So, it looks like I'm playing my viola at church on Christmas Eve. I just signed up for a refresher lesson with a local teacher (for Wednesday). It'll come back, right? I'm not gonna suck? 'Cause that would be embarrassing.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

The puppy is so cute! Total lethal cuteness bomb.
I'm releasing the ~ma back into the world. Mom's surgery went really well and fast, she totally came out of the anesthesiology well so we stopped to get breakfast at the place across from the hospital.
The doctor said there wasn't that much trash from the buckle in her eye. What's bothering her is scar tissue, she he's going to give her some ointment to put on it and then she'll have to use OTC stuff to make tears to keep it soft and lubricated. He said if she does that on a regular basis the spot should relax back into the eye. Also there's some hardened fat, but there's nothing he can do about that.
She feels good, she calling Aunt J to catch her up and then it's nap time. Possibly for me too.
And I have an update on G'ma. I was really worried the last time I posted about her, but she's gotten better. The medical staff at the assisted living place put her on Haldol because G'ma was getting mean and cussing out the staff, but that's when her balance problems began. However, now that she's off the Haldol, she's walking better and also she's nice to the staff. And instead of calling Aunt J a dozen times a day to say "I'm bored" she's calling once or twice to ask how she's doing.
Aunt J has said "I have my life back" so things are looking up.

Sparky, that is a puppy of much cuteness!

Askye, I'm so glad that there's good news for your mom's eye, and for your g'ma and aunt.

you have to watch the meds like a hawk. My grandmother hurt her shoulder, and the doctor prescribed cyclobenzaprene. My grandmother was taking it 4 times a day with her regular meds, instead of as needed for pain (he'd given her 100). So, g'ma started getting loopy and falling down, etc. We thought she was senile/getting alzheimer's or something, until we looked at the meds and realized that she was just high!

Cute puppy!
