Knees

Great news!! Isabella Sofia is doing fine!!!! She is one scrappy little girl, making her own blood platelets now and doing very well, thank you!

Not so great am I, as I pulled the side ligaments in my right knee unloading hay one evening. For about ten days, I have been side-lined to crippling around, barely able to walk the first few days. Painful, too, but getting better every day. Old knees take a while to heal... not like when I was young and would run the mile from my house by the entrance to Cameron Park to the horse stables in the Park without even drawing a deep breath.

Ah, the joys of youth! I have such wonderful memories of those times! In the library at school the other day, I came across a reference book by James Jesek, a 1961 graduate of Waco High School. It was "A Pictoral History of Waco", and it was full of photos of Old Waco people, places, and things. I really enjoyed looking at it. It refreshed my memory of many places and things I knew, but had forgotten I knew. It was a real trip down Memory Lane.

 I plan to write about some of the photos in a future blog, to share the memories. Going to a little get-together tonite ..some of the Waco High School classmates (1964) and I go out to eat once a month, to celebrate that month's birthdays of classmates and friends. Always lots of fun!
