Too Hot Too Soon!

I started June off by having eye surgery on my right eye. It seems the IOC that was put in 20 years ago

for cataracts dislodged and I couldn’t see clearly. This happened in May and took almost a month to

get everything in place for the surgery. However, it did not go as well as planned so this afternoon,

July 1, I’m having another eye surgery to have it repositioned. Hopefully this time will work! Today’s

surgery is supposed to take two minutes as opposed to the last surgery which was an hour.


Our oldest grandchild, Cerét and family moved to Idaho and June 5 they had a going away party at

their house in Mesa. We had a really good time and met some of their friends. 

It is hard to see them leave AZ!

It has been really hot for June reaching 117º and staying above 110º for many days. Of course since

then the NW has experienced temperatures just as hot and they are not used to such high temps! Really

grateful we are NOT in OR this summer! As a result of my vision being “two vision” meaning I see

two different views out of my eyes, I have not felt safe walking at night so have not walked for the last

month and really miss walking! (It has been too hot to walk during the day.)


Granddaughter Bethany and her new beau, Dax, made a one day trip to AZ to pick up the last of her

furniture and possessions. We all went swimming in the afternoon and then went to the Angry Crab for

dinner. The pool was really refreshing and we had a fun time at dinner getting to know a little more

about Dax. The consensuses was that he is ‘approved’.

Todd came for a visit on the 23rd for Father’s Day and he couldn’t have picked a nicer day! First off it

RAINED and the temp went down to 72º so we sat outside most of the time he was here as it was so

nice. We had a wonderful visit!

For the first time in a long time, Larry, Dawn and I won at Train (three different nights) as Vince

usually wins four out of five nights in a row. Makes the game more interesting for us but not for Vince!
