I took my first dump today on the bike.  I mized the angle on the sidewalk and /driveway and just didnt hit it straight on.  I’ve had a problem here before.  I’m okay but my peddle is bent and I cant ride.

Got to get this fixed. NOW

Someone recently told me that I use the word GREAT often.  I feel great, thing I do are Great, People I know are great.

When you put it into perspective, I am lucky and appreciate that fact.

I have a vision problem.  Theres no pills, no pain and its not fatal.

I am happy for everything I can do.  I’m not an unhappy person at the get go.  Many things are disturbing but if disturbing and frustrating are the worst I get in a day…..Life is GREAT.

The old joke is “What did Helen Kellers Parents do to punish Helen”?   Move the furniture”"..  Well, it really the truth.

And I am not completely blind.  But everything goes in the same place. ALL THE TIME.  My glasses go in the same spot or I cant see them when I go back for them.. I feel for them.  Same with the magnifiers, which are all over.  IN THE SAME SPOT.  Or I cant see it.   A black handle on a black table is lost.

Medicines,   big letters face out IN THE SAME PLACE. all the time. Vitamins with numbers of milligrams face out, in the same place. Its a guestion of memorizing your surroundings and keeping it there  when ever possible.

really quite boring……

My eye problems have a few benefits.  I get augdio tapes (BOOKS) from the Braille, which I would go nuts without.  I get in front rows at events…sometimes….And I get a telephone with large numbers free .  Well my phone died (nothing plastic lasts long anymore).  We are able to just take it back to the store for a new one.  The gal there, Helen, was very kool and got me phone that is way kool.  It talks to me.   She went over every button, every feature and  helped me get this ohone going.. It announces the callers..really Kool. thanks Helen…..

When I go into a store to use a coupon, I have read the coupon at home, under two magnifiers, and memorized what it is.  Or if its a preinted coupon I write in big letters on the unprinted side.  When I get to the store I get whatever the coupon calls for and lay them out in the order I have the coupon.    I am wrong on occasion, and  will take the item anyway, My  mistake will not hold up the line.  but most times I can remember.  Today the guy laughed, as i said  ” any one, any four, any one, and any flavor”   and then I couldnt punch the keys on the little machine.  They changed machine.    He did hlep me after I explained I could not see the little buttons or the little screen.  I had it memorized.
