They work!
Funny how those punctal plugs work. My eyes are definitely less dry. I've been tearing up quite a bit, and not because I'm sad. :-) I've actually had to wipe tears away from my cheeks the past couple of days. It's going to be weird when I actually cry. Now I know why your nose runs when you cry. I never had any idea that those little drains went from your eyes into your nose. Now it all makes sense. ;-)
I'm off to my pre-op exam this afternoon. That's the last step before my surgery next Wednesday. I can't wait. I'm so, so sick of wearing these glasses 24/7.
Mom and dad were here Friday and Saturday. Mom is slimmer than I've seen her in years. She looks good! I hope she doesn't continue to lose weight, though. That would be a worry. I've offered to donate some of my excess poundage to her if she does, but she isn't too keen about taking me up on my offer. Looks like I'll have to come up with another idea.
Mom and dad slept on the new mattress. Dad liked it but mom thought it was a little too firm. Maybe I'll end up buying a memory foam topper like I have for my bed, but I'll see how other people feel about it. I'm just glad that I got the room done. Now I'm ready for more guests. It'll be nice to have two official guest rooms. We also have the overflow guest room in the basement that has two twin beds. So we can actually sleep quite a few people.
This weekend we'll have guests from Nebraska--good friends Norm and Deron, who are coming out here to ride with us. The only problem is that Alan can't ride, because he crashed his bike. Alan's OK, but the bike has $7500 worth of damage. Don't know when it will be fixed. So this weekend poor Alan will miss out on the big group ride on Saturday. We're going to ride the Peak to Peak highway all the way down to Evergreen. That's such a pretty ride. I'm looking forward to it.
Yesterday I rode up to Red Feather Lakes by myself. There were a lot of ominous-looking clouds in that direction, but I decided to ride, anyway. It was perfect. I got sprinkled on, which was great because it kept me from getting too hot (it was 80+ degrees out). A very nice day, and I enjoyed riding alone. I don't do that too often any more.
