Good luck.

For visibility (in case the mail banner is ignored).

And, for everything else!

Please? I despise looking more ignorant than I actually am.

I know it’s a leftover from the election hack, but I hope it’s been resolved!

I was looking into that a little bit back and got distracted with something else. I'll see what I can do.

I wasn’t complaining, but I’m deeply grateful if it could be fixed. If you type without contractions it reads like you’re being a jerk in the headline sometimes, and if you use them and they’re lost you look lazy at best.

hope all goes well.

And for all you do!

I'll schedule something important like washing my hair during the down time.

Then I'll be having cataract surgery and won't miss y'all.

(For all you young whippersnappers out there, believe it or not, cataract surgery is now done on an out-patient basis. Arrive at 11:00 am and expect to leave between 2:30-3:00 pm, seeing better than you have in many years.)

(Just joking about moving the downtime, of course. Thanks for the heads up.)

I envy you. My cataracts are not yet bad enough for Medicare to cover them. Soon. I hope soon!

and they never asked 'how bad'. The opthamologist said 'now' and we scheduled it.

The eye doc is the one saying my cataracts aren't ripe yet. Second opinion and Medicare goes along with that.

Although I had my left eye done about 8 years ago and at the time they told me I had a cataract growing in my right eye that I would have to have done 'eventually'. Then I went to the eye doc a couple of weeks ago and he told me that 'eventually is here'.

So, tomorrow off to 'ambulatory surgery'. Total of about 4 hours for the pre- the op and the post- then go home.

I guess they don't want people fainting from hunger at 3PM when they leave. Good luck.

Had implants in both eyes. Vision is great.

I had both of my eyes done last year. After 60+ years of wearing glasses all I need now are reading glasses.

... I could see what WHITE really looked like. TV was SO SHARP i scheduled the second one to be done asap. The eye drop issue was cake. One thing I didnt know what the second time they give you the 'really good drugs' they arent so ' really good the second time'. They arent as effective and i felt something like sandpaper touching my eye and my nose kept itching...but no discomfort at all. Even tho I had the lenses corrected for far vision i think I would have preferred to have had them corrected for reading instead.

Have fun! see ya on the other side!

Meaning noon Pacific Time. So it gives me an alternative.

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for letting us know.

You're just trolling us newbies. We know you're really having a Secret Society meeting to determine how many McD's and KFC's you'll have to spike with pot to make sure you get Hair Twitler too stoned to push the button.

We’ll keep society free for you til you get back.

Without it I'm sure that I (along with more than a few other DUers) would have panicked. I'm putting in my calendar.

Again, thank you, for all you do.

And good luck!

Good to know, though. Thanks for the heads-up, admins!

We will miss you!
