Greetings!
Quick one again, but some good news this week! :)
Spent the week in semi darkness whenever possible, as usual these days.
Have to peek at the snow sculptures every day, though--lol!Monday--eye doctor. Finally starting to see improvement enough that she kept me on the same steroid decrease schedule. If it gets worse supposed to call right away. Go back in a month. Fingers crossed!
I had ordered an eye patch. Some days I can't wear it because it rubs on my eye to much no matter how much I try to move it around. I think I need a more dome shaped one like I had after my cataract surgery--lol!
Woke Allie up when she was sleeping. Hard to sneak up on a cat. ;)
Wednesday--Dr. Failing, oncologist. All good. Can go for a year and after two years we can quit getting rechecks!! (If all goes well, of course.) As we were waiting for the valet parking a lady in a wheelchair rolled up to Leah and I in the waiting room and handed each of us a little folded up piece of paper. She told us it was something from tick tock she saw about giving people little messages from a stranger. She continued to hand them out to other people in the waiting room. We couldn't read them until she wasn't around, she said. Leah's was yellow and mine was green. That was a sweet thing.
I had cancelled my DMV appointment. Leah needed to be able to fly this week for work and didn't want to wait till the last minute so she rescheduled hers for Monday early before work. Then there was no point in me making a solo trip when I wouldn't pass an eye test right now anyways. My birthday isn't till the end of March so I have a while if they really do give you a year. I'm not worried about it since I haven't driven for years anyways and could always get a ND non-driver ID. I can wait to go later when I can (hopefully) at least see to pass an eye exam--lol!

I already got a bunch of review paperwork from ND. I had been working on those forms for two days and hadn't gotten halfway through it all. Leah volunteered to come down and help me by filling out the rest. She even vacuumed for me and did a couple other things.
I realized on Friday while rereading the surgery information that Dagan might not be able to stay the entire time I am at the oral surgeon's on Wednesday. Didn't know Leah was going to be out of town and the boys come home from school at 3pm. My appointment is at 1pm. If I am not ready to leave by about 2:30 he would have to go home, pick up the boys and come back to pick me up. They make a big point of saying you need a driver and they must stay there the entire time. So I sent the oral surgeon a text to let them know the situation. He wouldn't be gone long but, if it was a rule of theirs, I wanted to know if I'd be done by then, or could I come in earlier, or would it matter? Good grief. I've never had a problem being put under. But the information mentioned that specifically twice. Something must have happened sometime along the way. Maybe I should have asked if I could sign a release form--lol! Anyways, I hope that doesn't interfere with the plan. I've waited long enough to have this tooth out as it is, you know?
So...that is that. Still waiting on the eye, but it is slowly getting better she said. I can't necessarily tell that much. I have made a couple short comments on a couple blogs, but then can't see well enough later when I go to read some more blogs. I guess I should wait a while to push that. Still frustrating. I do miss writing letters, commenting on blogs, playing a little with art, and doing so many other things. Patience. Just have to be patient.
New month. Hopefully a very good month...where feeling better is right around the corner. :)
Till next time...love and hugs from Fargo. :) :)
