John has his eye operation next week. I have had both eyes done, so while a worry, it is a common operation. so when that is over & he does the recovery drops etc it will be too late to do anything except rake leaves. but as far as health (well being) problems we are fine.
I hope that you have finally recovered from your virus attack. It takes a long time to do so.
