I’ve been racking my brain, trying to think of something to entertain you. The best I can come up with is a public service announcement: “Take Care of Your Vision.”

This will help you avoid some of my experiences, including:
– overflowing the water revisor in my Keurig
– putting spaghetti into the pot and missing
– wearing different shoes
– mistaking body cream for body wash
– people thinking I’m winking at them, when I’m just trying to focus
– flooding resulting from: pouring drinks, filling watering can, filling the fish tank
– grocery store: running into others, misreading labels, inability to self-checkout
– jig saw puzzle: can’t tell if the pieces really fit
– misuse of screwdriver and other tools
– mishaps sewing and other craft making: they deserve a blog all to themselves.

To refresh your memory, for the past 3+ years I been living with eye surgeries and continuing anomalies. Apparently, I have an autoimmune disorder that affects only one eyeball. Thankfully, I have much resiliency, fortified by a great sense of humor.

The life lesson I am learning: Be thankful for what you do have. My right eye still functions well, and as I sit on my patio this morning, I’m communing with nature, my plants, and humming birds. May you also find something to be thankful for this Monday.
