work...work.....work

Why is it that when you are on weekend time can fly but when you are working time goes slow.

I think that is how most people feel but sometimes my weekends go by just a tad too fast. We at least have a nice long weekend coming up in October. I'm really looking forward to it because of a few reasons. One is that we will be traveling to OK to visit Ian's parents, or "Mama and Papa Faas" as we call them. The other reason is I get Ian for four whole days. Plus it will be shortly after my birthday and we will be towards the end of the month. Making our trip that much closer in Jan!

Then November we will be going to my parents for a long weekend for Turkey day. So excited about this. We will head to Kingwood on Wed probably around 11ish. Then we will head home on Friday and currently planning on stopping by the Ren Fest as we haven't been in 5+ years. Going to get discount tickets before going once we are sure we are going to go. I don't want to buy them unless we make the firm decision that this is a definite stop on the way home.

Then December we will have our work's christmas party in the middle of the month. Usually they have it around the 17th of the month. Will be cool to see where we have it this year.

Then we will be in Jan. Woot...

Ian sent the customer service people at Discovery Cove an email regarding their wetsuits and if they are available to be purchased in the gift shop for a souvenir and they said yeah.

Another major thing going on currently with us is Ian might be having the iLasik procedure done next Thursday. We were out getting the oil changed on my vehicle yesterday and while we were out he was like, hey lets go by the eye place I had found near us that we can possibly go to for our yearly exam. Set up appointments, and talk to them about the lasik procedure for me. So I was like, sure might as well get an idea on where it was. Well we went in to set up appt. and they were like for the initial lasik exam to see if you would be a candidate we could probably get you in within 15 mins. So we said sure as we didn't have to be home for another 3 hours before he had to go to work.

Well, they did the screenings and talked to him about it. So we said lets get the ball rolling. He had to be back there today for the comprehensive exam where they dialate the eyes stronger than normal to see how they adapt. It was like 8-10 times the strength of the normal ones.That was at 8:15 this morning. God we were tired...

He has an appointment on Friday at the place where the procedure will take place. They will do a similar screening to what they did yesterday. They will also talk to him about the financing as well. We can definitely afford the monthly payment we were quoted for 4 years. However that doesn't mean he will get approved for the money either. Only time will tell.

Once we found out about the healing process for the procedure we knew we wanted to have the max amount of time between the surgery and the trip. The more time the better. Especially since we have the dolphin swim and salt water tends to make you want to rub the eyes. Which is a big no no right after the procedure.

I think that is about it for now. I hope everyone is doing well.

take care.
