~Gas Went Up~ :-(

Squirrelly is reclaiming the birdbath :-)

My gas bill has gone up 30 dollars this month. I
called about it of course since Ive not changed

the thermostat or anything... I talked to a girl

in Nebraska, of all places, our gas company is

in that state? I didn't know that.. Anyway, this

girl proceeds to tell me that the weather here

in Michigan is the same as what they get there!
I lived in that state for a year... and there are

NO trees in that state, well not around North

Platte where I was.. We have trees which thus

protect us more from the winter elements.. This

girl says.. "The weather we get YOU get".. I don't

think so.. but what a stupid thing to compare and

the reason for the increase in my gas bill!! :-)

Some people's kids, I'll tell ya... I wasn't pleased

with the increase and talking to her about it, did

NO good at all.. but I found out that it was an

actual read and not guesstimated... I hate when

they do that...
They decided to all share :-)

So, yesterday was great.. 100 taken out of one of

my checks every month and my gas bill going up,

I hope this is it for the end of the year!.. I seem

to remember January last year was kinda squeemish

too.. I hope this new year starts off good and I can

get all this settled and straight before it starts...
2 female cardinals? I think so...
My sis called last night to tell me about her Christmas.

There were about 30 there I think :-) Her new house

was sposta be better, but as fast as her family is

growing with all the new great grands... she may need

to move to a bigger house or next Christmas rent a

hall :-) She laughed when I told her that.. She loves

Christmas even though she wears herself out sewing

and making sure the kids have a good Christmas..Shes

a good mom and gramma, and sister :-)

I had a good time watching that squirrel this morning.

He sat in that birdbath for almost an hour eating, then

took off for a while then came back to restock again..

He was steady chasing the birds away, they kept on

coming back and finally gave up on getting in the bird

bath and ate what was on the ground and they all had

a good feed.. :-) I enjoy watching them.... there were

2 of the female cardinals too!

Well its lunch time and I am late posting this as Travis

just left.. Hes such a nice guy, poor thing sits here

and listens to my whines and gripes and complaints..He

listens with a smile :-) So now, I am hungry and I am

going to have some left over hamburger helper that

Penny made yesterday, its pretty good.. So this

GORGEOUS WEEBLE is done writing this but! "I

shall return! :-)

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...
