Tomorrow I will be having what I hope is my last eye surgery. I have scar tissue from radiation and several previous eye surgeries. It causes my lid to have a significant droop, reducing my field of vision. It is covered by insurance because it was caused by radiation and involves the visual field cut. I have to have the procedure done in the hospital rather than the day surgery center because of my latex allergy. It is still day surgery. I have to be at the hospital at 6:30 a.m. That is really early now that I am retired! Surgery is at 8:30 a.m. and is scheduled to take 2 hours! This rather surprised me, I hadn't expected it to take that long. I hope I don't have as much bruising as I usually get because I am going to a scrapbook retreat for 3 days this weekend.
The retreat is at a place in Santiago, MN. The house is set up as a crafting retreat center, used mostly by scrapbookers and quilters. It looks very nice, with 34 acres of scenic land. Hopefully it won't rain the entire weekend so I can take a few walking breaks throughout the weekend.
My daughter and her family are on vacation in Orlando, FL. This is their first vacation in 2 or 3 years. They drove from Wisconsin so they could visit Emily's birth family in Birmingham, Alabama. They had a good weekend visit with family and after a day of rest yesterday are spending today at Sea World. Katie is 4 y.o. so the perfect age for an Orlando vacation.
My older grandson is anxiously awaiting the arrival of his baby brother, who is due any day. Sondros is so excited about finally having a sibling.
My baby grandson stays busy getting new teeth and refining his walking skills. He is so darn cute. It's hard to believe he's almost a year old. His birthday will see family coming from Colombia.
Happy spring to everyone!!
