Lois was tired today. She camped out most of the day in the family room, of course she had the phone nearby along with a People magazine her sister gave her with a picture of Taylor Hicks on the cover. She likes Taylor Hicks, I think because he reminds her of me - you know, all that gray hair.
My sister, Jo; Brooke, James and kids visited Lois today while I got the tree-man to finally remove the tree off the neighbor's deck, and the main pump to the pool replaced. It's been a costly day. I went to get a hair-cut and my son-in-law snuck in to visit Lois (with Brooke and kids) and he didn't mow the lawn while he was here. Doggone it, I mowed it before he got here, earlier in the day. Next time, James.
Lois took a shower a few minutes ago. The doctor told her she could get her wounds wet today in the shower. I 'm not sure but it seems to me when I was a kid and had three stitches in my eyebrow I couldn't get it wet for like two or three years. Makes me think, with all these changes/advancements in medical treatment that someday we'll get surgery and not even know it happened.
She got out of the shower and complained about not losing any weight. Before surgery I told her she would probably lose a good ten pounds . . . ahem.
We're going to settle down in the family room for some tv this evening and call it a day.
Once again, thanks so much for all the "cards and letters."
Jim

Jim, Good to hear from you daily. I remember when your Mom first went to the great Northwest news came by wagon train. Love to Lois. Bet the g-kids cheered her day. Aunt Bill
Lois & Jim, I'm going to try this one more time to prove I'm not completely out of date!! Amazing technology, at least Lois can put her cell phone numbers in - I don't even do that. So glad Lois is doing well, she sounded like her old self on the phone yesterday:) I didn't see an update on the blog for yesterday~~so it's a good thing I called. Be good to her and wait on her hand & foot and make her feel like a "Queen"!!
Love, Lorena & George
