A fairly good day but pain levels high

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Having trouble sleeping but wanted to post before I go to lay down.

I called my mom this morning asking her if she could take me to a few

flea markets near here to check on a few space heaters-mainly those

ones who have a radiator filled with oil that you plug in. I wanted to

see if they had any cause my propane tank is down to 5% which is

scary. Weve had some 60 degree days where we could open windows but

its still winter and will cool back down. Plus I really do not want to

have to fill the propane again after i finish the bill from when we

moved in....just way to expsive. She said yes of course and knew my

bank acct was under 50 bucks so i was bargain hunting,

We went to the indoor flea mkt this guy runs- he gets alot of new

things from lowes they cant sell and doesnt mark up much. We fiound a

small elec space heater thatd be good for in bathroom or maybe in

kitchen just while we are cooking or whatever. She bought it for me

and said it wouldnt heat a whole room but could even be good for our

glassed in rm in spring when theres a bit of a chill.

She took me out to eat as itd been about a month since we got together

and then off to walmart. we found those oil filled radiator heaters

dennis told me about and they were on sale from 75 to 35. I was going

to try to buy one but she bought both for us which was awesome. She

knew were on verge of no heat and havent gotten my check yet (regular

disab or the big one) but I told her id pay her back and of course her

reply was keep your moneyl....but i really appreciate her helping us

while im waiting on my money and dennis waiting to hear from 3 jobs

dennis applied for.

They really work good and once i do get my big check im not only going

to pay back the loan i have from her for helping us get this house but

give her a lil extra for things like this. If she doesnt take the

extra money ill shop for her for a few things i know shed like and

need.

We turned on the radiators and they dont much electricity but work so

good....dont even need the rest of the propane what little is in

there:)

Now another really cool thing.....while i was at walmart i got a call

from bruce...dennis' friend from va beach who loves o come and visit

us as often as he can.I thought he was callin for dennis so told him i

was out n he was home but he said yeah i know. he was calling cause

he was coming down today(his wife had to wrk) but told me he and her

had decided to find new homes for their 4 ferrets and wanted to know

which 2 i would like. I got soooooooo happy and said ''lucy and

diggles'' Lucy is a sweet funny one and diggles is a chubby laid back

one like smokey was. They are both going to be traveling for work so

its hard finding sitters, the other 2 are going to her coworkers kids

and i think some of it is too that they know i love ferrets, love

these 2 and was so sad to put smokey to sleep.

so they came and get along so well with my 'bandit' and are already

cuddling together in the hammock. ill try to get a pic tomorrow to

show you.

so besides the high pain in knee today was a good day and i think im

going to try to get some sleeep....ill be on tomorrow but wantd to

share some news with you all....I hope u all have a good wknd and are

doing ok. im so thankful to my mom helping me get these great heaters

and of course my new babies!!!!!

have a good wknd everyone:)

,

You must be so happy to have your new babies! What a stroke of luck for you.

Be careful how much you use the oil based heaters. Our electricity bill went

sky high when I got one for my son and he was using it all the time. It really

drains the electric. Ben's room is right over the garage, so he is very cold

all winter. We need to insulate that room or something.

Hope your knee feeling better today. My stomach has been aching since I got up

and it's really pissing me off! I was going to take my middle son shopping for

new clothes this afternoon, but I just don't feel up to it. This chronic pain

is really just a pain in my ass! (Sorry for my French but some days I feel like

screaming WHY WON'T THIS GO AWAY?????
