Simple Life

Janie over at Sounding Forth has been on me to post. The problem is that I have nothing exciting, or even remotely interesting going on at the moment. I could blog about my never ending struggle with my weight and cholesterol, but who wants to hear whining? Not ME!!! I could whine about it raining EVERY DAY for I can't even remember, but I really hate to because sooner or later, I will be wanting some of this wonderful rain. I do feel for those who are being flooded out, luckily all my floods have been very minor. I could blog about my 18 year old Volvo's failing air conditioner and other parts, but why?

Today I went to the ophthalmologist for my three month glaucoma check up. This was the one where she does the field of vision test. I describe this as a kind of video game you play with one eye. For people like me who are challenged with eye-hand coordination, it is extremely stressful. All looked good, praise the Lord. No change in the field of vision test (which makes me crazy every year---I know I'm missing all these little lights), no signs of cataracts or macular degeneration, no problems with the retina, optic nerve is stable. All in all an excellent visit. I am grateful for a wonderful doctor who has worked hard with me to keep me on an even keel.

All in all, I am happy that my life is a trifle boring. I am one who resists change and find it excruciatingly painful at times. I am happy with my simple life on the circle.

Girl...posting is good! Cathartic! Freeing! There. Don't you feel better?

You've got tons of stories in you...Cuba; your mom; your sister; your awesome boys; your new daughters-in-law; your wild-man husband.

Get yourself out here to West Texas. And bring some of that more rain with ya! I promise, I'll give you plenty of blog fodder!

love ya
