Time to Celebrate! FMS586

 



I am celebrating that my second cataract surgery is over and I am recovering!  So many eye drops!  I am still in recovery mode but my vision is much brighter which is the good news.  My up close vision is great but I will need glasses for distance - which is the opposite of what most people have after cataract surgery.  Now I wait for a month until everything has settled in - healed - or whatever is happening in my eyes and then I can get fitted for glasses again.  In the meantime I am wearing very old glasses for distance and none for close work.  I am glad I kept several old pairs over the years.  I have them all over the house now.  It's a little nutsy and I often end up with a headache but it is workable. So I decided a celebration card was in order using SU's new Beautiful Balloons set!




Jacquie has a great sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!

  3. Add me to the list of those happy to hear you're over this second surgery - that 'settling in period' can be frustrating I hear from many, but I hope you'll come through it with flying, clear, and the brightest of colors, Linda!
    In the meantime, your pretty party card is worthy of celebrating!
