Eyeball This

I check my email constantly throughout the day, from the moment I wake up to the last moment before I go to bed. I'm a real email junkie! To be sure, part of this addiction comes from not having much else to do all day long. Part of it also comes from being lonely, as I explained in an earlier post. Maybe I should buy myself a child on the black market or order a bride from Russia.

All my medical insurance lapsed as of this most recent Monday. I won't claim to be the healthiest person, but I have not been to a hospital for myself in well over 20 years. It's just not something that I do. I always 'tough things out'. Except, as a 40th birthday present my body gave me declining eyesight. I have been in the habit of going to see the eye doctor every two years since then. Ironically, I was supposed to go again in September, but as I was feeling financially poor, I delayed the visit. (Even after insurance, my last pair of prescription glasses set me back about $250.) Have any of my faithful readers ever used the cheap eye exam services out there? If so, let me know what you think of them. My current glasses, though two years old, seem to be holding up well, but the prescription probably needs a slight adjustment by now.

Hmmm, I don't seem to have anything fun to write about tonight so I guess I'll close this off.

Love hearing from you!
