Glasses or Surgery

Elliot's eye doctor told us today that he will either require glasses or surgery for his wandering eye.

Not terrible news...we knew that he'd need something. But after walking 2 blocks in the torrential rain with Elliot in arms, arriving dripping wet in an empty waiting room for 30 minutes, then hearing the doctor describe Elliot's situation as "Bad" twice, I'm in a damn pissy mood.

Needless to say that we'll be getting a second opinion...less for the advice than for a little bedside manner. That goes a long way with me.

Another revelation: I need to invest in a rain coat and umbrella.

advise raincoat and happy rain boots.

I got some rather good information today on schools for you, so we need to chat. It made me feel hopeful, so perhaps it'll do the same for you.

So much for this week looking up, huh? I was doing some online browing for rainboots today. Of the happy variety Erin speaks of. I hope they work.
