We visit my sister and an old friend

Jen and I returned home Thursday night from two days in the Dallas area, visiting my sister, Jenny Louise  (Bit) and a long-time friend, Ken Dooley.  Both celebrated birthdays this month -- Ken was 90; Bit was 83.


Ken, who directed the choir of Christ United Methodist Church for 18 years, is singing in the choir of  a Presbyterian Church.  He stays busy pursuing such activities as studying languages.  We  had lunch at his favorite restaurant, which offers a wide selection of vegetables.

Thursday we had  a long visit with Bit, who has so many medical appointments we were fortunate to catch her Thursday, a rare day she was free.  As we age we all have many aches and pains, some more limiting than others.  Bit has to have treatments for macular degeneration and  glaucoma..

We had not seen each other in quite a while so we spent hours swapping news of both families and of our other siblings.
