ANOTHER VERY ACTIVE DAY and I didn't feel the need to take a nap which is amazing. Either I'm running on adrenaline or actually feeling much better. Answered prayers and a word of thanks to you who have prayed for me. I thank you so much. THANK you.
On Tuesday morning another medical appointment to attend. One week check-up for cataract surgery number two. I seem to be healing nicely. The eye drops sting to high heaven and I visited with the doctor about this. Right eye is given one drop a day this week and the left eye is given three a day. I added lubricating eye drops.
After the eye drop goes into the eye, I am to keep the eye closed for at least a minute or two. No blinking. Wait 10 minutes before applying second type of eye drop. Wait 10 minutes and add preservative free lubricant eye drops. Lots of drops. I will rejoice when drops are finished. REJOICE!
I have 20/20 vision in both eyes, but focusing up close and personal is challenging. I have to wear reading glasses. I pray to adjust. I have worn glasses since I was a third grader. Not having to wear glasses all the time is a miracle. I might start wearing some eye make-up later?
After finishing the appointment, car was fueled and tires aired up.
Drove to restaurant for LUNCH. Quiet meal in a nice environment.
We have to find Hubby some better shoes to wear as his daily faithfuls have broken down so we went to BROWN's SHOE FIT and purchased some BROOKS with velcro straps. Expensive, but he needs better shoes. He was instructed by a surgeon who believes this will help make his foot feel better.
Stopped at a gift store purchasing a decorative tea towel for my Mom.
Star Bucks beverages.
Went to Doctor's office so Hubby could make another appointment about his feet.
Drove over to Dollar Tree for Birthday cards and ETERNAL WATER.
Target.
Walgreens.
Tractor Supply Company. Looking for a utility wagon.
Drove to HOME TOWN to pick up mail.
HOME.
Salad Supper.
Hubby and I had a heart to heart talk about just about everything under the sun. Politics, religion, friends, marriage, children, grandchildren, health, traveling, weather.
Blogging time.
Soon Bedtime.
Wednesday looks to be another busy day. Babysitting and Hubby is getting a haircut. I need to make a run to the store for a few items.
My turn for getting my hair shampooed at the Beauty Shoppe comes later in the week. Having a stylist shampoo it will be helpful and relaxing. We don't have a shower so I wash my hair at the kitchen sink. During the recovery period for cataract surgery, I was not to lean over, so I have gone without shampooing my head for a while. I believe I will be relieved to have it shampooed. I won't have to go so long in between shampoos next week as I can now lean over the kitchen sink.
I have got to get some laundry done. Have to. A few bills need written out and some correspondences made.
How quickly the week is passing. I'd like to sit still and listen to the wind blow and forget about it. I do believe I need some down time.
While out and about running chores, I find some comfort in seeing the surrounding trees, bushes and flowers taking on greenery and color. The Prairie is coming to LIFE. Tis lovely. Truly. I have been giving it a great deal of thought about the front flowerbeds. White Rose bushes come to mind.
God Bless,
