~Carmel Corn ~ :-)

I'm miserable today. My eyes hurt to open them. I don't plan

to stay up for long.. Penny is here and we are all clean and

shes making a nice beef roast for me that will be good today

AND tomorrow too :-) Specially if I have the energy to make

fries to go with the good gravy I know that roast is gonna make.
I need to remember to ask Penny to change out the grease in

my deep fryer though.. I made some breaded onion rings that

sure messed up the oil in my deep fryer.. I have a really nice

one that has a lid so it doesn't splash all over...I usually only

make fries in it but I wanted to try the onion rings they looked

SO good.. But sadly I couldn't eat them. Some, yes, but with

no bottom plate I cant eat anything hard.. I miss lots of stuff

specially popcorn.. I love Carmel corn.. :-)

Its another rainy damp cold day AGAIN.. and I sure can tell..

I have the worst headache and if my toes werent already gone,

as bad as they hurt- I would seriously consider cutting them

off myself.!. No. I wouldn't but that tells you how badly my right

stump is hurting.. I think this rain has a lot to do with it..

When Penny was here Monday I had her add 2 more comforters

to my bed and then the sheepskin.. Let me tell you .. It HELPS!
And ALOT! Only way it could be improved is if the top comforter

was satin.. I could slide and move around a lot easier.. To move

on or off my bed is very strenuous.. My bed is a tad lower than

my power chair so when I back into it..it involves LIFTING as well,

not just the pulling myself backwards.. This transferring is NOT

easy.. I worry about that.. What if I did have some more heart

problems.. After my triple bypass I wasn't allowed to do anything

with my arms for 10 weeks ! :-(


Plus.. I will admit Ive gained weight.. Penny says "No.. not much,

if any".. But I know I have, I can tell.. Harder to reach certain spots

specially if you have short arms anyway :-) Gaining weight is a

major factor in transferring.. well more I have to lift or drag around..

To get off my chair and up to the side of the bed where I sleep in

volves at least 3 to 4 turns.. depending on what I have on.. and the

material.. Silk .. I slide a lot better.. But its NOT easy.. and to get

on or off I have to turn totally around.. :-) Joys of chair life :-)

Well I have to stop writing it does NOT help this GORGEOUS
WEEBLE'S sore eyes.. So I'm gonna post this, tell Penny bye

and wait for lunch to finish cooking then its relaxing on my bed

with hopefully a good movie on HBO.. which I doubt.. Just

remember.. I shall return! :-)

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...
