I hope all of my Blogger friends had a wonderful
Easter weekend!
Bulldog Man and I spent Saturday and part of Sunday
down south in Texas at my parents’ place.
Since Mom is recovering from a foot infection and MRSA, and Dad is in
the process of fighting cancer, we decided to go down and work on their
property a bit. We cleaned up branches,
cut down dead trees, pruned several trees, stacked wood and piled debris for
bulk pickup. The visit was nice; I was
able to see that my Dad is finally able to keep food down, and has put on a
little weight. In fact, Dad insisted on going out to eat as
a family on Saturday evening. He was
craving BBQ Beef Ribs, since he was able to keep food down, and had a craving;
we were not going to deprive him his request for ribs. We piled into two vehicles, and drove into
Fort Worth to a place called Riscky’s BBQ.
Dad had 3 ribs, and some green beans,
all he could stomach at the time. He was
totally satisfied, you could tell by the smile on his face. Exhausted because this was a major outing for
him, we took him home and made sure he was comfortable in his lounge chair in
the family room to rest and watch a little television.
The all you can eat beef ribs are to die for at
Riscky’s, the wait staff was amazing, and Bulldog Man and I would highly
recommend this restaurant to anyone in the Fort Worth area of Texas.
Our overall visit down south was very productive,
and special for me to see my Dad doing better, gaining strength to tackle the
next step of his cancer recovery, chemotherapy.
