I worked up enough courage to drive myself to First Friday Mass. It was perhaps not a good decision, but I wanted to go to Mass and I did. I took as many side streets as possible, but still had to take a busy street near the church. I was careful and made it. After Mass I waited until most of the cars left before I drove out of the parking lot. I just wanted to be there; go to Mass, so I did.
I guess I won't be able see "right' still the other eye "matches" up with the left eye for acuity, comfort and stability. I can't wait for this to be completed. All the while that this is in progress I must basically stay in and off the road, for when I do have to drive, I am using extreme care and stressed. Too bad, so sad. I will get over the inconvenience and count my blessings, but in the mean time...girrrr! I hate being side lined in such beautiful weather!
Last eve. I made Fish Chowder. It turned out OK, and yes, I cheated. I used one can of potato soup, one can of whole corn, a packet of instant onion soup and about 1/4 of a package imitation crab meat, cut up. Just put it on the stove and cooked/heated it up as everything was already cooked. It was pretty good, but in the future I will use creamed corn instead of whole corn. Not bad as it was. 'though.
Life takes courage, determination, and above all, a strong faith. Right now a member of my family needs all of the above. She is going through "Chemo," has lost a lot of weight, is in pain, and is very, very sick. She definitely had a good influence on me in my early childhood years. As I do not want to "preach" to her, I would be pleased if some of you...or all of you, would pray for her. So...can you spare a prayer or two?
