Is That a Light I See at the End of the Tunnel .....(or an Oncoming Train???)

I think I can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel.....no.....that's not a metaphor.....not a simile.......I mean the actual light!

I am down to wearing a mere 3 pairs of spectacles  and using only one or two magnifiers.  (You can tell I am somewhat better because I have compulsively attended to my typos,,......)

This has been 3 weeks I intend to blot out of my memory even if it takes a lobotomy.  Urgh!

Don't give up on me, dear ones..,,,,,,I WILL be back.

Sunday Update

Still in a fog but I think it is clearing a bit.  My eyes look better.....they just aren't seeing much better, but I do believe things are improving.  My opthamologist is sure he has made the right diagnosis and says I am much improved.  Glad one of us is optimistic.  But today I discovered that things are much clearer before I put the eye meds in..........I guess if I really want to recover I can always stop using the meds .........

I intend to attempt to "watch" 3 football games today......I am SO glad they describe what is happening verbally............

All 3 Cats Fail Typing 101

Nope ........teaching is not my long suit nor is learning to type the cats' strength, obviously.  Oh well, it was a good idea.

Still struggling with my eye ailment. Seeing (?) doctors almost daily.....no one agrees about quite what it is or how to fix it.  Am slightly better in the left eye but I really need it in my right.  Am just slogging onward, hoping for the best.

Thank you all for your good thoughts and  prayers.  I luv 'ya.

sunday

Hi darlings.....just a quick line  to let you know how much your encouraging words mean to me.  Thank you all a million or more times.

I think I am a little better...of course, both eyes have now got it, whatever the hell "it" is.  Two high class eye specialists are  still scratching their heads and prescribing more and more "cures".....Ha!

There is some improvement........going to doctors almost daily....it will probably cure itself before they figure it out. I am in some misery but not as bad as before.......oddly, my spirits are not too  low.....I must really be crazy but I am hopeful.

Will keep you updated.  Am teaching the cats to type.

Lo Finally Kvetches

Beware my darlings......You may not want to read any further.   I am getting close to the end of my rope.

I have frequently mentioned, with tongue in cheek, (how did that expression ever get started?)  that it  becomes a full time job for us old folks to tend to all the body parts that keep breaking down.  No longer have tongue in cheek.......I need it protruding slightly to enhance the decibels of my scream and shriek....eeeeeeeeeek........aaaarrrrrrrrrrrgggghh.........shit, piss fuck!

I have fallen into the clutches of yet another ailment........a severe eye infection.  The good news is that it has stricken me in my bad eye.  The baaaaad news is that  it can spread and  I suspect that it may be  settting up housekeeping in my good eye too.   Sigh.     If that should happen I will not be able to blog till it clears up enough for me to pry the eyelid open so I can sort of see the monitor.  I am  already on so many meds lined up here, left and right, that I cannot see the table top on which my laptop rests and unless they really begin to work  soon I fear I am doomed to a blogless spell of undetermined length.  And, of course that means that you all will suffer because of my malady......what a bummer.  There actually is a disadvantage to the internet.........A hundred people or so may be feeling deprivation  because of my malaise.  Sob.

So sorry.  (however, there are a gazillion other blogs out there to keep you tittilated so I don't feel too guilty).

I will try to keep you posted.   If necessary I will dictate a few words for Florence, my caregiver, to enter for me.

Too bad I don't have Seeing  Eye Cats.........

Monumental Frabjous Blog Day

Can a person be proud, grateful, amazed, sheepish,  tickled, embarrassed, pumped up  and humble all at the same time? 

It seems one can because that is how I feel on this amazing day which happens to be :

         *          the one year anniversary of my timid and feeble entry into the blog world

                      and

       *            the day I acquired my 100th follower

I am too overcome by emotion(s) to blog today.  The only words in my vast vocabulary which come to mind are

Thank you All so much..........I love you dearly...........
      and aw shucks........
