Monday, November 24, 2025 We should be home from our wonderful trip to the UK and back to our regular lives. I had a mammogram today and thought I would take a picture for those of you who have never had the pleasure. I don’t find it awful, except when they say, “hold your breath,” […]
Sunday, November 23, 2025 We should have been flying home from London today, but instead we got to see both of our boys. Benjamin mentioned yesterday that he could use a box grater for Christmas. He said he has use of one nearly every day. In the night, I realized we have a box grater
Saturday, November 22, 2025 I woke up this morning and the gas bubble in my eye was gone! It really started shrinking last night and this morning, POOF! My vision is still blurry and that will last a while, but there is no black spot. Hurray! British Dave is visiting Benjamin and now they are

Saturday, November 15, 2025 Keith washed the windows on the south side of the house and we can see so much better. They were obviously in need, but you never quite realize how much they will improve. I am also seeing better. The bubble in my eye is shrinking and if I tilt my head
