Starting this pretty late today, at 10:19 am. Not really feeling like writing a blog post today, feeling kind of down after Alexandra’s appt. with the optometrist. She wouldn’t let them shine the light in her eyes to check her vision. They suggested we come back multiple times to get her used to the place, so I scheduled 5 visits. Hopefully, it won’t take that many. Maybe we should just try again when she’s older. It’s obvious that her right eye needs some correction though.
Yesterday highlights were meeting with a former undergrad student, Stephen Bergin, who is now a Neurosurgeon resident at Duke. Stephen was the most enthusiastic and productive undergrad researcher I had. We talked about trying to come up with a better spinal cage mostly.
Dinner last night was collard greens with turkey leg, green beans, and some chicken with green peppers. Very good as usual. After dinner, we took a walk and shortly after it began to pour on us. We waited at home for the rain to stop, then walked down to the playground. The kids played for like 5 seconds before we decided to buy a lemon cake with ice cream from the food truck.
