Toby had Cataract surgery a few months ago.I am very leery of my eye being probed.I try to avoid any surgeries if I can help it .I have had 3 and that is enough.My father was healthy till age 69 ,only had one surgery in his life and lived to 86. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goofball😀 One of my grand dogs is going to be staying with Toby and I for a few days in January.Toby bought him a very nice comfy looking dog bed. He was here last week and we took it out for him to try.Instead of going in the bed he preferred crawling into the box it came in.That seems to be something that many dogs like . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to deviate from Whiskey, try the Appleton Estate 15 year rum. I've been using the 8 year in drinks and it's really good. Never had the 15 year though. You'll have a hard enough timing pacing yourself though with just whiskey. I think the samples should be about a half an ounce but even if I did all the VIP selections, that's a lot of whiskey. Luckily I know my tolerance level and when to shut it down. I will try the Appleton 15. 34 minutes ago, BonTexasNY said: Braved an upcoming storm yesterday to have a cataract consultation.

I am thinking of you and hoping things get better. That is frightening. Meth does some pretty scary things. Sorry this happened to you. It happened to my friend. What really scared her was that she realized how closely she came to killing someone. Her line in the sand was if he had started to come in the window. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a weird experience right after I posted a couple of hours ago. As I went to "like" someone's post, CC just totally stopped working for me! I could no longer get on, so I knew it was time for me to go outside and begin the outside work that was waiting for me. After coming back in, I was hoping the wonkiness was over, and happily, here I am again!😁 I still can't log in to my phone, though..🤷♀️ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can your dr prescribe something for the day of surgery? I have anxieties at times, and the dr gave me something to take. I've had both eyes done...truly, it's a piece of cake! (not really cake, but you'll be amazed at how painless it is) The biggest bonus is...wait for it....no more eyeglasses!!!! It's a win-win! You'll do great!

We just finished watching the third of his specials on Netflix, and they were all excellent. I can’t remember the last time we both laughed so much. If someone needs a good laugh, I highly recommend. Going to recommend these to my daughter today. Glad you enjoyed it. Brian Regan & Jim Gaffigan are also some of my favorites, especially their early Netflix specials. Recently watched Jo Koy. If you don't mind a few naughty words sprinkled in to enhance a joke, he's hilarious. Another up and coming young comedian is Taylor Tomislion although she does "get dark" in some of her skits as she has struggled with mental health issues and the passing of her mom, all of which she speaks openly and frankly. Might not be for everyone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, the reality if it is that I am cheap too. I prefer to use the word budget-minded or economical. They make being cheap & frugal sound like it's a skill. 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckynana Posted November 5, 2022 #76874 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Last night, our granddaughter Meghan and her team became the CCC North Champs in Girls Field Hockey. Meghan is also a Captain on her team. Luckily for us, we're able to watch our grandchildren on YouTube for most of their games. On Thursday evening, we were watching Meghan's game. They were ahead 1 to nothing for most of the game, and just toward the end of the game, the other team scored, tying up the game. They were going into overtime, and whichever team scored first, they would win the game. The clock was set for 10 minutes, and both teams went onto the field. I looked down at my phone, and Meghan's team scored, winning the game! So exciting for the girls...I can't believe I missed the shot...they couldn't have been on the field for an entire minute when I looked away. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
