Heading Home Tomorrow

Tomorrow I head back home to the Cayman Islands. I’ve been gone about 6 weeks

I’m ready to get home but sad to leave. I’ve been part of a family here, much different than the family I grew up with.

I learned a lot.

I have a new phone, Samsung Flip 7. I like is so far.

When I get home, I’ll deal with my image problem on this blog

Have a great day!

Eye Checkup Today

today is my two week post operation checkup. Hopefully I will get the okay to fly home.

Sooner rather than later. I have enjoyed spending time here with my friends, but I know I’m a burden.

everything happens for a reason

it occurred to me this morning, I was supposed to have visitors come down and stay in my guest apartment in the Cayman Islands. They had to cancel for various reasons.

Now I’m up at their house,, recovering from surgery at the same time they were supposed to be at my house.

Funny, isn’t it?

Monday The 22nd

the irritable in my eyes getting smaller and smaller. It seems to now be about the size of a coke bottle lid. On the 26th I have a doctor’s appointment. And I’m hoping that maybe, hope against hope, I will be home for New Year’s eve. I’m afraid to Hope.

I Can’t Lay Face Down Any More

I went to bed about midnight and woke up about 5:30. I could have slept more, but not laying on my stomach.

Maybe a nap this afternoon or after I’m exhaustiticated tonight.

Last night I took the girl to her Ice Skating . I stayed in the car and read

The bubble is smaller. The sice of a coke bottle cap. Have a great day

From The Outside

Observingbanger from the outside and not letting it affect my external behavior. That’s the goal.

For example , I get irritated about something unimportant, inconsequential, like someone talking too much. I should be able to acknowledge the irritation and not let it affect my behavior.

Thats a goal for me to work towards

have a great day!

Didn’t Post

I didnt post this morning, thought I did but throughout the day I started thinking ” did I post this morning?’

Not much to.report. I lay face.down or look at a book (my ebook) in my lap. My neck hurts from looking down, my shoulders hurt from propping my head on my hands. My jaw and teeth hurt from the weight of my entire head being in them My back hurts because of the poor posture required by this post eye surgery lifestyle.

I’m eating a lot of Tylenol.

Maybe I’ll post again. On schedule, in about 10 hours.

Shrinking Bubble

The gas bubble in my eye is shrinking. I can tell. Hopefully it will be gone by the end of the week.

This blog is boring. All I’ve done is read books. I read Windup Girl. It wasn’t bad but hard to keep track of the politics. I read Post Office, about this guy who works at the post office for decades and hates it. I re-read A Man Called Over. Super good. Now I’m reading 101 Essays That at Will Change The Way You Think.

My neck and shoulders hurt from being propped up on my elbows. My upper and lower back hurts from being hunched over all the time. (Bad posture is the way to go when maintaining face down position all the time.) It’s definitely bad for you.

Almost done.
