~Dont Look~

count all the buddies :-) see the 3 bloomies? one right in the
middle.. :-) I LOVE my yard :-) somethin is chewing on the
leaves.. :-(

Usual day today.. Ive not done too much of anything lately.

Nothing worth writing about anyway :-) Or that I think anyone

would care to read about.. Ive mostly been just enjoying the

view from my doorway out to the back yard.. Not too much

gets past me.. I see Carl going back and forth to his garage,

the one by my drive way. When he walks across the yard to

go out there or to go back to his house, he walks with his

head down, looking at the ground..Same thing he does when

I see him leave walking down the street, for his daily walk.. I

wonder sometimes if hes ever walked Into anything :-) He

sure misses a lot not looking around.. :-)

A friend phoned me this morning, just to say hi and see how

I was.. which I am ok.. nothing great, but I'm here ! Anyhoway,

they said they were going on a picnic, I asked was it by a lake

or river, and its in just a park..nothing spectacular.. That I guess

you would call a picnic..My idea of one is by a river or lake to

add to the fun and of course to build up an appetite.. :-)

When I was married to David we would go to a park by the river.

I forget the name of it .. but it had a boat launch and tables..was

a big place, even had band concerts in a special dome thing..

Well the little kids were playing with a ball.. and they were a bit

too close to the river...the ball of course went in. Sheila, my ex

sister in law, Davids brother Mark's wife, decided she would

TRY to get the ball for them... She walked over to the boat ramp

and took off her shoes and proceeded to go down that ramp

to the river.. We all watched as she laughingly did this.. If you

know anything about boat launches..you KNOW what happened

next... :-)


Sheila took a few steps... the next thing we saw were her 2 feet

and legs up in the air as she did the nicest whoopie de do , and

landed on her butt IN the river.. Boat launches are VERY slippery

to feet.. Why she didn't know that .. well we all laughed and of

course ran up to see was she ok.. She was sitting there in water

up to her waist, she HAD the ball! All she said was.. "MOVE the

game away from the RIVER!~ :-) I'm NOT getting this thing again!..

We had a good laugh.. she WAs soaked not counting all the slimey

green grass stains on her butt ! :-) She was cooler than the rest of

us.. didn't bother to go home and change, she dried very fast..The

kids saw her in the water and cool ..the kids wanted to go swimming

too!!

I know my birds are enjoying the bird bath in this heat.. The past few

days its been up in the 90's..There is NO air outside and I can feel it

in here, my AC is running good AND constantly, AND its not leaking.

The hall is dry. Penny checked it today.. I'm glad.. I was NOT going

to be responsible to any damages to the carpet..Bad thing is my

electric bill has already doubled.. :-( that does NOT make me happy..

and its only the start...:-(


Well its lunch time and we're having grilled ham and cheese IF

Penny has time..it was a busy day today.. and the time just went

by so fast...Every time I type I hit the letter a.. -( I don't like the

keyboard on this laptop..Maybe cuz my nails are too long? I dunno..

What this GORGEOUS WEEBLE DOES know is shes hungry...

so that means its post time..BUTTTTT.... 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...
