Awww, yay!
Also, yes, handheld clothes steamers are 1,000% better than irons.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Thank you! Flowers retrieved, clothes steamed, people showered, rings and licenses in the car, dinner reservations made.
A break and then I'll put on some make-up, fix my hair, and pack our "go (get your picture taken in 90° heat) bags" and we should be all set.
Seems easy... too easy...

Thrive to spite them
I had the neurology appointment. I'm cleared to return to work on the 17th with 4 hours a day for 2 weeks and if that goes well then to bump it up.
The Worker's comp place has been ..incompetent again and I still don't have a referral to a neuro ophthalmologist but the case worker is really working on that.
I call work tomorrow and talk to them, the case worker is also going to talk to them and also me about details. I guess about transportation. and figure out about me going back to work. I have some more questions about things, I didn't get to but those are mostly for the case worker.
I'm both excited and relieved this part of the process is over but also nervous about going back. The neurologist said I'm near Maximum Injury Improvement but I dont' see how that can be determined until I see the neuro ophthalmologist. Something else I have to ask about.

askye, I'm glad you're cleared, and I hope your return goes as smoothly as possible.
OK, folks, it is done! Went off without a hitch... heh, heh. Except for the part where we got hitched. Officiant was great, photographer was super nice and fun. DP is now DH. I should have pictures in a few days, plus I'll share a phone shot or two once I have a chance to edit.
But I have to tell this funny thing. So, a while back I ordered a lovely dress from e-Shakti that I had planned to wear if it fit well, etc., recognizing that it might not, because I just ordered a size, not a customized one. I knew it probably wouldn't get here on time, but then I'd still have a pretty dress, so win-win.
Found a perfectly serviceable dress in a store. All good.
We just got home. Guess what was on the doorstep? Yup. And it fits like a dream, and I love it. Ah, ha, ha, ha!
So, I'm doing a costume change before we go out for celebratory dinner. I don't even have a good pair of shoes for it, but I don't care. It's so pretty!!
But mostly, yay, married!
Thanks for all the good wishes, folks. They worked.
