susandennisToday looks blessedly boring. At least as far as I can see into it today. I have my swim class and then my weekly work conference call. And that's it so far. Nice.
One thing I think I am going to start research on today is cataract surgery. My vision has deteriorated in the past few months. There's a clock at the pool that was easy to see last fall and now not nearly so easy. I really need my glasses way more than I used to. Last year, no glasses, I used to be able to prop my phone up on the dining table and read it easily. Now I can't even read the Fire tablet that easily from that far.
Plus, I've already cleared my insurance deductible. So it seems like a good idea. The clinic where my cute doctor is has an ophthalmologist who's webpage says she does cataract surgery so I'll start there. I went to her several years ago and was not impressed but that was for glasses/contact lenses and I should have been going to an optometrist anyway. I like the idea of staying in the clinic for stuff - billing/etc wise.
My insurance for glasses/lenses vision check does not kick in again until May 1 so I probably won't do anything serious til then so I won't have to worry about the possibles. But today I'll make the initial call to find out what the first step will be.

It's weird to have the computers in different places. Several times I've sat down at the desktop and really felt disoriented about working on it. Usually my mind is rock solid about what is on which computer and what each's proclivities are but now that they are in different places my mind is all confused. I do not like it. BUT, it will be that way for at least another month and it will get worse before it gets better so I need to get off my tuffet and deal.
Now I think I'm going to get off my tuffet and get another cup of coffee.
