The Effects of Eye Surgery

Brandon had eye surgery on Friday. We arrived at the doctor's office around 1:00 p.m. and we were walking out of the door around 1:50 p.m. and Brandon basically had 20/20 vision - AMAZING!!

After the surgery, the nurse pulled us into a softly lit room and gave us a bag full this stuff:

She also gave him strict instructions to use ALL of the eye drops at least once a day, most of the 2 or 3 times a day. She also told him he must go home and take a nap to let his eyes rest. Then, she said he needed to take it easy for the next 5 days!! So, this weekend, we've been doing a lot of this:

The irony in all of this is that Brandon doesn't feel bad. He feels perfectly normal, except for the fact that his eyes feel like he's been a pool for far too long. So, if you know Brandon at all, you know he's still been his ornery self, while trying to milk this "recovery" for all its worth!! If he doesn't want to do something, he tells me he has "...doctor's orders to sleep."

Now, in his defense, his eyes have been pretty sore today, so I've been giving him a little slack. But, Koby and I have been so bored. You can just see it in Koby's face, can't you??

My boredom resulted in this:

A clean kitchen :) (Among other things like clean floors, clean laundry, a picked up basement, etc.)

I also remembered to take a picture of the new couch! We ordered the matching love seat last week and it should be here in a few weeks! What do you think?!?!

All in all, it's been a pretty relaxing weekend, which has been good for all three of us! Brandon has to take tomorrow and Tuesday off work as well and then goes for his final check up on Wednesday. I'm sure Koby will enjoy the extra company.
