Good morning, friends! Well, the time has come for my eye surgery. I will be out of commission for 7 to 10 days. I will have to hold my head with chin to chest for at least 12 hrs. a day. I suppose the other 12 hrs., I'll be resting, chin down...somewhere. lol
I will get breaks from that position for bathroom and meals but only 15 minutes at a time. I hate Macular Holes...I've already been through this with my left eye...now it's the right eye. The sooner you see a doctor, if your eyesight goes a bit wonky, the better the repair is. IF you were to wait 6months to a year...there's no guarantees, it can be fixed. I happen to like being able to see straight! So, as soon as I noticed a change, I checked in with the doctor.
SO... this means I don't know when I'll be able to do my next post... (lucky you! lol) but I'll be back as soon as I'm able...I also will find it hard to read and leave comments on your blogs...please forgive me...so...
DO BEHAVE WHILE I'M GONE...lolol
Aren't these interesting facts? lol
Grandson William always acts up when someone tries to take his picture...SIL Tim joined in! lol

Adding you to my prayer list. And all that food you listed, yum...and of course, Sloan...just so precious.
You have a beautiful family.
Best wishes and prayers for your surgery.
I hope all goes well with your eye surgery Donna. You have such a lovely family, Will and Caitlin are a very good looking couple. And of course Sloane is adorable. I shall look forward to hearing from you again when you've recovered. Take good care of yourself. Sooze x
You have a beautiful family! I enjoyed all the pics.
The info about the jaw is so interesting.
I'll miss you and will be praying for your recovery. I am thinking it's some long days going through this!
That is a beautiful cat, looks a lot like maine coon cat or norwegian forest cat. Keep hydrated after surgery, water is especially important for any issue regarding eye health. Also stock up on medications, there is a nasty war coming between Israel and Iran...if it pops off with strikes on Iranian oil fields, shipping and supply chain issues will make those during covid look like a tea party.
Oh, that doesn't sound like much fun, Donna! I'll be thinking of you on the 9th and I'm wishing you speedy recovery.
The Big Red ice cream looks delicious. Only I've no idea what Big Red is ... off to Google it! xxx
Good luck with your surgery. Sending good thoughts and prayers.
Gonna miss you and your blog posts and especially Sloane.
Praying for a complete recovery and it will be over quickly on your surgery. Keep looking "down" for the allotted times then you can keep looking "up" on the bright side.

Sending you prayers and healing for your eye. I already go to the eye dr every 4 months so they are on top of everything at least I hope so.
Cathy
I hope all goes well with your eye surgery Donna, sending my good wishes.
All the best Jan
Lovely photos of your family and friend.
God luck with your eye operation, will be thinking of you and will say a prayer or two.
Take care and all the best.
What a beautiful family you have. Good luck with surgery. Janice
Oh my the recovery from your surgery doesn't sound like fun at all. I'll be thinking of you and sending good vibes your way.
Will's girlfriend is pretty. They make a cute couple. The way she's dressed it looks like they were at a medieval faire.
All my very best wishes to you for your eye surgery. I hope it all goes well. Your ice cream looks amazing and Sloane looks very happy enjoying the cool treat.
See you on the other side xx
Prayers for a successful surgery and strength to get through the recuperation without losing it completely. Sounds rough...but I know you can do it!
I hope your surgery goes well and that you’ll have a quick recovery
I hope all goes well with your eye surgery, Donna. I just said a prayer for you. A lovely picture of Crystal and Tim. Oh, those lemon chicken wings look really good. And the ice cream, Yummy. I want some of that hot chocolate now. I heard it was good with cinnamon. Will try that this year. It probably tastes even better in your Christmas cup. : )
Take care, and I hope you heal nicely.

Thinking of you, follow the Docs orders! Prayers for a easy recovery!!
I hope the eye surgery went well and was successful. I also hope the recovery is complete and not too unpleasant ( the chin to chest for hours on end). Sending lots of good vibes your way💗
I hope you’re doing all right and that your surgery went perfectly. I think I would have a hard time keeping my head in place for 12 hours at a time, but if you must, you must. Whatever it takes to get better. You intrigued me with big red ice cream. It looks so pretty, and who doesn’t like ice cream? Thanks for the recipe, I’m going to be giving that a try. Meanwhile, because we are going to be dropping down to the upper 30s early next week, I have cocoa on my mind as well, and I’m going to be trying a new brand. Be well, and post when you can. We’re all thinking about you.
Hi Donna, I will be thinking of you and saying a prayer for a successful surgery. Very wise of you to check with your doctor regularly. Loved each and every photo as always. Thanks for the recipe for the ice cream. Never heard of that one before. Adorable photos of the family, especially Sloane, friends also. Food is always yummy, funnies too. Thanks for another great post Donna, and I will be thinking of you.
I’m so sorry that I haven’t been around in awhile, Donna. Happy 52 nd anniversary to you both. Your ice cream must be a hit, especially with your Sloane. Patti’s cake from a previous post looks fabulous.
Best of luck as you recover from your surgery. God bless you. 🙏🏻
Hope things are going well, it does sound like you are in for a tedious time but it will be worth it so please take it easy and come back to us when you can. xx
I hope your surgery went well and recovery is coming along!
That Sloane is a smart one! And bread in the air fryer. Brilliant! So glad I stopped by today - lol. (I'm seriously going to try that tomorrow!) I do hope your surgery went well and that you are being waited on like a queen while you recover!!
I have been thinking of you and praying for you, knowing that your surgery was on the 9th. I will miss your posts, but your eyesight is what counts. I guess the good thing is that you have already been through this with one eye, so you know what you are in for.
The cartoon cracked me up!
Your hot chocolate in a Christmas cup made me think of Mexican hot chocolate because of the cinnamon that you added. I had a cup of hot chocolate today myself.
Hugs and prayers, my friend,
Dianna
Ooooh girl I want the wings! I want the toast! I want the ice cream! I want you to have a comfortable recovery from your eye surgery. Keeping chin to chest for twelve hours would hurt my neck, I think. Praying for you, friend! xoxo
I wish you well, Donna...my best thoughts go your way. I hope Miss Kitty gives you great comfort during this time. All the very best. Take good care.
I do hope your surgery went well and you are recovering well.
All the best Jan
