A Boy and Some Turtles

Best news first (for me anyway) - after almost 8 months I finally got a cataract-corrected prescription and was able to order new eyeglasses! (My old glasses haven’t helped much since my first surgery in October.)

It’ll be another week before they’re ready but (fingers crossed) I’ll soon be able to see clearly again. So excited. 

 The Commons at Calabasas

Had lunch with a favorite niece on Friday 

and did I take any pictures of her, or of us together? Nope!

But I got some great shots of turtles while sitting in the sun, waiting for Breanne to arrive (she had the longer drive plus icky LA traffic…)

 Outlets for an iPad charging station!!, more kitchen outlets, a switch and outdoor light by our bedroom window (to see what creatures are wandering the back yard at night), and a whole-house surge protector. 

Also on Friday, we had some long planned, much anticipated electrical work done. Donovan was a bit put out that we had to be outside for sooooooooooo long. 

“Plees can you go in to the haoos so I can sit down”

So he wrote all about it on the driveway. 😂😂 I love this so much. 

 “How much longer plees can you tell me”

He often asks me how to spell words he wants to type in his games, but this is the first time he’s sat down to write on his own, without wanting help (at least at our house). We were both giggling at his messages. 

And the reason we were out there sooooooo long? The new camera over garage is just barely too far out to connect to our WiFi. The electrician and I both tried repeatedly but nothing worked. 

So our 7-year-old mesh wifi system is also getting replaced, thanks to Gary’s stepson, Thomas, who has a degree in IT and helped me choose a new system. I love that kid young man. 💕
