Hello everyone. We're missing church this morning (it will be starting in 4 minutes but we are at home still). DH is really worn out (he just went back to bed) and I didn't want to walk over there with my sprained ankle. I really wanted to go today for a sort of silly reason. We got our church newsletter a couple days ago and it has a wedding invitation printed on the front and it looks like the groom is our priest! (We're Episcopalian, so it's fine for him to marry.) I wasn't sure what his marital status was; kind of assumed he was a widower or divorced because I knew he'd talked about his kids but he seemed unmarried. So now it appears he's getting hitched--either that or he has a son with the same name, but there was no Jr. printed there. I can't believe I didn't know he was engaged. He's an older guy (not ancient, but old enough to be my father) so I guess I never thought about him as someone who dated or anything.
Well, anyway, I'd wanted to go today to see if they'd mention the wedding at church. I am having coffee with the assistant rector on Wed. morning, though, so I can ask her about it.
Anyhow, I am still trying to decide about a workout today. It might end up just being Clean Max--I really need to do some spring cleaning. Of course, even doing that I'll have to be careful of my ankle, I suppose.
TK, yeah, having the eyes dilated is pretty annoying--especially when you walk out of the office into the sun--yowza! I went on a Saturday specifically so Brian could drive because there's no way I could drive after that. I didn't do much reading until after my eyes went back to normal, though. Anyway, I keep waiting for the weather to improve to get back to work on the garden. It's only warm on rainy days! Oh, and my dermatologist has me use petroleum jelly on my legs before a shower to help with my eczema. I also use it on my son's eczema. Messy but effective.
Robin, I agree that it would be nice to meet up, especially since we are so spread out. At least you're in PA and I'm in NY--theoretically not that far but depends on where in PA--big state. And Deb is also in NY but pretty far from here.
Jennifer, glad you got your order straightened out. Cathe's team is great at customer service.
Deb, enjoy the elliptical workout (not sure if "enjoy" is the right word.
Leanne, that cost was for the exam, glasses, and a year's supply of contacts. I got polarized thin lenses (whatever they're called) for the glasses, since my prescription is so bad. Also, I have to get toric contacts for my astigmatism, so they're extra-pricey.
Shelley, glad people seem to approve of the frames. It's kind of tricky to pick out new frames when you've just had your eyes dilated! DH wasn't very helpful, either. I was hoping he'd find the perfect pair for me (like he can do with shoes) but instead he handed me a red pair that made my rosacea-face glow even redder. Eek! He described the pair I picked out as "not bad" and "better than the current pair" so that's the best I could do.
