Hello & Welcome To Our House

Good Morning Everyone,

  We have finally gotten back into some milder temps after all that arctic cold! I think I crossed the Mason-Dixon Line only one time and that was a summer. If I had to live up north with you good people...I would not make it...It is downright cold up there! My bones were actually hurting!! Well, enough of that...
   I suppose the first thing I want to tell you about is my doctors appointment. Don't get all angry with me cause ya'll I want you to know I have been in some pain! It all started... read  (Here)
  This happened back then and the ER doc I saw said it was just a sprain. Well, hello...does this look like 'just a sprain'?

 My little Miss Kitty is devastated and blames herself for my misery. Poor thing, she still hides under the bed when she sees me hobbling about on my cane. 

  Fortunate for me I didn't have to get a cast, just a brace and pain med, and I was put on vitamins and calcium. Because I'm diabetic and heal slower it will be 3 to 4 months before I'm able to be without this brace. 

 Doc was saying, I can forget about cooking Thanksgiving dinner...little did he know...December is coming...??? 
 That, my friends, is a whole new post so I'll be back to tell you the news...be sure to come on back to see what else is happening in The Thomas House... Have a Good Saturday!

Warm Wishes,
Loretta and the gang...

We'll be Back Saturday

Good Evening Friends,

I am having doctor visits and appointments the next few days, so the gang and I will be back on Saturday.

Hope you have a Marvelous Evening with Family...
Warm Regards,
Loretta

Arctic Front Hitting Us Today

It has been a number of years since we've experienced an Arctic Front dipping down on us!

  

When I checked the weather channel  their map showed a numbed of  Southern states that will be affected. 

Blustery wind blows so hard there are limbs falling on the back part of the property. It is howling around the house and scratching at the windows trying to get through! Rain has started to blow with it. Leaves are like snow falling and have blanketed the ground. 

  James called a minute ago and said wind is so high he had to pull on the shoulder of the road because it was hard to handle his load. One eighteen-wheeler had blown over and lost its load!
  
 Temps are sturdy falling and they are saying we will be in the lower 20's tonight...other places may see the high teens.
If it continues to rain, ice will complicate roads and traffic.
  
 I have gotten the house warm and toasty and ready for the night. Amanda and Lovey are snug in their crates and will not come out. They must have an idea about the impending weather. Miss Kitty is window watching...watching all the leaves fall. She seems to be in a trance. Oh, what is going through her mind as she watches them?
  
  I think I will go in and start a big pot of stick-to-your-ribs soup! It sure will be great keeping warm inside from this cold weather! 
  
  Hope things are going okay for all of you and you are keeping warm!
  We appreciate your stopping by to visit and wish you could stay a bit longer. Come on back and spend some more time with us...we'll make a fire in the fireplace for you to sit a spell keep warm and rock with a cup of tea!!

Warmest Regards,
Loretta & Family
