Lou felt pretty good driving back from FW Wednesday. Thursday we went to the dentist in the morning. In the afternoon, I dropped some trash on the rug and while I was taking it out to the garbage, Lou got out the vacuum cleaner and injured her back. It was bad Friday. Saturday we drove to Dallas for Lou to participate in electing new members into Texas Institute of Letters at their board meeting.
I had finished COME SUNDOWN and started the new book that my son gave me for Christmas, MY FATHER, MY PRESIDENT by Doro Bush Koch, George W.'s sister. The Forward is by her mother, Barbara Bush, and I am enjoying learning more about George H. W. He went to Odessa after graduating from Yale in a 1947 Studebaker. Our first car was a 1950 Studebaker Champion with the jet nose. We moved to Odessa about the time they moved back from California to Midland after being transferred from Odessa. Back in Midland he left the supply company where he started as a clerk and formed a production company that he later extended into an offshore drilling company named Zapata.
We came back Saturday. Sunday Lou woke with a really painful back and stayed home from church. Monday it was really bad so we called Dr. Siadati's office and after a day made an appointment for noon Friday. He wants to take some Xrays to see if there are more disk problems and will then decide if kyphoplasty will cure the problem. Lou has been taking pain medicine to contain the pain. Today Lou wrote the Cowgirl Hall of Fame and opted out of her book signing scheduled for Saturday. She was supposed to participate with the other contributors to the book Texas Women on the Cattle Trails.
Due to the nice warm weather and a little moisture in the ground, I planted some winter peas for the deer, fertilized with cottonseed meal and cornmeal and today planted some pansies for a little color this month. In the office I finally got started on bookkeeping update to work on my taxes.
I should be reporting on all the books that Lou is reading for the new author Spur award. She has found several that she likes. She is trying to finish that project early.
