I'm not much of a telephone person, but when I found out Jeri's eye is bothering her too much to use the computer, I decided to give her a call and get our daily news fix that way.

Her eye has been bothering her, and one doctor told her she had makeup in it, and to do a better job washing her face at night. When it didn't get better, she went to another doctor who said she has a fever blister in her eye and she's got anti-viral eye drops. Not only is it painful, she is bored to distraction because she can't see to read, watch TV, or use the computer. Of all the things that can go wrong with our health, vision problems is one of the most worrisome.

Our canyon association potluck is coming up next Wednesday and I have to think of something to take. The last couple times I wasn't happy with the outcome of the recipes I tried. One was a noodle casserole that was really bland, and the next time was fried chicken that I didn't think was very good. This time I'm going to do vegetables, less to go wrong.
