     Louisiana writes in her journal before leaving to go to her doctor's appointment.

September 26, 2006, 10:13 a.m., D.S.T.~

Dear Journal~

I am still feeling pretty horrid today; I am home from work, and I have a doctor's appointment at 1:00 this afternoon, to see if Dr. Harlowe can do anything for me regarding this virus I have managed to pick up. I don't know where I picked up this virus, but it has left me in a bad way; still am paying homage to the porcelain god, and I feel weak and drained.

So far, Bill and the kids have managed not to get the virus; I pray with all my heart  that this  continues. The last thing I need is them getting it, especially Johnny, Jodie, Vlademir, and Todd, all, of whom aren't that strong anyway; any little virus they get  can be serious business for them. This is why I have to particularly watch them like a mama hen!

My friends Frank Hammer and his fiance, Katrina (Kat) Delchamps, who went on the cruise with me, called; they knew I wasn't feeling my best, so they called me to see how I was feeling. That was nice of them!

 Frank and Kat are glad to be back home, but Kat has been crying; she did not want to leave Alaska! Frank said that later a friend of his is going to sell him a Norwegian Forest cat (kitten, actually; it is only eight weeks old or so) for $200, which is dirt cheap for a pure bred animal. That will be good for Katrina; she can use some cheering up in her life!

The last year of her life has been particularly hard for her: the hurricane, her losing just about everything she owned as a result of the hurricane, and then the accident that left her permanently paralyzed and depending on a wheelchair (or crutches) for mobility--poor Katrina; she sounds like my friend Audrey, who has had piles of problems herself!

I am glad to be home, and my dog, "Cajun Gold", went into convulsions of joy upon seeing me. She stood up on her hind legs and was dancing to beat the band, barking joyfully. She was such a happy baby! She acted like I was gone for a year instead of two weeks! LOL Silly baby!

The kids went back to school today, so I am sure that they are very popular today. I am sure their friends  want to know all about their Alaskan cruise. The only one that is home with me is Arjun, and Bill is dealing with him because of my beings sick.

Well, I am going to go now; I have to get ready for my doctor's appointment. I will let you know what he said. Hopefully it is nothing serious! Take care, dear journal, and God bless!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend, Louie May. :(

Sure hope all will be well for poor Louie. Not nice, these stomach bugs. The doctor will soon put her right, then she look back at the cruise with only fond memories. The kids would have lots to share at school!

God Bless
Love, Lena
