I'm happily married to Mr. Man. We have 2 daughters, Big R and Little R. I'm a stay at home mom. We moved from the big city to the country, living a dream. I'm a collector and a packrat. I'd rather read a book than watch a movie. I battle depression. I love life, but that wasn't always the case. This is my journal.

I Can See Clearly Now

Yeah yeah, I know, it's been a while again. Believe me, it bothers me more than it bothers you that I have no life. Big R was going to visit this month but then changed her mind, so now we won't see her until next summer. I'm pretty disappointed about that. I guess the biggest thing that's happened is I had my eye surgery. I got put to sleep for it but most people don't. I just could not imagine sitting still for it. But it was amazing, as soon as I woke up I could see better. Now my new eye is clearer than my other eye. And amazingly there was no pain. It stung and burned a bit at first but a couple of Tylenols took care of that. I had to wear a patch over it when I slept for the first week. I can't get water in it for 2 weeks. I have to put drops in 4 times a day for a month. And obviously I can't rub or touch my eye. So for now, I have to have someone else wash my hair for me. Little R has been a great help, she's been doing my drops and she washed my hair. Mr. Man gets to do it today.

Little R is spending the weekend with her cousin in Scarborough. They'll be going to the big Toronto Santa Claus parade tomorrow. Me and Mr. Man are going to check out the local parade this evening. I don't know why they started doing it in the evening. That started last year. It was better in the afternoon. Everyone loves a parade lol. Mr. Man said something about wine and darts this evening! He's tough to beat at darts. Last time we played I think it was 7 wins for him and 3 for me. We rarely play any more. We have to rearrange the furniture to do it, so it's a pain. Oh I miss the house. We had the perfect set up there. Speaking of houses, we were going to look at one today and then I looked it up on Google maps and found it was just too far out of the way and wouldn't be suitable for us. The house itself sounded great though, it's a shame. I'll just have to keep looking. Something will turn up eventually. We didn't plan on staying here this long.

Christmas is looming. Haven't even started shopping. Money is tight this year. We're having a dinner for some of Mr. Mans family on Boxing Day. Well that'll be our turkey dinner. I don't know when we'll see my family. And so much for our tradition of seeing a Christmas play at the local theatre. This year they're doing Anne of Green Gables. We don't even have any snow yet. How odd. I can tell already it's going to be difficult getting into the spirit of things. But as always I will try.

Well I'm off to get bathed lol. Have a great weekend.
