My energy is low right now. I have several fairly important tasks to complete before tomorrow morning, but after the tasks I completed this morning, I came home and slept. It's been my pattern for the past several days: a long afternoon nap, yet still plenty tired for a normal bedtime, up early for all the things, then crash again for the afternoon. I'm a little concerned, so I'm taking my iron supplements and trying to just sleep when I need it. I'm sure it will pass.

A Strange View

Sometimes I have so much to write about and so many other things to do that I get hopelessly behind, as I am now. So, I'm going to begin where I am and add in posts about the past weeks as I get photos organized and ideas captured.
One big thing that has happened to me is that my eyes have changed. I don't know if it's just the impending 47 in a few days or something else, but in spite of a new prescription for my glasses, attempts to change the lighting and positioning of my screens when I use them, and a LOT of muttering and complaining, I can only work comfortably in front of a screen or even read or knit for very short minutes at a time, then everything goes double. Everywhere. Yes, I am going to check in with an ophthalmologist, but in the meantime, all my screen time has been saved for work. And I've had work aplenty. With more to come. Which is a blessing.
But I miss my old eyes. Or my young ones, to be more precise. The ones before. You know what I mean.
So, here is Summer '13, briefly, through my new eyes. The ones that are now acting old. Because already I need to stop and look away.
