Good Morning everyone.....
Well..today is the day....it is now 5 AM and I can have no coffee...no breakfast....nothing...
Leaving the house at 6 am heading in for my surgery on my right eye.
No sleep last night...feel like a wet rock this morning. I guess a wet rock isn't too bad......
Surgery scheduled for 7 am and will give a report as soon as I get home again.
Hope your day goes well...

Man I hated those days, specially when I couldn't have my coffee. Not going to tell you I'll drink some for you either cause that just isn't very satisfying. I'll be thinking of you though and impatiently waiting to hear from you later. *smile* Yes, I said impatiently ... there are just somethings in the world that can't be done patiently ... this is one.
