Today has been a routine day. Amy and I have been taking care of Pat and we have also doing chores around the house. We cooked dinner today. We had a beef roast with all of the trimmings. We all three enjoyed our dinner. We even had some left to eat later.
Amy has just left to embalm a body or two. One of her mortician friends called and asked her to come help with the bodies. She was glad to have a chance to work again in her profession. She was excited when she left. She has missed not being able to work.

I made a quick trip to Wynne this morning. I needed to go to pickup our mail, mow the yard, and pick up a few items that we need.
I visited with the neighbors and did my chores and returned to Memphis.
I will be in Wynne next week. I have a couple of meetings I need to attend and the city council meets Tuesday night. I also need to report on the council meeting on KWYN Wednesday morning.
Pat has decided to stay in Memphis through the 20th. She has a doctors appointment on that day and we will decide what course of action to take in relation to her recovery. Hopefully we will be able to return to Wynne after the doctors appointment.
Continue to keep us in your prayers.

Pat's surgery went well. We are at Amy' home in Memphis. We will make a decision about what to do about going home in a day or two.
Pat has to lie down with her foot and leg elevated for at least ten more days. She has an appointment with her surgeon in ten days. He will evaluate her case at that time and give us instructions.
Please continue to keep us in your prayers.

Today has been nothing out of the regular routine. Amy and I have been taking care of Pat.
She has surgery tomorrow on her broken leg.
In between taking care of Oscar and Pat I have been working in Amy's yard. This afternoon Pat told Amy that if we stayed much longer she would not have any grass left in her yard.
I talked to my brother this afternoon for and update on my mother. She had surgery on her back this afternoon. He said everything went well and the doctor was pleased with the work he was able to complete. (My mother is almost 91 years old.)
I talked with all of the department heads and Theda today. Everything is going smooth in the City of Wynne. Jerry and I did discuss a change that we will have to undertake in the sanitation department. Tuesday's route has to be changed a little so the men can complete the route in a normal day. We discussed the ways to achieve this and decided on a plan. We will make the changes in a week or two. We will notify all of the families that are going to be changed.

Pat saw a doctor yesterday afternoon. He confirmed that she had broken two bones and one of them twice. He will perform surgery early Friday morning. He will put in three screws and one plate. He said that the surgery should take about one hour. We have to wait for the swelling to go down before the surgery can be performed.
We are staying at Amy's in Memphis. Amy and I are taking good care of Pat.
Keep us in your prayers.

This has not been a good weekend. Pat and I visited Amy on Saturday for the weekend. Pat had to visit a doctor on Monday. She had planned to stay over Sunday night and the come home after her appointment. I had planned to go home Sunday afternoon.
THE SITUATION CHANGED QUICKLY---------
Saturday afternoon we planned to go for a quick ride around town. As Pat was getting in the truck she fell and broke both bones in her left leg. She broke one of the bones twice. We went to the emergency room at Methodist Hospital. We spent about 6 hours at the ER. The placed a temporary cast on and sent us home. They told us that she would need to see a doctor to do surgery and set the leg. They said that it would probably be several days before surgery would be possible because of the swelling. At this time Pat in talking with the doctors office trying to set up an appointment to take care of the problem. More information later.
