January Almost Gone
Yesterday was the second post op appointment with Dr. Rohr for the right eye. The outcome was 20/20 with small exceptions on distance and tiny print. The tiny business may be taken care of by 2.5+ reading glasses from the drugstore. But if that doesn’t do it I’m allowed a pair of glasses paid by insurance because of the surgery. I said I would try the reading glasses first and if by my next appointment I’m not happy I’ll get the glasses made.
Speaking of eyes.
If I don’t get Brandy to the Doggy Depot soon she will be running into walls. She had a couple of what my Mom used rats in her tail and under one ear. Combing them out was next to impossible so I cut them out. Then she decided that I wasn’t going to comb anything and I decided I’ll pay extra and have her groomed rather than to look like a victim of a cat fight.
Yesterday while I was out I found basil, mint, curly parsley, and chives plants. This time I let Jay re pot them.
And so the herb window garden grows ( we hope)!
I also finished Mitch Albom’s latest book ‘For One More Day’.
Another book that makes you stop and think did I or in some cases do I pay attention to those I love or just take them for granted. Maybe it’s my age but this theme is floating through my mind more often. It doesn’t take a moment to show affection to another being and you and I certainly have that amount of time to spend!
Now the reason for catching up on the reading.
Yep she is still coming down. Jay plowed the driveway again Sunday and it has snowed only lightly but every day since. Right now it is fine flakes that look more like a fog or a mist. The sun will sometimes peek through in the morning and the late afternoon but during the day it hides in the clouds making things gray and cold looking. I heard on the radio yesterday that Spring is only 50 some days away. Wow too bad old man winter doesn’t pack his bags and be gone by then but no such luck for us, Kids!
Remember be happy, keep warm, and I’ll add spend some time spreading some love! That you can afford!!
