 Hopping back into the game! I had my second cataract surgery on Thursday (the 27th). Once again my post-op checkup went well. She said I was showing off, ha ha. I went straight to Walmart and bought some reading glasses. She said it was okay to go ahead and do that. I now have four pairs strewn about the house and car. I  may also get a pair of prescription glasses with bifocals. We'll see if my insurance covers that since the cataract surgery doesn't correct my close vision. In fact, it makes it so you can't see things no matter how close you hold them. So you have to use readers. It can be inconvenient having to grab readers every five minutes, but better than my old eye sight!

Time for random photos from my memory card!

The girls are in charge of making sure the horses have enough water. Just one of their chores.

This is a little something I came across on the shoulder of the road as I was walking. It must have rolled out of the back of someone's truck?
Here are a bunch of the CRRR (Continuous Random Round Robin) cards I've sent out. These are what we in the biz call Starter Cards. This is the first layer which will be added to by two other players. I'll eventually get one of them back as a finished card. Some of these I may have shown before. I didn't go back and check previous posts. :)







Sights along my walk day before yesterday. I wish I'd had a camera along yesterday. I saw a heron and a cormorant perched in trees above the little river I cross over.



Micah and I are taking the kids to the dentist today. It's about an hour and a half drive, so I'd better be getting ready to go. 

Thanks for stopping by! I'll try to visit all of you later today.

Shalom and love to all!

  1. It's great to have both eye surgeries over and done with, isn't it. I have to go every 6 months and have my eyes checked by the doctor that did my surgeries. Tomorrow's the first appointment ( where the assistant puts the drops in etc..) then next Monday I see the doctor himself. The waiting room has in the past been very crowded and I'm wondering what precautions will be in effect because of Covid.

  2. I'm glad your second surgery went well! Looks lovely up there, but that is a LONG way to go to the dentist! One of the trade-offs, I guess, for the joy of a country life :)

    1. Micah takes them to a pediatric dentist who also does special needs children. It takes a brave person to do that job! LOL Lots of screaming and wailing going on. My dentist is just 15 miles away.

  3. Happy to see you again here in your fine blogpost! So fine, that you had now two welldone surgerys. I can imagine, a big stone fell from your heart!

    I see such fine warm weather in your region. Maybe too dry - - I love the photo with the girls looking after the water for the horses, and the two sweet cats nearby! Its an adventure to see your grandchildren grow. Now its the time for aminals to enrich the family with more and more blessings. Congratulation allround!

  4. I'm glad you are recovering so well! I know what you mean about grabbing glasses every two seconds. When I wear my contacts, I have to have readers to see close up. I feel so frustrated when I have to look around for a pair of glasses. With my regular glasses, I'm fine.
    Keep healing! oxoxo
