WINTER 2010 GENEABLOGGERS GAMES

Update on status - I'v gotten no where!  Monday morning I decided to clean my air vents, stuck my head in the vent while cleaning  and got debris in my eyes while wearing contacts.  I have scratched my cornea and have been unable to see well.  My eyes are so swollen, I have been at the mercy of my kids and hubby for the last couple days.  I'm hoping to be able to read soon to finish up.  Doctor says no lengthy computer or reading.  I need to rest my eyes and recoup.  I'm going to do my best to behave and get back in the games!
