The Eyes Have It

Norm's left eye is doing well, his surgeon said yesterday. No lifting more than 10 pounds or swimming or carousing allowed for a week. Eye drop regimen 4x a day. The doctor said the cataract was "really big" but Norm says sight with his new implanted lens is great. He's getting by with a $10 pair of reading glasses from the drugstore to read the newspaper until he can get a new prescription in a month or so. He's amusing himself by checking out the myriad digital music channels on Charter, part of a new money-saving bundle we got for our Internet service recently. And thanks, Carla, for identifying yourself as the mystery reader. Now, if those folks in the Netherlands would write me...I think it's Greg and Monique but I'd love to know for sure!
