REMEMBERING 911
We are planning to celebrate my birthday tomorrow like we did in 2001. Of course we are planning to skip some of the events, like the twin towers not falling and the strange thing that happened here. That morning we had walked and were working on breakfast with toast being made when the radio reported the aircraft crashing into NY and as we turned on the TV the glass in our toaster oven exploded all over the floor. Strange. Never had it happen before or after.
We watched TV all morning but decided to go to Abilene for a special lunch. We got to Lytle Land and Cattle steakhouse about 2 in the afternoon. Our waiter was a student in the Marine Reserve and we discussed whether this meant we would go to war. He was expecting to be called up soon. We always wondered about him.
We started to go in today but Lou said she wasn't very hungry at noon so we will go tomorrow. It was raining and supposed to slack off tomorrow. We ate more of the leftovers from the party. A lot of good things in the fridge. Lou added some sandwich ham to the corn and I heated some of the spinach that MK left for me. We had salad and the last of the slaw. We finished off the Key Lime Pie from Mary Gaggino. Still have a lot of strawberry cake left after we froze some.
We read the Newsweek magazine article on cancer and it was discouraging. However Lou is handling the oral chemo well and will take the last pill tomorrow. She will then wait a week before taking it again. Your prayers are the best medicine she can have. We thank you for them.
She sent two manuscripts back to TTPress yesterday and started working on her memoir again. A few paragraphs and fighting the storage and backup. She finally fired her Lexar drive after it destroyed her files again. She is using one that she got from TWU. It has worked OK. She is using the new SCOOTER table from Levenger that I got her for our anniversary. It lets her sit in her chair and use the laptop.
