Mal's Eye Surgery

Mal had his eye surgery yesterday.
Everything seemed to go smoothly,
although the ride home was a little bumpy and long.

This is the "before" picture from Christmas.

You can see his eyelid is more open after surgery.

Today he's looking a little swollen and bruised.
Next week should be better!

Frozen peas are the order of the day...

I'm Dreaming of Spring...

No, my tulips aren't blooming.
But I'm dreaming of them!

The weather has been really mild, the snow is melting and

I am in the deceptive state of believing spring might really be here!

I look at my backyard, half-filled with snow,
and I can just see the blooms!

However,

I have to steel myself for the possibility (probability?) of this!

More Basement Renos

Mal installed a sink in the guest room downstairs. First one to come visit gets to initiate it!

We now have a functional shower, toilet and sink in the basement. But you can't initiate the shower because Mal has been using it just for the novelty of it!

This is the sink in the washroom. As you can see, we still need to get a mirror and medicine cabinet. Other than that, it's pretty much done!
Next step is to finish the closet in the bedroom with shelving, clothes hanger and bifold doors.
