Oh What a Day!

 The day  mentioned in the title is in HER blog.  I will try not to let her make me type it all for her again here.  The little hussy. 

We are in a drought as are many of our friends.  One son in Charlotte NC,  along with the City of Charlotte  and surrounding area are in severe drought and under water restriction.  My roses said they were sick and tired waiting for me to get the memo that THEY needed water very badly.  They started looking badly and that is what it took for me to realize how remiss I had been.  The sky finally opened and so far in the 6 days of this week we got 2  inches.  Supposed to keep on for another week.  When nature stops watering, I will start moving the hose from bush to bush right after with each getting 30-45 min. each day for several weeks & get them caught up.  The gardenias were starting to look sad and only the camellia kept looking normal.  

I hope daylight savings time for all year does pass.  I'd take either time cycle if one would be chosen and stuck to.  Let's hope.

*RANT* I was wondering.  Am I, and many of the CB, the only ones in the U.S. who can write a sentence without the F word?  That's the surest method to keep me from reading your blogs and Face Book page.  I can't STAND that! If you have to say it aloud as well with every breath and I am there to hear it, well, so long.  I know you won't miss me.  Nor I you.  I guess said offenders think they look allllll grown up. *END RANT*

For the first time in probably 12 years, said boy in NC is not going to be traipsing around the rest of the world as he usually is during the Summer...and will be here the seventh of June for a WEEK!!  HOORAY!!!  Can't wait. Neither can Katie.  He's her favorite brother! 

Got me laughing even when I didn't want to. 

LOVED this one!!

For Pete sake

 First of all, her wonder who this guy named Pete is, that we do things for his sake?  

Anyhow, I entitled it that because if it isn't one thing it's another!  I have a  thing going on with my right eye for the past year.  A few days ago, I had to call for a work-in with the ophthalmologist as I thought I had something rough edged in my eye.  Got the appointment within an hour.  He flipped my upper eyelid inside out.  Thought that would hurt but all I knew was for a few seconds~ The pain was gone when he flipped the lid  until he let the lid back down, then, pain back. The pros have to give me eye drops to just examine my eyes for years they are so dry. 

While the lid was back side forward...he saw that the problem was extreme dryness and the inside lid was very irritated.  He prescribed three things for it which started working right away.

Using eye drops don't help but for 20 minutes or so.  Because, after all this time, the problem turned into something worse...still under the "title" of dry eyes however.  It was explained to me why this happened, why other painful event on my eye happens and now that I know I can try to alleviate the  problem going forward. Wish I had known what was causing all the problems the past 3 years so that I could have taken some steps to help.  Again eye drops are not the answer.  Too long to go into here.  So right now, I am much much better.  Can't wear my mascara for awhile now.  My blonde eyelashes are there looking invisible~ unless yer gonna smooch me. Then, they're pretty. Got my blonde eyebrows darkened some though.  That's it.  Plainest face I have had for a while.  Decided to do without lipstick too for a while.  That's just a personal silliness.   May as well be invisible except for my hair. Red. 

Grandboy is coming over after his haircut!  Get ready for some noise and lots of eating.  

Katie said to tell you CB'ers that she is still doing decently.  Eating her meals, though not large ones, playing a little and staying with me all night, cuddled up.
