Amputee life before and after...

~Quiet Place~

Sitting by this backdoor I can't help but notice how
quiet it is here. I kinda miss all the action at the little
house. I liked watching the people, so many walked
down that street. I'm hoping I can go down to watch
the Sturgis Toy Run, I hope I can find out about what
time they will be coming through here, Rebecca and
Penny both said they would come and watch it with me.
I think it would be great to see that again, Ive been a
watcher of it for 2 years now.. :-) I heard an ambulance
yesterday and when I did I thought of this quiet and
how I don't think ive heard an ambulance siren here
since I don't know when.. At the little house that was
common at least once a day :-)
I noticed the ramp guy and he is a right amputee, I
saw him come home yesterday and took that photo.
Penny was telling me about one of her clients that
has just lost her leg below knee. I told Penny if she
needs someone to talk to as I gather she is having a
very hard time accepting it, she can call me and I will
help if I can. I know how hard this can be and some
just have the hardest time and really if you have no
other health problems its NOT really that bad. If I
didn't have mine I would do more, well I would FEEL
like doing more, lets put it that way... The ramp guy
goes out a lot every few days I see the woman take
him or he has a friend that comes over in a beautiful
aqua colored pick up that parks his and takes the
ramp guys red truck...They usually take him in his, Ive
not seen him go very much in the car the woman drives.
My cardinal is getting to be a regular visitor and I sure
enjoy listening and seeing him.. His sound of "purty, purty,
purty" just echoes, like hes telling me hes out there..
Look at the cardinal.. then just to the right you can see
a little chickadee I think, coming in for a landing.. I was
MOST impressed when I saw that photo !! My impatients
in that hanging thing are so beautiful they look like roses.
I sure am glad Penny found that, its one of my favorites
and since shes moved them both to the partial shade out
there they are just flourishing.. I LOVE MY YARD ....
Nice day today and Penny has gotten us all clean for the
weekend. I have no plans other than to write this daily,
of course, and not one other thing is on my schedule...
and its gonna be a nice warm weekend too ! I talked to
my sister yesterday and they are planning a two week
trip up north to the UP of Michigan.. Lucky dogs ! :-) I
would love to take a trip back up there.. I miss it.. just
a long way away..

Whats close is the kitchen and my sewing machine, so
I'm gonna turn my Sturgis Oldies Radio station on and
sew up a few things.. I have company coming next week
and I may make a new skirt.. :-) Lunch time too and
time for my GORGEOUS WEEBLE "have a nice week
end !! " :-)

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...

    Wonderful pictures you put in here Lois...
    Lois I'm leaving on Tuesday morning around 6 A.M. I have my sister in law coming over everyday to feed my pets...I will be back Friday afternoon or that night.
    My leg is doing some better but my right knee is still given me some problem. Putting a little knee brace on it today, it sure does sweat with it on.
    God bless you Lois
    Mary
