New Half-Bath
Well, it took almost a month (thanks kids), but the downstairs bath is finally finished.
This project taught me several lessons:
- Measuring twice before cutting is not enough.
- When holding a paint brush, your hand is not as steady as you think it is.
- Drywall anchors really mess up a wall, but it is nothing that a mirror can't hide.
- There is not a hole big enough that it can't be filled by caulk.
- Finally, I don't believe that anyone can actually use a coping saw.
Thanks to David for trying to teach me how to hang chair rail correctly. I'll get it one of these days.
I tried to find some pictures of this room before it was re-done, but apparently it was not a room that was photographed often. Go figure.

New Eyes!!
Well, it's the day after having a laser shot into my eyes, and I can still see. Phew.
Click here to see a picture of my new eyes. (Warning, this image is graphic)
Actually, the doctor said this morning that I am seeing 20/15, which apparently is pretty good for the day after.
There is hardly anything different from my perspective. There is a little dryness, but nothing more than an old pair of contacts, and I have a stockpile of re-wetting drops to help with that.
My eye was a little bruised from the instruments they use, but I was told that was normal, and will go away in a couple days.
A big thanks to my doc.
I was a little concerned when I saw that he used a hand held laser, but glad it all worked out in the end.

You want me to look into what?
It's almost time. Tomorrow I say goodbye to glasses forever.First thing in the morning I am heading off to this place to shine a laser in my eye.
I got the buy one get two free, deal. The "doctor" says he's done this procedure, dozens of times before.
Wish me luck. Hopefully I'll be able to read your comments afterward.
