Today was a Red (Pink) letter day for Lou. She spoke to the Pink Bag luncheon at TCU in Fort Worth to a group of mostly women who are working against cancer. She reviewed the book that she edited with two others WRITING ON THE WIND: STORIES BY WEST TEXAS WOMEN. The format was unusual for her. Instead of her usual review, she answered questions about the book. It was well received and most of the women bought a copy for her to sign.

She started the morning by walking to the creek to meet me coming back from my 2 miles. She was puffing some but doing much better than Monday. We skipped Tuesday because it still looked like rain. We got .75" during the early morning hours before we got up.

After the luncheon we went to Borders to spend the gift cards from our son's family. I bought O'Reilly's CULTURE WARRIOR and a big book labeled CONAN to give to the Cross Plains Library. Lou bought a book by a woman author and I don't know the title. We then drove by our son's house in Weatherford where he was still fighting a flu bug. Lou didn't get out of the car and stayed well clear of him. He is getting better and working from home using his laptop. He has been out two days.

Speaking of being out, our TV has been gone since Sunday when we tried to watch the game and the receiver box failed. UPS delivered a replacement today and I will install it tomorrow. We haven't missed it. We listen to the news on the radio some and have talked about not turning TV back on until after the election in November. We have done quite a bit of reading. I had magazines stacked by my chair for weeks. Got them whittled down. Now back to some books.
