    I'll have whatever the bartender is pouring as I'm more than a little bit miffed.

    Passed my driving test with one caveat - No night driving - I'm restricted to driving between sunrise and sunset only! I'm kinda pissed and upset. I commute to work; it's an 18-mile drive that can sometimes take an hour in bad traffic. Quitting time is 5:00 p.m. which, with winter looming can be past sunset! As it is I have to get up at 5:00 a.m. - I don't move too quick in in the a.m. - to leave by 7:30 to hit the road.

    I know management and the attorneys I work with don't want me to quit, so we're going to have to look at some finagling of my work hours - maybe no lunch hour during the winter months so I can leave while it's still legal for me to drive. Sheesh! This getting old(er) stuff sure ain't for sissies!

    That kinda *sucks*!

    How about a Car Pool??
    Instead of swappin days, you could swap SEASONS.

    And I'd talk to your eye Doc - see what HE says about your night vision.
    A note from the Doc might help get you cleared again for 24 hour driving.

    Meanwhile - eat Carrots!
    Join me in a glass of "healthy" Carrot Juze ... and hopefully we'll find something to
    mix in with it to kill the taste!

    Good idea! I WILL talk to my doc. I have an appointment in a couple of weeks anyway to check on my progress with the new drops. As for carrots, I DO eat them - have for years. It's cataracts and corneal scarring that's causing the problems. The doc hasn't said I need surgery yet, however she is watching me very carefully. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Gini, that breakfast menu sounds fantastic.Could we maybe have the
    same again tomorrow morning? The roofers are coming to my house bright
    and early, so I'll be up for sure.

    LH, Prayers for Jen to have a complete & full recovery soon. I'm so sorry
    to hear what she had to go through.I won't even get started on surgeon's
    mistakes here, but I know, believe me, I know.

    Could I please have a coffe & baileys now?

    Liz,

    One coffee and Bailey's, hold the partisan bickering for a while?

    DONE!

    To say we're a bit irritated with the surgeon, the hospital, and all associated systems would be an understatement.

    (the real joy is that I have to go in for surgery soon.............yep, I'm looking forward to that )
