Place: Overland Park, KS Comments: Sending good thoughts for continued healing for Don. This has been quite an ordeal! Stay safe and well, dear ‘66ers. Love to all. - Carol
Place: Richardson Comments: Today @2:45 we had another visit with Don's surgeon. Finally, after 12 weeks with several different casts on his left arm . . . it came off!! Dr. wanted him to have a brace but, as some of you have experienced, Medicare won't allow the Dr to give you one. Huh?? I asked, can we buy it from you. No, Medicare won't allow that either. He wrote a prescription and we headed out to Preston & Campbell Daugherty's Pharmacy. they didn't have the right one. Sent us to Preston & Royal and they had it. Very nice and did good job fitting it correctly. $32. It was 4:40 by that time & we headed home in the bumper to bumper traffic. Now I've got to get my material ready for the HOA Board meeting at 7pm. We've been doing it via conference call the last 2 months & probably a few months more. Hopefully Don will have a decent night tonight without that heavy cast. Later . . .
Place: Kerrville Comments: Well Don there are quite a few people that probably made comments on FB that cannot be repeated. Got a lot of insulting cards at a surprise luncheon with about 6 “friends” here in Kerrville. Do not worry I have it written down. hope Toni and Bruce had a great anniversary. Remember it well - in fact I have a picture of the four of us on my desk here.
Place: LV, TX Comments: H a p p y 15th A n n i v e r s a r y to Toni Rogers & Bruce Jones, for July 18th!
Place: LV, TX Comments: H a p p y B i r t h d a y wishes go out to Annette Fortson Franjie for July 18th!
Place: LV, TX Comments: Coupla catch-up wishes for yesterday, but first, a follow-up for Shortcake: I sorta figured that would draw a 'pay-back' response. Hopefully, you weren't too hard on Bobby or at least, he saw it coming. Guess I'll get mine when we have our next mini - unless you know when my next b'day is and post something appropriate. ![]() I have notes about birthdays & anniversaries going back many years, but most of them came from classmates. Pretty sure you weren't the source of this one. If it wasn't Bobby, I might've picked it up from someone else who left a g/b note on your b'day. Now, who else would do something like that?
Place: North Richland Hills Comments: I've been calling it "COVID Prison"!
Place: Hot & Sunny in Richardson Comments: Another boring stay-at-home week has gone by and yet we're still deep into the relentless *&@%$^% coronavirus! I'm bored and want to see my family & friends so bad. Please God, kill this virus and help us restore our country. Y'all stay safe and let's all look forward to the day we can get together and celebrate being together once again!!!
Place: Kerrville Comments: Not sure if I should say thank you or I will get even with you and Bobby. Got a lot of really insulting(funny) cards about fire though. Thanks for the good wishes.. we are home and staying safe.
Place: LV, TX Comments: Missed one yesterday ... H a p p y B i r t h d a y wishes go out to Karen 'Shortcake' Reynolds Louton for July 11th! Shortcake – Hope this finds you kicked back and taking it easy this weekend. Do folks at the fire dept still refer to lighting the candles on your b'day cake as a 'controlled burn'? There was something about it in my notes, but not sure about the origin (Bobby?). Anyway, best wishes for many more - 'lit-up' or otherwise!
Place: Richardson Comments: This afternoon was our visit to Don's surgeon. Unfortunately, cast didn't come off!! Come back in 2 more wks. Can't begin to tell you how disappointed he was! ![]() So far it's 10 wks with a cast & now 2 more. If the shattered bones have grown back well enough in 2 wks . . . then Dr. will remove cast and put him in a removable hard cast with velcro straps so he can at least take it off to shower. Now we use long plastic sleeves from our morning newspaper & rubber bands. Oh my, is it almost Fall yet . . . !!!!
Place: Kerrville Comments: Really glad to see Don is doing better. Maybe we should ground him from riding bikes for awhile! I know with him doing better you will be also SNL! Bobby fell from a ladder last week so he is grounded from climbing ladders. Not a lot going on in Kerrville. Mostly just staying in. Although we did go to James Avery yesterday. Our group was the only ones in there for awhile. Then to eat Mexican food. Everyplace here requires a mask until time to eat. Everyone stay safe and 6 ft. Apart
Place: Richardson Comments: Good morning SOCites! It just seemed right to go forward a few more days with the patriotic theme. Don't know about the rest of you but, it's seems that one day morphs into the next. Most mornings I have to look at the top of the newspaper page to confirm what day it is. Don and I are going by " best practices", staying in, don't leave house without mask, not eating inside any restaurant, etc. But I'm so tired of it and very worried about our country. How and when will we recover? God Bless this Nation and all within it.
Place: LV, TX Comments: H a p p y 51st A n n i v e r s a r y to Sam & Sarah Smith, married on July 3rd, 1969!
Place: LV, TX Comments: Hope y'all will please excuse my tardiness while I catch-up on some missed b'day wishes - I see one was already mentioned ... H a p p y B i r t h d a y wishes go out to Sandy McGee & Richard Nance for June 26th, and Dale Smiley & Don Broughton for June 30th! Sandy, Richard, Dale & Don - We hope you're all doing well and celebrating another year with the rest of us 'senior survivalists'. Best wishes for many more, gents! |
