Louisiana Sandusky's friend in Florida, B.J. Ciagalore, finally writes her back after Louie has written to her just prior to having her back surgery. She is pleased to hear that her friend has made it through her surgery and is now on the mend.

Dear Louie~
You don't know how it gladdens my heart to hear that y'all made it through your recent back surgery! The last time I wrote to you or heard from you, you had just had blood work done and was waiting to go into the hospital. Now you are home, recuperating! I am so happy to hear that all went well; our prayers have been answered!
That is one of the sweetest, most adorable pictures of a dog I have ever seen; your "Cajun Gold" is such a little beauty! I loved the little green ribbon in her fur; she is so cute it is unreal! She looks like she has a very happy life; oh, if I could only be so lucky...LOL But I have this army of kids to raise, and I am afraid that free time is but a commodity for me. Oh, well....LOL You tell your little baby Pomeranian hello from me, and give her a hug, okay?? Thanks! I would love to see a picture of your daughter's cat, "Cajun"; I am not so sure as to what a Maine Coon is! Is it anything like a Persian cat?? That is the only cat I really am familiar with, oh, and also the Siamese; but as for breeds like Russian Blue, Maine Coon, or Tonkinese, I have no clue! I am more of a dog person! LOL
How are your children? Are they back in school already from their spring break, or haven't they had it yet? Our kids had their spring break last week, and they liked to have driven me CRAZY! I had to seperate more kids from their fights, and I think they spent more time in time out in a week than they have in all their days! You never heard such goings-on...cripes! I am sooo glad they are back in school! I was more than ready to bump a few heads! LOL I don't know how you keep order with *FIFTY* kids; I have more than enough trouble now with MY brood! LOL
How is your husband? Is he still working at Wal*Mart?? I hear the pay there is lousy; tell him to tell his bosses that he needs a raise! LOL I am happy just staying home with the kids! LOL
The weather here is stormy; we have been under storm warnings or tornado watches all day, and I am ready for this stuff to go through and get on OUT of here! It is storming now as I write, and I just hope (and pray) the power doesn't go out...Hope you didn't get any of this bad weather in Tennessee; I hate storms! I am a classic storm phobic; storms absolutely terrify me! Every time I hear the stupid weather radio sound off or hear even the mere THREAT of storms, I go ape-squat!! I have been scared of storms ever since I can remember, and here in Florida, we have some DOOZIES! It's no wonder I am so scared of storms! YIKES!
I am sitting here, typing this, and listening to the heavy rain pound on our house, and hearing the booming thunder; it sounds like it is going to knock down the house, it is so loud! (Thank GOD for surge protectors on computers, and thank GOD for generators; so if we DO lose our power, it isn't long before it snaps back on!) I will write more later once it calms down; it sounds like it is getting worse out...and oh, great! The tornado sirens are sounding; I am OUTTA' here! Will write you later; bye! Sorry so short, but you don't argue when the tornado sirens wail...that is NOT good!
~Love, your (scared) storm phobic Florida friend, Betty Jo Ciagalore. :(
