Two days' worth


I went to the two exercises classes Monday morning. I can find it in my heart to hope that the second one ends soon (when the grant to pay for the instructors runs out), or at least changes to a Tuesday/Thursday class. We had bridge in the afternoon, and then the ballgame. Made for a long day.

We went to the first Lady Mocs basketball game Monday night - an exhibition game with Lee University (Cleveland, TN). Our gals were awful, and just barely won (46-44). They only hit 7 out of 20 free throws. Pitiful. We play Alabama on Friday, so the new coach has a lot to do in the next few days.

There was almost as much packed into this morning as in Monday. I went to one grocery store and got the country ham for Thanksgiving. I will only get a Clifty Farm ham (I've tried other brands and it's just not the same), and a friend told me about a sale at BI-LO for $1.99/pound. I went there to get it - then saw them at WalMart later for $2.48/pound. That made it even better.

However, I also had my 6-months appointment with the optometrist. And there was another "uh-oh!" That's two for this fall. There some loss in vision in my left (good) eye. He found it's due to a secondary cataract that has formed in the tissue left after the first cataract operation 8-10 years ago. He said all they have to do is laser a few spots and it's taken care of. I certainly hope so. Anyhow, that's set for 4 December, and the followup appointment is already set, too. Whew! that was fast.

I got home ready for a little bit of lunch and a nap. The regular Tuesday night TV finished off the day. I think I’ll rest up for the remainder of the week.

My eye doctor warned me about possible loss after the cataract operation. But he said the same thing, it's easily lasered out.

We have trusted this eye service for years (includes surgeons and other specialists), and I finally got a referral for my husband for the same place.

I'd like to see the photo of Lady Mocs basketball game.

I've just discovered that thecataract on my "bad" eye has completely wiped out usable viion in that eye. Must decide if I want to go through the 3 operations it will take to repair it dueto congenital malformation. Scary.
