Try to look at the tip of your nose - your eyes will cross
Paul's surgery went well. We were bumped for an emergency so we ended up waiting for an extra 2 hours. The dogs were definitely ready to go out by the time we got home !
Now the problem will be trying to keep him from lifting anything for 6 weeks...
Oh, so glad, Kelly, that everything went well. But difficult for Paul not to lift anything for such a long time. Is he an obedient guy, who does what the doctor says? Mine is NOT. So I had always to keep an eye on him and grumble. Hope you'll not have this duty.
About crossing eyes: Aha, you mean squinting? I already thought, Bob must have eyes on long stalks, which he then can put one over the other outside the head, like when we cross fingers.

No, it's not squinting. It's when both eyes point inward. Put your finger on the end of your nose. Now look at that finger with both eyes. You will have crossed your eyes.
You will see it far better if you ask someone else to do that and then watch their eyes.

Kelly, good luck with Paul!
When I had my shoulder replaced, I found it almost impossible to follow that particular instruction. I was much better when people were around me yelling at me to "Stop that!" LOL

It looks pretty funny!
Cross your eyes at something a few feet away and you'll see two of everything.

Yup ... once you get the hang of it by looking at your finger on the tip of your nose, then it's much easier to do it without that "aid."
Remember those books of pictures (Magic Eye books) that look like nothing but a random pattern, and then you hold it up close to your face and kind of loosen your eyes and a 3-D picture forms? This topic reminded me of them, and I went looking on the internet, and there they are, with "picture of the week," and instructions for viewing, and printable ones ... http://www.magiceye.com/enter.html
