Well folks, it's been an interesting few days. We'll start with yesterday (Monday). Went off to FINALLY pick up my new glasses (with bifocals) and as I went by the bead shop, I spotted my girl friend's car. Gee, usually she works on Thursday, but I haven't seen her since August, so I'll stop. It was an auspicious call. She had just taken ownership of the store and I got to be her very first customer. I paid some of the tally (like I could walk out empty handed) with a one and signed and dated it for her. It is now hanging on the wall at the store.
I finally got to Lens Crafters and picked up the bifocals. They're going to take getting used to - I get dizzy when I look down and either need a lower chair for the computer or just wear my distance glasses... LOL Also scored a great pair of jeans at Marshall...
But this AM brought another good surprise. DS had the big screw in his leg removed. He and DH left at 5:30 AM and I joined DH in the waiting room by
8:20 AM (DD went to the neighbor's). I'm sitting there and notice a couple walk in about 9 AM. It's an old daylily buddy (we only live a few miles apart) that I haven't seen in years. His wife is there for one those routine tests we get when we hit 50 or so. We had a good time catching up. He was amazed by how big the kids are and he's a grandfather now.
So - we're home now, since DS only had heavy sedation, I can wander and do stuff, but not leave the house for his pizza. (thank heavens)

So, I'm off to do some laundry and other housewifery and escape the videogames.

PS - just found out the DS can be back on the ice in 2 weeks and the surgeon's team needs a goalie for pick up games.....
