Week In Review

12 Monday Sep 2016

Mom is sure tardy with this post but as you already know, we spent all of last week going and coming from Houston. We have Scottie friends along the way so it is pleasure as well as purpose.

Barbara

This is our friend, Barbara. We love her. So Mom’s appointments went well, no sign of cancer now for 6 years and 9 months. Yes, it is counted. The peeps ate at Pappadeaux, a Cajun restaurant in Dallas and Houston, as many times as possible; Mom loves oysters on the half shell and Dad loves gumbo… so it’s a match made in heaven. Wait! They also went to Cadillac Bar and Grill after Mom’s scan; Mom said the jalapeno poppers were just that.

Indy

We have just been catching up from the trip: supervising Mom doing the wash and Dad raking the pine needles…that sort of thing. Just remember:

Have a good week, everybody. ~ Indy and Lucy

Since we had about 16 hours of driving time to Houston and back, Mom entertained herself with her phone. The Prisma photo app is just too much fun. She said the applications Transverse Line and Tokyo within the app are her favorites although it can depend on the picture being used. Enjoy ~ Indy and Lucy

Here is the picture that Mom could not post the other night. It’s Barbara, Mom and Leah. On Wednesday morning, Mom went to see the radiation oncologist, Dr. Komaki, about her test results. All were good; it has now been 6 years and 9 months. Mom had her next appointment changed to February so we can go from Feb.to Feb. and hopefully Houston will not be so miserably hot and humid during the winter. We helped Dad load the car and when Mom called us to pick her up, we were off for Dallas.

So long Houston.

Bye -Bye, Big Sam.

Hello Dallas!

Mom and Dad went for a quick bite to eat and then we all curled up to watch Big Brother and off to sleep.

We got an early start this am and soon crossed the Red River, the dividing line between Texas and Oklahoma.

We are glad to be home. Thanks again for your kind words of support for our Mom. We appreciate it. ~ Indy and Lucy

Goin’ Back to Houston, Houston Houston

After spending the night in Dallas, we got ready for Houston.

We took our morning constitutional and then we were on our way. When we arrived, Barbara, Leah, and Steve came to our hotel bringing us toys and treats, for Mom too.

Then they all went to dinner at Pappadeaux. Mom has some more pic but WordPress is not photo friendly this evening. Mom had her CT scan early this morning(it was dark when we went to the hospital) and has been sleeping most of the afternoon. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. ~ Indy and Lucy

Mom has been getting things ready for a short trip.

We are loaded up and ready to ride. Brother looking goofy, of course.

The weather is great and we arrived in Dallas quickly. We took a quick nap before DD and Diane came over to go to dinner with Mom and Dad.

We just hung out waiting for them to return, watching the people in the swimming pool. Tomorrow we are on to Houston. ~ Indy and Lucy #ontheroadagain #thestarsatnightarebigandbright #deepintheheartofTexas.

We had a little rain this week. It was so needed; our trees and grass were turning brown from lack of it and no sprinkler could revive them. Of course, Dad had just washed the car. BOL!

We told some old stories, taunted the cat, took some naps: the usual Scottie stuff.

The big thing happened this morning though. We had an…..

This is a map of the state of Oklahoma. You can see the location of the earthquake in relation to where we live in Henryetta. It was about 107 miles north and west of us.

At first we felt a slight shaking. Mom said it was like a washing machine going out of whack during the spin cycle and vibrating the floor. Then it really started shaking and rattling the dishes in the shelves. The news said it was a 5.6 and felt all the way from Texas to Missouri. We took cover.
