Last night when I went to work, I realized I wasn't seeing very well. Thankfully, I had a pair of reading glasses with me and was able to function. Eventually, I realized I didn't have my 'bifocal' contact lense on my eye. Hmmmm.... honest mistake I guess. (though I was puzzled) After I got home from work, I started checking out my contact situation, trying to figure out how I went to work without my trusty bifocal. I tried on four different contacts that I already had open and none of them worked. My first thought was that I had received the wrong contacts when I reordered last week. Upon further inspection, the only box of contacts I could find was my old box and they weren't bifocals. hmmm... what did I do with that new box of contacts? I searched and searched and searched. The trash was already at the curb for Friday's pickup, but I convinced hubby to retrieve the garbage can for me at 1:30 am. He and I sat in the garage and dug through baby diapers, coffee grounds, chicken packaging, etc. (you get the picture), looking for my new box of contacts. (he was gagging and I was giggling) Anyway, they were not to be found. As he took the garbage can back to the curb, I looked in a kitchen drawer, that I had already looked in two times before, and there they were!!! Am I losing it??
Not only that, I am very clumsy these days. I tripped over the dachshund on Wednesday, landing flat on my back in the kitchen. It scared the grandbaby and he cried. I went to visit my daughter last week at her new apartment and fell backwards over her end table when her huge dog jumped up to greet me. Hubby says I need to exercise to regain strength and balance. I'm thinking about rejoining Curves next week. Did I tell you I also hip problems?? How will I ever function at Curves?
Female things are happening and I am very scatter brained these days. Is this menopause? Will it get better when menopause is over.... say like .... ten years from now? Any advice? Any encouragement? Wow, who knew things could change so fast? :o(
