Like the trip we had almost two years ago, tonight we’re in the Phoenix Inn hotel in Lake Oswego in preparation for our daughter’s corrective eye surgery tomorrow. Pretty much anything I would say is covered in that previous post; the only details being different really are that my daughter is six and it’s her third (and hopefully last) such surgery. And I’ve taken today, Wednesday and Thursday off from work for it (back on Friday).
On the positive side, we had a really excellent dinner at Piazza Italia in Portland’s Pearl District; we got to try some cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory at Washington Square; and we’ll be doing a Trader Joe’s run sometime before coming back on Thursday. Anyone need anything from TJs?
That little Italian place is SO good. I’m jealous. That place and the dim sum place in Chinatown make me want to move to Ptown.
I hope the surgery goes well. I know those ophthamologists (if you’re going where I think you’re going) are the best.
Hey Jon,
hoping for the best with your daughter’s surgery. It is nice how many things doctors can fix nowadays. i had corrective eye surgery for my vision about 7 years ago that allowed me to put away my glasses. only recently have i had to wear them again (a lot thinner lense now too), probably from staring at a computer for 8+ hours a day 5 days a week.
