 Hi guys, welcome to another Vlogmas video. Always nervous about like what content I'm gonna get, but you know, Sherry always pulls through for me because she is a major supporter of the channel. She made this channel. She helped get us noticed. So she's taking one for the team. Valerie, you have two. She basically told her all, her coming out story. If I remember to, I will link it down below so you can watch. If you are new here, don't forget to subscribe. Also, follow me on Instagram. I feel like I've been forgetting to say that. So anyway, Sherry, you are now on camera. Hi. Okay, so tell us how your surgery procedure went. Well, I went very well today. I had, as you can see, I'm looking lovely tonight. This is a little plastic, I don't know, shield. I guess she would be the right word. Take to my face to protect my eye so that little hands don't scratch it or rub my eyes or anything. So I had my cataract surgery, otherwise known as lens replacement these days. So I had lens replacement surgery this morning and I just have to wear this and... How was it? Tell what you remember. What I remember, well, it didn't take very long once they got started. I thought, I felt like I was pretty awake most of the time because I could hear the discussions and the surgeon had on classical music in the background and I could see, I felt like I could see, they told me to keep both eyes open when it was happening. So one eye and it was forced open but there really wasn't any pain. The only, there was like a little stinging when they put the drops in to numb my eye. So that was, but it wasn't anything. I mean, it's like stinging like a little sting. It wasn't bad at all. And then they put drops in several times to dilate my eye. And then when I went into the operating room, they just put, it was almost like a big old bandaid that they put all around your face. It's like all like in, it's a little sticky around your face. And then they just cut a little hole where your eye is and that's where they work from. And then I just remember seeing, you said there's gonna be this like blue light and I saw the light. And it was almost like I could see like these three little white things going in and out. I don't even know what it was or how it worked or maybe I'll ask the next time because next Monday I'll be doing this eye. So it was, you know, it was fine. It didn't hurt. Once he started the procedure, it maybe took maybe 15 minutes. I think I was there at 8.30 today and I was probably out by 10.30 after the procedure. Most time was sitting in the waiting room waiting for my turn. So it was interesting to have a surgical procedure with my clothes on. They didn't put you in a gown or anything. I had anesthesia, but I think it was just, they didn't really call it anesthesia, but I know that that's what it was, but it was just relaxed me. And so I was, you know, relaxed. I asked her, how did you not blink your eye? But apparently they like paralyze the eyelid or something, I don't know. I don't know. I felt like I wanted to blink, but it wouldn't blink, but you know, I was relaxed. So it didn't only matter if it blinked or not to me. So it was fine. And when it was over, they wheeled me out the back door and Valar was there waiting to pick me up and then I got to go to Starbucks. And they were all out of almond milk. They were, I was gonna have a new drink that Alex told me about and I went to have that and they did not have almond milk. So I thought I would wait until I could have it exactly the way that Alex said was really good. Maybe tomorrow. Okay. So tomorrow I go in for a checkup in the morning. They'll take this off and look at my eye and then I should be pretty much good to go. Might be a little blurry or something for a few days, but we'll see. And then next Monday, second eye gets done. That's so exciting. It is exciting. But what's even more exciting? More exciting. Tell them, Sherry. I am going to get something of my very own. I feel like everything I have is either half owned by Valerie. It's a family thing or... Yes, and I don't know. So anyway, we have this joke that I don't have anything of my very own. So this year for Christmas, I'm getting a computer, not an expensive computer, but I really like to use Alex's Apple, but Alex uses it for work all the time. Now that for the last year and a half. So it's only not available to me when I want to do things. So I am getting something of my very own and it's going to be a computer. Yay. Take your computer, Sherry. Here it is. Oh, Christmas came early after her procedure. Freshly delivered. From Amazon. From Amazon. Do we have something I can like... Here, here, here. Wait, did I put the scissor delay? I probably shouldn't have sharp objects to use because I'm only using one eye, but whatever. It's your gift. So you have to open it, you know? Watches like not the computer. Not that we don't have enough boxes. I know. Here's more boxes. Exactly. Are we sure it's a computer? Yeah. This is a smaller box. Yep. I'll take that. Can I have a smaller box? Yay. But you have to be the one to open it because it's your gift. I know. It would be unfair to... I know. Okay. Wait, wait, wait. Oh, there it is. This part comes out. Then it lists up. Got it. We have all these like useless things in here. Well, it's to keep it. Keep it in. In. Oh, God, I hate these things. Oh, theory. The armpit's in there, then you can just pull it out. Yep. Okay, I'm sure there's a couple papers in there. I'm sure there's important papers in there that we'll need. But let's just get them good. You got the blue color? Did you pick the blue color? I'm not sure I got to pick the color. If I was allowed to pick the color, no one told me I could pick the color. Well, I don't know what colors they come in. I don't either. Maybe this is the only color. Maybe. Well, Valor got black. It was on sale. So maybe it was on sale. Oh, okay. Ooh, it's pretty blue. It's pretty sleek. It's kind of a blue gray. It's cute. Steel blue color. Ooh. Oh, I thought it would be more satisfying. Never mind. It's not very satisfying. Okay, this is what this looks like. Isn't it pretty? It is pretty. And lift it up like this. And look what it looks like. It's beautiful. It is very beautiful. You should be able to plug it in. I will be able, is that you plug and play? So hopefully this will just zip right in. I'll be able to do my, check my email and my bank accounts and my, all the stuff I look at on my very own computer. How exciting. Thank you, Santa. You're welcome. Where's the charger and stuff? Did it come with that? Is it in the box? You can have a charger in the box. That's why. No, I mean, that's an important piece. That'll be a very good thing. See, I don't, I don't really get electronics ever. So I would not know these things. It's good I have electronic experts here to tell me. Oh yes. There's another little section in the box. Oh, okay. Good, good. At the bottom here. I bet it has like a cord. There you go. There we go. Yay. I think, let me look with my one eye. Ah. I think that's the only thing that's in there. That's hilarious. And there's another paper. Yep. So, I hope you guys enjoy the unboxing. Look how tiny that print is. Yeah, probably not tonight. Windows in S mode. Yeah, probably not tonight. Teeny tiny little print, for me today. Valerie, it's Monday night. What does that mean? It means I'm cooking. Yeah. You can see she's thrilled. And we're getting rid of the freezer. So that's another good thing. The mothers are having these crab cakes. Cherry really wanted them. And since she had her procedure, it just makes sense that she gets what she wants. And then I, over here, am having my Sam mom. Beautiful. And we're all having broccoli and hollandaise. If you did see the price, Valerie wanted to let everyone know that they were on sale. They were on sale. Yeah. We eat a lot of stuff that I get on sale. Yes. All right, so here is my salmon. Look how cute she looks. And then I have my broccoli here and some flails that keep it warm. So, Cherie got some salmon cakes here. Salmon cakes and broccoli. And then Valerie over here. Crab cakes. Crab cakes and broccoli. Valerie customized everyone's meal. Yes, she did. She's shorter cooked tonight. Yes.
