Visit to the Ocular Surgeon

Today one week ago, we drove 14 miles, which took 40 minutes of traffic and lights to get to the Surgeon office for a consult on when Bob's tumor will be removed from his eye socket/lid.

It was 97 in the shade, and I was thankful on Thursday that there was ONE shady spot, and we got it. We waited looking at the view of the dreaded mask and the beautiful view, for 35 minutes.

We then waited in the consulting room for another 1/2 hour. I was in the corner behind Bob and he has no idea I took this. I think he might have been praying for patience in the 2nd shot.

I know I was.

We are thankful the surgery will be 3 weeks from today, July 30th. It requires a visit at 10 am to MOHS surgeon to remove the tumor, then at 3 pm same day the 40 minute DRIVE in heat and traffic to get the Ocular surgeon to repair the eye lid.

Ginny and Phil, a blog friend had this same thing, so we know it is common to have 2 surgeries at different times.

He may have to wear a patch from1 to 5 days, depending on how much she has to do..

I am praying they will let me wait in the office somewhere while he has the lid repair.

Talk to my mask

I wore this mask to Walmart, and all the other old people shopping the senior hour had on mask of some kind.

This is a N95 whatever that means, a car pulled in my driveway and my Friend Jackie and her daughter CC, had brought me 2 of these because my home made one made my glasses fog in the cold store.  I stood the correct distance from the car and the 3 of us talked and talked...


The good news is, No make up needed, and even if my hair is a mess, know one can recognize me.
I did wear a little make up because like wearing clean underwear when you go out, the face under the mask has to look OK.

I mean what if I got in a car accident, or fell down in the store parking lot and the EMTS came to help me and saw me with no makeup.... Then I would be transported to ER where the doctors and nurses would see me with no make up. PLUS I might be there for weeks with NO MAKE UP ON..

of Course no one could come visit, so I guess it doesn't matter.  Linda Chapman do you wear makeup under your mask? Myra?

I got a basket for a lady that was in line without one, she shared a wipe with me for helping her. we chatted from 6 feet away while in line and it was odd talking to someone and not being able to read their face...   And the Oddest of All, is I felt like I was a bird let out of a cage... Woo HOO! a Walmart speed shop. we all go fast and get out... But I did get to TALK... Bob says he is afraid i might blow up from lack of letting off steam talking.

DO you vote for number 1 or 2 of MY BEST SIDE?   in case you need help 1 is at the top and 2 at the bottom... OK i will be rambling on off now...... Bob was right I MAY EXPLODE right here on this blog.

Let Me Entertain ME

Before you read on, can you guess what we are covering today? Pun intended!

if you are as old as I am, the right left might look a little familiar. 

😁😜😁

My cousin Bonnie posted a video on FB about making our own mask, Without Sewing? YAY!
By the time I was through, I had spent 2 hours on making masks to wear when I go out. If you don't know why I need a mask, you are in Big Trouble.
First I made a red mask out of a bandana, loved it because it covered The Chins.. But a little embarrassing for wearing in public.

I grabbed a white hankie and Voila! loved it.  I can now make one in 30 seconds. Any square will do, a friend said she was going to try large napkins.

Here is the LINK to the how to video.... I challenge you to show me what you make..  I used hair elastics but rubber bands or elastic will work.

THEY say Wear mask in public....

PLEASE DO NOT BUY MASKS... leave those for the front line people..... after you wear this, you can wash out in soapy water, dry by hanging, zap in microwave for 2 minutes AFTER removal of the ear handles.

A Guessing Game

Can you guess what MadSnapper was doing? I mean other than taking a silly selfie! As in why do I have on Bob's blue handkerchief?   Scroll way down for answer

If you guessed cleaning the bathrooms, you are right! I am allergic to Chlorox and try not to use it, but anything that kills mold, almost kills me.

This allows me to breathe while working. YES! I know they make masks, the scarf is Free and doesn't fill the garbage dumps.

Ca D' Zan 4

We entered the house through the grand ball room, when I stepped in the maginficent room, this is the first photo I snapped. Every 10 foot tall Sconce in the room, was decorated with greenery and a Mask, even the wall scones.

Above is my devilish  mask as I MadlySnapped almost every Mask in the room and then there was the Christmas tree covered in Mask. (below photos were on the tree) 

I googled and googled until my head hurt and found nothing that say why, when they used mask to decorate with. Maybe because they were Circus Family and these are Court Jester Mask and that translates in 2011 to clowns.

Above Mask is MadSnapper as she snapped all these mask, and the second side is YOU dear Readers, saying Enough Already with the Mask. The end.
OOPS! not quite the end, one more thing......

Corny Joke of the Day.

I believe I will be able to run my car on politicians promises but I'm having trouble with the fool injection system.

The End for NOW
