Mom spent the day getting herself back into the routine of home.  When she woke her eye was pretty swollen and black and blue.   She called her doctor and discovered that she was not in today.  She'll call back tomorrow to get a referral for an orthopedic doctor to look at her thumb, and to see what she might need to do about her eye.  In the meantime, she called the hospital in Montgomery and has them sending the x-ray electronically to her doctor!  It's great to live in a time when it's so easy to transfer information. 

This evening she had a joint session meeting at church and she doctored up her eye so that she wouldn't look so beat up.  She put a skin colored band aid over the stitches, and then used a heavy hand with concealer on the area of her eye that's so bruised. It's purple and blue both above and below her eye.  Except for the swelling, it did look a little better after she got done with her make up!
