Slept most of the day, then had to clean the house before dad got home. How one can get so mad for not cleaning when they are the ones who make the mess is beyond me. Only takes a few minutes to clean off the countertop and rinse the dishes off and load into the dishwasher. Of course I didn't go to bed till after 4 am too. I can't read Newspaper or magazines worth a darn and that is bugging the h*** out of me. I see the eye doc at 10:30 am as long as I get there.

Chris, Do you reallly need to be up doing all that activity?  That eye surgery is n o joke, friend.  Take care of yourself.  So don't read!   Listen to music!  That's what I do four hours a day m,w,f.  ha

Doc said I can resume normal activities, so back to physical therapy I go, but will wait till next week.  ;D

The vision change is part of the healing, but he is going to monitor me more closely now instead of waiting till August which was my next initial surgery follow up since I told him the problems I am having. Down to two different eye drops now and don't have to wear the eye shield at night anymore. Although it now makes me wonder why he changed his plans on how soon he wants to see me if "eye looks and is healing good".

Surprised I didn't get a speeding ticket on the way to the doc, I was speeding up to a green light as the cop was coming the other way. Saw him pull into a business and thought for sure he was turning around to get me, but I already turned and then turned down the street to the docs and no cop  :2thumbsup; :clap; Going home was easier since I mostly followed people till some compact car cut me off so I had to cut him right back off and slow him down, then made him sit at the light  :rofl; Wasn't in the mood for some teenage crap driving, just wish I had some old truck so I could hit his  :sir ken;  :rofl;

Did anybody see the car chase in Dallas on TV yesterday?   Hmmm, wonder if our friend Chris was driving???

We don't have car chases like you do out west. On the rare occassion one does occur on the highway, the news always shows after the fact, not during..

Maybe I get my inspiration from an old 80's movie with Charllie Sheen and Christy Swanson called "The Chase" although I do prefer the BMW film collection of Clive Owen driving various BMW's and doing special stunts. Best video I got for free from BMW when they offered it if you watched all the films online back then.

And it wasn't me Dan, I slept and cleaned yesterday.

Darn Chris, and it looked like so much fun.   Well, until a pickup truck ran into him and now he in the hospital in critical condition plus facing trouble with forgery.  But the first part was an exciting couple of hours.
