Repairs
Well crap... the nose piece on my glasses, somehow, broke off. And this is my spare pair of glasses. I did say that I'd go in for an eye exam at Pearl Vision or Lens Crafters. Maybe they still have that buy one get one free pair of glasses. It might be time for a stronger prescription. It's been 4 years since my last exam.
Speaking of exams and doctors, my mom is starting to get accident prone. Poor thing. She injured her foot Tuesday without realizing how extensive the damage was. The next day, she and I went to eat at a new restaurant and after sitting for 2 hours, she went to get up and that abuse from yesterday caught up with her. She limped back to the car and I drove for her. As were riding, she said that we would have to detour to the ER. The pain tripled in no time flat. I had to throw some clothes in the washer for daddy so I opted to do that after dropping her off. I also grabbed a book or two expecting a long night in the ER.
Time I got back to the waiting room, I saw that she was already being seen. The most awkward thing happened when I walked into the door. As soon as I walked in, all eyes turned towards me. Probably 10-13 people. It made me uncomfortable. I was wearing boots with a 3 inch heel with a huge cowl necked sweater and my favorite form fitting jeans. A pair of jeans one of my good friends persuaded me to buy. Even my hair and skin were very well behaved. I was dressed to impress because it was supposed to be a night out. I stood out so sharply in an hospital waiting room.
The wait wasn't as long as I expected. I know when I was younger and I went to the ER as often as I did, it was long long waits. But either they've gotten more efficient or my parents have excellent health insurance. An upgrade from when I was on their plan. So after only 2 hours, we were riding back home. All day today, she's been asleep. As such, I've been as quiet as a mouse and doing that has me feeling couped up and stir crazy. I didn't go walking this morning because it was cold and I had a bad dream about running into a pack of crazy dogs who attacked me and my dog. If I sleep well tonight, I will go walking, regardless of how cold it is.
