Stuck in a Furrow

I love the snow. I even kinda like this weather, until I leave my warm office that is. I was so excited this morning to get to pull my toque out of storage. It is a toque that I bought on my first trip to Africa. It says Bafana Bafana, which I think might have something to do with the South African soccer team, since there is a soccer ball on it. It is my favourite (and only) toque that I will wear. Now, I have uber flat hair, which isn't so pretty. Ruby also started this morning...on the first try and without needing to be plugged in. She is a trooper although she did do a bit of complaining with the cold weather. I think that deep down, she loves the winter. I went to my eye appointment this morning to make sure that my diabetes isn't causing me to go blind. I hate having my eyes dilated and then they had to put anesthetic in for this new test. Have you ever had the puff test? I hate the puff test, with the air blowing into your eyes. I think it tests for cataracts. This new test was like a giant pen that she would "poke" at my eyes. Thank goodness for the anesthetic although the nurse admitted to me that there really isn't that much anesthesia in the drops, but if people think there is, then they relax more. How very sneaky. Anyhoo, my eyes are good. No retinopathy (good medical word) there although there is some redness and inflammation. That means glasses for a few days to give my eyes a contact-break. Blah. Now I will have to deal with foggy glasses when I come inside.

I have a job interview this afternoon. Here's to hoping....
