Tuesday Tale: Charlie and Freddy

Charlie was quite a gracious host he even brought me gifts to the door.
LOL  He was my first experience with 100% out of doors cat.


Some of the print is too small here

Leaping frogs while I was distracted with food, someone helped Freddy Frog leap away


Update on cataract surgery RIGHT EYE!!
First off we have a funny ophthalmologist.
When he came into see hubby before surgery,..he said ok today is your 2nd eye.
I'm sorry I can't offer you today's 3rd eye discount..  LOL
He wrote hubby's initials above his right eye.
We waited longer for the procedure (2 hours we could've slept in longer)
I hope not to see O'Dark 30 again for a very long time.


Different symptoms w this eye.
It was running like a faucet. I engineered a solution.  I taped gauze under the eye to catch the running so he would not have to keep removing the clear shield.  I don't want him rubbing at that eye.  His throat is very dry from drinking nothing since 8pm last night until 10:00 this morning.  I bought a 1/2 gallon of Edy’s Neapolitan ice cream to help soothe all of the above symptoms.  Of course,  I will also eat some too in solidarity.
 Post op today at 8:30

  14. Ice cream cures everything. Mom says she could deal with Charlie bringing her a frog. Now a mouse would be a totally different thing.

    Hope the post-op was good. Ice cream makes everything better. Well, Lightning says almost everything:)

  23. Humor is good in a doctor. :) XO

  24. I suspect the doctor wrote hubby's initials over his eye to be sure they operated on the correct eye ! When I broke my kneecap, they marked it similarly, even though it was so swollen it would've been hard to miss.

  25. We purr that the recovery goes well...but with ice cream, it should. :)

  27. oh yes, ice cream can cure a lot of things and you must join in because you have suffered too right?

    Charlie, you are a beautiful kitty cat

  28. The hubby is lucky to have such a creative and helpful wife. Of course, any reason is a good reason for ice cream, right? We enjoyed the pictures and adventure of Charlie.

  29. That was awfully nice of Charlie to fetch a frog for you. LOL! Ice cream should be a prescription for any type of surgery.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I am glad the surgery is done and hope the post op went well. I was going to say that I hoped the ice cream helped. Silly me! Of course it did!
    That was thoughtful of Charlie to bring you a present.

  31. I hope the cataract is now gone and the eye is better!
    And Kozmo is the Frog catcher in our family! He always brings them LIVE!
    And trying to get them out of the house...not a whole lot of fun!
    Love Barb
