We woke up at 7:30, but I played games in bed until about 9:30. Last night I noticed that my left eye was very red. I called the doctor. They asked me if I could come in at 11:15, and I said yes. We left just a few minutes after the call was done.
Traffic was fine going up to Balcone. There was a gas station at the corner there, so I filled up the truck. It took 28 gallons - 2 more than the size of the old truck's tank. We got there early, but they took me almost immediately.
A technician did a bunch of tests and then left me in a room to await the doctor. That took 20 minutes to half an hour. He looked at the eye and pronounced it just fine. The redness was a bruise caused by the surgery. Apparently eye bruises are bright red because the surface of the eye is transparent.
Traffic was building up when we left, so I took the toll road. We still had to wait north of 360. We stopped at the post office and then went to the Italian place for lunch. Of course Lucy got to stop at Tomlinson's first. After lunch we took her to the park. She only walked about half a mile or less before she was tired out. That's sad considering the old days when we would walk around the park with her doing retrieves all the way.
When we go home I decided to do some more book encoding. I did 15 CDs. I completed the book I started yesterday and finished another. John and Melissa came over just as I finished. They spent the day at Isaac's shipping packages. Isaac is on a buying trip to Dallas.
We talked for awhile. Ellen fixed steaks for dinner. She added the rest of yesterday's shrimp and salad. It was good. Afterwards we talked for hours.
Melissa left at 9, john stayed until almost 10. After that it was a little surfing followed by bed.
