Quick Update for Interested Parties

Of all things, an unexpected case of pink eye has kept me from skating so far this week. I went to the doc and was given antibiotic drops for my poor red eyes, but I did look like something from a Halloween 19 movie! Not very attractive and quite itchy. Of course, the first thing you are directed to do is toss any eye makeup you were using prior to "the pink" attack, so this required me to purchase new make up. This is probably a good thing as I think mine was years old!

I am well enough today, however, to go to a Japanese quilting class sponsored by the Roseville guild. Looking forward to being with these ladies and making the celestial quilt for Dear Husband.

I had lunch on the day I discovered my pink eye with some great friends from a company where we all worked some time ago. It was wonderful getting together with them and swapping stories (and some much-needed girl gossip - MEOW!). Must be a real sign of maturity that I went without any eye makeup at all. This is a first for me - that being, going out in public this way, let alone getting together with friends. I'm sure I looked a sight, but they were kind enough not to stare at me in horror.

Finally, tomorrow is a BIG skate day. Have a 9:30 lesson with Coach J, then my dance lesson with Coach C. I couldn't go to the rink on Wednesday for my regular lesson due to my eye condition, so I am happy I can go tomorrow, complete with eye make up I hope.

Onward we go. Hope everyone is having a good week. I am SO ready for the fall season, but hear it is going to 100 degrees next Monday. Just when you think the season is really changing, you are treated to another Sacramento summer day. Ugh. Hopefully, this will be the last heat wave for us.
