My Monday

I am please to announce that my eyes came through their exam with flying colors! Dr. C. was delighted with the healing and declared it safe for me to travel to Germany, when Anneliese decides it is time. I was thrilled with that!

I had the 50 mile to and from Dartmouth Hitchcock all to myself. It is in an area that does not get cell phone reception, and so I was forced to entertain myself.

I put on a CD of Maribeth’s Classic Rock Favorites, and sang at the top of my lungs, songs that were popular when I was in high school. Since Hubby is a wee bit older, he is not as interested in those songs, so I save them for when I am alone.

I must say, that I was as good as ever (lol) and hit every note (lol) and it felt great! In fact it felt so good, that it put me in a very happy mood!

On the way home, I put on the Mama Mia CD and gave Meryl Streep a run for her money, singing all of those songs. Once again, I was fabulous (lol) and wondered why I had not been chosen for the Mama Mia movie role? Oh yes, I know, too young to play the character, Donna, right? Ha!

I like days when I can drive alone and just sing, or think or do a combination of both.

I love to drive the back roads here, especially in the spring, when all the trees are leafing out and the flowers are blooming.

  1. So good to hear that your eyes are healing well! And I can totally picture you belting out those tunes. Singing is good for the soul. 🙂

  2. You sound so happy! I´m so glad the eye exam went well. That is not something to take lightly. I love that you sing be yourself. I am so uptight, I can´t even do that. 🙂

  3. LOL! Oh, I LOVE traveling alone in the car too! When I’m alone I sing at the top of my lungs! But nobody – not even ME – would EVER call me GOOD! I don’t CARE! I LOVE to sing!

  4. How nice that your eyes are good ! Since I have my GPS I also love to drive especially now in spring when the sun is shining, then I sit in my car with music on and drive and drive and stop when there is something special to see or to photograph, I drive and I don’t know at all where I am. When I think it is about time to go home I push on the button “go home” follow the instructions and suddenly find myself in front of our garage. Mr. G. would ask “where have you been” and I can answer honestly “I don’t know !” and then he only shakes his head !

  5. Hi Mom,

    So glad to hear that your eye appt went well, and that you are cleared for take off! 🙂

    Been crazy busy at work–per my usual. Today, they did a “Prostate cancer education day,” with physicians, a nurse, a panel of patients, and then some of our staff physicians–it was a great day!

    Love you lots!

    Mandy
