I can see clearly now...

...the glasses are gone!

On the 16th of April, I decided to undergo LAZIK laser eye surgery. Wow!

The worst part was walking from the waiting room into the surgery, but 25 years of glasses and contact lenses are now a thing of the past so it was worth managing those few steps.

It was an 'interesting' operation and one that took a while to get my head around, but my surgeon made me feel very comfortable and had it not been for his soothing voice and quiet confidence I may still be wearing those dratted spectacles! So thank you Dr M!

(ps these South African succulents are called Desert Roses and they look better without glasses LOL)

You know I love roses...

So if you're ever in the Karoo in South Africa, stop in for a cuppa out of the rosiest teacups I've ever seen...

Wish you were here


Well, a month of our 3 month holiday is already up, but we have been having a great time. The no sewing thing is getting me down a bit, but at least my body feels warm and my mind feels blank LOL

I have neglected this blog a bit, but then I am not always able to connect to the www... and when we're back to reality and I'm sewing again, I'll be blogging again I'm sure.

In the meantime, Ruth & I have been organising the release of Sonnja's bears and we hope to have some good news soon!
