I went in for surgery on my other eye today when Barry picked me up at 9:20. I'm glad that Brian showed up in time to give me a ride home at 2:30. He was perfectly fine, asking me eight times whether I was okay, how I was feeling, whether I needed a drink or painkillers, etc. Looking at my phone right afterwards was not productive. The sun was bright, but he let me know about the step down to the car. Got home at 3:50 (TEN MINUTES AFTER MOM AND DAD WANTED TO PICK ME UP AFTER AYLER'S SCHOOL PICKUP!) and almost immediately took a nap from the anesthetic. I had some soup as the nurses recommended, then Deb called at 6:10. Sure, I'd be ready pretty soon, and didn't need Dylan to pick me up later. Tomorrow's followup at the eye clinic is at 9 AM - yikes!
The soup prepared me for a dinner of adobo with rice, half a kiwi, GREAT VALUE tandoori chips, and fish congee with shredded pork and peanuts. Declan and Elysse demonstrated the FORTNITE floss dance to me at dinner, hahaha. At 7:15, I decided to check my text messages BEFORE the phone keyboard letters turned to curlicues at the ends, and could barely decipher one which Barry - of all the people - had sent. I got Declan to help read it and reply with "Francis," telling him how to spell the word. No, I was not thinking of giving Barry extra info pre-surgery; he should be happy I was able to call him at ALL! Elysse gave me spontaneous hugs, which is fine. I finally gave the kids those HATCHIMAL and MINECRAFT stickers I'd seen at the Richmond Centre dollar store months ago, and they seemed to like them a lot. I will sleep downstairs on the sofa bed.
Method hand soap: French Lavender!
