Almost Easter

Easter is here, or at least the weekend. This year the whole tribe will be coming here for the family meal. There has been a lot of cleaning (not normal) including dusting! I am looking forward to the event. It will be great to show off OdManorII and to have the whole family here to help make OdManorII truly HOME.



More good news, the eyes are feeling great! As you can see in the picture the swelling has gone down. There is still some dryness, but a drop or two of fake tears does the trick. I know it is a little creepy seeing the eye so close up, but it is still cool!

They say a picture says a thousand words. That is most certainly true with this one. Don't we all feel like this from time to time. What do you think this cat is thinking?

I can See!

What an eye. This is a picture of my eye the day after LASIK eye surgery. The good news is that I now have 20/20 vision! No MORE CONTACTS OR GLASSES!
If you look closely at the picture you can see a red half circle surrounding the top portion of my iris. This is where the laser cut the skin of my eye. The skin was then peeled back so the laser could get directly to my lens. My lens were then burned to the correct shape and the "flap" of skin was then flopped back into place.
It looks bad, but there is/was NO PAIN! My eye now feels dry but eye drops solve that problem. The only restrictions I have is that I can not swim for 6 weeks and NO RUBBING OF THE EYE! That means I will have to put my speedos away. BUMMER.

On a totally different subject I have been a cleaning/unpacking like a fool lately. I am getting ready for Easter. The whole Od-family will all be coming to "the big town" and having easter at the OdManor. I am excited to show off the new place. To add to the excitement, I am also planning a golf outing. Imagine that, a golf outing in northern Iowa the third week of March.

Stay tuned for exciting blogs.........................
