Larry's Eye Surgery









Yesterday I went with Larry to have his eyes done......It was amazing !!!Larry was very calm, I was a little nervous for him! We drove part way down and then we took the subway.....I watched about five people getting there eyes lased. They have it done in this room that is all glassed off that you can sit and watch.......it was so amazing . It must be such a thrilling job for the Doctors and Nurses there to know that the results of this 15 minute surgery is going to change someones life!
I took all kinds of pictures off Larry getting this done......A LO in progress!LOL His left eye is a little more bruised than his right eye, within 2 weeks they will be normal colour......He has to wear those Funky glasses for a week all day and even in bed at night (its like sleeping with Elvis--I wish!!) Then he has to wear sunglasses out- side. Everyday for the next couple of weeks Larry should notice the changes in his vision -- the doctor said he will have the vision of a Egale ----I said thats fine as long as he doesn't start acting like one and eating rodents!!!
Larry has noticed a change in his vision already today......He could not see a thing without his glasses. He has gone back down today for a checkup with his brother Allen today---that subway ride did me in--another story-like being buried alive for me---major Panic attack!

Hillary's First School Concert!




Well it had to be an all show for this performance.....She wanted mostly her Dad and Uncle 'B' to be there----she knew that Mommy, Nannie and 'G'-Daddy would be there! Well Daddy did go and Uncle 'B' was a surprise.....Brandon was a little upset and wanted to go, so we let him come....Hillary didn't know that he was going to be there......Larry's mother also came which was nice......Well the JK's were the 10th. ones to come out on stage.....Hillary's eyes were wandering all over to try to find us. 'G'Daddy stood up and all you could see was her eyes light up and her say"Look My Uncle 'B' is Here" to her friends sitting beside her! Brandon stood up and gave her a wave.........She gave him a smile and a wave back......They sang two songs...Jesus Loves the Little Children and Jesus Loves Me! It was another Proud Moment for Nannie and 'G' Daddy and also for Great Nana!
Little Harry was very good during the concert.......He thought it was great when everyone clapped for the kids---- he squealed and clapped with joy to join in !

Tuesday April 14th.


Had no time to do what I wanted to do today----> go and Scrap today at Crystals................I brought all the bedding down from the cottage and all the wash from home kept me busy all day! But you feel good when everything is all done!
Larry went out after supper tonight and bought a new Ford Truck!

Monday April 13th.

Trying to get every day put back in an orderly fashion.........The last few weeks have just flown by way to fast.
We went to the cottage on the weekend and it was nice and quiet up there.....all the ice is off the bay now so Larry put the dock in on Saturday......The weather was nice. The next time we go up he will put the track and the lifts in for the boats . Larry and Carlos worked on the electric wiring on the fishing boat and Larry will put new carpeting in it when the weather is warmer---->(for the glue to dry.)
We came home early on Easter Sunday as Hillary was going to stay the night as there was no school for her on Monday........Talk about fun! She was up as soon as Larry left for work.....so much for sleeping in.......Kim and Harry invited us to their house for dinner to celebrate Larry and Brandons Birthdays......as if the two haven't had enough BD parties this year already---LOL, but Kim wanted to have a dinner for them with a fruit flan cake. Dinner was Great----BBQ Ribs--->one of Larry's favorites..............We watched Dancing with the Stars, then came home.
Nothing to exciting but Time sure goes by fast when your having fun!
