Regular Sherlock Holmes

By golly I did it!!  I figured out a way to get around all the double vision crap so I can actually get my work done.  I dug out my boss’ magnifying glass.  It’s helping a GREAT deal.  It’s cut out the double vision all together.  Only draw back is I look goofy and its a pain trying to hold the glass and work at the same time.  It’s slowing down my normal speed because I have to keep setting it down and picking it up, but it has increased the speed Ive been at since Ive been at work.  I feel SOOOOO much better right now.

Rachel was sending me text messages yesterday I cant read them, it took me forever to figure out what she was saying and Im not even sure I got it right.  Then when I try to respond I cant see what Im typing so it probably made no sense at all.  Now that I have my handy dandy magnifying glass that wont be a problem.  Earlier in the week I was just having Stephen read the messages to me and then proof read my response, thats not possible at work.  Sorry Rach if I sounded a little wack!!

I forgot to mention I could actually see the Statue this time.  I couldnt last time, but this time I could and that for me was beyond exciting.  Not the fact that I saw her, just the fact that I COULD see her.  Ive tried my best not to cry since the surgery.  Tears of  joy ofcourse.  My eyes got a little misty once or twice, but not bad.  Im excited for myself and overwhelmed at the fact that I can actually see things.  Things I couldnt see before.  I havent been able to see for about a year and a half so this is just great for me.

Anyways……..Stephen and I havent set a date yet.  I was thinking 2 years because I have so much going on.  My sister gets married in August of this year.  My parents 25th wedding anniversary is March of 2007 and Im planning a big surprise party for them.  Mom turns 45 this year, dad 50.  So the next year and a half is a bit busy.  Then I got to thinking……why do I always put myself aside for everyone else?  So, I shall talk to Stephen tonight.  I want to get married in June just because Im supersticious, ::sings from 7 brides for 7 brothers:: "Oh they say when you marry in June……Youre a bride…….All youre life….."  So, thats when I want to do it.  I was looking at dates today and I’ve picked two.  One day in June of next year and one day in June of 2008.  I’ll get Stephens opinion on them tonight.

If we do it next June, that gives me about 2 and a half months to recover from mom and dads anniversary before the wedding.  That might be enough time.  I get the feeling Stephen doesnt want to wait 2 years and after thinking about it, that sure does seem like a long time to be waiting.  I dunno ::shrugs::  Im in no hurry, neither of us are going anywhere so why rush?  I want things to be perfect.  Downfall of being a perfectionist.  I know Im not going to be happy if I have to cut corners to make things work, either financially or time wise.  If I have 2 years to prepare, I can save money, I will have plenty of time.  In a year, with my sisters wedding and my parents party mixed in, I wont have as much time to focus on my own wedding or the money to do it.  I dunno…….we shall see.

Well, enough rambling, Im getting back to work.  ::picks up her handy dandy magnifying lgass::

Bye all!!
