Oh yes belated thank you to Uncle Spud for shampooing the Mom's carpet.
THANK YOU

Tired

Just got home from Emmett. Mom is feeling better. Last night she actually slept part of the night on the couch rather than the recliner. Her Lasix is kicking in the ridding her of excess edema of her tootsies. She is consulting her doctors and FNP's regarding medication regulation. Shealso decided that she needed to give up her car so after considering the many options of what to do with her 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada, she is trading it to me for an electric scooter. She wants a four wheeler for better stability. They only go 5 mph tops so no fear of a ticket um unless it is for obstructing traffic. Watch out Emmett!! Thank you to cousin Marian Beatty for getting us the information on the scooter. I also saw the coolest stretch"limo" on the way home in very slow traffic on the 205 around Portlandia. Some obviously richer than me person took one of those huge honking van types and stretched it out to 20 feet, so people don't have to crawl to their seats, they can stroll casually back and drop in for the ride.

ERm picture of where we ate last night only it was very early evening.

I and two co-workers went out for dinner this evening and decided to blog our reviews thusly;

Sue and Gail had the prime rib with oven baked new potatoes, house salad, white wine, merlot. I had the Oregon Fish and Chips consisting of halibut, French fries (cool) green beans and pearl onions (cooler). The ladies enjoyed their prime rib. I enjoyed my halibut. Dessert was a lemon layer cake, again delish. Oh and I had iced tea. On a scale of 1 to 10; one on a par with a school lunch room and 10 being gourmet dining. I would give this evening's effort a good solid 5.
We dined at the Mill Casino in the Plank Room with a gorgeous view of the bay, the service was excellent and the early bird price was under 15 bucks each. Not bad.

This is Dr. Sinnott looking into my right eye this morning.

I have somehow scratchedthe cornea, it hurt like hades and he gave me a nice sample bottle of very expensive anti-inflammatory eye drops. Phew! I had to take minutes at medical staff meeting this morning and was wiping copious tears while setting up lappy. He took pity on me and dragged me off to ER for a quick exam. Thanks, Doc!! Two drops in right eye three times a day. Right is is complete blur. Left eye okay for navigating, sort of.

Travel plans include flight to Boise tomorrow, I will be leaving before Carla gets there on Friday,not good planning on my part. I was only thinking of the Gi-NORmous pile of work waiting for me when I get back....... sigh.....R

I talked briefly to Mom this morning.

She is being transferred from St.Lukes Meridian to St. Lukes Boise for pacemaker insertion this afternoon. I just might fly home for a week postop. Must check airlines. Bye

Good news: Ma is mending, they are giving her a full breakfast this morning.
