My eye exam went well and I now have answers to my double vision problems. I have been diagnosed with Fuch's Dystrophy, which is a problem with the corneas, but can be remedied with simple surgery, if the condition worsens. However, for now they have given me a new glasses prescription, which I have ordered and should be done by Friday or at the latest Monday. I will be able to continue my trip after that.
Meanwhile here are some pictures of what I have been busy with. Miss Izzy had her spa bath in the kitchen sink. She is so good, just standing in there and letting me bathe her.

(the bow lasted about 2 minutes)
Of course Tuesday was a very memorable day; the nation's choice of our next president. I did not watch TV myself until late that evening. I just kept texting my daughters to find out when anything new happened :) Then after falling asleep, I woke about 2:30 am with the TV still on, and saw the result at that time. I was glad to see it end and will be praying for wisdom and strength for our new president and for our nation as a whole.
On Wednesday I went into Paducah after a few things I needed and while there I visited the National Quilt Museum. The quilts were exquisite and very artistic. I was drawn to the ones that were nature scenes and western themes. Taking pictures inside the building was prohibited, however I took a few outside of the building and surrounding grounds. This was the back of the building where there was a small parking lot.
Beautiful stained glass windows in quilt design on the left side front of building

That's all for today. Next time will be photos of some of the older buildings near the train museum and the art wall that lines the river.
PS, I now can reply directly under your comments, so please be sure to leave one!
Thanks for stopping by!

Good luck with the new glasses. Sometimes I have double vision problems but mostly when tired and I keep a second pair of glasses in my car that help the problem. Nikko is good in the bath too but would never fit in the sink ... I have to strip down and go to the shower with her. Izzy is looking lovely even without the bow I should think.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the glasses will help your vision. Izzy is such a good girl. Fred would sit still to but whine like crazy haha. I love quilts and I can never understand why some places don't allow photo's. the stained glass windows are gorgeous love stained glass.
