susandennisThat's what the doctor said when she came in and found me reading stuff on my phone. She was clearly impressed. She does good work. Her assistant had wrestled that horrible patch off so finally I had my eye back. It's still dilated a little and both the doctor and the assistant said it would take a couple of days for it to focus in correctly. Also it's kind of red which the doctor said should clear up soon.
I have drops - 2 that have to go in 3 times a day and 1 that has to go in 4 times a day and they have to be spaced 5 minutes apart. Here's hoping that does not drive me nuts.
Then I walked down into town and stopped at the city grocery to get Dave's Killer Bread and then at Target to get those little fruit gummy bear things and then home. I'm a little out of breath but I think that's from the hot I got walking in the sun.

Last Spring the clinic where my eye and regular and all other doctors work moved from a really old building to a brand, spanking new one - which is beautiful, with great views and easy walking distance home for me. The old place had a plain old place to get coffee and a cookie. The new place had an office converted to a coffee and old bagel place. Today, when I got there, I discovered that Specialty Bakery had moved in. That was quite a treat especially since I was an hour early for my appointment and hungry.
On my way from there to the elevators, I passed a room open with a sign that said something along the lines of 'everything you ever wanted to know about medicare and supplementary insurance.' I popped in and the nice lady told me that she consults on a per client basis with advice on the best way to wander through medicare with the clinic's service and all kinds of other stuff. YEAH! I told her I'd be back in a year. She is a great resource.
I just love this clinic.

Oh and my doctor kind of implied that I might have to stay out of the pool for only one week!! I go back and see her again next Wednesday and I'll find out then.

I threw some chicken and soup and rice and other stuff into the crock pot. There's a good chance it will be total fail so I have a solid Plan B for dinner. And no other plans except to rest and not do much.

Dave's Killer Bread?? But that's free range bread! What is going on? My world is crashing around me!
Or maybe it already did when we had this conversation already and I just have early onset Alzheimer's.

Date: 2012-09-28 07:21 pm (UTC)But, funnily enough, I just today discovered that Costco carriers Killer Dave - two different kinds!! So, hopefully, that's an even better economic boost than I could give if I liked it. Which, really, I do not. Sigh.
But, still, you could have early onset Alzheimer's but if you don't and you want to get it, you'd better hurry cause your runway for 'early' is getting shorter every day... jes sayin'

LOL, thanks a lot!
I like all the flavors but Dave's has several types of bread with pretty varying tastes, in my opinion. I'm personally fond of both "Good Seed" and "Blues." This has been exclusively the bread I've used for my grilled peanut butter and banana sandwiches for quite some time. I love it.
