Yesterday I wrote about needing night driving glasses as I felt my night vision has deteriorated. I mentioned I needed a new pair of glasses for computer work.

Good news. Both issues can be solved.

Bad news. I have cataracts which will need surgery.

I’m feeling happy that my vision can be restored, but nervous about surgery to both of my eyes, a week apart.

It’s another sign that every part of my body is aging.

Caelin has a new skipping rope. I tried to show him how to skip. I used to skip “pepper” for 2 minutes less than 7 years ago. It was a skill I could show off at circuit training. Now I can’t get both feet off the ground at the same time. I hate losing something I was good at! Getting old sucks! I suppose it’s better than the alternative.

Thanks for reading.
