gave you a clue! :-)


My boy is coming over tonite. I called Donnie to find out
his plans to come and get his business cards.. So I asked.
John and he are coming over tonite.. I told him I would
make a meat pie.. Donnie says "Gran, JOHN, is coming
with me.. we're 2 big guys you know!".. like, how could I
NOT know :-) So I am posting this, heading to the kitchen
and making a meat pie for the boys... I might as well
adopt John too :-)... Donnie says he might move here.. hes
another that has lost his job.. These kids of mine are just
having a hard way to go and the bad part is, I don't know
how to help them... I sure would.. Guess I need a plan of
attack for that too :-)

I'm helping my self right now, by going and making this pie,
hopefully they will put up my curtain brackets.. and then I
can get my new curtains up.. Ive been looking at them here
now for 2 weeks.. I WANT MY CURTAINS UP!!!! :-) Tonite,
tonite.. I will exchange that meat pie for curtain put-ER-uppin!
:-) Time to post.. This GORGEOUS WEEBLE says "g'day,
g'day" :-)

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? Love ya and THANKS!
ALways, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today.
I'm honored to call you "Friend".
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again.....
