I just do eyes!

Wow more eye drama!!  So on Friday I was doing a follow-up appointment with another eye specialist, thought it was just for photo imaging of the eyes and consultation but turned out, I was getting injections INTO MY EYES!!  I could see for a bit and tried to drive home but nope, so I pulled into some place as soon as I could and tried to wait it out for like an hour. I had no idea where I was and I could smell food and hear people going in and out. So I get out and go inside and asked, "where am I?" and I was at Panda Inn apparently. I asked if they could call me cab because I had to get home as I was dog sitting for a friend and worried about the dog. You can NOT get a cab anymore! After at least 2 hours, no cab showed up and at that point, I could kind of see my phone, I re-enabled Lyft and one came in 4 mins!! I got home and the dog was good (I left at 1030 and got home just after 5!). So after awhile, I was concerned with leaving my car at some random place overnight... I thought my eyes would be better after a couple of hours but nope... but it was dark now and I could open them for like 10 second at a time. I thought, I'll see if a neighbor with 2 drivers wouldn't mind helping me to get the car and since they are coming back to the same place, it be easy! Could not find a neighbor to help, they were either no one was home or just one person. I did find one neighbor but she was only one as her dad had degenerative eyes and can't drive at night but said if I could find someone else, she would be the 2nd. After awhile, no one but I thought, I could get a Lyft back for both of us and she could drive us back and that worked!  But wow... what an ordeal.

Weekly Update:
So with all of that going on, not too much else happened but just dog sitting a friend's dog who is the most chill puppy (not really a puppy) as long as he isn't by himself.  He has separation anxiety and it shows but if someone is around, as calm as can be!  And for the most part, listens well.  He looks like a Corgi Bernese mix but I don't think he is actually either one.  I say Corgi because he has short legs and is kind of stalking when he walks around, it's cute and funny.  Has very strong Bernese colors but I think they said he was something else but forgot.  But, he's a good dog with a cool name, Miso.  Very food motivated but let's be honest, who isn't for the most part.  But now he's familiar with me and my house, I'm sure I'll get to dog sit for them again and spend more time with Miso when I can fully see again too!

At the movies:
New at #1 is Mercy with 11.2 million to open but we continue with one of the slower seasons as both film festivals starting and more award shows take place for last years film products. Dip down to #2 is Avatar: Fire and Ash with another 7 mil as it continues to make it's way to 400 mil cume and on track to make it. Holding on to #3 is Zootopia 2 with 5.7 mil more as it crosses the 400 mil threshold and will not get that much further but quiet an accomplishment!  Holding at #4 is The Housemaid with 4.2 mil extra and will slowly drop out as new films open. Drop down to #5 is 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple with 3.6 mil and a big 71% drop, this franchise and film are pretty much done.

New movies that did not make the top 5:
Just one coming in at #7 is Return to Silent Hill with 2.7 mil and opening on just under 2k screens so not a very good per screen average and will be done and out soon.
