I need cataract surgery on the right eye
Anecdotally my mom had hers done and it was easy peasy with quick results. She was very pleased back in 2017. If I need it, I'm going to get past the scared and see better. I did think I was seeing floaters once but it was just a spider on its web that was MUCH closer than I thought.
Same with my dad. (The surgery, not the spiders. So far as I know, anyway.)
I've had cataract surgery for both eyes and it was the easiest surgery I've ever had. Being awake during surgery was a little weird but that was the only issue.
I’ve bought an $80 doormat. Those nice water hog ones from ll bean in the big sizes, like 4x6? Essential if you get snow. (But I am known to be boring.)
I bought my son this doormat for $14, and he loves it: [link] However, this is inside an apartment building, where they have the serious snow and yuck-capturing ones at the main entrance.
It was pretty cool that I could get the consult for the cataract surgery next week. The sooner the better.
Helpful to know, flea! I have zero doormats so my perspective is, no doubt, extreme.
My current doormat was $14.99, but a: it was half-off; and b: it's on the covered porch and comes after the large, hardcore mat that we got when we had dogs. A regular doormat gauntlet (we also have one on a low spot on the path to the house).

They live in a high-rise apartment building in Virginia.
To be fair, they’re moving into a nice new apartment after years in a nearby apartment that was honestly kind of a dump. But it’s also the only thing on his list. So I stand by my saltiness. Which is mostly in good humor.
My all-time favorite doormat (which IIRC was actually a Christmas present) was this one:

Our doormat says "Hope you like dog hair"
JZ got the Good Place doormat: "Welcome! Everything is Fine."
And, you know, everything has NOT been fine so I find myself in disagreement with the doormat every time I come home, but don't want to get rid of it since Jacqueline got it.
Also, Matilda spilled a big latte all over it and it has a big stain.
So that's the story of our doormat.
