Wide Eyed

Here I sit with my eyes dialated squinting due to light.  Mine never go back to normal in the time they tell you. 

 I am bummed because due to my eye exam and vision field test, I need to go ahead and have eye surgery before getting new glasses.

So no new frames for me for awhile.

Annual Eye Exam

Time for my eye exam tomorrow. I feel like I live at the optomitrist as I have to have quarterly check to monitor me for glacoma. Caught high pressure with a minute bit of nerve damage in one eye years ago and have controlled it since.

 I know I am going to be up for some cateract surgery in one eye in the future. I am hoping to be able to get new script and new glasses for one more year at least. I have not got new glasses in 2 years, but this time I know my vision has changed quite a bit. For some reason I have it in my head when it is time for the surgery I want to do it in the winter....since that season is good for not much else. I always plan bad stuff for then.

I dread picking out new glasses. It takes me so long to decide on the frames. And a big hit on the checkbook as I get progressive lenses, turn dark in sun, and for some reason I must have good taste in frames because the ones I like are always more than I would like.

 So I am off to dreamland so I can go frame hunting tomorrow.

Birds and Squirrels

The black birds and squirrels are taking over. Was trying to get the black birds in flight, and got a tree with a squirrel in it.

Charlie and Dallas

Think Charlie and Dallas are bored with the crummy weather. Had a few nice days of playing outside when they wanted.

WHOOPS, WHEN DID 2011 GET HERE?

The Fall of 2010 came and went with a holiday season of food, fun, and family. Just reading blogs and looked at mine and realized I am into March already. Jan, Feb, and March usually suck anyhow. This year in Jan we had the biggest snow storm in years, and it has been rain and snow ever since. Finally the past 2 weeks we have had some days in the 70's.. Ahhh Spring is really on the way.
My Mom who has been in and out of hospitals, Residential Facilities, and Nursing home since November fighting her Congestive Heart Failure finally came home Friday. Is happy to be back in her own comfy chair and bed. Is getting along well taking care of hereself. The Home Health Nurse will come tomorrow and set up a schedule to monitor her for awhile to make sure her vitals signs are ok. Will be hoping this goes well and she can be home awhile now.
Perhaps this will be a good Spring and Summer. Today I bought some pizza's from great grand son for base ball funding. We got our invitation to Bryant and Rachels wedding coming in May. Now I have to find something to wear. Jim's sister and brother in law are supposed to come visit in April. So I am having all kinds of things to be anticipating.
I was just thinking earlier today that I had better start looking for a swim suit because it will be time for Water Aorobics the end of May. Better planning this year, pool opened and I did not have a suit yet.

I at least have a start on 2011 blogging....even if I just get back and update every few months.
I have at least begun.
