wow, it's been quite some time since my last blog.  life has been busy, tiring to say the least. tex has a eye doc appointment tomorrow. this doc will take measurements of his eyes.  this i assume is for the surgery and for picking what sort of lense to put in his eye.  i'm glad that something is beginning to happen with all of this.  his surgery won't be until july 24th.  this is such a long time for him to have to wait.  it is pushing him to his limits, and mine.  i guess i should have been an opthalmologist.  i could be making a fortune removing cataracts.  matt is recovering from a case of strep throat, at least we think it's strep.  he has responded to the penicillan and is feeling much better.  after 3 dates in 2 days he couldn't understand how on earth he could be so sick.  i'm just glad that he didn't contract mono.  that would have been awful. cory has been working her toosh off for the past couple of days. she is making bank and putting it all away. i'm glad that she got the "saving" gene.  i don't feel like i have to worry that she will get into a bad situation with her money.  she can manage it very well. the garden looks beautiful, thanks to tex and all the time off he has had.  he is really enjoying playing guitar with his new friend stu, and i think that when he gets his eyes in working order again, he should continue to take saturday off so that he can jam with stu. this is something that i think he has needed in life for quite sometime.  i'm happy for him. adrienne came over tonight to watch the celtic/laker game. one of her very good friends from 3 rivers died last night in a car wreck.  she was very upset.  too much tragedy in her life.  i'm sure she is missing juan right now also.  she is tough.  i have been so lucky in my life, that i haven't had many horrible things happen. so anyhow, i'm getting pooped and will sign off now.  until next time.
