~Good Today~ :-)

We didnt get near what they said, many did though...

I'm almost afraid to say it, but I feel really good
today. I don't really ache and the sore spot is not
screaming at me.. and I can sit fairly normal.. This
is GOOD~!~ I hope this isnt the eye of the storm,
like I said quite a few days back when I felt pretty
good just to be set back again.. So I'm NOT doing
anything more than what I have been just so this
good doesn't go away! :-)

At 10:30 this morning the temperature was 7degrees.
with a wind chill of 12 BELOW zero. COA called and
said there were no deliveries today.. I called and told
Penny not to come.. There wasn't really anything to do
today so why have her make the drive. She promised
to be here tomorrow. It is so bitterly cold, but we are
nice and warm. The boys go up on the top shelf of my
closet where they each have a special thing they lay
on, so they are nice and warm... and me, I do have a
sweater on but that's only because of my shoulders
get cold very easily, I have arthritis thru my arms
and across both shoulders... why they ache a lot..

They have really been aching a lot lately but Ive been
using them more since I have this hard way to sit. I
use my arms on the arm rests and try to keep some
of my weight on them where all my weight isnt on my
butt.. :-) This kind of problem is common for some
one like me that has to sit all the time.. At least I
can feel when I have a bad spot, those that are
paralyzed cant feel any pain which makes it more
of a problem for them... chair life is NOT fun....

Donnie phoned last night and apparently his furnace
is on the Fritz... He says he will have to use the fire
place until he can get the guy out there to fix it.. With
the temperatures this low and no one there to keep
a fire going he could be in trouble with his pipes freezing.
That would not be good.. He said the man should be
there today. I hope so cuz John is gone and so he cant
keep a fire going ... and I know his cat cant do that
either ! :-)

I am going to make some chili today. Keep your fingers
crossed that today is a good kitchen day.. :-) Ive not
ventured into any kind of cooking mode out there as
I didn't want to have any kind or re occurrence like
last time :-) Today would be a good day for it, Penny
got all the fixin's at the store yesterday..

I say "Thank You Lord!" for making me feel better
today and this GORGEOUS WEEBLE says to y'all
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...

    Hi, Honey
    SO GLAD you are feeling better. Long may it continue!
    Keeping those shoulders warm ought to help the arthritis, but, like you say, being chair-bound can't be any fun at all.
    Take care, Honey,
    Luv Ya
    Raife
