Anschauen (or Ow. My Eyes!)
I have missed blogging and Facebooking. I have really nasty eye strain. I think it is a mix of being elderly and probably needing bifocals, being on the computer more than I normally am, and who knows what else.
Here is a picture of my retina. Maybe you can tell me what is wrong? (This is my actual retina, not some picture I grabbed off the internet. I would tell you how I got it, but that’s a longer blog entry.)
I spend a fair bit of time like this.
It is pretty boring. I have found that I can use the elliptical machine with the eyepatch on as well. I am very talented (har). I hope to be back to regular mayhem sometime soon. If you could pray for me, I’d be most grateful.

Oh poor you! I have no idea what a retina is supposed to look like, but I can tell you bifocals aren’t the end of the world. I’ve had them since I was about 23. (Actually I probably just needed reading glasses then, but thanks to good salespeople I got bifocals.) I just got new ones this year, and it is great to be able to see to cross-stitch again!
I’ll pray for you too.
@LadyoftheManse - Thank you!!!
Hope your eyes are feeling better soon. Thanks for keeping up the blogging. Tell James we missed seeing you guys at church today.
being on the computer more, yes. possibly needing bifocals, yes. being elderly, not a chance! besides, that would make some of the rest of us post-elderly, or something like that. but please do rest your eyes, so you’ll soon be feeling up to writing all those interesting xanga blogs again.
