A Beautiful Day but I’m getting Old

Today was gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. The sun was shining and it got up to 60°. Allie is recuperating nicely from surgery. Both of her back legs are bandaged and we have to keep Glad “Press N Seal” on them in order to keep them dry when she goes outside. She is so good about letting us put it on and take it off, and she doesn’t pick at it. She barely has an incision on her tummy. If I ever have a hysterectomy I want her doctor to do it.

But of course what started out as a great day turned. First my orthopedist is making me have a nerve test on my hand before he does surgery. Thankfully he felt bad for me and prescribed a Valium for me. The last nerve test I had done 8 years ago was bad enough and my hand wasn’t nearly as bad as it is now. Than I go to the eye doctor and he tells me that my eyes are getting “Tired”. (At least I didn’t have to have bifocals yet).

And of course Gary is with me through all of this and his eyes are just fine. I feel like he should go out and and shoot me some-days. Isn’t that what they do to “Old Mules”?

On Sunday, I made to wonderful deserts. They were so good that Gary wanted me to make more ice cream tonight, I really hope he’s not too upset when he gets home from work and there isn’t any. They are both light and full of wonderful flavor. I hope you enjoy them.
