My new glasses came in today, 3 days earlier than promised, and I drove over to Walmart to pick them up. A few adjustments and I was out of there. You know how it is when you get a new prescription and glasses - it takes a little while to get used to the difference. By the time I drove the mile or so home I was already feeling good about them. The one thing I'm not crazy about is that although the lenses darken in the sun, my view doesn't look any darker. I think I still prefer my Serengeti sunglasses, which are fine for most times when the sun is very bright.
I haven't tried reading a book yet to see if the reading part of the lens is better. I just finished two of Patrick McManus' mystery novels and they are in my car ready to go back to the library, where I have a few more books on order.
I've done a little cleaning today but not much. I guess I'm not planning to expire tomorrow - in fact, although I'm leery about the whole thing I'm looking forward to getting the damn procedure over and done with. Never again!
I will try to post an update on Wednesday if I can. Otherwise, y'all take care and I'll be back when I'm back.

The more I research getting another dog or puppy, the more confused I become. I know I definitely want a black lab, but would prefer a young one that is finished with the chewing stage and is housebroken. I'm shocked at some of the prices...
- Lazy!
I have really been lazy today - reading most of the time. The library has a reading program each summer and you get something if you complete the reading and activity requirements. I'm not sure what the the prize is this year, but one...

The visit to the eye surgeon went so well that I'm on top of the world right now. He said my transplants look great, retinas are great, and no sign of macular degeneration to speak of - just the normal lead-up to what I will be dealing with...
- Ah, Air Conditioning!
By 5pm yesterday the house was so hot I could barely stand it. I think it was too hot for the swamp cooler to have any effect, and it was just blowing hot air. I saw that the thermostat on the wall registered 99 degrees in the living room...

Yesterday I went over to stay with grandson Liam while Meg went to the doctor. I drove through some heavy rain getting to their house, but only a mist coming back. As always I'm happy to be with my grandchildren, and worn out when I get...
