We went into Erie today because Evie had work done on her gums, something that is over, fortunately. It seems to have gone well, though I know she will be in pain for the next couple of days. Hopefully, it won't be severe, and it will be quick to heal. Outside, the road is beginning to thaw, as temperatures are in the 50's, for tomorrow as well, then it gets cold again on Saturday, just in time for the Mayville Ice Festival.
We had our usual Wednesday dinner of wings and sweet potato fries last night and strangely, the VFW was crowded, with a birthday party going on, as well as other large groups. We actually had to wait an hour for our food, as everyone seemed to be ordering wings as well.
Had breakfast this morning with the boys; there were four of us, Stan's back from Florida, only Dick Redington is missing in Florida. We talked quite a bit about trips, especially those Joe took to Big Sky, where he fishes some of the greatest streams in the US for trout. Charlie is heading to Arizona, Phoenix then Sedonda for a week, and Joe heads to Florida on March 7th, the last day of his radiation treatment. Stan's back for the duration, it sounds, as he's a father of two young'uns and they need his attention. I think he might prefer to be in Florida.
It's getting dark, as the long day wanes; just pureed some vegetable soup for Evie, the first thing she has eaten since her surgery. So far, she has been able to manage the pain. Let's hope it works well through the night so she can sleep. Ice certainly helps her and if she can eat a bit, it will also be helpful.
