My Peepers: First Hurdle Crossed

The first hurdle is crossed: the "spot welding" by Laser surgery of my retina to the rear of the eye ball has held. Retina is tight against the back of the eye. All restrictions I had (lifting, reading for a length of time, exercising, etc.) have all been lifted. Though I can't see much better than last Friday when all happened, the Dr. says that my "measurements" are 40% better. Son't have to return for 5 weeks; by then things should have improved significantly. I sure hope. After we opened gifts on Christmas morning, Chris and I headed north to Michigan to see two of our children and about 6 grandchildren. Was a fun time. Even got to Michelle's as she was putting a turkey dinner on the table. Couldn't have planned that better if it had been planned!
Above are Brittany, Mel and Joshua. The goofy "horns" by Josh's head are done by the big boy to the right....don't kids outgrow that????
