Joy had her surgery and post op check...vision a bit blurry but now she can see...

I went to immigration trying to upgrade to long term visa as balikbayan...thanks to traffic we were late for the interview, and the guy wouldn't see us because Lolo didn't come along...

Will have to go back next month. Sigh.

Manila is starting to look like Christmas, with stars and decorations all over...traffic terrible as usual...Joy visited and brought supplies to two trade fairs...Chano is busy making capiz flowers for gifts ordered by a politician to give as presents...the place is chaos, with all sorts of people sleeping in all the rooms...and every time we think everyone is fed, someone else shows up to visit at lunch or supper time...luckily Dita usually cooks extra...last time we counted, we had five family and 20 help...more if the farmers are visiting...
