Not selected!

My second try at jury duty ended the same as the first - I was not selected. I was kind of grateful that that was the case as the trial was anticipated to go five or six days starting immediately after the jury selection process. So, my civic duty has consisted of two visits to the Nashua court house and waiting around over half the time. But, hey! The money is good. I'll clear $50 for my "efforts".

My eyes are maintaining the status quo. That means that they are not getting any better and my right eye is still blurry. Nighttime driving can be a little challenge but so far-so good and at times my wife has driven under such conditions. I'm not chauvinistic enough to think that I have to do all the driving.

My mother-in-law returned home tonight after three days and I know that she had a good time even though we don't do much other than eat and watch movies on television. But when you are almost 93 that seems to be entertaining enough. I have news for you; when you are 67 that seems to be enough entertainment as well!

Tomorrow(today, actually) is a luncheon at the Currier for all of us docents and then my week is free. I have a few ideas. As "they" say "Idle hands are the devil's workshop".

I guess that the eye situation is still one of watching and waiting...
