Alive and well...

I really didn't intend to drop off the face of the earth!  It's just a mixture of eye surgery on Friday (which made it difficult to look at a computer screen for days), Easter preps Saturday, Easter on Sunday, recovering on Monday... well, you see my mind has been elsewhere. 

I'd planned to write for this blog and Mom Heart all afternoon but Christopher called on my way to the grocery store (how does he know these things?) to tell me he didn't have the car today and he'd buy lunch if I could pick him up.  He's still not able to walk very far.

As I've said before, I drop my To Do list when I can spend time with people I love.

We ended up going to our favorite Mediterranean restaurant right on campus.  Over a lunch of hummus, flat bread, Israeli salad, and fattoush... we caught up on life.  I was so stuffed with healthy food that I took half the fattoush salad home to hubby. 

It was this very restaurant a few years ago that brought about our summer of making hummus and Israeli salad at home at least a couple times a week.  I can make decent hummus but nothing like we get at the restaurant... yum.

He is on pain meds and a muscle relaxant after tearing a muscle on the day we had that big snowstorm.   It was a rather freak accident and the doctor is hoping he won't have to have surgery, all prayer is appreciated.  He's trying to not move much, which is not always possible when you have a full time job and are active in your church.

We had a lovely time with he and the Mrs on Easter.  We had a chance to chat while finishing dinner preps and talked a little more after dinner but his dad and I encouraged them to leave early so he could have plenty of sofa time before work on Monday.

As for me, my eye surgery went well even though it took twice as long for the actual surgery as the first time.  We won't know how much it worked for a few months.  Glad to have it over...
