~More Rain~

We are expecting some severe storms
this afternoon, hail and damaging winds.
This is the only thing I hate about the
summer, the storms. Sunday, when we
lost power I found out why, there were
tornados. One hit in 3 Rivers, where I
used to live, one hit in Coldwater which
is only 13 miles east of me and one
hit in Battle Creek, which is north of
me. I sure say my prayers that none
will hit here. Hearing these warnings
scare me. I charged my chair yesterday,
so I am fully charged and that is one
worry I don't have.

Penny came yesterday and she lives
in Mendon, she lost power and from
what the radio said this morning she
is still without it. We talked about
her and I each getting a generator.
For her with the 4 renters she has,
it would be a good thing for her. She
has a gas stove, so she can still cook,
where me, I'm all electric so I cant do
anything.

My peonies have really opened up and
are so pretty. My geranium is not doing
good at all though and I have NO idea
what is wrong with it.. . I kinda think its
getting too much water with all the rain
we have been getting. But I don't know,
its been ages since Ive grown one...

2 of my outside kitties are really worrying
me, Dinky and Earie. They are both so
extremely skinny they look awful.. Earies
poor front leg looks awful...and him, he
wont come to me so I cant even grab him
to take him to the vet to look at his leg. I
think they are both skinny from worms. I
am having Penny get some worm pills
for them, now the trick is to get them to
eat them. These cats worry me so bad.I
havent seen Fuzz for a long time.

I'm gonna post this early as I have Kay,
from Southern Care coming today. Shes
the social worker, and very nice. Plus
with storms coming there is the chance
I can lose cable or power. I feel pretty
good today and I am most grateful, I'm
still a GORGEOUS WEEBLE too! :-)
Keep well and God Bless....

Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,

~Holiday Today~

Penny came today even though its a
holiday. She got caught in the parade
in town on her way here. I had forgotten
today was a holiday! She counted the
tomatoes on my plant and said there
are 6 of them on it. This plant was
started early which is the only reason
for it already producing tomatoes...
Birdie is having more problems with
putting stuff in his house lately. The
one he has out there in the photo is
just too big, but he wont give up and
keeps trying to get it inside.
We had a really bad storm yesterday
afternoon and lost electric about 5:30.
It came back on sometime during the
night. It is so boring with no power..No
TV or Internet or phone! AGAIN ! Its
really getting old. I called Donnie this
morning to ask about a generator. He
has a huge one that will run his whole
house. He said a fairly good one will
cost about 800 dollars. That's WAY
out of my budget, but it sure would be
nice not to worry.
My chair was down to 2 bars, which is
when I usually recharge. I was about
panicky when the power went out and
I wasn't on full power . I mapped out a
plan on what I was gonna do if it was
out for any length of time. I decided I
would get in my manual just in case
so I wouldn't have to worry about
getting caught in the middle of the room
and no way to get to my manual chair.
That would be most awful. First thing
I did this morning was charge my chair.
My peonies are starting to bloom. They
are so pretty. Penny is going to take a
few home. She said the Lilly of the
valley she took is doing really well.
Its sposta get up to 90 today. I sure hate
to turn on my air. I dread my electric bill
going up. I just want to enjoy a low gas
AND electric bill for a while. I have a
ceiling fan in all my rooms that I can
turn on if it gets too stuffy in here.

I don't know what we are gonna cook
today I'm hungry for a tuna noodle
casserole though. Sounds so good
and something different for a change.
I get tired of the same thing all the
time.

Time to post and get on with today, I
am still a GORGEOUS WEEBLE ,
keep well and God Bless.....

~Started Out Nice~

Mrs. Hummer
It started out nice this morning, all sunny
and warm, now its rainy and dark. I had
hoped it would have stayed nice all day
since its a holiday weekend, but of course,
Michigan weather. You cant go by what
they say on TV, most everyone says the
same thing, to know what the weather is,
look out the window.
sunflowers growin
My tomatoes are growing so good, I am
most pleased with them. I watch them
every day to see how much bigger they
get and I look for new ones. This is a
very healthy plant and I bet I will have
lots of tomatoes.. I cant wait... :-)
Birdie with the grass in his mouth
My sunflowers are growing too. If the cats
would quit stepping on them! But they are
growing, they will be so pretty specially
when the birds, the goldfinches, come. I
havent seen the bluejays in ages but I
sure hope they come back. The cardinals
have steadily been here and birdie of
course, is on his house every day. The
picture shows him with a piece of grass
in his mouth... I tried to take a photo of
the other bird house but it wouldn't show
the sticks sticking out of it.. :-) Mr & Mrs
hummer are here all the time too.
Tomatoes
Not lots of news today, I did fix my puter, I
just had too much stuff on it and I had to
delete lots of photos. I hate to get rid of
any, that's my problem and why I keep all
that I do, I have NO idea why... :-)

Even though its rainy I do feel pretty good,
and I am still a most GORGEOUS WEEBLE.
I'm gonna post this and fix some lunch..I
have NO idea what, but I always find some
thing... Have a great Sunday , Keep well
and God Bless...

~Puter Problems~

My computer is acting up today and I
have NO idea whats wrong. I'm doing
some deleteing of files and photos in
hopes that's the problem.

Its a rainy cool day today. I'm really
sick of all the rain. It was so cool this
morning that my furnace came on ...

Heidi my nurse, came yesterday and I
am ok..I feel pretty good except for
a tad of acheyness in my stumps which
I contribute to the rain.

Penny is here and got us all clean for
the week end. She had to go to the
store and get cat food as I didn't have
any, I used the last 2 this morning. I
give my boys a can and I give the
outside ones a can. They eat every
bit of it, where my guys always have
some left that I give to the outside
guys...Everyone showed up today,
even fuzz who I havent seen in quite
awhile, I was getting worried about
him.

I'm gonna post this and work on my
puter... I hope y'all have a good week
end. I'm still a GORGEOUS WEEBLE.
Keep well and God Bless...

~Bad Weather Coming!~


We are under a tornado watch until 7pm
tonite. Severe thunderstorms with hail and
damaging winds are predicted. There was
an alert on the radio that Ive never heard
before so they are expecting some bad
stuff. I just heard too, that the schools
here in Colon and in Nottawa are being
closed at 11 am, which is in a few minutes.
Ive never heard them do that before either.
The threat is severe.

I think after all these horrible tornados and
storms in Missouri and Minnesota and all
over that they arent taking any chances.
This stuff we are due to get is coming
right up from Missouri and Kansas.. I
have a friend lives in central Illinois
and I sure hope they are safe.

I was telling Penny that if we do get a
tornado I have no where to hide. I have
no basement. I think the safest place
for me is in the closet. The bathroom
has a window and I cant get into the
tub. My main worry is the boys, that
if we do have to get in the closet that
they will follow me.

Ive been watching the news, when my
cable works, which with this bad weather
coming again, I know it will go down again.
But those poor people in Joplin. How sad,
I feel so badly for them and I wish there
was something I could do to help them. I
saw where they dug a dog out that was
home alone. I worry about all the outside
kitties if the weather turns really bad.
This is the only thing I hate about the
summer is the tornados. Every 15
minutes on the Sturgis radio station
they come on and tell us to be on guard.
I think this might be a bad afternoon. I
hope not but...I still am gonna watch.

Penny is making some stuffed Peppers
today. They are so good. I have to make
some cabbage rolls next week for Donnie
when he comes to build my deck..He says
that's part of the deal, I have to feed him
and that's what he wants, says I make the
best ones of anyone. :-)

Time to close and keep watch. I'm still a
GORGEOUS but nervous WEEBLE.
Keep well and God Bless..

~Charter Cable is down AGAIN!~

Look closely at the Robin...

I'm gonna hurry and write this in hopes
by the time I'm done I will still have the
net. Charter went down again yesterday.
Seems this is a weekly thing. 3 days
last week and a day and half this week,
so far. I am MOST disappointed with
Charter. I had crap service sometimes
with Comcast but not near as bad as
with Charter Cable. Plus they have that
push a number crap, and the music on
hold is awful. I was on hold for 15 minutes
this morning the first time I called.. Then
about 11 I got the net and TV back but no
phone, which is my main concern. Thank
goodness I was smart enough to get that
free cell phone. I am seriously thinking
of getting the Dish.
I was looking out at the duplex birdhouse
and I had to get my nocular to see what
kind of bird was out there. Its a robin, do
you see whats wrong with it? Its only got
one leg!!! Poor thing.. It stayed out there
quite awhile then flew off. I hope it will
survive. I never thought a bird could be
an amputee...
Across the street the people over there
seem to be ok. But they have a dog in
a fenced in small area.. Ive never seen
this dog out. Why do people have a pet
to keep in a cage? Specially leaving it
out side with hardly any room at all..The
next time I see Steve outside I'm gonna
ask him, he knows them. Steves puppy
Bailey is the cutest happiest dog Ive
seen. She has the best time out side.
Runs and goes all over. As young as
she is she knows not to go out in the
road and will run all along the edge
of it. Shes a sweet puppy.
Well, I better get this posted before
Charter takes a dive again. For as
much as they charge you would think
the service would be better. Lunch
time too..left over rotini. I'm still a
GORGEOUS WEEBLE don't forget,
keep well and God Bless..

~Flowers~

As much as I like flowers I am so very
fortunate to have so many really pretty
ones. The flower bed out front with all
the Lilly of the valley and whatever that
other stuff is, I have no idea, but it sure
is pretty. The smell of the Lilly's is just
wonderful.
Down under the peonies are some little
white flowers and some yellow. I had
thought at first it was the wild straw
berries but no, its something else. The
peonies are just about ready to pop
open, the ants are all over it which is
good for them. There are 3 colors of
them planted together. When they
are open I'll call Joyce and tell her
to come over and pick some for her
self. She really likes them. I do too
but I have to leave them outside, I
cannot bring any kind of live plant
or flower in here, cuz my boy Dutch
will eat them, then puke all over. So
mom is not allowed anything live in
here but us :-) which is ok. I can still
enjoy them outside.
Penny hung the double impatients out
on the birdseed post. I can see it a lot
better , its so pretty. Then on the other
side is the pot Penny planted with the
morning glories, which are growing
very good, so are the sunflowers. I cant
wait to see the goldfinches again. I havent
seen the bluejays in quite awhile and I
miss them. The cardinals have been here.
I have been feeling pretty good and I sure
am glad. No real aches other than in my
shoulders and I think that's from pulling
myself up when I'm laying down. I think
that's one of the hardest things besides
transferring for me to do. As I get older
it will get harder and harder. That's why
I have to try to keep my strength up. I
cannot afford to get weak at all.. Always
a challenge.
Graybelle posed so pretty for me today. She
is such a sweet kittie to people, to other cats
she is such a meanie. Growls and slaps at
the others. Gimpy is the ony one that puts
up with her and follows her around until she
just is so mean he leaves. Earie was here
this morning and usually so scared, I opened
the door and he didn't run. He and Dinky are
so skinny I worry. They were both here at 6
when I got up..Tomorrow Penny comes and I
will have her get some worm medicine and
hopefully that will help them.I feel so sorry
for these poor kitties and it really breaks my
heart that they have no loving or petting. Its
sad ..How anyone could do this to them is
even sadder, I wonder how they would feel
if they were put out in the street. I cant let
them in, they arent neutered and plus I
don't think Dutch would allow it and Id have
constant cat fights on my hands. He and
LB havent been getting along lately at all
and Ive had to break them up... Kids.. :-)
Time to close and decide what I'm gonna
eat today. I'm so hungry for potato salad,
I think tomorrow that's what I will help
Penny to make. I might have a meatball
sandwich.. I had my fav yesterday :-)
so I cant have them today..Sigh.. only
once a week I give my self permission
to have them :-) They keep me the
GORGEOUS WEEBLE I am :-)
Keep well and God Bless...

~Happy Birthday Dolly~

Kelli & Dad, Donnie .. now
Kelli & Dad, then
Donnie, Me & Kelli..

Today is my Dolly's birthday. My grand daughter
Kelli Beth. She is 27 today. The first time I saw
her I said "She is such a dolly", and Ive called her
Dolly ever since. She still is. Shes a lovely woman
and all of us are so proud of her. She has proven
to be a hard worker, a great mom and a tender,
caring daughter and grand daughter.

Kelli in Papa's shoes & Skeeter

My ex, Willie, and I babysat for Kelli every day as
her mom and Dad both worked. Kellis mom was
killed when she was 4, Donnie, her dad raised
her and has done a wonderful job. Willie, her Papa,
I'm Gran, loved having this girl every day, lots of
times she spent the night.The only time Papa and
I argued was over who Kelli was spending the day
with. She loved going with her Papa, but she loved
being with me too. She was so smart and such a
happy girl we looked forward to her arriving every
morning.
Kelli & Skeeters cart

I have always had pets, cats and dogs. Kelli loved
them all.. Her favorite was my black Burmese cat
named Skeeter. He followed her around constantly
and they had the best time together. She loved all
my pets, Greta, my shepherd and Gracie my other
cat. Skeeter was her favorite though.
Kelli in Papa's shoes again & Skeeter

We had bought Kelli a small grocery cart that she
wanted. When she would play with it she would hunt
down Skeeter, pick him up and cram him into that
cart, so she could push him around. Needless to say
he was not too impressed and didn't especially like
being in there. Kelli didn't care, she wanted him in it!
Kelli & Skeeter

As she walked all over the house pushing that cart
Skeeter would try to jump out. Kelli would get very
upset and smack that cat on top the head telling him
"You STAY in this cart!".. Skeeter would hunker down
and just put up with the ride, hoping soon she would
tire of it and he could escape.
Kelli loved Greta

Kelli had gone home and I got to looking for Skeeter.
I called him and looked in his favorite napping spots
and he was no where to be found. THEN it hit me, I
remember Kelli pushing him in the cart that day and
I went in search of it. Our spare bedroom was where
we kept all of Kellis toys and she always put her toys
away before she left. 3 guesses where I found my cat?
Yup.. poor Skeeter was STILL in that cart with the most
pitiful look on his face. I went up to him and helped him
out of that cart. That cat had been in that cart most of
the afternoon. When he jumped out he hit the floor running
and headed straight to his litter box.. Poor kittie.. I made
sure after that Kelli let him out after she was done pushing
him around... :-)
Kelli & Gracie

I have many many stories of this special girl. She made 2
people very happy then and still does. Shes given us 2
great grands that I wish I knew better, but we live over an
hour apart so its kinda hard to see them a lot. Kelli and
Jorge both work every day and to plan a visit takes some
scheduling. Her Papa lives in Louisiana but makes trips
up here to see her quite often.

Its a beautiful day today and I am enjoying all my birds
and kitties. I watched today as one of the black birds
dive bombed one of the cats.. I didn't know they did that,
I know bluejays will but Ive not seen a jay in quite awhile.
The cardinals have been here and I saw a new blackbird
called a red wing blackbird..quite pretty. My tomatoes are
growing and I am anxiously waiting for them..


I feel good today and I'm so glad.. No aches or pains. I'm
still a GORGEOUS WEEBLE too! Happy weekend ...
Keep well and God Bless....

~Exciting Day~

I noticed Charter has been here to see
what was said about them. Good. Maybe
they will fix their service better. Some of
the people they have answering the phone
calls are NOT good at their jobs. Then if
you make them mad they put you on hold
for 10 minutes in the hopes you will talk
to someone with some sense. They could
improve their service a lot if they wanted
to, for some reason they don't, and its
probly cuz they don't have to call and talk
to their reps, so how would they know.
The birds outside are eating the cat food
and pooping all over out there. The black
birds and the sparrows eat it. They like
it a lot. They have birdseed out there in
the birdbath and up on the post. Its hard
to get a picture of them. The photos arent
clear but that's because its super foggy
outside.
I woke up and looked at the time on the
cable box. It said 305. It was almost day
light outside. I got scared! I thought some
thing was drastically wrong! I hurried and
got into my chair and went into the living
room, up to the front door. It was TOO
light for 3 in the morning! I was getting
really upset.... I looked at the clock on
the cable box in the livingroom and it
said 6:05... I was VERY relieved... I
guess Dutch stepped on the remote, it
was on the bed. Talk about a great jump
start to my day!! :-)
We have had much excitement this
morning. Squirrley was here and he
let Penny almost go right up to him.
Then he got scared and ran down
and over to the tree. Tigger was here
and saw the squirrel run up the tree,
the cat got him and dragged him down
and was hitting him and rolled him all
over. Just at that time Penny saw them
and ran over to the tree, scared Tigger
off and squirrley ran back up the tree.
Hes ok ...just scared...
Penny got me a germanium, red, and
its in that top photo. Its in a really nice
pot that I am thinking about getting
one more. Its really pretty. She hung
the double impatient off the board on
top the post. It looks really nice out
there.
Looky at my 2 tomatoes I have on my
plant!!! I'm so excited! I cant wait for
them to get big enough so I, well so
Penny can fry them for me!! I can
almost taste them already :-)

Well I'm gonna close and eat some
lunch...what I don't know. I think we
might have some pasta roni..that is
some good stuff..I like the angel hair
its very tasty and only takes 10 minutes
to cook it.. in the microwave too!

Hope you have a great weekend. Ours
is gonna be rainy. I'm still a GORGEOUS
WEEBLE ..keep well and God Bless...

~Charter Cable Service Is Bad~

Thanks to the great awful quality of Charter
Cable I have been with out Internet, phone
and TV since Tuesday afternoon. Good thing
I posted when I did or monday would have
been the last time I wrote. I, of course, called
them at least 3 times a day questioning what
was wrong. The people I talked to could give
me no reason as to what happened OR when
it was going to be back on...SO...
I called again yesterday, 3rd time that day,
about 5. I talked to some girl that said there
were no problems and she had NO idea what
was wrong as to why I had no service.. After
talking to that brick wall for over 10 minutes
I got mad and asked for a supervisor, named
Michael.... I explained my situation that it was
MOST dangerous for me to be with out a phone
as I was disabled. Michael then made arrangements
for a repair man to come between 5 and 9, he got
here at 8:30. I then had my cable restored, phone
and Internet..
Erie.

What gets me- since Monday night I have been telling
Charter about my need to have my phone. Not one
of the people I talked to cared, not until last night. It
sure makes me want to get a satelite..Come to find
out.. I talked to my neighbor that HAD cable, they
did some work on his and screwed MINE up! But
apparently Charter didn't realize that and I had to
do with out. I am not happy with Charter. I hope
they read this.. Anyhowway.....

My tomato plant is doing wonderful! I have flowers
which means tomatoes... My flowers Penny planted
are doing great too!. She is bringing me a germanium
I think they are so pretty...

Pennys 52 birthday was yesterday.. I offered to give
her the day off but I had lots of stuff I needed done,
so she decided to come. Last year Pennys cat had
babies and she kept a male and sassafrass was the
one she brought here for me to enjoy. Sadly, the male
was killed yesterday. She took him to the vet and he
said he thought the cat was attacked by a coyote. I'm
wondering if this is whats happening to my outside
ones. Right now there are 4 out there that are limping.
Earie came by yesterday and I almost cried he is in
such bad shape he could hardly walk at all.. He took
a few steps, no he hopped a few steps and had to
stop..His right front leg he wasn't using. I had thought
perhaps someone like the lady across the street was
abusing them. I feel so badly for these cats. They all
have one problem or another. Graybelle and Dinky
are so skinny I worry about them. At least Graybelles
neck has cleared up.

I'm waiting for a call from Heidi she is due today. I got
a email from a TV reporter that may want to do an
interview with me, telling of the outcome of smoking.
That's why I lost my legs remember... If what I say
can stop one person from this happening to them
its well worth it...I didn't know this could happen or I
would have never lit up that first ciggie. If YOU smoke..
QUIT..

Rebecca just called and she is on her way here, so
I better go make myself presentable, id hate to
scare her :-) Remember I'm still a GORGEOUS
WEEBLE, keep well and God Bless ...

~Hummers Are Back!~

Mrs. Hummer
Look whos back! Mr and Mrs. Hummer..
Penny fixed the nectar just in time. I
wasn't sure when they would return
and they may have been here for a
while but I just didn't see them.
Mrs.
They were steady drinking yesterday.
I didn't spot them till around 3 or so.
I havent seen them yet today either.
But its kinda cool out today. My heat
came on which I keep hoping I'm done
with the high gas bill, but then if I turn
on the AC I know my electric will go
up then. Cant win. :-)
Mrs.
My rotini was great. I don't know what
Penny did to the sauce yesterday, but
I think it was the best shes made, it
was that good.. The cake is super. Ive
not had carrot cake in ages. I cant even
remember the last time I had it. It was
moist and so tasty, I really am enjoying it.
Mr. the red neck tells me who is who.
I got a great phone call last night from
Kirsten. I hadnt talked to her in quite
awhile. I sent her 2 videos of toy story
2 and 3..She said that she really liked
them. I asked her what she needs that
I can send to her and she didn't name
anything specific but said she wanted
4 things in a envelope. So now we have
to find 4 things, well Penny does that
will fit in an envelope. One of those big
brown ones. Penny is good and I'm sure
she will find something for her, she has
3 granddaughters of her own, so she knows
what little girls like. Its been a long time
since Kelli was little, so ive kinda forgotten.
Donnie said Kirsten is nagging him all the
time to bring her up here, and hes been so
busy hes just not had time. He promises to
bring her soon tho, and he promises to start
on my deck too! So lets hope he gets one of
these done!...
Mr.
The pain is pretty much gone and boy, am I
glad. I still don't know why or if it was real or
phantom. I know it hurt. Travis was here
yesterday and I was trying to describe it to
him, its not easy. I know a lot of amputees,
but Ive never discussed phantoms with any
of them, that I remember. Plus if they are a
congenital one, like Sarah they don't get these
phantom pains. Ive not heard from her in a long
time, I hope she is doing ok. I should phone
her to find out. It always makes me feel better
when someone phones me to inquire how I am,
so It might help Sarah to know someone is
thinking of her.. Sarah is a triple amputee.

Well I'm gonna see what I can fix for lunch.
I have sauce left I just have to decide on
what kind of pasta..maybe angel hair. I like
that too. I'm kinda hungry but I'm tired, I got
up super early, 5:30 to be exact and I think I
will take a 5 maybe a 10 after I eat. Its a kinda
cold gloomy cloudy day, a good day for a nap.

I'm still a GORGEOUS WEEBLE.. of course,
Keep well and God Bless...

~Thank You Lord~

Blue Glories
First thing I have to say is "Thank you
Lord for taking the pain away". I have
only a few pangs every so often of pain,
but thankfully not near as bad as they
were Saturday or yesterday. I am not
sure if they were phantoms or not. I
do know they hurt and I am so glad I
feel better.
sunflowers
The sunflowers are coming up and
really doing good, as well as the glories
that are planted in the hanging pot out
by the bird stand. Theyre blue ones.
sunners by the kittie house
Penny fixed the hummer feeder up
today, so maybe they will show up
soon. Right below it, between that
and the ready to bloom peonies are
where the sunflowers are.
hummer feeder
Along side of the kittie house are
some more sun flowers. They will
look so nice by that. Plus the honey
suckle here by the back door is really
huge this year .. It will be beautiful
when it blooms...
I got the nicest surprise in the mail
today, that I did not know was being
sent, but I am very pleased! Its a
special edition of a magazine of the
Royal Wedding! Penny and I spent
almost an hour looking at the great
photos not only of the newlyweds but
of the wedding guests AND the royal
family. We enjoyed it a lot. Thank you
Raife, this was a treat.. :-)
Penny made a cake for me today and it
smells wonderful.. Its a carrot cake with
creme cheese frosting.. And she made
spaghetti sauce as well! I am gonna eat
good today!.. :-) I'm so grateful that Penny
is such a good cook.She says its really
me that is the good cook since they are
my recipes.. :-) we both are..
I was so pleased to see Graybelle .. She
is in the kittie house right now. AND guess
who else is back! ....well you see the photo..
Birdie! Hes been gone for a few days and
I worry about these animals and birds when
they don't come by for a visit. Dinky came
by while Penny was here which pleased her.
He usually is here early morning and goes
before she gets here.
Well I'm done for today and I'm gonna go
eat some of this rotini.. not spaghetti, its
a nice change. It looks so good.. Wanna
come for lunch? :-)

I'm still a GORGEOUS, pain free, almost
WEEBLE.. Keep well and God Bless..Hope
you have a good week ahead.

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...
