I’m late to tell you again, but I came back home!

Well, I skipped this summer, and I almost skipped October, too.
It has been getting chilly recently.
Anyway, I got home from this latest stay in hospital on Sunday, October 22nd.

Even though only one of my eyes has trouble, I have been feeling that many things became inconvenient. Now I know how much I had depended on my eyesight! Even though I’m badly near-sighted, I miss the good old days. Until I get proper eyesight, for the next few months, I will have a lot of bother. Aa–ah.

As for my recent events:

1. While I wasn’t home, our small kitten Hachitaro became more than 2kg. An eighteen week old cat (about four months old) is bigger than we thought.
2. With a pounding heart, I went to the hospital for my first outpatient visit since staying there, and it was all right. But I will still be scared of my eye condition for a few months, until it becomes stable.
3. I thought drinking would not be good for my eye, so I decided to drink water with supper. Our supply of Vals, the French mineral water that I got before at a reasonable price, ran out. So I bought major brand water: Contrex ‘fines bulles’ and Perrier, one case each at first. Because we are mineral water beginners, I don’t know what I like to drink! (A case of Contrex arrived today, but the Perrier didn’t come yet.)
