the eyes have it

Throughout the week, the fog lifted, and by Tues or Weds, my left eye was stronger than my right and I could see clearly without glasses....quite the new experience.

Weds, went to Herb Jacobs & got taxes done. Will owe some $$$, but not much...he's amazed how we live on on so little income. Speaking of Herb, where the hell is the other Herb, the other Louise? Vegas? Maybe. Working? Probably not. Even Lanie is beginning to speculate.

Thurs. evening, Brian spent the night and we watched Survivor and we did just that. He's stopping by about once weekly now.

Despite my worst fears, and some stupid eye rubbing, the eye exam on Friday caused me much relief...everything is fine. Chinese MD Wu took over for Rabin and I'm glad she did. Asked me if I tossed & turned, I answered "I just toss....no turning." She liked that.

That PM, Shea came by and she and Sylvia shopped, as per usual. Beachcomber came out and my Prach Ly and my LBCC with the Jane Fonda quote came out....pretty good.

Sat., did my show, cooked a chicken and returned to the gym for the first time since the surgery...doing less weight, more reps, good idea.

Sun, cooked ham bone & beans. Heather called, and we talked about, guess what? Herb & Louise, tho she gave us some sterling advice: before you look for them, remember, you might find them, then what? That's right. What would we do with them then?

So instead, we went to Los Cerritos House, ceremony with the Mayor, with Dave Grudt, had cake, coke & coffee, pretty fun day. My new nemesis, Randal Hernandez was there, always in the same blue shirt and chinos. Ducked him, then we returned home, which hadn't burned down because I TURNED OFF THE STOVE with the beans atop it.
